Episode 315 - 1840 Brewing

Back in July, we were lucky enough to spend a little time with Kyle Vetter at his 1840 Brewing in Milwaukee (which you can hear on our Brew City episode), and since then we've been dreaming about getting five bottles to the bunker for review. Craig's recent travels bring us a wide variety of styles from this two year-old brewery, and at least one of these beers will be written into the ABV Hall of Fame for eternity. The whole lineup offers an array of big flavors, and we are already planning our return to Milwaukee. Also, Craig ponders a sympathetic Godzilla, Ryan's been working on some disturbing fanfiction, and we almost get the podcast taken away from us. Ponder your pastry.
