Episode 464 - Lagers In Wood

It's not just stouts, barleywines, and sours that should receive the benefits of wood-aging. For our final episode of Barrel-Aged December, we try five beers from breweries brave enough to take their drinkable cold-fermented beers and let them rest in different types of wood for any matter of time. The results are truly unique and enlightening as to how wood can transform a lager, and we bend our elbows with almost too much confidence for the night. Also, there's motorized-cart mayhem in the grocery aisles, weather-based clothing gets a rebranding, and we play a soundbite-based game of Name That Wood. Happy New Year to all - and thanks for listening to us at any point in this past one.  Beers Reviewed Forbidden Root Brewing Company - Hoodie Weather (Oak-Aged Vienna Lager) Werk Force Brewing Company - Rip Cut (Oat Lager aged in oak puncheons) Solemn Oath Brewery - Foederface (Foeder-Aged Märzen) Begyle Brewing - Foeder Doppelbock (Oak-Aged Dopplebock) Waypost Brewing Co. - Keptwell (Bourbon Barrel-Aged Lager)
