Episode 573 - 11 Year Blind: Old Faves

To recognize our 11th year of releasing this weekly podcast, we're putting a new spin on our annual half-blind shows by…going old. We each divvied up the past years of the podcast and selected one favorite from a year until we ended up with seven to try and stump one another while we dig through our memories. Some represent fresh takes on old faves, and some are just old - which doesn't necessarily mean bad. Also, we talk about a cult Chicago landmark in Craig's neighborhood; Ryan no-scopes a few blind guesses; and Craig calls in a favor to make his secret blind theme work.  Beers Reviewed  Brouwerij De Brabandere - Petrus Aged Pale (Foeder-aged Belgian Sour) / Episode 240 - Belgian Sour Starter Pack (9/5/18) Flossmoor Station Restaurant & Brewery - Wooden Hell 2017 (Bourbon barrel-aged barleywine) / Episode 198 - FoBABlin' 2: FoBABlin' in the City (11/8/17) The Conrad Seipp Brewing Co. - Columbia Bock / Episode 379 - B-Sides (5/12/21) Flipside Brewing - Rascal King (English Pub Ale) / Low ABV 414 - Flipside Rascal King (8/19/24) Wild Onion Brewery - Drago 2018 (Bourbon barrel-aged Russian Imperial Stout) / Episode 117 - Midwest BA Stouts Blind (4/20/16) Cruz Blanca Brewery - Rey Cuvée 2024 (3-year blend of barrel-aged imperial stout) / Episode 457 - Cruz Blanca Luchadors 2022 (11/9/22) New Glarus Brewing - Wisconsin Belgian Red (Sour ale w/ cherries) / Episode 74 - New Glarus Fruit Beers (6/24/15)
