Joseph Emswiler aka Proper Hops
Welcome to a long-overdue Chad’z Beer Podcast. In this episode from around 2010/2011, I sit down with Joseph Emswiler, better known as Proper Hops TV. Joe was one of those BeerTubers that built a big following with daily craft beer reviews, sharp production values, and a real enthusiasm for the...
-
James Knott of Better Beer Authority
One of my favorite BeerTubers from the early days was "Better Beer Authority." It was a roundtable show run by James Knott. He actually built a TV style studio in the basement of his house and produced a beer review show that would look like something you'd see on your local TV station. I…

Northern Southerner Beer Reviews
It's been a LONG time since the last new episode of Chad'z Beer Podcast. I'm hoping to bring this back to a monthly show for 2026. And the first guest of the year is Jon Brown; better known as Northern Southerner Beer Reviews (just don't ask me why his handle is @brownale1000 ha ha). JB's been a...
-
Seth Wright of Beer Nation
There have been a number of "brewery tour" BeerTuber channels going all the way back to the early days of YouTube. Beer Nation (not to be confused with Beer Geek Nation) was one of those channels, and IMHO, probably the best of its era. Seth Wright was one half of this channel. In this podcast we...
-
Chad'z Beer Reviews Last Call
Cristina joins me for a two hour live stream as a way to say goodbye. We review "Deth by Ramble" by Revolution Brewing and then B.S. around for another 90 minutes. We had been considering starting a podcast for a while (it would have nothing to do with beer) so this was kind of a pilot episode…

Winton the BeerTuber
You've probably heard me use the term "BeerTuber" A LOT, right? Well, I didn't coin that phrase. All credit is due to "Winton The BeerTuber" who was one of the more popular BeerTubers in the Golden Age of BeerTube. He originally went by "BeerichiTuba" because he was part Japanese and he played…

Alan Mackenzie of One Flight Down
Continuing with my series of podcasts with Canadian BeerTubers, this episode features Alan Mackenzie of One Flight Down. This channel features Alan who lives and works in the heart of Winnipeg. He started his channel in 2021 to combat boredom during the early days of COVID. Not only did we talk...

Deanna Fox
This week's archive edition features Deanna Fox. We were acquaintances through the Albany foodie and craft beer scene back in the 2010s. Both of us had blogs on the website of the Times Union (the biggest newspaper in the Capital District). I just looked her up on LinkedIn and she is now the head...
-
Drew Watts aka "Beer For Breakfast, Facts For Snacks"
Drew Watts aka @BeerforBreakfastFactsforSnacks is one of the most popular Canadian BeerTubers of late. He started his channel in 2020 at the height of COVID. Since then he has gained a pretty strong following with over 700k views in just 5 years (wow!). I sat down with Drew (while he stood) and…
more -
Ben Harris aka "Just a Beer Geek"
I'd say the "Golden Years" of this channel (and BeerTube in general) were 2010-2015. At the time, I was writing a blog for the Times Union newspaper in Albany. I met several other local beer bloggers and brought them in as contributors to the TU blog. Ben Harris was one of them. He ran a blog...
-
The Halifax Foodies
I follow a lot of accounts on Instagram of beer and food influencers from all over the world. So it's not surprising that the algorithm matched me with Bre and Shannon; two food and drink enthusiasts from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Bre is currently in the Canadian Navy and I was in the in the...
-
Madison Smith-Levine aka @WinoBeeroFoodo
Madison Smith-Levine aka @WinoBeeroFoodo was one of the first Lady BeerTubers back in the Golden Age of BeerTube. She posted pretty frequently and she knew what she was talking about as she had an extensive education in food and nutrition. She's worked for wineries and breweries but now owns her...
-
Andy's Beer Reviews
One of the most underrated BeerTubers in the UK, IMHO, is @AndysBeerReviews . Though relatively new to the BeerTube scene, he's amassed over 1000 followers. His beer reviews are concise and to-the-point. This podcast was anything but, LOL. We chatted about many topics including BeerTube…
more -
Paul's Beer Reviews
One of the biggest channels to come out of the UK in recent years is @paulsbeerreviews . Much like Simon, he's gained a wholly organic large audience just for being himself. In this podcast, Paul tells me what lead him to craft beer, to social media and how BeerTube lead him to his current job....
-
Mark Starr aka "The Grand Ole Hopry"
If you were around for the Golden Age of BeerTube (2009-2013) you probably remember Mark Starr aka "The Grand Ole Hopry." He was based out of Kansas City and was one of the first BeerTubers to review "whalez" like Pliny The Younger, Founders KBS, and Bell's Hopslam (those last two are now…

Matt Stewart
One of my favorite BeerTubers from the Golden Age was Matt Stewart. He was a bearded beer lover in the Miami area at the time. I can't remember how I found his channel, but I do remember appreciating his honesty and light hearted/every man approach. Matt and I did a few trades and he was the…

The Old Rasputin vertical vs. horizontal aging experiment
Have you ever heard it's better to cellar beer vertically rather than horizontally (like wine)? The theory behind is that a bottle stored upright has less surface area exposed to oxygen whereas a bottle laid down on its side increases that area massively and will oxidize quicker and more...
-
Ryan Reschan (aka San Diego Beer Vlog)
Ryan Reschan started out as a BeerTuber known as "Stumpy Joe Jr." Later on he changed it to "San Diego Beer Vlog" and became a member of the Beer Geek Nation network. Ryan and I did many collab reviews and several trades. Thanks to him I was able to get a lot of Russian River sours and wilds and...
-
Shaun & Mike of Nerdsense
I can't believe it took this long for me to finally meet and collaborate with Shaun and Mike of @NerdsenseReviews . They're big into comics, sci-fi, Kevin Smith, and other general geek culture (hence the channel name). Oh yeah they're also nerdy about beer. We talk about all these things and more...

The Master of Hoppets (archive edition)
This week's archive edition features one of the most prolific BeerTubers, @TheMasterOfHoppets . I first discovered Peter when I did a search for reviews of Duff Beer (yes, the beer from The Simpsons). This was still early in Peter's YouTube career (probably 2009 or so). Him and I collaborated on...

Mrs. Real Ale Guide

The Imasofats
One of the first channels I ever started watching on YouTube with regularity was @Imasofat . They were (and still ARE) a married couple in Upstate New York that make videos about random and fun things in their life. At some point they started making beer reviews and that's probably when the…

All The Beer, No Idea
One of the most popular BeerTubers to come out of the UK in recent years is Barry Lee aka @allthebeernoidea180 . I can see why, he's very personable, honest and funny. He does all his reviews off the cuff with little or no editing. I sat down with Barry to talk all things beer and plenty more...

Hops and Brews
Jon Shubin is the man behind @HopsAndBrews - one of the most popular BeerTube channels to emerge in the last few years. Hops & Brews started out as a pretty standard BeerTube channel, but Jon eventually started doing many experimental type videos that have gotten massive views; such as freeze...
-
Mark Sinderson aka BikeBeerBBQ
If there was ever a BeerTuber with an ideal URL it was Mark Sinderson who originally started out his channel as youtube.com/videobeerreviews (so accurate and right to the point!). He later changed his handle to @BikeBeerBBQ across all social media. I always enjoyed his channel because he was (and…

Chelsea & Liz of "Body By Beer Podcast"

-
Max Spang aka "Snobby Beer"
This week's archive edition features one of the lesser-known BeerTubers: Max Spang aka "Snobby Beer". I remember being impressed with Max's production skills which were pretty advanced for the 2010-2013 era. I interviewed Max for my channel in August of 2011 and he had me on his show about a…

Is BeerTube Dead? (featuring Mat from Massive Beers)
Recently, a few UK-based BeerTubers have made vlogs wondering if beer reviews on YouTube are still needed and if this niche we call BeerTube is dying. I've actually had similar thoughts lately, but I wanted to get another seasoned American BeerTuber's perspective, so I asked Mat from…

Paul & Michelle from "Rate My Beer"
Paul and Michelle have only been BeerTubers for less than three years, but they've garnered a pretty big following on their channel @ratemybeer1 .
