  8. Episode 73: Down The Oregon Coast

    The boys (Glenn Crim, Chris Knapp, and Bob Moffitt) go down the coast of Oregon metaphorically for this episode, understand what it tastes like to lick a pirate, free O.J., get boneless wings (not real wings!), debate the merits of Applebee’s, mix beers together to see if they might be salvaged....

  9. Episode 72: TMi-ller Lite

    Sometimes, recording an episode is not as easy as it sounds.

    On a day only Hades could love, Bob, Matt, and Trace trudge across the Sacramento desert looking for stouts that had just been judged at the State Fair. Only one brewery was bold enough to show up with a stout. And, as the Bible says, "It was good."

  11. Episode 70: Will Work and Bleed For Beer

    Brewing ninja Rico Sanchez from 1850 Brewing talks chocolate and coffee skills while Bob bleeds on himself and Clarence wonders if his blood would go well with a nice chiante. There are a couple of excellent grades to be had. Hope you can find them at your local bottle shop.

    Weirdness abounds with visits from the spittoon fairy and Al Pacino. The beer is definitely different, too.

  14. Episode 67: The Easter Bunny Hid The Lost Tower Episode

    2022 was a crazy time. Tower Brewing had new brewers. The Easter Bunny was hopped up on goofballs and Covid meds. Seven pretty good beers including the 300th in the history of the Stoutcast!

  15. Episode 66: Pinch Glenn. It’s St. Patty’s Day!

    A non-alcoholic beverage, a much-anticipated sasquatch-related beverage, Jason Bateman, and Maltodextrin make an appearance in this episode. That's four to grow on.

  16. Episode 65: It's All About The Washingtons On Presidents Day

    Bob and Chris' efforts to rate two really good beers are interrupted by rampant capitalism. It's symbiotic since it's Presidents Day.

  17. Episode 64: Ignore The First 90 Seconds. We Dare You.

    Three excellent ratings, some 80's rock samples, a plea for can art, and olive belches. There is something for everyone.

  18. Episode 63: 1850 Five Years Later

    There have been a lot of episodes posted since the last tine we were at 1850 Brewing in Mariposa. Some things change. Other things, like 1850 makes pretty good beer, do not.

  19. Episode 62: Juneteenth At Oak Park Brewing Co, Sacramento

  21. Episode 60: An Alley Airing Of Grievances

    Ep 60 Final_mixdown Bob Moffitt/Stephanie Erikson So much to disagree about and so little time. Fortunately, The Alley in Mariposa, CA has a time and a place to settle these things. It’s called “Festivus” or “Days That End in “Y.” Beer and baseball have gone pretty well together for a couple...

  22. Episode 59: Touchstone Brewing

    Ep 59 Touchstone Bob Moffitt, Paul Nunez, Ryan Campagna Climb for a couple hours and then have a nice refreshing stout to replenish when you come down. Photo by Bob Moffitt.

  23. Episode 58: The Beer Gods Make A Visit

    On a cool and blustery night, two men gathered in the woods and sang the praises of the beer gods whilst demon hounds ran through and spirits were conjured through a wind chime.

  28. Episode 53: New Helvetia Deep Thinking

    Last time we came to New Helvetia in Sacramento, we stunk up the joint with some skunky beer. This time, we brought the goods. As fun as learning about old beer was last time, we may have had even more fun this time.

  29. Episode 52: So So Pretty

    This interesting flight features Bellhaven Black, Allagash North Sky and Evil Twin Biscotti Break and, of course, our interesting hosts.

    Match Game, The Great British Baking Show and The Funky Bunch supreme leader all are part of the conversation in this episode, which also features two new members for our "Best Of" list. The answer to the Match Game question is roasted malts. Why? What were you thinking?

  31. Episode 50: Back On Campus

    The big 5-0 has hit in more ways than one and we are back on campus in more ways than one. Celebrate the beginning of Season Four, much like Season One began: with a beverage from David Weiss.

  32. Episode 49: Stout And About Mashup

    For a couple of years, the Stoutcast founder has been hiding in corners of bars recording his thoughts on stouts while his family wonders why Daddy takes so long to pee. He may or may not have been accused of being a federal agent and/or a spy. This is the result of those efforts.

  33. Episode 48: Let Us Bend Your Ear One More Time

    The Oregonian suds fairy, which is a close cousin of Sasquatch, gave our gentle tasters more than a dozen craft-brewed stouts to ponder. They've pondered and this is the last episode of that series.

  34. Episode 47: Deep In The Heart Of Texas

    Whilst the Dodgers and Braves battled nearby in Game 6 of the NLCS, the Moffitt/Wards battled the elements: lack of respect for ranch on pizza, helpful ale house staff, and the irresistible urge to throw down some cornhole, while one of our merry band discovered that some stouts might not be that...

  35. Episode 46: His Nibs, The First-Ever 11, And 200 Beers!

  37. Episode 44: Beer in the street, Big Hair and the Two J's

    Filled to the brim with pop culture references, this episode might remind you of the time Jack Nicholson got his nose sliced open. Possibly the worst flight ever on the cast. But man, we had fun doing it.

  38. Episode 43: Stout And About Migration

    Bob and Glenn find a hidden gem of a stout in eastern Portland in this mini episode.

  39. Episode 42: Jenny, The Covid Made Me Drink Some

    It took a lot of effort to get four beers to five people in three states without infecting anyone. And then someone drank half the beers.

  40. Episode 41: The Red Bus Beer Lab Is A Ride With Style

    This light-hearted episode takes Bob down one road he wasn't expecting and another road he doesn't know if he wants to visit. Great insight in craft brewing can be found on a '68 Volkswagon.

  41. Episode 40: Knee Deep Honesty

    Brewers love to tell you how great their beer is. They should. They're usually right. But not Knee Deep's Chris and Dean. They tell it like it is and give some pretty unique insight along the way.

  42. Episode 39: A Roman Theater Musical At Crooked Lane

    We don't have enough musical interludes in our episodes. That complaint can be made no longer. And no, the Titanic will not be included.

  43. Episode 38: Self Isolate This! From Oak Park Brewing

    Who needs a laugh? We did! And we got some with this episode, which was without a doubt the most difficult to set up and produce, at least since the first one.

  44. Episode 37: Muerta De Chancla

    To many people, a chancla is simply the Spanish word for flip-flop. But in many Spanish-speaking households, the thought of a chancla used as hard foam, plastic beating device brings shudders.

  45. Episode 36: Don't Leave Vegas Without Swinging By Tenaya Creek

    Party time in Vegas with four stouts, two from Tenaya Creek and two from Mother Earth leave our host and guest deep in thought amidst the lyrics of Hall n Oates swirling in their heads.

  46. Episode 35: Capitol Beer Fest 2020

    Eleven stouts in a skosh over half an hour. Not a clinker in the bunch, but a bunch of nutty beers.

  47. Episode 33: There's A Party In The Monks Cellar

    Ohhhh, there's some fluffernutter goodness to be had, the first "Excellent" ratings of the year and Todd feeds his first stout to the Stoutcast cat.

  48. Episode 32: A Dog On A Bike Shall Lead Them

    Several years ago, Guinness was about the only stout on local supermarket shelves. But then Bike Dog's milk stout landed in the refrigerator and confirmed our suspicion that you could introduce dairy, or something like it, with the malted goodness that make a stout.

  49. Episode 31: Birthaversity

    Two years ago, the Stoutcast's creator celebrated a birthday by co-hosting the first episode. It only took five months to post. Fast forward and you're getting this inside of a week. Mammoth, Sierra Nevada, Alesmith and Lucky Luke are put through their paces.
