Another relaxing home show guzzling brews with the boys.   Local comedian and beer lover, Jeremy Brown, joins the round table for an evening of beer and nonsense . . . a bit of hating on Budweiser(I know, what’s new?).   The boys kill and review numerous brews, some from their #1 craft beer delivery service, Tavour, and a few others from around the Midwest.   The show ends with a mighty chocolate boom from a California brew that was the highlight of the night.

After hanging out at Pies and Pints 2019 earlier this year and Jordan & Griswold stopping by for some happy hour libations the week before, we were finally able to get the Pigs together for a visit to Mashcraft Fishers....and it was well worth the visit.    We walked up to the counter, looked at the board and said...."We need one of each".  That's where the fun began.  We greedily took flights of every beer they had on the menu.  Everyone was especially astonished by the IIPA LUPU Imperial IPA boasting a 10.1% ABV but you would never guess it was a 10% brew and we had to double check we had the right beer.    We ran through the gamut of beers on tap and eventually David the general manager joined us after getting back from another event they had been supporting in the community.   Tune in to hear all about the many tasty, clean brews and then stop on in to wet your whistle and dine on some of the great food also available at Mashcraft.   Shout outs: Blakes Cider, The Bier Brewery, Pies and Pints, Briarscratch, Kopacetic Beer Factory, BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse, Untappd, New Holland Brewing Company, Anchorage Brewing Company, Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery, Jonathon Mullens, Final Gravity, Great Fermentations, Taxman   After the show, start filling your own Tavour crate at https://about.tavour.com.    Cheers!   Be sure to check us out Sundays on Indy In-Tune. www.indyintune.com   Members of the Hopped Up Network.

Pigs at 10-56 Rerelease We are re-releasing our recent show at 10-56 Brewery due to some editing issues which we have since cleared up(thanks to our wonderful IT piggy, Pauly G). We had too much fun with some of the most creative and all around nicest brewers in the biz, Mike and Erica. They do too much and give back too much to the community to not show them the respect due that we have for them. So, tune in and get your butts out to 10-56 Brewery in Knox, IN to meet the fine people there and enjoy some fantastic craft brews.   Shout outs:  Tippy’s;  Greenbush Brewery;  Starke County Humane Society;  American Foundation for Suicide Prevention   After the show, start filling your own Tavour crate at https://about.tavour.com.    Cheers!   Be sure to check us out Sundays on Indy In-Tune. www.indyintune.com   Members of the Hopped Up Network.
