A festival of delights was had in South Bend, Indiana when the Pigs had the pleasure of spending a glorious evening filled with friends, conversation, live music, and some of the best craft beer and bourbons around.
Casey Dvorak, Manager and craft beer expert of the LaSalle Kitchen and Tavern, invited the boys in for drinks and to learn more about the history behind this special place. Everyone in the city knows The LaSalle Grill is the place in town to go when you want to experience some of the best food and wine in the Midwest. Some still don’t know about the surprise you’ll find on the third floor waiting to temp your senses. The LaSalle Tavern has all you need for a great night out on the town from the cozy ambiance to the killer food, a wicked top shelf Whiskey and Scotch selection, live music, and of course, carefully selected craft beer.
Tune in to hear some of the unique history surrounding LaSalle as the gang enjoys some of the finest craft beer and whiskey finds from Mr. Casey Dvorak.

The Pigs spend and entertaining evening once again at Tippy’s in Winamac, IN.
Dougy’s main squeeze, Mikki, jumps in again to review some brews and the Pig’s bodyguard, Griswold brings along his better half, Becky, to keep him in check.
The gang was in for a treat as Tippy’s was taken over by New Belgium Brewery. New Belgium Ranger, Lisa Kerman, delights their palates with some old favorites and some fresh suds new to the Pigs such as the delicious Black Lager. Lisa gets into some history of the brewery as well as some future goals before going off the rails with some buzzed up, entertaining conversations including some bad alcohol memories and cat pee brew.
A Tippy’s regular and local brewer jumps in at the end to help take this one out.

The pigs head to Bier Brewery north to meet up with Uncle Jerry. We start off with some sexy yet oddly disturbing conversation. We soon turn our attention to the fantastic lineup of Beers that Darrin the head brewer of Bier has whipped up. We discuss their brewer again and come to a realization…He is elusive like a big foot, could Darrin really be sasquatch? Uncle Jerry leads us through their exciting new awards and their new taproom.
