Toronto Beer Podcast

In today's episode, Mandie and Chris are LIVE ON LOCATION at Beau's Oktoberfest. It is noisy, windy, and they are shouting the hell out of a Blue USB microphone, but it's the usual romp. Fake Norwegians, wicked infections, beer, and the business of running a festival. Get it in you! Prost! Huge thanks to Dine Alone Records for letting us jump on their wifi to upload today's episode.

In today's episode, Mandie and Chris talk about what's happening for both of them, home brewing, the best parts of running a brewery, more on sexism in brewing, their first IPAs (sort of), the LCBO growler fills, and Left Field's NEW SEASONAL BEER! This is also the last episode of season one. We're taking a little break, and will be back with an episode for Toronto Beer Week.

In today's episode, Chris and Mandie talk about recent festivals, another great podcast, a crazy 1990s vintage beer tasting neither of them could legally attend, a list of the 20 best beers in the world, entitlement in the craft beer scene, lots and lots on sexism, both in the world and in the Toronto scene, and their upcoming plans.

We're grumpy today, but we work through it. Talking depression, weddings, drunken poor behaviour, Toronto's Festival of Beer (times like a billion), bros, and upcoming fun and excitement.

In today's (quiet) episode, Chris and Mandie get caught up, talk about Muddy York (they're noisy), Aggregate beer rating sites and using Untappd, their average scores of their favourite IPAs from last episode, all that noise about Left Field, raising kids around beer, and some of what they've got going on. Now quiet down over there.

Chris and Mandie get all caught up, talk more Wrigley, then get into the hops. Are we getting desensitized? What are our favourite IPAs? Then talk some summer time events. Good times had by all!

In today's show, Chris and Mandie get all caught-up and talk about their respective trips; Mandie geeks out on baseball and Chris gets personal about pens; they talk about what they're drinking, what they're loving and the CBAs; *gasp* cloudy beer, "Ontario Pale Ale", and poor craftsmanship, aka "The Gossip Circle", OCB Week and their plans, our FIRST CONTEST, and catching up with @LeftfieldWrigley.

Chris is sick and miserable. Getting caught up, then lots of talk about beer sales, growlers, Chris hates social responsibility, clean up your empties/stuff found in returned bottles, what exactly is "craft", the Molson Indy is The Molson Indy again, more on beer sales, the Left Field day trip to Buffalo, and Chris' trip to Ontario' Southwest.

In the inaugural episode of the TorontoBeerPodcast, Chris and Mandie introduce themselves, talk about their plans for the summer, and things get political.
