You may have noticed we haven't been very active podcasters lately. While it's true that we took a bit of an unexpected hiatus, we are BACK and ready to go.
In this episode, episode 240, if we are counting right, we are going to discuss what we have been up to lately, the burnout trap that creators sometimes fall into, and what you can expect from us and the show in the future.

Earlier this month, Joe attended a bottle share with the 513 Craft Brew Facebook group at Third Eye Brewing in Sharonville to celebrate the release of their collaboration beer, Meanwhile in Sharonville.
Bottle shares were once a key part of craft beer culture, but they're not as common today.
In this episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, we discuss:
- What bottle shares are and why they matter
- The essential items to bring to a bottle share
- Our thoughts on Meanwhile in Sharonville, a barrel-aged blueberry raspberry maple syrup stout.
Plus, Joe shares a sneak peek of his guest appearance on Blake the Brewery Explorer's podcast and Caroline apparently has a sound clip on a show we've never heard of!
What We Are Drinking

"Rise and shine, we're having pancakes for breakfast! In collaboration with the 513 Craft Brew, we're serving up a mouth-watering delight of berry pancakes in the form of a delicious barrel-aged stout.

Now, where's the whipped cream? Contains lactose peanuts and wheat."

America's second "golden age" of craft beer started taking shape back in 2012. Breweries opened on every corner, beer nerds lined up for exclusive releases, and taprooms became the heart of local communities. It wasn't just about beer; it was about community.
However, as the market became more saturated and the growing consumer base became older and more health-conscious, beer releases became less and less popular.
And then COVID-19 happened and changed everything. Post-COVID, bottle releases still occur, but they aren't as popular nor as frequent, and most places let you pre-order online. Bottle releases became less about the community and more transactional.
According to the Wall Street Journal, 20% of adult drinkers are responsible for 90% of alcohol sales. Meanwhile, the Surgeon General of the United States issued a new warning about the effects of alcohol, and Gen Z seems to prefer alternatives like non-alcoholic beer, mocktails, hop water, and cannabis over craft beer.
There's no doubt about it: the way our society views craft beer has changed significantly over the last decade. How are craft breweries navigating these industry headwinds?
In this episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, Joe and Caroline share their thoughts on the current state of the craft beer industry and how consumer habits are shifting. Plus, Joe shares his Dry January experience and they try Hop Water, a growing non-alcoholic alternative.
Supporting your favorite craft breweries doesn't have to stop just because you're not drinking. Many breweries offer delicious food and non-alcoholic options -- make sure you support them during Dry January!
🍻 What We're Drinking

Our non-alcoholic episode series during dry January continues this week. Joe and Caroline try several varieties of alcohol-removed wine by Fre. They discuss the process of making alcohol-removed wine, the price point, and the overall popularity of the NA beverage market.
Remember, if you are participating in Dry January this year, you can still support your favorite Craft Breweries, even if you aren't drinking. Many places offer food and non-alcoholic options. Support local, drink local, even if it is not alcoholic!
What We Are Drinking
Sauvignon Blanc
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5%
Pairing: Enjoy this crisp, delightful beverage on its own or with goat cheese, pesto chicken, and grilled fish.
"FRE alcohol-removed Sauvignon Blanc offers fresh notes of green grass, and soft, tropical fruit aromas. With each sip you will find bright acidity with delicious passion fruit and mango flavors, classically characteristic of a California Sauvignon Blanc. The slight dry finish will leave you reaching for another glass."
Chardonnay
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5%
Pairing: Try this Chardonnay with seafood dishes, roasted veal chops, creamy pastas, salads and mild cheeses.
"With its deep golden hue, and lively tropical fruit aromas, our alcohol-removed Chardonnay is elegance personified. Rich, creamy apple flavors mingle with crisp citrus notes on the palate, leading to an enjoyably tart finish."
Merlot
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5%
Pairing: Herb-crusted lamb chops, hearty stews, juicy hamburgers and pizza.
"With its plush, luxurious taste, and gorgeous garnet color, our alcohol-removed Merlot delivers plenty of style and grace. With seductive black plum aromas and soft cherry and spice flavors, our Merlot is velvety smooth, with a full, rich finish—a classic beauty."

January is a unique time of year. It signifies a fresh slate and new beginnings. It's also cold and snowy, and it presents the perfect opportunity to slow down after the hustle and bustle (and perhaps overindulgence) that the Christmas season sometimes brings. For some (including Joe), it may also mean giving up alcohol and becoming healthier.
In this week's episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, Joe and Caroline dive into the history of Dry January, list some of the options that are available, and discuss some of the benefits and drawbacks.
Remember, if you are participating in Dry January this year, you can still support your favorite Craft Breweries, even if you aren't drinking. Many places offer food and non-alcoholic options.
What We Are Drinking
Joe
NA Helles
Weihenstephaner
Freising, Germany
ABV: 0.5%
"Particularly at the beer garden or on a hot summer’s day at the lake, our non-alcoholic Original Helles pairs well with simple meals or a hearty salad – a refreshing alternative anytime. The fermentation process is not halted early, but rather the beer is allowed to fully mature. Only afterwards is the alcohol removed by means of a process developed with the Technical University of Munich-Weihenstephan, the same one used for our non-alcoholic wheat beer."
Caroline
Home brew from Elijah Moreland

Seeing a local craft brewery shut its doors is always tough, but this hurts extra hard. In this episode, Joe and Caroline pay tribute to Taft's Brewing Company.
Taft's Brewing Company opened its doors on Opening Day in 2015 in a beautifully renovated church in Over-the-Rhine. They were named after the 27th President of the United States, William Howard Taft, originally from Ohio. President Taft was a heavy-set man. According to urban legend, he got stuck in a bathtub at the White House. Taft's Brewing made this urban legend part of their brand. Over the years, we witnessed their growth. They started to can and distribute their beer and opened two additional locations, one in Spring Grove in the Cincinnati suburbs and one in Columbus.
Taft's beer and taproom spaces significantly impacted our "craft beer" journey. Caroline met friends there to knit, and Joe went there as part of his joint bachelor party. It used to be our go-to spot for dinner if we went to Over-the-Rhine with friends on the weekend. When they opened their Brewporium on Spring Grove Ave, we took our kids there to watch the trains while eating pizza, typically after we visited the Cincinnati Zoo.
Due to COVID, hard economic times hit everyone. Unfortunately, they were forced to close their original location in Over-the-Rhine on November 25, 2023. About a year later, they announced the closure of their Columbus location. Their third and final taproom, their "Brewporium" on Spring Grove Avenue, will permanently close on December 29, 2024.
However, this isn't the end of the road for the beer. Their beer will live on through CinBev, which purchased the brand earlier this year. Taft's beer will join other classic Cincinnati brands such as Christian Moerlein, Hudepohl, and Little Kings as part of CinBev.
Times are challenging right now, especially for the "little guy." Please get out there and support our local businesses!

Zywiec Porter
Baltic Porter
Zywiec, Poland
ABV: 9.5%
Original Zywiec Porter with thick creamy foam. Brewed since 1881.
Zywiec Baltic Porter owes its intense color and distinctive taste to four types of malt.
“This excellent stout, brewed in Zywiec since 1881, is a brew for connoisseurs. Its flavor and health-giving properties have been known and appreciated by generations of beer lovers.”
It's been 25 days in the making, but Beervent season is over for 2024. Thank you for coming on this journey with us this December. We hope you enjoyed listening as much as we had fun recording. The Craft Parenting Podcast will return...eventually.

La Moneuse Spécìale Noël
Brasserie de Blaugies - Belgique (Belgium)
ABV: 8%
"A very festive and hardy holiday “saison” home-made at Belgium's smallest family brewery. Extra rich for the holiday season. School teachers Marie-Noelle Pourtois and Pierre-Alex Carlier have together come up with the formula for great traditional brews. Their hearty, flavorful, and sometimes exciting styles are all made in their tiny garage brewery.

On the twenty-second day of beervent, Higher Gravity gave to us…
Jungle Boogie
Pale Wheat Ale with Rooibos Rea
Marz Community Brewing Co. - Chicago, IL
ABV: 5.7%
“Jungle Boogie isn’t your typical wheat beer–which is why it consistently ranks among the top wheat beers in the country. Instead of a light and bready cracker profile, Jungle Boogie uses a grain bill of mixed wheat to provide a body of light caramel and amber sweetness. That sweetness provides the platform for the fruity Rooibos tea to build a tower full of ripe stone fruit. Finishing the fermentation with a minimal dry hop of Mosaic further buttresses the fruity characteristics of the tea, while providing a lightning rod to unite the whole with a vibrant current of bright flavor. Light and colorful, Jungle Boogie is the perfect beer to pair with almost any dish and a welcome libation to both longtime fans of craft beer as well as those averse to overly malty or hoppy brews."

Welsh-Style Winter Warmer
Gilligan's | Wyoming, Ohio
ABV: 8.2%
“This winter warmer is brewed with the traditional Welsh sweet bread, Bars Birth, in mind. Akin to a fruitcake, this bread is baked with dried fruits and spices, but also a large amount of black tea. By using dried fruit, warming spices, and Earl Grey tea, this beer is a great homage to Welsh tradition and perfect for the winter season.”

This week’s episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast features a very special guest who knows a thing or two about craft beer (and sometimes parenting). The Gnarly Gnome – a Cincinnati-based craft beer blogger, podcaster, and YouTube creator known for his Oktoberfest Quests and being synonymous with anonymous – joins Caroline at Voodoo Brewing Co. in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio.
They discuss a wide variety of topics, including the recent devastation of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee, the evolution of the craft beer industry, the journey from starting a beer blog to launching multiple podcasts to a YouTube “show” that’s not a show (or is it?). Plus, they also talk about the exciting revival of Cincy Beer Week, Big Cis, and much more.
This episode was recorded at Voodoo Brewing Co. in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio.
Remember, Cincy Beer Week kicks off on Friday, October 4, and goes through Saturday, October 12. What is Cincy Beer Week? Cincy Beer Week is a celebration of all things craft beer, especially community, education, entertainment, and collaboration. The goal of the week is to bring the things that made us fall in love with craft beer back to the forefront, get us into bars and taprooms together, and hopefully bring a smile to your face. Get out there and support your local breweries. For more information, visit: https://www.cincybeerweek.com.
About the Gnarly Gnome
I drink. Sometimes after I drink I like to write about it. Sometimes I make videos too. Cincinnati beer is my focus, but you never really know what I'll be talking about. Spirits? Cocktails? Wine? I'm most definitely an equal opportunity drinker! Host of Cincy Brewcast, Drinking with the Gnome, and The Weekly Pint. Learn more: https://www.thegnarlygnome.com/.

Four Fours
Equilibrium Brewing - Middletown, NY
ABV: 8.5%
Collaboration with J. Wakefield Brewing, Other Half Brewing Co., Vitamin Sea Brewing
Four Fours is based on the popular mathematical pastime that uses exactly four 4's to form every integer from 0 to 50 using only standard mathematical operators such as: +, −, ×, /, and, √. Getting everyone together to make one of our biggest collabs yet involved piecing together some of our favorite ingredients in new ways and we’re happy to report that both the math in the beer and on label check out.
We started with a heavy base of oats and wheat before the Idaho7, Citra, and Citra Incognito whirlpool. We then dry-hopped with 4 of our favorite hops at levels never seen before with Citra, Strata, Galaxy, and Zappa. Dense haze pours into your glass with aromas of tropical mango, orange tang, assorted berry, and grape drink. Hoppy saturated flavors of dank mango orange juice smoothie, papaya chunks, and green nerds candy are balanced by a hoppy bite and giant #EQjuice melon finish bringing you right to your next sip. The glass gets emptied quickly so we recommend you pause the puzzle solving while enjoying our latest banger!

Old Engine Oil - Black Ale
Harviestoun
ABV: 6%
Down your tools and take a swig of this classic craft stout. Beautifully engineered with premium roasted malt for a velvety mouthfeel. It’s proper vintage stuff. All thanks to the meticulous handiwork of our master brewers.
This dark and rich stout was first created in 1999 for a well-known supermarket beer competition, which it won with resounding success. Ever since it’s been a much-loved beer by the brewery and customers alike.
Brewer’s Notes: As soon as you arrive in the car pack you know Old Engine Oil is being brewed from the aroma. The blend of malts and hops produce a balanced bitter-sweet beer with smoky notes and lingering finish.
Hops: East Kent Goldings, Fuggles, Galena
Malts: Lager Malt, Pinhead Oats, Roast Barley

What We Are Drinking
Li’l Tripel
The Lebanon Brewing Company - Lebanon, Ohio
ABV: 7.5
Black Walnut
Belgian Imperial Stout
Raised Grain Brewing Company - Waukesha, WI
ABV: 9.6%
“A clean and complex stout with notes of chocolate, vanilla, and coffee from Begian malts and candy sugar. World Beer Cup 2018 Silver award American-Style Imperial Stout.”
Biere de Noel
Belgian Style Dark Spiced Ale (ale brewed with spices)
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 10.4%
*“A special treat for the holidays, this Belgian-style Winter Ale is a deep ruby color with a tan head. Fruity esters from the Belgian yeast bring to mind aromas of plums and bubblegum, while playing nicely with the spices used in the brew kettle. Full-bodied and finishing on the sweeter side, this hearty ale is definitely a fireside-sipper.”

"A classic American Lager. Easily drinkable and refreshing. Brewed with our secret ingredient – FLAVOR!"
Easy Go Bohemian Pilsner

Humans, by nature, are social creatures. We want to be popular with our peers. Too often, we, especially younger people, tend to gravitate toward the popular thing to do. And in the digital age, where we use platforms that are designed to be addictive, this can mean a wide variety of strange behaviors.
It’s important to understand and be aware of how these platforms work, especially as parents of kids who currently use or might use these platforms someday. We have to protect them, or they will get manipulated into doing or saying something they might regret or get hurt. In this segment of the Future Freaks Me Out, Joe talks about how these platforms work and how algorithms make us do strange things, like pouring buckets of ice water on our heads or eating Tide pods for clicks and likes.

Let's talk shop....bottle shops, that is.
This week, Julia from Truth, Beer, and Podsequences joins Caroline at Delhi Liquor to talk about bottle shops. They discuss what the difference is, in their mind, between a bottle shop, a brewery, and a bar. They also dive into the seemingly growing popularity of non-alcoholic bottle shops.
**What We Are Drinking
Caroline:**Guten BockMadtree Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
Malty | Rich | Smooth
ABV: 7.4%
IBU: 21
"A celebration of Cincinnati's brewing heritage, German roots and annual Bockfest festival, Gutenbock is a traditional doppelbock lager. With notes of caramel, bread and a hint of chocolate to balance things out, some say it's simply the G.O.A.T."
Black Hoof Pineapple Whip
Swine City Brewing - Fairfield, Ohio
Hard Seltzer
ABV: 5%
Julia:
Orange Dream
Grainworks Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
ABV: 6.2%
"What’s more refreshing on a hot summer day: a fresh, juicy orange, or a cool, creamy treat? If you answered “both,” you’re in luck! Copious amounts of tangy oranges, and creamy lactose and vanilla are added to a light American Wheat Ale, creating a delicious treat that combines the best flavors to beat the heat.
Don’t miss the other fresh and fruity treats in Grainworks’ “Dreams” series throughout the year."
About Truth, Beer, and Podsequences
"Recapping Cincinnati’s Beer podcasts with our own spin on the truth of what they’re saying. We’ll make up our own wildly inaccurate speculations and rumors about what’s REALLY going on behind the scenes of Cincinnati’s best beer podcasts, with the hope that there won’t be many consequences for us poking fun at them."

About the Gnarly GnomeI drink. Sometimes after I drink I like to write about it. Sometimes I make videos too. Cincinnati beer is my focus, but you never really know what I'll be talking about. Spirits? Cocktails? Wine? I'm most definitely an equal opportunity drinker! Host of Cincy Brewcast, Drinking with the Gnome, and The Weekly Pint. Find him at: https://www.thegnarlygnome.com/.

Artificial Intelligence has recently exploded into the mainstream. From Chatbot GPT to Microsoft’s Bing to AI-powered voice, photo, and video generators.
For the most part, people have been using this Artificial Intelligence technology for fun. People combine a bunch of unrelated keywords and they tell the Artificial Intelligence to create a picture. It’s fun, new, and exciting. In my last video, I asked if this technology is moving too quickly. The series of articles that I present in this video gives a very clear answer to this question.
WARNING: This video discusses dark topics like suicide. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide, please contact the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 or 1-800-273-TALK (8255).
This is a new segment called "The Future Freaks Me Out" where Joe will research a topic and give his perspective, both as a millennial and as a father. This was originally published on our YouTube Channel. Click here to subscribe.

2014 Bronze Medal
2018 Gold Medal
2020 Silver Medal
Sweet Baby Java
Espresso Beans infused chocolate peanut butter porter
Duclaw Brewing Company - Baltimore, MD
ABV: 6.2%
"Our single bestselling beer of all time, Sweet Baby Jesus! Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter, Hop Gunned with cold-steeped, whole bean espresso to infuse it’s iconic, lightly sweet chocolate and peanut butter flavor and aroma with warm notes of coffee… without any additional bitterness! One sip of Sweet Baby Java and you’ll wonder, “Where has this bean all my life?”
Krampus Coal
Baltic-style porter with whole vanilla beans
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 7.8%
IBUs: 39
"Black with a tan head, this Baltic Porter has rich aromas of chocolate and vanilla. The flavor is more of the same, with a slight note of roast rounding it out. Thanks to the addition of whole vanillla beans, a strong vanilla flavor carries throughout the beer as it finishes on the sweeter side with just enough hop bitterness to keep it from being cloying."
The Best of Times
BBQ Rub Porter Brewed with Coffee and Cayenne
Great Lakes Brewing - Cleveland Ohio
Fifty West Brewing - Cincinnati Ohio
ABV: 6.7%
"Inspired by the foundational ingredients of a BBQ Rub, these flavors helps embellish and exemplify the smoke and umami of barbecued meat. Expect this Robust Porter to exude notes of cocoa, caramel and roast while our “rub” elements of coffee and cayenne help build and amplify the intensity. "

Joe and Caroline drink some local West Coast IPAs while discussing the history of the style.
What We Are Drinking
West Coast IPA
13 Below Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
ABV: 7.3%
IBU: 74
"Our West Coast India Pale Ale has a big hoppy aroma and flavor. It has a slight malt backbone with typical West Coast hops."SIMCOE, AMARILLO, & CASCADE HOPS
Truth IPA
Rhinegeist Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
ABV: 7.2%
IBUs: 75
"Rare are moments of truth, when you’ve struck the last match, belting out tunes with your friends, staring deep into the campfire – times when you feel infinite. Our Truth is found in the scintillating brilliance of hops. Brewed with a nod to the Pacific, hops sizzle with tropical fruit aroma, grapefruit and mango notes and a dry finish."
West Coast IPA
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 7.2%
IBUs: 61
"An American craft brewing classic, the West Coast IPA showcases assertive American hops. Our version is the color of orange marmalade with a white head. Aromas of pine, citrus, and peaches leap from the glass. Clean, sweet malt flavor supports the hops, and there’s plenty of the lingering bitterness that’s a staple of the style. Hops used both in the kettle and for dry-hopping were Amarillo, Cascade, Citra, and Columbus."

Joe and Caroline drink some phenomenal triple-digit imperial stouts and talk about the history of the style.
What We Are Drinking
Cold Brew Imperial Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 11.2%
IBUs: 62
"We infused our imperial stout with some cold brew coffee from local roaster Deeper Roots. The roasty aromas of coffee meld with the beer's notes of chocolate, raisins, roast, and a light peppery note. More coffee leads the flavor, with sweet malt flavors of dark fruits before being carried away from roast and ending in a fairly dry finish that keeps this beer drinkable."Leelanau County Cherry Imperial Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 11.2%
IBUs: 62
"Leelanau County, Michigan, grows some of the finest, juiciest cherries on the planet. They add a delicious sweetness and subtle acid note to our Imperial Stout, with its roasty, chocolatey malt notes."
Vlad Imperial Stout
Royal Docks Brewing Company - Canton, Ohio
ABV: 13.1%
IBUs: 72
"An Imperial Stout to be reckoned with, Vlad is a coal-black, high-gravity, high-alcohol ale with tremendous, complex flavours and aromas that hint at caramel, coffee, roasted nuts and a perhaps a wee bit of smoke with a monster mouthfeel and a warming finish."

What We Are Drinking
Blonde Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 7.5%
IBU: 34
“Golden with a white head, our Blonde Stout may appear pale but packs flavors and aromas you’d find in a jet-black beer. Coffee and chocolate lead the aroma, thanks to aging the beer on cocoa nibs and espresso beans from Deeper Roots Coffee. Coffee and chocolate flavors are rounded out by the smooth malt backbone, and it finishes medium-bodied.”
Dry Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 4.7%
IBU: 27
"Brewed in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, this classic (Dry/Irish) stout is jet black with a tan head. Light roast aromas and malt flavors give way to a dry finish, making for a smooth, quaffable brew that’s lighter than it looks."
G.I.L.
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5%
IBU: 18
"Our tribute to Cincinnati’s heritage of both Irish and German immigrants, this mash-up takes the malt recipe of a classic Irish Red Ale, our German lager yeast, and a mix of both traditional German and Irish hops to create a deep amber lager with notes of light caramel and toffee with a dry, clean finish."
Gilligan's Extra Stout
West Side Brewing
ABV: 9%
IBU: 20
"This bold foreign-style extra stout is loaded with aromas of roast, coffee, and chocolate. Traditionally a beer brewed to be bigger in order to stand up to being shipped all over the world, the bold malt notes are paired with firm hop bitterness to help it remain balanced."
Dry Cider
West Side Brewing
ABV: 5%
“West Cider’s year-round staple, our Dry Cider is fermented fully and minimally back-sweetened in order to achieve a dry finish. It has an aroma of juicy apples, a lightly tart apple flavor, and a pleasingly dry finish.”
Peanut Butter Milk Stout
West Side Brewing
ABV: 6.7%
IBU: 32
“Our Peanut Butter Milk Stout features aromas chocolate, coffee, peanut butter, and a light roast note. A dash of oats is also used in the brew to provide a full malt body. The nutty peanut butter flavor works with the sweetness from the lactose to help soften the roastiness, which comes through mostly on the finish.”

Porter Robust Ale
West Side Brewing – Westwood, Ohio

"Deep-Brown bordering on black, this porter boats a malty aroma filled with chocolate notes and a hint of roast. Make sweetness pairs with flavors of bakers chocolate and lightly piney hops for a smooth, full-bodied drink with just enough bitterness to keep it balanced."

This week, Joe welcomes back Julia from Truth, Beer, and Podsequences, a podcast that recaps other Cincinnati craft beer podcasts. They drink three "West Ciders" at West Side Brewing while discussing the history of apple cider and some of their favorite mocktails, cocktails, and beertails.
This episode was recorded at West Side Brewing in Westwood, Ohio. If you haven't checked them out before, stop what you are doing and get over there now!
What We Are DrinkingDry Cider
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5%
"West Cider’s year-round staple, our Dry Cider is fermented fully and minimally back-sweetened in order to achieve a dry finish. It has an aroma of juicy apples, a lightly tart apple flavor, and a pleasingly dry finish."
Lemongrass Ginger Cider
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5.3%
Pumpkin Spice Cider
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 6.2%
"Fall’s here, that means pumpkin spice is here! Our Pumpkin Spice Cider is the best liquid, alcoholic, leaves falling, pumpkin carving, Halloween decorating cider around!"
About Truth, Beer, and Podsequences
"Recapping Cincinnati’s Beer podcasts with our own spin on the truth of what they’re saying. We’ll make up our own wildly inaccurate speculations and rumors about what’s REALLY going on behind the scenes of Cincinnati’s best beer podcasts, with the hope that there won’t be many consequences for us poking fun at them."

Holiday Ale
West Side Brewing – Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 6.4%

Downstream Jam Dark Cherry Gose
Royal Docks Brewing - Canton, Ohio
ABV: 4.7%

"Downstream Jam is a tart tug-of-war between dark cherry sweetness and the benevolent bacteria lactobacillus. Prickly and floral, tangy with a touch of salt, Downstream Jam is a palatable reminder during these long wintery nights that there was a time when the far off buzz of cicadas played backup to the aroma a fresh mown grass and the sun shone past 5 o’clock. It was summer once. And it will be again."

Joe and Caroline talk about Gose beers while drinking three different varieties from West Side Brewing and a special guest tells them about the ingredients. They also recap Caroline's recent girl's trip to Indianapolis.
What We Are DrinkingGose
Traditional German-style sour ale
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 3.9%
IBUs: 7
"Cloudy yellow, with a fluffy white head, our traditional German-style Gose uses sea salt and coriander to make a truly unique beer. This brew leads with aroma of bread dough, lemon citrus, and a hint of lactic acid. The flavor is more doughy maltiness and some coriander spice that is followed immediately by a clean, firm sourness. The beer ends with a perfectly balanced hit of salinity to prime you for the next drink."
Pineapple Gose
Traditional German-style sour ale brewed with spices
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 3.9%
IBUs: 7
"Cloudy yellow, with a fluffy white head, our German-style Gose uses sea salt and coriander to make a truly unique beer. This base beer lends aromas of bread dough, lemon, and a hint of lactic acid, while the addition of pineapple gives it huge notes of pineapple and tropical fruit, and enhances the clean, firm sourness of the beer. It finishes with a perfectly balanced hit of salinity to prime you for the next drink."
Cucumber Serrano Gose
Traditional German-style sour ale brewed with spices with flavor added
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 3.9%
IBUs: 7
"Cloudy yellow with a fluffy white head, our German-style Gose uses sea salt and coriander to make a truly unique beer. This base beer lends aromas of bread dough, lemon, and a hint of lactic acid, and the addition of the flavors of cucumbers and serrano chili peppers give it both a touch of coolness and a touch of heat."

**What We Are Drinking
Caroline:**Farmhouse Belgian-Style Ale

Coffee Please Stout

In this week’s episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, we go back in time to the dark ages when drinking alcohol was considered illegal. The Volstead Act, which established prohibition in the United States had a devastating impact on the City of Cincinnati and destroyed an entire industry.
This conversation was guided by a book called "Cincinnati Beer" by Michael D. Morgan, specifically, Chapter 14 which is titled "Dark Beers Make a Comeback and the Sheriff Gets into the Beer Business".
This is part two of our discussion on Cincinnati's rich beer history. Listen to part one here.
What We Are Drinking
Caroline:
Biere De Nöel - Belgium style dark spiced ale
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 10.4%
IBUs: 30
"A special treat for the holidays, this Belgium-style Winter ale is a deep ruby color with a tan head. Fruity esters from the Belgian yeast bring to mind aromas of plums and bubblegum while playing nicely with the spices used in the brew kettle. Full-bodied and finishing on the sweeter side, this big ale is definitely a fireside-sipper."
Joe:
Porter
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5.8%
IBUs: 45
"Deep-brown, bordering on black, this porter boasts a malty aroma filled with chocolate notes and a hint of roast. Malt sweetness pairs with flavors of baker’s chocolate and lightly piney hops for a smooth, full-bodied drink with just enough bitterness to keep it balanced."

What We Are Drinking
Caroline:
Astra Bomb Pop Hard Seltzer
March First Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
ABV: 5%
*"Brings you back to the good old days chasing down the ice cream truck to grab a popsicle. Astra Bomb Pop recalls those raspberry, cherry flavors of the all american summer treat. All Astra products are crisp, sparkling beverage made with all-natural flavorings, pure filtered water, and a touch of sweetness. A crisp, sparkling beverage made with all-natural
flavorings, pure filtered water, and a touch of sweetness.
Ohio is home to pioneers in many fields. Notably, Ohioans have blazed new trails in space flight, with more than 22,000 hours of combined hours in space by Ohio astronauts. Astra celebrates and honors our unsung heroes of space."*
Joe:
Vienna Lager
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5.5%
IBU: 23
"This traditional lager is a deep copper color with a white head. Malt flavors of bread crusts and caramel give way to a spicy, floral hop note from a generous helping of German Hallertau hops. The finish is clean and on the dry side, making this beer great for multiple pints or pairing with meals."

In this week’s episode of the Craft Parenting Podcast, we go back in time to the golden age of beer and we talk about the road to prohibition in Cincinnati. This conversation was guided by a book called "Cincinnati Beer" by Michael D. Morgan, specifically the 13th chapter which is called "Why Somebody Had to Make a Law Against It".
Plus Caroline reveals what's bugging her on children's TV and Joe has a dad joke that barely squeaks by.
What We Are Drinking
Caroline’s Drink
Street Corner Thieves
Brink Brewing - College Hill, Ohio
Raspberry Vanilla Russian Imperial Stout (July 2019 we think?!)
ABV: 10.15%
"Street Corner Thieves is a blend of our "Street Corner Karate" and "Barrel Thieves and Hired Guns" Russian Imperial Stout collaborations. We took the best of both beers and blended them together in a Bourbon barrel and then added vanilla beans and 44lbs of raspberries. The beer was allowed to age in the barrel for 9 months. Flavors of fresh raspberries and subtle vanilla mingle with roasty, chocolatey stout."
Joe’s Drink:
Cold Brew Imperial Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 11.2%
IBU: 62
"We infused our Imperial Stout with some cold-brewed coffee from local roaster Deeper Roots. The roasty aromas of coffee meld with the beer’s notes of chocolate, raisins, roast, and a light peppery note. More coffee leads the flavor, with sweet malt flavors of dark fruit before being carried away by roast and ending in a fairly dry finish that keeps this beer drinkable."

What We Are Drinking
Caroline’s Drink:
Peanut Butter Milk Stout
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 6.7%
IBU: 32
“Our Peanut Butter Milk Stout features aromas of chocolate, coffee, peanut butter, and a light roast note. A dash of oats is also used in the brew to provide a full malty body. The nutty peanut butter flavor works with the sweetness from the lactose to help soften the roastiness, which comes through mostly on the finish.”
Joe’s Drinks:
Vienna Lager
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5.5%
IBU: 23
“This traditional lager is a deep copper color with a white head. Malt flavors of bread crusts and caramel give way to a spicy floral hop note from a generous helping of German Hallertau hops. The finish is clean and on the dry side, making this beer great for multiple pints or pairing with meals.”
Golden G.O.A.T.
Samuel Adams - Boston, MA
ABV: 5.0%
IBU: 20
“Let the cheering begin! Golden G.O.A.T. is your craft champ from the fame whistle to overtime. This easy-drinking lager will be your #1 pick on game day to keep you refreshed and coming back for more.”

Krampus Coal
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Baltic style porter with whole vanilla beans
ABV: 7.8%
IBU: 39
“Black with a tan head, this Baltic-style Porter has rich aromas of chocolate and vanilla. The flavor is more of the same, with a slight note of roast rounding it out. Thanks to the addition of whole vanilla beans, a strong vanilla flavor carries throughout the beer as it finishes on the sweeter side with just enough hop bitterness to keep it from being cloying. A portion of all proceeds will be donated to the Boys and Girls club.”

West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Blood Orange Common Ale
ABV: 4.7%

West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Porter
ABV: 5.8%
IBU: 42
“Deep-brown, bordering on black, this porter boasts a malty aroma filled with chocolate notes and a hint of roast. Malt sweetness pairs with flavors of baker’s chocolate and lightly piney hops for a smooth, full-bodied drink with just enough bitterness to keep it balanced.”
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Munich Helles
ABV: 5.4%
IBU: 18
“A classic pale lager from Southern Germany, our Munich Helles is a bright golden color. Soft malty aromas of rising bread are followed by flavors of biscuit and bread dough, and finish crisp and balanced, with just enough hops to balance the malt. Prost!”***

This week, things went a little sideways when Joe and Caroline had to temporarily move themselves, two small kids, two dogs, and all of their stuff to their parent’s house for the weekend.
They also discuss some best practices when it comes to personal safety and severe weather preparedness, we find out what’s bugging Caroline on Children’s TV, Joe tells a thunderous Dad joke, and more.
What We Are Drinking Tonight
West Side Brewing — Westwood, OH
Missing Linck
ABV: 5.6%
IBU: 18
"Our friends at Urban Artifact discovered a heritage yeast strain in the cellars of the abandoned F&JA Linck brewery underneath Cincinnati and brought it back to life. This beer uses a mix of pale malts and is lightly hopped, which allows this unique yeast to shine. Fruity aromas and notes of pepper, clove, and spice, along with a slight funk, all come from the yeast. Cheers!"

- The remnants of Hurricane Ike hit the Greater Cincinnati area on September 14, 2008. It "cut power to nearly 90 percent of Duke Energy customers and paralyzing neighborhoods and communities for as long as seven or eight days." Read more about it here.

This week Joe and Caroline talk all about the 4th of July (America's Independence Day), how they have celebrated it in the past, and some tips and tricks for dealing with anxious dogs during fireworks. They also talk all about the week’s adventures, we find out what’s bugging Caroline on Children’s TV, and Joe has a booming dad joke.
What We are Drinking Tonight
Caroline’s Drink:
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Gose
ABV: 3.8%
IBU: 7
"Cloudy yellow, with a fluffy white head, our traditional German-style Gose uses sea salt and coriander to make a truly unique beer. This brew leads with aroma of bread dough, lemon citrus, and a hint of lactic acid. The flavor is more doughy maltiness and some coriander spice that is followed immediately by a clean, firm sourness. The beer ends with a perfectly balanced hit of salinity to prime you for the next drink."
Joe’s Drink:
West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Summer Ale
ABV: 4.8%
IBU: 32
"Our version of an English Summer Ale is a sparkling light golden color with a fluffy white head. Lightly fruity and citrusy hop aromas lead into a crisp, crackery malt body, and a dry finish paired with just enough bitterness make this thirst quencher a real summer crusher."

Caroline:

West Side Brewing - Westwood, Ohio
Hefeweizen (German Wheat)

Lift one and toast to the Queen City!"

Pilsner
West Side Brewing Company — Westwood, Ohio
ABV: 5.1%
IBU: 34
“Brewed with just one malt and two hop varieties, our German Pilsner is proof that sometimes simple is best. A bright, straw-yellow lager with a big white head, the delicately floral and spicy aroma of Hallertau Mittelfrueh hops combines with a light, crackery malt flavor to make an incredibly crisp, quaffable brew. Prost!”
Joe:
American Lager
50 West Brewing Company — Cincinnati, Ohio

Brink Brewing - College Hill
Listermann Brewing - Norwood (collaboration beer)

Caroline:
Moozie -Milk Stout

IBUs: 20 (though it varies based on where you get your info, but my can says 5.8% Brink’s website says 6.2%)

Like a chocolate milkshake without the straw, it features chocolate and coffee notes, and almost chewy thanks to the addition of lactose and flaked oats. This beer boasts a bronze medal from the 2017 Denver Beer Competition and GOLD in the US Open Beer Championship. As of October 2020 has won gold 3 years in a row.”

Are You Pricklish? | Fruit Ale
Taft’s Brewing - Cincinnati, Ohio
ABV: 4.5%
IBU: 12
“Prickly Pear and Kabosu fruit combine to produce this bright magenta-hued ale, our 2019 GABF silver medal-winner brewed in collaboration with our friends from Against the Grain Brewery. Notes of citrus and melon refresh and invigorate the palate, whilst a snappy finish zips you out the door and on to the next adventure.”
Joe:
Elliot Ness | Amber Lager
Great Lakes Brewing Co. - Cleveland, Ohio
ABV: 6.1%
IBU: 27
Flavor: Almost untouchably smooth--armed with lightly toasted malts and noble hops.
"Admittedly, it’s a bit of a paradox to name our Amber Lager for history’s most famous agent of prohibition. But it’s a smooth, malty (and dare we say, arresting?) paradox."

Christian Moerlein Brewing - Cincinnati
ABV: 4.7%
IBU: 17
"Each spring we honor Cincinnati's historical nickname "Porkopolis," by brewing a small batch of our favorite cream ale recipe, affectionately named "Strawberry Pig." The resulting beer was so unique that bartenders began creating blends of the beer to share. One such creation was a mix of Strawberry Pig and our award-winning Se7en Hefeweizen that created a strawberry banana ale referred to as Piggyweizen. The creation was such a smashing success with its refreshingly light body, summer hefe Haze and fruity finish that we bring you Strawberry Banana Pig."

"Our tribute to Cincinnati’s heritage of both Irish and German immigrants, this mash-up takes the malt recipe of a classic Irish Red Ale, our German lager yeast, and a mix of both traditional German and Irish hops to create a deep amber lager with notes of light caramel and toffee with a dry, clean finish."
