BeerCast #42 – Grooben’s Choice
BeerCast #42 – Grooben’s Choice. We run a democratic ship here on the BeerCast, so when panellist Grooben requested the chance to host a podcast, we unlocked his cage and let him out with the kitty. He came back with four beers, so we cobbled together a podcast. On the panel today, Shovels, Richard, and of course – Grooben.

BeerCast #40 – Dutch Biers
BeerCast #40 – Dutch Beers – One of Europe’s most overlooked brewing nations – the Dutch are sandwiched between the purity-loving Germans on one side, and the monastic Belgians on the other. 95% of Dutch beer may be pale lager, but our panel proves that there can be some great beers to be found, if you only know where to look. Richard, Grooben and Andy head for the land of canals and windmills…

BeerCast #38 – Bières du Quebec Part 1
BeerCast #38 – Bières du Quebec Part 1. BeerCaster CraigAS recently returned to the UK after living in Montreal for several years. Home to a thriving beer scene, Quebec has some really inventive brewers – and thanks to Craig we managed to sample a few. In fact he brought so many over we had to split the podcast into two parts. Grooben, Shovels and Richard join CraigAS for francophone fun – please be warned this podcast contains some truly awful French.

2. Dieu du Ciel Route des Épices (5.5%)

BeerCast #37 – Gone Bananas
BeerCast #37 – Gone Bananas. We’re not sure if there’s ever been a banana-themed beer podcast on the internet before – but now there is. Our panel sample two banana beers and one that apparently has notes of the fruit in evidence. The other beer is totally random. Maybe that’s why there aren’t many podcasts themed around the bendy yellow fruit…on the panel today – Richard, Shovels, Andy and Jess.
1. White Horse Dragon Hill (4.1%)
2. Williams Bros Red (4.5%)
3. Wells Banana Bread Beer (5.2%)
4. Mongozo Banana (4.5%)
