Episode 81: Craft Tastings (or, Matchy Matchy Pairing)

With Greg Orth from Craft Tastings

Continuing our Valentine’s Day tradition once again we invited Greg Orth from Craft Tastings to the Beer Busters Podcast Basement to indulge in some delicious beer and food pairings. Dan brought us an update on beer and Girl Scout cookie pairings and we discussed Budweiser’s latest Super Bowl commercial. Wayne hosted There’s Weid in My Beer in Happy Fun Time and Steph beerducated us on the art of beer pairing in Know Your Beers. Greg delighted us as usual with mouthgasms aplenty, this time branching out beyond chocolate. And, of course, we set an on air pairing challenge with St. Boniface’s Hegemony Anniver5ary Reserve.
