We'll Drink 2 That

When we sat down to interview the guys over at Papa Marce's Cerveceria we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. We had so much fun that we just had to break this into 2 shows to do it justice. We dug a little deeper into the inner workings of this cerveceria and drank quite a bit more of their devilishly delicious libations. We hope you're ready for more laughs and filthy jokes cause BOY OH BOY are you in for it now!!!    Beers in Flight 2: "Juice Abuse" Pale Ale 5.9% ABV "A STOUT Observation" 7.0% ABV "Road to Red and Back 2.0" Kettle Sour 6.2% ABV "She's A Jam Eater" a.k.a. "The BEAST" 8 month barrel aged Imperial Red Sour 10.4%ABV  

Justin and Rudy made the drive to Carlsbad, California (a long haul of roughly 30 minutes) to sit with Mark Amador and Dan Converse, the Founders of Papa Marce's Cervezeria. PMC is a small brewery with a huge heart that serves gigantic flavors in every beer. They specialize in barrel aged sours, lagers, and ales but they do sneak in a porter that will blow your mind. We laughed from beginning to end of this interview which along with the 2 different flights of amazing beer made this episode a long one so we broke it up into 2 parts! This was an absolute blast but just wait till part 2...   Part 1 Flight "Papa Shaka" Mexican Lager 5.0 ABV "Tequilla Makes my Gose Fall Off" Barrel Aged 7 months 7.7 ABV "Palomas Santa Fe" 7.7 ABV "Salto de Cafe" 5.4 ABV

So with a shot in the dark and ZERO planning Justin took the reigns and we went to Ballast Point's Home Brew Mart for a flight of some deliciously interesting beers, sweet jams (that we own 0% of the rights to so please don't sue LoL) and a surprise interview with big man on campus Mr. Matt Davis. He schooled us with a quick lesson on what they do there as well as giving us the ins and outs of the beers we chose for the flight. We had an awesome time and can't thank Matt enough for taking the time out to sit with us. If you are ever in the area make sure you stop by you won't be disappointed! THE FLIGHT: Piper Down 5.8% ABV  Sour Wench 7.0% ABV 20 IBU Indra Kunindra 7.0% ABV  Habanero Sculpin 7.0% ABV  

This is the long awaited part 2 of our first doulbe episode. We got a smidge more toasty than we normally get but boy oh boy did we have fun!! Our producer Sam tried her best to wrangle us in but nothing could be done to stop us! She did however contribute to the madness by bringing something for us to try for our Mystery Beer segment!   Beers in this Episode: Garage Brewing's "The Tow Truck" "Mississippi Mud" Mother Earth Brewing Company's "Call me Ginger" Belching Beaver's "Mexican Chocolate Peanut Butter Stout"   Mystery Beer: Founders Brewing KBS Kentucky Breakfast Stout

So OMBAC's 3rd annual OTL/BEERFEST went off without a hitch!! Over 100 3 men/women teams playing with their bats and balls at the beach for the chance to be number 1! We got invited to come check out the festivities and partake in the beerfest featuring 20 of San Diego's finest breweries. We saw old friends and made some new ones and had a blast. Join us as we TRY to remember all the fun we had! BOTTOMS UP!!!   *EDITOR'S NOTE* So around minute 15 we were speculating on the compensation of the brewers for this event. We were quite a bit off. After speaking with Tom Doyle (OMBAC's VP) he informed us of the following.. OMBAC buys 1 keg and the brewers donate the 2nd. They looking to be able to purchase both kegs by year 5 (so in the next 2 years). The brewers don't pay anything to be a part of the beerfest. We apologize for not getting all the info but we just wanted to make sure we cleared this up for everyone!

So a few months ago we interviewed the guys over at 3 Punks Ale but we also sat down that same day with brewery owner Tim Parker and Head Brewer James Hodges of the Chula Vista Brewery!! We talked to the two Military Vets about their love of all things beer and how they are keeping things fun and exciting in the beer scene! We had an awesome time and definately enjoyed the selections we were offered. If you are ever in South SD make sure to stop by 294 3rd Ave, Chula Vista, CA 91910.... it's a "Beautiful View" you won't want to miss!!

We sat down with the Old Mission Beach Athletic Club's (OMBAC) VP Tom Doyle and Jay Jones of Thorn Brewing in the upstairs brew area (hence some of the background noises of the tanks) of Thorn Brewing in San Diego's trendy North Park location. We got a quick history lesson about OMBAC and why OTL (Over the Line) is so near and dear to them! We had an absolute blast with these guys and cant wait to cover the actual event on May 18-19th in Mariner's Point in Mission Beach.    * Tickets are still available online at http://www.ombac.org/beerfestotl/  * USE OUR CODE "WD2T" AT CHECKOUT FOR $10 OFF!!   SEE YOU THERE!!!

Join us as we cover everything that was the 2019 Sabroso Craft Beer, Taco & Music Festival sponsored by the good people at Gringo Bandito. A 2 day event in Dana Point, California with  Lucha Libre events with an amazing special guest, lots of tacos, eating contests, HUGE music lineups and let's not forget the beer....that is the reason we were there. With over 150 different (not all necessarily good) craft beers, there was definitely something for everyone!!

This episode is technically the 2nd actual episode (recorded back in August), we recorded it during a VERY hot evening, hence the fan in the background. It was the first of a double episode recorded that night. We were still getting into our groove but having a blast!
