We are back for our holiday annual party! We had a lot of beers through the day so these podcasts get a little out of hand.  We had over 8 different beers this day, including shots of whiskey during the 1pm football game.  As always, I can't describe these episodes, just listen to the madness.

Mike and Jess host their best beer friends in the whole world while Jacob tries to save himself with Honey Dew.

Honestly, I was dead this morning.  I forget what we podcasted about but it was a blast. I am sure we talked some March Craftness, our new World Mug of Beer event (coming in August) and our live podcast, May 17th at Maggy's Lounge with Bog Iron!

I also fucked my rim up pretty bad later this day after we went out at 1pm to watch the Celtics after drinking these insane beers.

And we were also told to enjoy yelling at the television by a couple of lame patrons at the bar.

Eddie and Krystyna join the podcast to sample some delicious IPA's, play some of our classic segments and games and discuss live.  We lost track of time on this so I only mapped out the first half hour.

That's it, that is all I felt like mapping.  The other beers we had on the podcast were Nightshift Armarillo single hop India Pale Ale and Down the Road Beer Co. Dreamtime New England IPA.
