   Wow, did JeffreyT set you guys up or what? Holy shit did you get some decent beers on this show. +dude to JeffreyT for being so gracious, and +dude to Mikey Mason for not drinking them himself before getting to your place. I don’t know how he did it.

   There is really no way to properly describe a beer as complex as Westvleteren without sounding like a complete tool. In my opinion, the only person who could do it (and do it well) was Michael Jackson. When you said you tasted and smelled plums, ripe fruit, and other deep candy aromas, that’s about how I’d best describe it too. Beyond that, the beer’s a total mystery to me. Awesome beer to feature on your show.

   Oh, and Sick - if you called the monastery and asked them to send you a case of it, they wouldn’t tell you to fuck off. They’d say ” “.

   The whole MTV VJ discussion was awesome. Nina Blackwood was the absolute shit, but my favorite was Martha Quinn. She was really cute, spoke well, and lit up the screen whenever she was on it. Those were great days - the early days of MTV. Now it’s a joke.

   Riki Rachtman was a douche. He had a talk show out here in LA on KLSX (the same station that carried Howard Stern). The show came to a screeching halt when he beat up his co-host because he’d insulted Rachtman’s girlfriend, who was a porn star. I think he called her a whore or something, and Rachtman reached across the board and punched him in the face. Game over.

   And Terri Nunn does look amazing. She was hot early on, but she seems even hotter now. I don’t know how that works. Must be her genes. I mean jeans - she looks good in those too.

   I really enjoyed the show. The Hopsolution is made with 100% German Smaragd hops just as Two-Hearted is 100% Centennial. Fun to hear Spoon spasm-out on this beer. There is very good beer coming out of MI for sure. To be honest I have never been a big TV person so the MTV stuff is rather unknown to me. We will be drinking pup’s homebrew on GBS 160.

3. Bill Said,

   Had to set aside a large block of time to be able to fully enjoy your latest episode.

   First off, another good wrap up of the Beer on the Bay event. To be sure, those that missed it,
   missed one of the best brewfests going. It will be interesting to see if they can top that next
   year, but I don’t see how. I have a few suggestions, which I may pass along to Chris (BrewErie)
   or his dad, Pete, next time I’m in Erie.

   Westvleteren, eh? A little high class for ‘yoos guys’, what? Never had one myself, and probably,
   due to its scarcity, will not be able to enjoy one. BTW, the correct pronunciation, according to
   a couple of BJCP judges is: Westvleteren = West VLEE-ter-an (accent 2nd syllable).

   Some good brews do come out of Michigan, but I think none of them surpass the consistently
   good and wide variety of offerings by Ohio’s Great Lakes Brewing Co., celebrating their 20th
   year this year.

   I couldn’t appreciate much of your MTV experience, myself. MTV was something that was on the
   TV in the cafeteria of Lakeland College, where I got my 2nd degree back in the 80’s (AS. E.T.).
   Other than that, I only tuned in for Beavis and Butthead … heh heh … heh heh … buttmunch!

   I will be trying a Weyerbacher’s QUAD sometime this week. Hopefully, I’ll have the same orgasmic
   experience you both seemed to have when quaffing your Westvleteren.

   Looking forward to the release of the Clamato chug to the brilliant strains of Boy George’s “Do you really
   want to hurt me?”

   Cheers

   This was the show I was invited to attend? Fuck me. If I had known what you were gonna be drinking, I would have called in sick…

5. Father Spoon Said,

   Clarke - we were really treated with this show and honestly I don’t know if we’ll ever beat this line but goddamn it’s going to be fun to try.

   JeffreyT - sweet jesus man those beers made my mouth orgasm!

   Bill - Thanks for the heads up on pronunciation! It was a real treat for sure. I was an MTV junkie in the 80’s until all of those freaking shows started taking the place of videos. Now I watch VH1 Classic.

   Crappy - yup this is the one we invited you and the Mrs. over for Wait till you see what I brought back from NY. We won’t do another marathon show but could come close!

6. Aaron Said,

   I too have had the grave misfortune of trying Chelada. I was only able to last two sips though:

   LOVE the show. Just discovered you guys courtesy of my buddy the Drunken Polack.

   Keep up the good work!

   Aaron

7. sickpuppy Said,

   Thanks for checking out SIDT Aaron! Glad you love the show! We will link to yours, great website!!

8. Beer Retard Said,

   Not sure why I haven’t listened to your shit till now, but this was my first episode. Good stuff and I’ll be listening from here on out. Anytime you talk about metal and beer in the same place, it’s a good thing. Definitely the first mention of Candlemass I’ve ever heard in a beer podcast.

   Also…I think you dudes might appreciate the Beer Douche of the Week comics I post on my blog.

9. Father Spoon Said,

   Beer Douche of the Week. that name right there deserves an award!
