Yesterday we cut the lawn and grilled out on the deck in our underoos.  Today. . . we prepare for some overnight freezing and snow.  Indiana’s bipolar weather is at it again.  So a perfect time for the boys to invite their buddies of Wolfoose to swing over to the Blind Pig Patio garage and drink some Porters and Stouts and discuss some of the most important issues of our time and how to be part of the solution.  But after a couple brews they forgot what they were there for and made the wise decision to just drink more beer and toss some bourbon into the mix.   Some mighty fine brews from the Braxton Brewing Co. and the Adroit Theory Brewing Company along with the always smooth and delicious bourbon from the Journeyman Distillery fueled the night’s convo and laughter.  Cheers!   Shout outs in this week’s episode include:  Putts Bar & Grill; Anchorage Brewing Company; Backstep Brewing Company; BriarScratch Brewing;  and Bootleg Biology.    After the show, start filling your own Tavour crate.
