A burning question we know you've all been struggling with; what did brewers do, 'back in the day', before they had access to refrigeration? How did they deal with all that hot wort? What did they use to flash off heat and then continue with open fermentation?? Set your worries to rest: We've got you. Join Jimmy, Mark, Squigs and special guest Jeff 'Chief' O'Neil up the Hudson River in picturesque Peekskill. Cheers!
Video #273: BEERmuda Triangle - Bell's Brewing, and Bagger Dave's Cascade!
Last summer's BEERmuda Triangle Tour continues, as the Guys continue onward from Beer City USA for 2012/2013, Grand Rapids, MI, and head to one of the places where Craft Beer got started in Michigan - Bell's Brewing. Larry Bell got Craft going in the Great Beer State way back in 1984, fermenting with a 5 gallon soup tureen covered with Saran Wrap! My how things have change. And how happy are the folks at Bagger Dave's Cascade location, when they discover what their prize is! Eat well, drink local! Cheers -
Video #272: Sun King Brewing - Grapefruit Cheers and Gateway Beers.
Jimmy, Mark and AJ land once again in Indianapolis, IN, home to the tremendously cool folk of Sun King Brewing. Craft Beer has made it to Indiana, and in a big, big way. You may have heard of them and love their beers, but why can't you get them in your state? And what's with those resealable aluminum cans? Have a watch and find out. Cheers!
Video #271: BEERmuda Triangle - GR, and Brewery Vivant!
Midway through last summer's BEERmuda Triangle Tour, the Guys make a stop in Beer City USA for 2012/2013, Grand Rapids, MI, where the beer truly does flow like water along the nearby. And not far from an amazing burger/beer event at the Downtown GR Bagger Dave's, there is a Brewery the likes of which you've never seen...Brewery Vivant. Enjoy!

Introducing some of our favorite Michigan Brewers, the good folk of New Holland Brewing; and at the event that evening at Bagger Dave's in Holland, MI, also a fundraiser for DirtyWaterBeer.org!
