Batch128: 2018 Friendsmas

Author: Craft Beer Republic December 25, 2018 Duration: 23:40
Cheers, Merry Christmas, and happy holidays everyone! We got together with some of our beerest friends to share some Christmas beer and cheer. The Booze League's Commissioner, Coley, and BDN join friends-of-the show Brian and Deb along with Shannon to play a game of "Guess that Christmas Beer" (to not spoil the beer for those that want to play along, the beers will be listed at the very end of the show notes). Everyone samples four different Christmas time beers while the group gives out some descriptions of the beer and attempts to guess what they're drinking before the provider of the beer tells everyone. We also share a few laughs and a good time all around a looping video of a YouTube fire. We hope you have a great holiday and enjoy our holiday beer share!

Don't forget to check us out at www.theunfilteredgentlemen.com and to follow us on our social medias for some great beer porn: www.facebook.com/theunfilteredgentlemen, @unfilteredgents on twitter and TheUnfilteredGentlemen on Instagram! We want you to drunk dial (805) 538-BEER (2337), we'd love to hear from you!

Nick & Nicole - Lost Abbey's Gnoel de Abbey Winter Warmer
Commissioner Wylie - Firestone Walker's Mordred Sour
Deb - North Coast Brewing's Berliner Weisse Cranberry-Quince
