Easter-4/20 Show

4/25/2014

0 Comments

 
Picture
Easter and 4/20 collide in this episode that features old and new friends, peeps, and cocktails - not necessarily mixed or in that order. No on-air herb enjoyment!  

Rick Haught, fellow beer geek and the guy responsible for making Curtis a HopHead, joins Joby, Curtis and Jason in this special Easter edition. 

Unfortunately, audio/video technical problems plagued the first 5 minutes of the show so the show begins mid thought while we are contemplating whether or not Hop Devil (the hoppy beer Rick first served to Curtis) is still as hoppy as we remember.

      •  1/2 oz. triple sec

Place the orange peel around the glass and drink!

Rim a martini glass with thick simple syrup and then dip into dyed green coconut flakes, then adorn with a little marshmallow peep. Think of it as your very own adult Easter Basket, but instead of being filled with candy, it’s filled with booze!

Prepare the glasses ahead of time and put them on a tray decorated with jelly beans and other seasonal delights for a stunning effect.

For the cocktail:

* 1 1/2 ounces Cherry Vodka
* 1/2 ounce Triple Sec
* 3 ounces Half and Half or Milk
* Dash Grenadine

Shake with ice until chilled. Pour into decorated glasses and serve.

Joby and I are back behind the mics together after a break that included a scheduled off week, family obligations and a root canal.  That is a lot to cover and recover from but we get it done in style with a flight of beers from The Bruery.

This was an ultra light recoding session. Just two mics and a camera phone.

Episode 12: Breathalyzers and LA Ale Works

3/27/2013

Unfortunately, this episode fell victim to corrupt file syndrome.  That wouldn't have been so bad but as I was closing out the video feed I grabbed my phone by the home button and disconnected it from the server before it could save the file. There probably will never be any archive of this show.

It was an epic two hour show that started out with Ventura County Sheriff's Department officers giving Joby and I breathalyzers and educating us about alcohol effects for the first hour.  In the second hour we talked to Kristopher Barnes and John Rockwell founders of LA Ale Works. They have a great Kickstater success story so you will want to visit their website.
