Let us just jump right in: We have a new member of the show, Joe Senigaglia from Jow’s Arcade! Tim has left the show to travel and live the ultimate Tim-Mather-lifestyle with his family, which we’re both envious of and very supportive of. We love you, Tim!

We then got on with the show and took a nose-dive into some awesome brews from Green Cheek Beer Co.. We discussed several of their standout beers, such as “Nectaron,” a hoppy Pilsner, and “Nelson!! (It’s What We Like Here),” an IPA that showcases those awesome New Zealand hops called Nelson. As we wrapped up the podcast, we reflected on the current trends within the craft beer industry, particularly the move away from highly bitter IPAs to beers that emphasize complex flavors and aroma, while also not destroying your palate.
