Cöld Brüe Pödcast - Craft Beer Reviews & News

#249 - OHSO's Importal & Dogfish Head's World Wide Stout, 49ers 5-0, Joker

We drink & review Ales From The Crypt #6 Importal: a rum barrel aged porter from a collaboration between O.H.S.O. (AZ), Goldwater (AZ), & Free Will (PA)  at a mere 13.2% ABV. We also drink and review World Wide Stout (2019) by Dogfish Head (Milton, DE) weighing in at a hefty 16.0% ABV.

We gush over our beloved 49ers and their 5-0 record. It's been 29 years since the last time they had that record to start the season, and it may be another 29 until they repeat that start. So, we are allowed.

SPOLIER ALERT: After we sign off for the episode, we review the Todd Phillips movie Joker. How accurate are we? Email us @ coldbruepodcast@gmail.com and let us know.
