Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! We are getting in the Holiday Spirits and will be checking out a few different drinks for the rest of the year as we take a little break from beer. We start off with a cookie flavored brandy that is absolutely delicious. We find a reviewer that thinks it reminds them of a timid hug.

This week we get to learn about Cookie Monster. COOOKIEEEEE! We explore his early start in some commercials and training videos and the word snatch comes up way too often. We also discuss his start on Sesame Street and what it takes to feed him all those cookies! We also get stuck on a sprite pancakes tangent. We end with a few fun facts and discuss how cookies are supposed to be a sometimes food.

P.S. Happy belated birthday, Cookie Monster!

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! For our Halloween episode, we check out our scariest drink yet, Beware of Darkness! One reviewer leads us down the path of how many wood types we think we could taste. We also discuss the can art and find some comment drama again.

This week we check out bedsheet ghosts and what makes them spooky! We start with the tale of the Hammersmith Ghost Murder to get us in the Halloween spirit. We of course, have a few questions about this ghost story. Somehow we end up discussing Jean Valjean? We then explore where bedsheet ghosts came from. Who knew burial shrouds would come into play! We also check out modern uses of that style of ghost and some famous appearances in movies.

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! This week we get our shortest review ever, but it might have some staying power! Another reviewer seems to be confused about whether or not they like the smell of beer.

Our topic this week is the chequered flag. We explore its ties to Oktoberfest and the Bavarian sky. We also talk through the myths about its origin before we get to the real one. Midwestern past-time of horse racing and dinner seem to play a big role and we check out some of its uses outside of racing.

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! This week we check out the Oktoberfest from 4 Hands Brewing. We are a little light on reviews but we make up for it with a show first!

This week we created the 4-Armed Tournament. Chris chose 8 characters with 4 arms and Branden chose tasks for them to do. Our contestants this week are General Grievous, Stitch, Pennywise, Goro, Doc Oc, Tien, Four Arms, and Machamp! Who is the better piano player? How would they do in a swimming race? Will Goro's high ponytail impact him in anyway? How much did we underestimate Pennywise? Join us this week and see how your favorite 4-armed character does in our tournament!

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! We are excited to continue our Oktoberfest journey with Oktoberfest from 2nd Shift Brewery. We find someone who describes their beer as "chewy", but luckily the wife liked it. Another reviewer finds the perfect description for the opposite of a lingering aftertaste.

This week we decided to explore lederhosen and boy, did we learn a lot! Mick Jagger is mentioned more than once and we get caught up on an antler button. We find the rabbit hole of learning about a cod piece and realize we need to save up some money! Stay tuned the rest of the month as we continue our own Oktoberfest and end with a special Halloween episode!

Special thanks to Miriam Gog for editing this episode along with the previous one!

We are back from a short break with more beer and more topics. We kick off our October with a festbier from KC BierCo. This week we check out some reviews that were only pictures. Although he takes a picture for each individual can that he drinks. And why do we know what pennies taste like?

We also take a look at the history of biscuits and gravy. We discuss making biscuits before modern conveniences. We also breakdown several types of gravy. Who knew such a breakfast staple could have so many variations? You won't want to miss out on hearing about sawmill gravy and red-eye gravy!

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! This week we check out Dominican Water. As one of us went to visit the Dominican Republic to end the summer we thought this would be the perfect beer to end the season of the lighter side. One of our reviewers really enjoyed add lime while the other may have fallen in love with this beer.

We explored The Dominican Republic's past. Did you know that Christopher Columbus had a brother? We also discuss the origin of the name and one of the weaker claims to sainthood. There's quite a few major events in their past but we ultimately end talking about baseball and why KC hates Robinson Cano so much!

Welcome back to another week of Short Pour! This week we checked out a drink called Lil Buddy and it sure lived up to the name. It's just a lil guy! One reviewer was just happy the beer wasn't fruity and another wants to start their toddler on it?

We also discussed Air Bud and looked back at the classic movie. Boy, Norm Snively sure was creepy. We take a look at the role olive oil played in Air Bud's shooting success. Also, why was Larry's face so punchable? The entire line of movies featuring animals playing sports has gone off the rails. There's a wrestling Jack Russel terrier?
