Howdy friends, it’s another episode of our Homebrew Happy Hour!

These last 7 or so days have been rough here in Texas but we definitely appreciate all of the prayers, donations, and volunteers that have come to pitch in towards the relief efforts. This week, our usual co-host, Todd Burns, couldn’t be on the show because he’s volunteering in Rockport BUT we still have a great show for you guys as Joshua and James take your questions on beer styles, BJCP guidelines, and experiences entering your homebrew into local competitions. We think you’re gonna love it!

Hello friends! Since the last time we’ve met, a LOT has gone on in the homebrew industry. Specifically, a LOT has gone on between two of the largest independently owned homebrew supply companies!

We’re so excited to announce that Todd Burns of Kegconnection LLC has purchased HomebrewSupply.com! Most of you are already familiar with HBS as they’ve made a huge impact on the online market even in the relatively short amount of time they’ve been around (3’ish years). Their site has always been enviously beautiful, and their customer service has always been exceptional!

For today’s episode, we welcome one of the HBS guys who has been around since their beginning, Ladik Joe Ermis. Joe’s an avid homebrewer and wore a lot of hats during his time at HBS! We think you’re going to really enjoy this interview and hope you stay tuned for more information regarding the relaunch of HomebrewSupply.com!

Friends, have we got an awesome episode of our Homebrew Happy Hour podcast for you today with our special guest, Jim Miller!

For those who don’t know him by name, Jim is a professional mixed martial artist currently fighting for the Ultimate Fighting Championship in their lightweight (155lb) division. Jim has fought pretty much every person who matters in the division (beating the bulk of them too!) and holds the current record for number of wins in that division. His fighting resume truly is impressive.

What’s even more impressive, to us, is his passion for homebrewing. Jim’s been at it a while and in this episode we dive into his history as a homebrewer, his favorite styles to brew, his favorite styles to drink, and what the future post-UFC might look like if he took his brewing to the professional level.

In case you missed last week’s 50th episode celebration, first let us say how much we appreciate you all and how much FUN we had last week!

Moving forward from episode 50, today’s show is a great conversation on dry hopping. We’ve addressed some dry hopping Q’s in the past but today’s show is themed to elaborate a little bit more than we’ve done before.

Also, we are officially recognizing CMBecker International’s James Carlson as our permanent 3rd co-host! You guys have left such great feedback on James and, frankly, he’s a wealth of knowledge that was bound to start his own show if we didn’t make him an offer he couldn’t refuse (spoiler alert: free beer!).

It may have taken us a couple of years to get here, but we’ve made it to Episode 50!

On this episode, we celebrated by livestreaming the audio and video to you guys through our Facebook page. We took some of your questions about the show, discussed some of our favorite moments, and Joshua even paid up on his end of the deal with Todd and shaved live on the stream.

It wasn’t pretty…

Welcome to another fun filled episode of our #Homebrew Happy Hour podcast!

Thanks to the powers of the internet, Joshua & Todd connect via Google Hangouts to discuss questions on homebrewing and keg temperatures in this episode. PLUS — Todd points out that Joshua hasn’t shaved his beard yet while Joshua points out that Todd has to grow the equivalent of a real man’s beard before he does… so that buys him a good 6 months, probably?
