We really do suggest you go to Tongue in Cheek, and if not in an area that you can get to this specific restaurant, you should find something in your local area that is similar, as the meal can be an experience in and of itself. Aaron and his wife really enjoyed their trip to Tongue in Cheek, and plan to go back again soon, and any place you can find with a similar mission will be well worth the time and expense for a nice night out.

Also, if you all have suggestions for a Brunch tour in the Twin Cities, or any locale close to you, let us know, we need more places to go to and experience for you, and give our reactions to.

We haven't taken any photos of the new PC yet, as we're waiting for the desk to be completed, and we're really excited for that to come to be.

We really appreciate you all, and hope you have a great Thanksgiving, and we really are looking forward to completing our first year as a podcast!

Episode #142 3rd Act Brewing

In today's episode we talk about 3rd Act Brewing

Taste a Berliner Weisse from 3rd Act

Finally, we discuss the history of 3rd Act Brewing

While Andrea really enjoys the Berliner Weisse, while Aaron found it didn't mesh with his own palette, as many of the beers that he tastes do.

The Wiki for the Berliner Weisse is not super long, but is an interesting read.

3rd Act Brewing  is located in Woodbury, MN, and has a beautiful taproom there, you can find more about their list of available brews and menu options here.

The Randall (officially known as Randall the Enamel Animal) is an interesting device, and we're sure it will come up again in future episodes. It was indeed originated by Dogfish Head Brewing, we do enjoy when we're right about things.

We're really excited to share our thoughts from our Saint Paul Brewery Crawl starting in a few episodes, so stay tuned for that!

Also, you just have to check out the little hype train that VW is making for their concept elecric vehicles, including the BUZZ that Andrea so adores.

And seriously check out the video of the Solar Powered yacht mansionthat Aaron was talking about.

In further research, the Crowler craze is mostly of the 32 oz size, and 26 is less standard around the country. You can learn more about the Crowler from this infographic.

From our conversation about their merch, please check out the Crowler Carrier we misidentified as a cooler.

We as always would love your support for our own merch, and in particular check out the new This is not Alcohol Mug!

Sadly we never could remember the name of that other brewery down the road, but rest assured, when we do, we'll mention it on the show or on the blog!
