We did it again. Our lust for recording is insatiable, and we’ve curated another Mixed Twelve episode block. Listen to the first half of our bad decision this week, and catch up with the aftermath in next week’s Patron Extra (PE 21). Fittingly for a Texas-sized block of drunken microphone rodeo, all the beers in both episodes are from Texas. The topics are smaller than that, but, you know, still respectable: like, Tennessee-sized topics. At least. Live Oak Brewing Co’s Big Bark Amber Lager: Spencer got to dweeb out about his favorite Euro last time, so Caleb takes a moment to Dissect Our Fun by talking about Lowlands…the game of amorous sheep and natural disasters.
Austin Beerworks Flavor Country Hoppy Pale Ale: The Mixed Six Mock Draft asks the experts to fill the missing members of Trump’s cabinet with fictional characters. We try, though there will probably be a dozen more vacancies by the time we post this.
Darwin Brewing Co’s Llama Mama Milk Stout: Binge Binger covers the slow, pitiful death of the serialized superhero television show.
Blue Owl Brewing Little Boss Sour Session Wheat: Ask Mixed Six is having a FIRE SALE! (just imagine a sound effect here)
Pair O’ Dice Brewing Company Clearwater Honey Cream: In This Was a Mistake, we cave to the demands of a newly published game designer gone mad with power and allow Ross to talk about Warhammer 40K.
Live Oak Hefeweizen Bavarian-Sytle Weissbier: Finally Drunk Enough, guys who get money to sit around and drink agree that the “hard work reaps reward” ethos has to go, but what could replace it?

Weeee’rrrreee back! After a long hiatus, we have returned. It’s a new year, new podcast with…a food-based rating system from Spencer. Damn. Change is hard. At least we’re trying a hot new brewery for the first time: Side Project Brewing. We’ve also got a new mascot in the form of a terrifying trash homunculus! 2019 is going to be the best year ever!
We got caught! Cheese-it! It’s the fuzz! (Just go with it; it’ll make sense in a second) Anyway, we did an episode on the run from the beer assassins come to exact revenge. We talk about Christmas decorations, writing utensils, and a crack cereal-mascot commando team.
It is our 50th episode. Absolutely crazy things have come this far. Thank you so much for helping us make this silly show so big and successful. To celebrate on our end, we brought in nearly an entire episode of our fan favorite brewer: Stillwater Artisinal Ales. Join us as we run the tastebud gauntlet!
You know what people love? Holiday-themed segments in podcasts posted WELL after the holiday has past. Even better? If it’s an advice question whose utility has long ago expired? You know who has two thumbs and is great at podcasting? (visual joke…another thing that works great in podcasts)
Unless you’re listening to the fine audio stylings of the Mixed Six, you can’t win them all. For instance, we can’t win them all with beer tastings; sometimes you come up snake eyes on the ratings system…and the rating system is made by Spencer. Really, we just need to prepare for a beating on this one. It’s going to hurt.
Oh god…
It’s Maddy’s final episode state-side, and what better way to say goodbye than to drink a bunch of beers on a microphone (incidentally, this is also how we said “hello” and “it’s a Tuesday”; it’s the only language we know). Before we send our ambassador back to the other side of the world, let’s get up to our beer rating shenanigans one last time!
