I just discovered this podcast, and I am already a big fan! Dave's brings an "everyman's" approach to his discussion of beer, but you can tell he has a deep knowledge of the subject. His smooth, comfortable delivery is both contemplative and meditative. I also enjoy the news and notes that he includes, as well as his specific knowledge of the Chicago/midwest beer scene. Kudos, Dave! Keep putting thos beers in front of you!
Dave love your voice and your beer can open sound effect! I do not miss the Chicago cold :)

Sierra Nevada I’m gonna have to look out for!

All levels of Beer drinkers will appreciate this well done show. Dave mixes humor and personality with a deep knowledge of Beer resulting in an entertaining and informative Podcast. His passion for his craft is infectious so crack one open, have a drink with Dave and support this Indie Podcaster.
Dave is so easy to listen to. He knows his stuff and loves what he is doing. Love the beer reviews, but there is always humor and other touches added in as well. Great show that is a quick and easy listen!
I'll admit that I'm a beer person that has a stash of what my friend calls "limited edition" beer but it's fun to hear a beer guy like Dave bring back some old classics / beer that can be found at bottle shops. He knows how to talk about beer but isn't a snob about it.
