Episode 39 sees the boys revisit a couple of beers from last year, with the 2019 (and sadly last) edition of Omnipollo & Buxton's 'Yellow Belly' and a 'Neutron Star' from Atom Brewery that has been kept for over a year. We also try out the 'Jambo' from Wild Beer, talk about our 'beer fears' & Bottom's Up machines and pray that Tom has learnt how to open a wax-topped beer now. Enjoy!

Episode 38 and the boys travel to The Two-Tailed Lion in Leicester! Featuring 'Five Hop' from Hawkshead Brewery, 'For The Purpose Of Clarity' by Wylam and 'Madagascan Porter' from Black Iris Brewery, one of which becomes the current Beer of the Year for Mark! The guys also discuss their best Twitter interactions following their surprise response from Brewdog. Enjoy!

Episode 37 and the guys return to the Beerhouse to take on some tasty collaborations! Featuring the 'City' from Tiny Rebel & Magic Rock, the 'Tropical Sorbet' from Tiny Rebel & Neon Raptor, and the 'Greed' from Braybrooke and Beavertown. We also debate over Aldi and Lidl beers, and Tom brings a new quiz to the table! Enjoy!

Episode 36 and the first episode of 2019 sees the boys take on three more local beers and talk about their New Year hopes and ambitions for MBB. Featuring 'Kinky Boots' from Phipps, 'Pow Wow' from Langton Brewery and 'Loosehead' from Blackpit Brewery. Enjoy!

Episode 35 and our last of 2018 sees the boys open their #BeerySecretSanta presents, with some fantastic results! We also reflect on 2018 and get tucked in to one of the beers. Enjoy! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Episode 34 sees the boys pick out a selection of beers they've never had from some of the UK's leading supermarkets; the 'Perfect Pilsner' from Bad Co. brewed exclusively for Asda, Waitrose's 'Duchy Organic' IPA from Wychwood Brewery and the 'Hyde & Wylde Oatmeal Stout' from Marston's Brewery brewed exclusively for Sainsbury's. We also pick further unanswered questions out from our previous Q&A session from the Cannonball Run, and Mark has a shocking revelation.... Enjoy!

Episode 33 sees the boys once again at the Beerhouse sampling 4 beers from Cloudwater Brewery, all on cask, from their AW 2018 range. They try the 'Porter', the 'Brown', the 'Pale Ale' and the 'DDH Pale Ale'. They also discuss the importance of cask in the craft beer scene (with some big help from Twitter followers), 'muzak' and the birth of the greatest jazz musician you've never heard of. Enjoy!

Episode 32 sees the boys back at their favourite pub, the Beerhouse, trying 3 locally brewed beers; the 'Electric Landlady' from Baker's Dozen, the 'Bullseye' from Langton Brewery and the 'Of Juice' from Three Hills Brewery. We also discuss our favourite superlative, Tom becomes a master chooser of beers for non-beer drinkers and Ashley gets rather a long new nickname. Enjoy!

Episode 31 and we head to Braybrooke Farm in Leicestershire to talk to Luke and Mario from Braybrooke Beer Co. about their journey into producing craft lagers, and sample the 'New Zealand Pils' and the 'Keller Lager'. Enjoy!

Episode 30 and the boys are back! It's the 2nd Takeover episode where we feature three beers from the fantastic Bristol brewery Arbor Ales. We try out their 'Mosaic' pale ale, their 'Shangri-La' session IPA and their 'A-Bomb' Amarillo pale. We also catch up on our drinks over the extended break, talk Brut IPA's, and admire Ashley's brilliant description of Butter Beer from Harry Potter. Enjoy!

Episode 29 and the boys delve into the world of Trappist beers. Featuring the 'La Trappe Tripel' from Bierbrouwerij De Koningshoeven, and the 'Tynt Meadow' from Mount Saint Bernard Brewery, the UK's first and world's 12th Trappist brewery from our own neck of the woods in Leicestershire! The boys also take part in a 'bootylicious' quiz, Mark reveals his rap name, and the guys fondly remember the now (sadly) defunct Market Harborough brewery. Enjoy!
