Doing the ultimate vertical of the wettest of dreams (I mean mouth watering you sick minded people...) this week and then finished with a wonderful special variant selection. ...

Episode 88: How'd You Get in Here This episode starts with something special... More odd and questionable though we assure you all he REALLY was just fulfilling a promise made back during the bottle share a few months ago, and maybe a bit of hair of the dog from the wedding he was at the day before recording, congrats again to Mr. Matt, who has been on the show a few times, and his new wife Ashley!! Joined again by brewery regular ...

Episode 87: Mystery Can 2.5 With brother Darrel ALMOST giving away the surprise final beverage at the beginning of this episode, he and Johnny TRY to pull over a "mystery can" (with a trick can) surprise on Mr. Jim... In doing the best they could to commit to the part to TRY and pull this over on him, they TOTALLY failed, thus the .5 part of the title... We WILL try again, and probably shouldn't try and do it with Jim's 2nd holiest...

Episode 86: Gins of Enjoyment Welcoming Mr. Keith back to the show, the guys are doing another liquor episode this week while enjoying some of his favorite drinks, Gin!

With some on again off again BS through the rest of the...

Episode 83: Garage beer with Matt Welcoming Mr. Matt back to the show, the guys get right into the beer this time. For the first bit of the episode anyways, conversation remains fairly on topic about beer. Moving a bit off topic to ai generated songs from Kind of the Hill, then back to beer. Moving onto some wild stories from Johnny's youth and in combination with some talk of the old Biscos "gentlemens club" from back in the day.....

Episode 82: We Have Beer Starting the episode off with one of our most enthusiastic openings yet, the guys start off with the first of a few wonderful Crowlers Mr. Jim brought from  local brewery "War Water Brewery".

Moving into the next topic of discussion, mead comes back to the forefront! Talking about ways to manipulate the outco...

Episode 78: BAKED This is an interesting episode, Mr. Jim unfortunately was a bit under the weather and last minute was unable to make it on recording day. We had a special guest lined up who made some AMAZING cupcakes for us so we of course had to still do an episode so apologies to Mr. Jim, you missed some FANTASTIC cupcakes and some good beers too! We will see you next week though! Nonetheless we had a fantastic time with Lois o...

Episode 77: Mystery Can Starting off the episode with a "Mystery Beer" Johnny brought to the show. Tune in for the interesting details about that one AND how Johnny actually kinda screwed up a joke he tried to pull on Brother Darrell, though listen for the dings when Darrell guesses correct details... Comparing some differences between that one and a fresh pour of the same beer, the guys note some changes that happened when it was ...

Episode 76: Sour we've done before Welcoming back Steve and Maureen from last weeks episode, we are back to beers this week!

A fun story about Johnny's mom from a ...

Episode 74: ALIVE but not LIVE Following last weeks higher gravity episode, Mr. Keith joins the guys again for more wonderful discussions about beer and bullshit.

Getting a bit off topic the guys discuss some wines and meads and get a bit into how some Michigan breweries h...

Episode 73: Switch Up In a slightly different content type in today's episode, the guys get into some pretty strong stuff in some special bourbons, scotch and moonshines. Don't worry though, there is a purpose in some discussions of the SOB beverage releasing later this year from Starr Craft. Joined part way through the episode by mug club member and karaoke regular Mr. Keith, the guys backtrack a little bit to get him caught up be...

Episode 72: Woof Woof Once again we at High Gravity would like to extend our heartfelt apologies to Bre's dad Carl, based on last weeks episode you should have had an idea this episode would be the same or worse than last weeks though so from here forward, it's on your sir, hope you enjoy the show otherwise haha! Starting with MOSTLY on topic beer conversation, from talking in weird accents (quite poorly) to talking about cheese an...

Episode 71: Bre's Wife Joined by Commercial House owners Craig and Bre, the guys start out similar to last week with a few fairly strong breakfast themed beers.
