Have you ever dared to step out of your beer comfort zone and into the bold world of bourbon barrel-aged stouts? That's exactly what we did when we wrapped our taste buds around New Holland Brewing Company's Dragon's Milk. We're venturing into the deep, rich flavors of their iconic stout and sipping on a variety of Milk Reserve flavors like coffee, chocolate, s'mores, and oatmeal cookie. As we usually cheers with IPAs and lighter ales, this stout saga is a rich departure, and we're here to share our unfiltered thoughts on how these heavy hitters might just be the perfect complement to your next hearty meal.

Remember the time when a film series could take you from the innocence of youth to the complexities of adulthood? Our conversation nostalgically winds down the cobblestone paths of the Harry Potter universe, comparing the growth of this magical franchise to others we've seen evolve over time. We're revealing personal tales from the unexpected joy of sports broadcasts to the dynamic world of spectator sports, proving that it's not just about beer on our show. And, in a twist of fate, one of us confesses to never having read a single page of Harry Potter – can you believe it?

Wrapping up our eclectic chat, we whisk you away on a quirky detour through Chicago and share how an off-the-grid couple's eco-friendly use of their own waste sparked both intrigue and a few raised eyebrows. We're also uncapping the innovative ways Dragon's Milk has influenced the brewing and distilling scene, from a game-changing reverse aging process to a pioneering beer barrel bourbon. It's a full-bodied journey of taste, pop culture, and adventures you didn't see coming. So pour yourself a glass, and let's raise a toast to the unexpected.
