Clearing out the second half of the Lost Podcast Archive, I can here finally present our musings on “Wellington in a Pint”, Beervana 2012 \u2014 and, I’m sure most contentiously, on the acquisition of Emerson’s Brewery by the sprawling conglomeration best-known locally as “Lion”.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The W.I.A.P. four-pack provided an incredibly-varied set of Beers Of The Week and an opportunity to ramble through significant upsides and niggling downsides of each. Then, in the much-more-recent past, George and I were re-determined to get back into the podcasting habit, and wound up \u2014 relatively accidentally \u2014 talking through our reactions to the completely unexpected sale of Emerson’s; the much-loved gateway craft brewery for both of us. I found myself in the middle of the “debate”, such as there was, which was unfamiliar and strange although probably inevitable given the nonsense on both sides.<\/p>\n
Next up is our 2012 Year in Review episode \u2014 and then we’ll see about rebooting ourselves for Season Three. Meanwhile, as always,\u00a0direct downloads are available (here<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0here<\/a>, respectively), there\u2019s a\u00a0podcast-specific RSS feed<\/a>, and you should be able to get us\u00a0on iTunes<\/a>.\u00a0George<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0myself<\/a>\u00a0can also both be reached on the Twitterthing, or you can leave comments here or\u00a0on the Bookface<\/a>.<\/p>\ns02e07: Wellington in a Pint & Beervana<\/strong><\/h3>\n
