In Episode 161 we continue with our hop sessions, this time diving into some of the more popular American style hops. These hops are in almost all your favorite hoppy beers, so we thought it was important to discuss them. We also discuss an article about a brewery that is making soft serve beer ice cream. Plus we offer a lot of random beer talk as well. So grab a beer and enjoy the show!
