TBG 36: NWSL & US Women's National Soccer Team Update

In this pod special, we discussed the recent NWSL Draft, the recent founding of the North Carolina Courage, and FIFA & CONCACAF awards bestowed upon several of the players from the United States Women's National Team. The other big news to cover was USWNT stars opting to postpone their NWSL play (or leave the NWSL completely) for a chance to play in Europe. With Ron still under the weather, Ferris and Blake were joined in the studio by local NWSL and women's soccer expert Caitlin Elliott.

Since Caitlin was visiting our studio live for the first time, she wanted to provide the beer of the pod. She picked a good one in Green Man Brewery's delicious porter. We had a lot to say about this beer.

TBG 35: Premier League Week 21 | MLS Update | 48 Team World Cup

Ron was feeling under the weather, so for this Premier League episode, we are joined in the studio by our resident NWSL expert and Hull City fan, Caitlin Elliott. After talking Premier League, we also discuss some MLS news and FIFA's expansion to a 48 team World Cup.

Ferris had the beer pick this week and chose to go with a London beer in honor of a London crowded top 4 of the table. Fuller's London Pride made for a delicious pairing to this episode.

TBG 34: Premier League Matchdays 19 & 20 - Midseason Sackings - Scorpion Kicks

Our 34th episode, and the first one of the new year! We can hardly belive how the time has flown. So here's what we are talking about in this episode. After the Premier League has stuffed as many matches as possible at the end of December, and the beginning of the new year, we have a lot of to talk about. We also look back at the predictions we made at the beginning of the season to see how they are faring. We talk about the Premier League's great manager culling of the bottom teams, and also take a look at the national call-ups for USA's Men and Women's National Teams.

The beer review for this episode was a fancy one. Ron introduced us to the Belgian made Trignac XII from Castle Brewery Von Honsebrouck. It was a Belgian Trippel aged in congac barrels. Give a listen to see what we think of it. It was so fancy, we had to drink pinkies out.

Pinkies out!

Pinkies out!

Thanks for joining us for our first year. We hope you have a happy 2017.

TBG 33: Premier League Boxing Day Special 2016 - Year End Soccer Roundup

This is our Boxing Day Special. After watching all the Premier League Boxing Day matches, we stepped into the studio to talk about those games, and wrap up the soccer year so far.

Since this was our first Boxing Day Special, Blake decided to go big with the Christmas beers. They are all from Belgium, they are all delicious, and they will all keep you warm on a cold night.

The first was the Christmas Ale from St. Bernardus, followed by the Gouden Carolus Noël, and we finished off with the Scaldis Noël from Dubuisson. There was a lot of good discussion about these beers (and good discussion BECAUSE of these beers).

We hope you all have had a happy holiday season. Thanks for joining us along the way. Here's to 2017!

Cheers!

TBG 32: Premier League Week 17 and Alex Morgan to France

We gathered together a few days before Christmas to talk a bit about recent Premier League matches, and some soccer news that is closer to home for us Orlando-based soccer fans. We called up our resident NWSL and all women's soccer expert, Caitlin Elliot, to discuss the recent news of Alex Morgan deciding to play a part of next season in the France. This will leave her missing a few months of the upcoming season with the Orlando Pride. We also discussed Caitlin's unfortunate choice of becoming a Hull supporter in the Premier League this year. At least she got a sweet Hull City onesie out of it.

Since it is close to Christmas, Blake introduced the crew to the legend of Krampus with Southern Tier Brewing's seasonal Imperial Helles Lager. You can enjoy his dramatic reading of the legend of this Krampus beer. Sound effects were provided live by Ron and Ferris.

Santa Yoda is keeping us safe from Krampus.

We will be recording a special Boxing Day episode immediately following the Premier League matches on Boxing Day, so be on the lookout for that. We'll also be live-tweeting during the matches.

From the whole crew here at the Brewtiful Game, we wish you a very merry Christmas, happy holidays, and have a wonderful new year!
