After a visit to Iowa, Shawn and Mike return with fresh reviews of Flat Earth Brewing Company’s Monkey Business and Olde Main’s Sodbuster. Both of these beers were purchased with the idea of hometown stout in mind and transported in growlers. The Monkey Business is a coconut-infused porter from Flat Earth Brewing in St. Paul, Minnesota; and the Sodbuster is the recently named To Be Named stout from Olde Main in Ames, Iowa.

    Hey I liked the last podcast!

    The mention of soda water from the bartender reminded me of a practice here in Buenos Aires. When you go to a coffee shop, it is very common to be served a small shot of soda water alongside your coffee. It is wonderful for refreshing your mouth after a strong coffee. I hadn’t thought of it with beer. Very cool.
