Hosted by Russ and Tony, each episode is 12 to 70 minutes of passionate blather about a beer and a song. We drink the beer. We listen to the song. Disagreement and ridicule abound. Sometimes there is more than one beer. Sometimes there are no songs. Sometimes there are multiple songs. There has never been no beer.

#125 – The Hop Project Lemon & Grassy and Carly Rae Jepsen
Summer is *just* loosening its grip a bit, so here we have a crisp, refreshing episode before surely tumbling into six dark months of barrel-aged barley wines and sludge doom. Despite what is easily one of Russ’s least good pouring jobs ever, we managed to drink Lemon & Grassy from The Hop Project, which is the latest imprint from the Port Brewing / Lost Abbey folks. I struggled a bit to clearly (and accurately) describe Lost Abbey, mentioning I thought it was a Belgian-inspired theme. Well, I was right, so nyah. A quick lap around the episode guide seems to indicate we’ve never reviewed a beer from either Port or Lost Abbey. WTF?
In keeping with the crisp and refreshing theme, we listen to a track from Carly Rae Jepsen’s new album, Emotion. Longtime listeners might remember we last listened to Ms. Jepsen on episode 11, almost exactly three years ago.
One show note: We mentioned looking up the medical term for people who are disgusted by mouth noises and then promptly didn’t do it. Misophonia – From Wikipedia: Misophonia, literally “hatred of sound”, is a rarely diagnosed disorder, commonly thought to be of neurological origin, in which negative emotions (anger, flight, hatred, disgust) are triggered by specific sounds.
