Round 144 - 'MURICA! (2023)

<p>American beer, like much of American culture, is a melting pot of history and identity, owing much to styles that originated in Germany, England, Belgium and elsewhere. This week, with the 4th of July just around the corner, The HOP visits 4 different locations, sampling a wide variety of drinks crafted in celebration of the red, white &amp; blue! Gabe kicks things off at Citizen Cider, a Burlington-based craft cider house, before heading back home to NYC for a stop at Bronx Brewery. Meanwhile, Stephen remains in the Green Mountain State, paying visits to both Red Barn Brewing and Simple Roots. And in another edition of our This Week in Gross segment, our friends north of the border are putting apples in lagers . . . we have a few questions. </p> <p>Featured drinks: Citizen Cider AmeriCran, Red Barn Brewing Longview Lager, Bronx American Pale Ale &amp; Simple Roots American Dream. Plus: Stephen puts a pair of American tech CEOs on absolute blast.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thehop/message
