SHOW NOTES:

Dusty & Erik revisit the Maple Nut Brown Ale from Tommyknocker Brewery in Idaho Springs, CO. If you remember all the way back to episode 5 they resoundingly panned this brew.  This time the boys are pleasantly surprised.  Plus, they sample some of Denver based  Great Divide’s Raspberry Ale… and it’s one tasty brew.
