Root Beer Radio

We made two new brews in two very different methods. Could they be just what we've been searching for? Only time will tell. Take a listen and find out some of the new things we tried with these concoctions! 

We try strange root beers and root beer flavored things, whether we like it or not! This is the first episode in a series of weird root beer flavored things. If you have any weird root beer flavored things we should try, send us a message! 

Join us LIVE at the Minnesota Soda Festival at Blue Sun Soda Shop in Spring Lake Park, MN! In this episode, we discuss the soda festival and speak with Kent Krouch from Dublin Bottling Works and Tim Allen from Whistler Bottling Company and North Star Soda! 

Matt made another root beer, so we'll discuss how it went, along with topics such as: baby shampoo, aliens, and Jumanji!

In this fifth episode of RBR, Dave and Matt discuss the results of our latest Facebook poll and of our latest brew!
