EPISODE 40: Beer Me Up Scotty As the snow starts to fall, November begins to pass us by, and the last thursday of the month approaches, it begs the question: WERE THERE EXTRATERRESTRIALS PRESENT AT THE FIRST THANKSGIVING?! While there’s no record of aliens NOT attending the first feast, there ARE records of UFO sightings in New York State. We skim through YouTube videos of UFOs caught on local newscasts, records of sightings in our neighborhoods on nuforc.org, and a controversial visit the Men in Black took to Niagara Falls. Does this episode seem too out there for you? We also discuss the possible, and very real explanations behind sightings all over the U.S. like Top Secret programs operated out of Groom Lake salt flats [Area 51], and the companies behind them. While Lockheed Martin led those operations in the Nevada desert, they also continue research today at a location in Niagara Falls, New York. You may also hear the Imperial March play in your head when we talk about Northrop Grumman and their push to make space weapons and Star Wars a reality. Sit back and listen as we cover all this and more while sipping on two intergalactic themed beers. How could we properly walk the line of conspiracies without getting spaced out on DIPAs by two of our favorite breweries. First we take on Radio the Mothership by Collective Arts, which is lighter in color than our second beer, but brings more effervescence and packs a boozier punch. Next we drink Space Kitty by Rohrbach Brewing Company which has a bronze hue, and balances the bitterness with some much welcomed malt. Alright, put on your tinfoil hats, get in your cardboard box rocket ship, and have a listen! . . . #historypodcast #beerpodcast #buffalopodcasts #thanksgiving #aliensarereal

🍺NEW EPISODE🍺 This episode we throw things back and go back to our roots: this is our Buffalo Brewing Company episode! Surprisingly, we’ve only just had our first experience drinking with them in the last month! They’re a two-year-old brewery that carries the same namesake as a brewery from a century ago, making beers reminiscent of yesteryears. . . . #drinklocal #drinknythinkny #beerpodcast #historypodcast #buffalopodcasts

Picked up a sixpack tonight. #beerpodcast #beer #winteriscoming #isitchristmasyet

Minisode #4 is up for ya’ll! We’ve dubbed it the “7 oz. Episode”. This one is a themeless rambling where we talk about our week, past episodes, macro beers, and our Untappd game! Have a spare half hour? Get listening right meow!

It’s Friday woo!! 🎉 No new episode boo!! 👎🏻 After four weeks of some solid podcasting we’re taking the week off! BUT everybody knows that when we ‘take the week off’ that we release a seat of our pants minisode, so be on the lookout for that this weekend! Plus, Shower Beer Thoughts #9 is finished up and will be posted this weekend as well! Until next week, have yourself a local beer or two or three, and enjoy this RARE, NEVER BEFORE SEEN photo of Haley and I after a night of ‘podcast research & development’. Cheers! 🍻 . . . #drinklocal #thinknydrinkny #historypodcast #beerpodcast #buffalopodcasts #blogging
