I'm an east coaster so it was a little late but it was fun anyway. I thought Lee and Brian did a great job picking my beer apart and giving an honest opinion (which is what I really want) on the beer. I was pretty amazed at some of the things they picked out. Having the active dialog with the judges is great because it helps you talk through the beers, I also think it helps the judges to talk with the brewers as they are critiquing.
One thing I noticed in listening to the session archives is that they did a LOT of listener tasting and feedback on the older shows. I think they do less of it now and I'm glad they started this show to pick the tasting aspect back up. Overall, I don't think beer tasting is great radio, but the info that comes out around the tasting part is always great. I hope JP keeps this show going.
I'm hoping to be on JP's show too, I currently have an American Stout and a Hibiscus Red Ale at the ready and in another week I'll have a Ginger Saison then after that I'll have a single hopped American Pale Ale. I intend to put aside bottles of everything I brew just in case Jp'll have me on the show.
Oh quick question, where/how can I listen to the show you were on? I don't see it in the available podcast downloads and junk
