Show notes
Welcome back to the Beer O'Clock podcast, it's been a long time between drinks! It's been a little bit hectic on our end but hopefully our schedules are settling down a little bit & we'll be back to regular programing soon. If this is your first time listening to a Beer O'Clock Australia podcast, welcome! We change the segments up a little each month, however most months we'll discuss some of the latest news from the beer world, we'll talk about some beers that we've been enjoying over the last month & we'll crack something interesting from my cellar.. This episode we cover, in true Beer O'Clock fashion, plenty of (very) outdated news, analyze the Hottest 100 that came out almost 2 months ago, drink an impressive Hungarian lager & offer Romania a chance to redeem themselves after the deplorable lager from a few episodes back! Show Notes Intro Back in person!New venue, maybe some sound teething issues...
