    Hooligans Of Hops

    We are a one of a kind beer podcast with a "no snob" attitude. We try craft beers from the outlook of the average beer drinker. While we sample and rate beers of all kinds, we banter, tell stories to discuss a wide variety of topics. Strong language, NSFW.

    Bear Attack Interrupts Nostalgia Crisis

    A strange name for a wild episode! The Hooligans are ready to try new beers as they have conversations about early childhood cartoons and toys they and growing up. It may or may not make them feel old. They also talk punk rock and their influences from the genre, also talk about and try beers from a brewery that Kev came across that is pretty impressive.  Rick not only tells us about his experience watching a very random movie about Gargoyles from the 70's, but he absolutely loses his shit about a really bad beer he found and it's heated!
