Beats, Beards & Brews


Lifelong friends unite to review music, give beard advice and drink beer.

May 12, 2021

Whip out those calendars! In a momentous moment in Beats, Beards & Brews history, Evan, Eric and Dan prove that they are true podcast professionals when they manage to bounce back from not one ... but two recording hiccups where Evan and then Eric got dropped from the recording completely and everyone kept their cool. We're going to assume that Evan did minimal to no edits on this one!

Speaking of true professionals ... those Gojira boys! Wowee! The Frenchmen's seventh studio album Fortitude defies all of the metal genre labels to become the first official Onyx Groove Metal album. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? You better listen to find out!

Gojira songs previewed on this episode include:

  1. Born for One Thing
  2. The Trails
  3. Amazonia

For the beard portion of the pod, Eric drops a review of a funky little Sriracha-top beard wash and conditioner from Beard Octane. Dan gets enraged by Eric's suggestion that he has found a go-to hot sauce to top the spicy kitchen staple — Yellowbird, y'all!

Beard Octane products reviewed on this episode include:

  1. Citrafella Lather Conditioning Wash
  2. Neutral Beard Conditioner

Finally, in the beer portion of the episode, everyone drinks War Tree IPA aka "Strawburied IPA" by War Tree Brewing. This 7.5% IPA features an intriguing mix of passion fruit, pear and strawberry flavors combined with Sundew yeast and Belma hops. Prepare your ears, grab a beverage and hit play on the latest episode of Beats, Beards & Brews!
