In this episode of the Virtual Pub Podcast, Adam and Beef reunite after a winter break for some much-needed pub talk and pints. Between tales of Adam’s youth basketball coaching (future NBA stars, beware!) and Beef’s wife’s legendary eggnog bread, the guys sample Sam Adams’ seasonal brews, relive their epic pub crawl (complete with questionable cocktails and mysterious disappearances), and tackle holiday trivia. Expect hearty laughs, beer geekery, and enough tangents to make you wonder if you’ve had a few yourself. Cheers to friendship, festive drinks, and never drinking alone, unless you count your podcast hosts!

Pull up a barstool, grab your favorite drink, and settle in for another laid-back round at the Virtual Pub with lifelong friends Adam and Beef. In this episode, the guys dive into a tour of regional brews, including the legendary Midwestern favorite, New Glarus Spotted Cow, and swap stories about the best pub crawls they’ve survived (and a few they barely remember).

From there, the nostalgia kicks in as they reminisce about retro video games, debate which classics still hold up.

It’s easygoing, funny, and exactly the kind of conversation you’d expect when two old friends catch up over a pint. So pour one, press play, and join the chat.
