Round 157 - 2023 Beer in Review
Episode 157
Wednesday, 27 December, 2023
With the end of another year in sight, The HOP presents a very special 2023 edition of our annual beer in review! The boys (and their livers) put in work again in 2023, having featured a total of 67 beers from 42 breweries this year, including visits to 17 states and 4 countries. If you’re keeping score at home, that brings The HOP grand total to 448 beers over the past 157 episodes, including beer from nearly 200 breweries across 31 U.S. states, as well as Washington D.C. and 5 other countries. This week, after an obligatory shot of whiskey, Stephen & Gabe crack open an “event beer” worthy of the festive occasion, heading out to Illinois for a look at Goose Island’s coveted Bourbon County Stout. We’ll also revisit our favorite toasts of the year and reveal our top 5 beer rankings for 2023. Raise your glass and join us as we ring in 2024 in style! Featured beers: Two variations of Goose Island’s 2022 Bourbon County Stout, (Original & Sir Isaac’s Edition w/ figs.) Plus: With The HOP heading into hibernation, Stephen & Gabe look back and reflect on 4 years of podcasting.
