The Ales and Tales Podcast

Finding and reviewing good beer for all. It’s hard work, but somebody has to do it. Every beer must be thoroughly explored, examined, sipped and sampled; tested for our listeners’ enjoyment. Bad ones, we suffer through...so you don’t have to. The good ones?...well, that’s just a bonus!

Summer is the perfect time to think about cold beer from a cold place.  Einstök comes in hot with a limited edition Arctic "Bilberry" flavored version of their white ale.  This episode, we give both of them a try...check it out and DEFINITELY check out the commercial that Ben mentions.  It's actually "Einstök: Face the Darkness."  Great commercial.  Also, please like and subscribe to the podcast to get updates, and let us know what you think.  You can find us on Instagram @thealesandtalespodcast and Facebook as well.
