I continue with Chad's package. The second beer is a stout and comes out better than the pumpkin ale. See for yourself.

Imperial Pumking (#74)

And I am back. Welcome to season 4 of Girl Likes Beer podcast. There are (or there will be) some few minor changes but not many.
I want to apologize for the delay. I really though I could start season 4 a month ago but this turned out to be impossible. I am really glad you were willing to wait. Enjoy the first episode! Cheers:)

Bud (#24)

Today I am looking at another side of the Budweiser trademark dispute. Few episodes back I tried Budejovicky budvar. Luckily I was able to find the other Budweiser in my local supermarket. It is sold here as Bud since the Anheuser Busch can use Budweiser brand only in the US.

So let's see what is this beer really about...

Miller Genuine Draft (#13)

This time I come back a bit faster with some new stuff. First, I got a beer out of the Beer Trip batch. Second, I got a video review. Third, I somehow forgot to make a picture... Last time I promise.

So we will try today an American one called Miller Genuine Draft. A cold filtered beer which gives a draft beer (or tap beer if you will) in a bottle.
