Origins: Iowa and the Quest for the Perfect Beer Temperature

Our second Origins episode has finally arrived!  This time Adam takes us to his home state of Iowa to talk about the cold, the drinking traditions, and even a shout out to his high school prom date.  And if that’s not enough, we’re doing another patented Beering Ain’t Easy beer experiment - tasting 2 different Midwest stouts at 3 different temperatures to let you, the listener, know which beer temperature is the most ideal for your drinking enjoyment.  Have your thermometers at the ready!
