About Yet Another Beer Show

For a quick crash course in what we’re about, give this short video a look:

We choose the beer and get to drink it, too!

In the long tradition of online beer reviewing podcasts, the world has yet another choice. Started early in 2010 by two beer enthusiasts from San Francisco, Yet Another Beer Show is a semi-regular video podcast where you’ll find, more often than not, two dudes reviewing one beer. Since the beginning, we’ve strived to find interesting, yet accessible beers for folks to go out and find and try on their own.

Meet the Original YABBERS, JT and Colin

This whole thing started when JT asked Colin if he’d be interested in reviewing a few beers… on camera… and the Internet. Colin’s a bit of a whore for attention, so starting a web show isn’t a hard sell for him. So, thus, the two started reviewing some of their favorite beers, recording the debacle, and posting the results online and Yet Another Beer Show was born.

If you’re curious to check out some of their early exploits, here’s a list of some choice early episodes:

• The Very First Episode
• An on-site review of beer in a can
• Us putting whipped cream on an epically great beer
• It’s beer named after a pirate!
• Having a party with some free schwag
• Check out our early work at the back of the episode guide

After a series of great episodes, tragedy was looming as Colin had plans to move back to his east coast homeland with his fiance. With their collective passion for rating good brews, however, JT and Colin decided to turn the show into a long distance relationship.

And hence….

They Split Coasts and Brought in Some New Dudes!

In order to make the show work, JT and Colin both tapped some of their closest friends in order to each produce their own version of Yet Another Beer Show, creating East and West editions of the show.

The original San Francisco show features JT and his partner-in-crime, Steve, who brings an enthusiasm for beer and even home based brewing to his reviews. Together, Steve and JT explore some of the best craft and specialty beers available to them in and around the Bay Area. Steve also led the show for the first of our home brewing features, creating his own recipe Porter.

Back on the east coast, based out of sunny Philadelphia, Chris and Kasey help Colin review beers from up and down the eastern seaboard. Well, neither show necessarily stays within any boundaries, but the focus is always on trying to pinpoint delicious, interesting beers that you can actually go out and find on your own.

So that’s the story of Yet Another Beer Show. If you’re interested in learning more, the best thing to do would be to check out our episode guide and dive into something that looks fun or to explore our expansive — and ever-growing — beer list. You’re likely to find something you’ll love!
