We have been asked for months by fans when the hell were we going to start brewing. Well, the time is finally here. Thanks to our new sponsors at Great Fermentations of Indiana, the Pigs are now, not just talking smack about other people's beer, but walking the walk and producing our own Blind Pig Confessions brews. And we could not have done it without the expertise help from Great Fermentations, the largest supplier of craft beer and wine supplies in the state. They have everything one needs, whether they are the beginner looking to brew as a hobby in the garage, or the experienced novice brewing on a large scale. Not only do they have everything needed to brew, but they also provide many classes on the finer points of brewing and wine making. Join us the evening for a fun, yet quite informative journey with the owner of Great Fermentations, Anita Johnson. We had a great time talking shop while enjoying some beers made at Fermentations. If you're not brewing your own beer now, you will be after this episode. Check out Great Fermentations and tell 'em the Pigs sent you. (A few shout outs in this episode to their neighbors, The Bier Brewery, Journeyman Distillery, and Evil Czech Brewery and Public House.)

A dark cloud hung low over Alley's Alehouse as two forces came to clash on the Pigs homestead. As Indiana's historic Arni's and the new blood of Evil Czech Brewery met for the first time, the air loomed with dreaded anticipation for what might come. But alas, the evening talks began and the clouds quickly dissipated as this turned into a meeting of new friends, good brews, and lots of laughter. Megan Keevil Frank tells us the roots of Arni's Restaurant and their famous pizza and Jeremy Nicely explains the birth and quick and successful growth of Evil Czech Brewery and Public House. We review and rejoice about Evil's highly sought after, Clayton Bigsby, the deceptively delicious white stout, and we learn about the upcoming event, not to be missed, the New Menu Preview and Beer Pairing hosted by Arni's. Jeremy will be bringing some of Evil's finest brews to pair with Arni's fantastically tasty new menu items and the Pigs will be onsite to partake of the feast and record live from the event. Due to all the fun we were having, this turned into a two part series. So relax and tune into Part One of Evil Arni's, be sure to get to Alley's to try the Evil on tap, and then meet us at Arni's on June 7th for great night of fun, food, and craft brews.

WZPL's Nikki Reed of the Smiley Morning Show joins the Pigs for a hysterical craft beer fueled evening of adult conversation. Tune in to hear about some of the events she has coming up this summer including the 99.5 WZPL Birthday Bash and the after party at Revel Nightclub with a Meet & Greet with Charlie Puth, hosted by Nikki. We review a few beers, Widmer Brothers Hefe and Moldelo Pacifico, and Nikki suggest we brew some rabbit beer. Too much to mention here, so you'll just have to turn up the knob and hear about Jordan's boozy tomatoes, edible 6packs, Strip and Go Naked, and Emily Grounds of Nuvo Promotions crashes the show. Shout outs to The Bier Brewery, Great Fermentations, and Nuvo's upcoming Burger Week that will dive into in much more detail on next week's episode.
