Pubcast from The Brit and Yankee – Show 3

November 19, 2006

It’s the landlord’s birthday and he doesn’t look a day over 75!!

We play parts 1 and 2 of an audio segment called “Life with The Schoolteacher, circa 1890” in which we visit Kline Creek Farm in Winfield, IL and speak with Pat Watson, our interpretative specialist.

Dave Glazewski, our Wisconsin brew-master, spun the Globe of Beer last show and gave us Belgium as our beer country of the week, so we’re drinking Trippel and Saison beer. Lingo spins the Globe of Beer for next week’s beer country.

Beers on Tap for this show:

The Landlord was drinking Vieille Provision Saison DuPont, Belgian Farnhouse Ale.

This week the Chicago music theme takes a back seat as USBrit has a musical tribute for his new grandson, Hayden from Israel Kamakawiwo'ole who tells him to look Somewhere Over the Rainbow and reminds us all What a Wonderful World it is.
