Beer geek nation and gregs beer reviews

 

I already answered this awhile back, but I'll go into more depth:

Beer Geek Nation:
Pros: Very concise, tight format. Audio quality is very good. Lots of enthusiasm. Stays positive, it has to be pretty awful for him to be negative.
Cons: Doesn't talk appearances. Has a decent vocabulary of descriptors, but tends to focus on a certain handful 90% of the time. Focused primarily on stouts and IPAs.

Darwin:
Pros: While not extremely concise, still tends to be under 10 minutes a video. Wide array of descriptors and constantly putting them to work. Talks about appearance as well. Does some cool things like blending and blind tasting.
Cons: Has a very clear idea of what he considers a good IPA (cloudy, tropical, not very bitter), so I tend to skip reviews that don't fall into that paradigm because he's going to call them boring and move on. Audio quality tends to be a bit iffy at times.

Greg's beer reviews:
Pros: Doesn't take himself too seriously. Doesn't overthink the production and focuses on having a beer and giving his thoughts, which works well for him. Pretty wide variety of styles reviewed. Comes across as very genuine.
Cons: LONNNG. While I enjoy them, its hard to consistently watch full episodes with the length, which I figure to some people is a strength. Audio quality is so so.

I watch a few others like master of hoppets, craft beer temple and joe's arcade, but haven't seen enough of any of them to have a strong opinion. I used to really enjoy better beer authority but the relaunch hasn't quite been the same. I really miss New Brew Thursday, that was fantastic, especially the stuff with Dr. Bill.

Every morning I check out:

Beer Geek Nation

 

Gregg's Beer Review
Louisiana Beer Review

 

I agree on the comments about BGN. All his reviews seem so copy and paste. I think the best 2 right now are @dar482 and Joe! Super nice guys and honest. A list of other good ones are Erik, Crafty beer reviews, what cheers, brew review crew and eerie better beer bureau.

 

Greg's and Beer Geek nation are the two that I watch. I used to watch Greg's a lot more but he just talks to damn much. Who has 20 minutes to watch a single beer review? Beer Geek Nation is my go to now since all the videos are kept to 5-10 minutes.

 

Albino Rhino, Bike Brews Reviews, Lee Russel for Canadian reviewers. Louisiana Beer reviews for Americans

 

Shameless plug: my own of course! But really, there's a lot of great stuff already posted in here, most of the mentioned ones I already watch.

 

1) R. Jay Theriot: Guy does his homework. I learn something pretty much every video.
2) William Geist: Funny as hell.
3) Greg: The one and only, they broke the mold.
Based on comments I'll have to check out Darwin's channel.

 

Darwin, Chris at BGN, Peter Master of Hoppets, Erie Better Beer Bureau are my favorties.

Just started following Joe Spengilia (spelling might be wrong). He's the guy with the arcade games in the background. His Alpine and Green Flash review/rant was great.

 

Wow. Some great reviewers listed here. My channel has even been listed, which is crazy to me. I decided to have fun doing it after watching Dar, Erik and Jon, Joe and others. For me it's just for fun and I will never take beer too seriously.

My channel is Behind the Bar. Just search Nathan Ryerson if you want to find it. I'm still pretty new ;-)

 

They have these?

 

Greg beer reviews. I find myself smiling at while watching almost every time. I would hang out with the dude. Beer geek nation is pretty good. I like going back in forth from his fat episodes to skinny and back again... Gives me hope.
Beer thirty show is my all time favorite podcast, they always have great guests on from my favorite breweries and I think it's super interesting how they vaporize hops and inhale hop oils like guinea pigs for my listening pleasure. #aintnothinwrongwitit

 

Bitter Poet Madman but he stopped doing beer reviews unfortunately, and just posts videos of him downing Mickeys and other malt liquors. His Westy 12 review was hilarious

And if anybody else knows a good beer show that does a lot of Midwestern beers let me know.

 

I don't do any youtube channels but I love good beer hunting's podcast

 

Not sure it qualifies as a YouTube exclusive, but you can't go wrong with The Beer Temple. Great show, amazing bottle shop.
