Episode Synopsis

Jeff and Patrick discuss the origin and history of the porter and stout styles and how, aided by improvements in malts and the advent of steam power, they grew to become the first global super-styles of beer. They go on to discuss their popularity in the early craft beer movement in the U.S. and how they seem to be falling out of favor in the current craft scene.
