What People Are Saying About beergeek.TV

"We returned to Munich this year after LOVING it last year. Before we traveled we watched your Munich segment and thanks to you found ourselves at Kloster Andechs. We're now back in California drinking Weissbier out of our Kloster Andechs weissbier glassware. Great tip and phenomenal beer..."
Russell in California

I have thoroughly enjoyed Beer Geek TV. It even inspired my girlfriend and I to visit Bavaria last winter for the Christmas markets.

Bringing You the World One Pint at a Time...
We have had the idea for beergeekTV for some time. Ever since we started talking about "The Year in Beer" we have batted around the idea of transforming what we do on this website from text-based to video-based.

While the outcome of Chris's Chief Beer Officer experience was disappointing, it was the impetus to move on and launch beergeekTV and our show One Pint at a Time.

We created beergeekTV to give people an alternative view of travel; where good beer could stand alongside museums, castles and cathedrals as a must see or do. To that end, we will show how, with a little knowledge and preparation, anyone can be a beer traveler or adventurer. We want to promote the discovery and exploration of other cultures through beer and show that not only hardcore beer lovers can enjoy the experience.

Early episodes run from 4 to 7 minutes in lenghth. More recent episodes run 14 to 18 minutes in length. The goal is to give the viewer a good idea of the adventure, fun and enjoyment of being a beer traveler.

You will need a good broadband connection and the Adobe Flash player to watch One Pint at a Time. I can't help you with the broadband but if you need the Flash player, click here.

Welcome to beergeekTV!

Craft Beer Down Under, The Journey to Melbourne Date Filmed: December 2009 Merideth turned 40 in December and she didn't really embrace the milestone. Instead of making our normal holiday pilgrimage to Europe, we decided a trip to Australia was what Merideth needed to cure the turning 40 blues. This trip marked our first beer adventure outside of North America or Europe. In two weeks of beer travel, we journeyed from Sydney to Melbourne and then back.

500! Date Filmed: October 2009 Our trip to Maine in October was the last of three successive quickie beer trips. Focusing on Portland, Maine's largest city and brewing center, our goal was try a bunch of local beer, eat a lot of lobster and to reach the 500 brewery milestone. In our two day trip, we visited Maine's craft beer pioneers as well as some of the newcomers.

One Ounce at a Time Date Filmed: September 2009 Despite our whining about the one ounce pours, the Great American Beer Festival member's session is now a highlight of our beer year. Beyond the vast beer choices, GABF is the one time of year where most of our beer friends from around the country gather in one place. Good beer, good friends... that's what it's all about.

Three Days in the Big Apple Date Filmed: August 2009 This was our first trip to New York City. We always try to maximize the experiences in our beer travels but, even for us, the list for this trip was ambitious. We had 32 beer places to visit and only three days to do it. Turns out, the number wasn't our biggest obstacle to reaching our goal.

Three Cities, Three Styles Date Filmed: July 2009 We are firm believers in beer needing to be tried in context of its culture. "Three Cities, Three Styles" was born out of this belief. We visited three German cities, Dortmund, Duesseldorf and Cologne, that each has it's own unique style of beer. Over three days, we got to experience each beer style in the place of its birth. That is something special.
