BeerMetalShow 49 | Confessions of a Serial Drinker

Welcome to the first episode of 2023 of The Beer Metal Show Podcast. After much delay, I welcome you to episode #49. This one is titled “Confessions of a Serial Drinker” This is a play on words to the song Confessions of a Serial Killer by our featured band for this this episode, GOREFEST. I will take you through their entire career and play my favorite tracks from each of their full-length albums. This one was tough, as I am not a fan of every album they put out in their career, but the show must go on, so we all have to sit through a few pretty rough tracks today. I also drink and dissect 4 amazing beers from Eureka Heights Brew Co. from Houston, TX, Jester King Brewery from Austin, TX, No Label Brewing Co. from Katy, TX, and Saint Arnold Brewing Co. from Houston, TX. Each beer gets a great Metal Connection pairing. I also give you my thoughts on the MERCYFUL FATE concert I attended in Dallas, TX and a play by play of my birthday Houston brewery tour. You don’t want to miss this episode, it’s jam packed with head crushing Metal, and delicious Texas Craft Beer. Cheers Mother Fuckers!
