Episode 10: Sam Adams and Poe (and the lies that unfold)

On this episode, the Oktoberfest celebration continues! Or, as Sam Adams would put it, the Octoberfest continues. That's right, Dill and Taylor are sampling Sam Adams Octoberfest and exposing the lies that have been created around this iconic brewery. As the bell tolls for the myth of the Boston Brewery, they read Edgar Allen Poe's "Lines on Ale" and discuss some of the legend surrounding this famed writer (but not about his poetry) as well as the mystery of his death and the flim flam that arose afterwards. Then they'll break down some facts about Oktoberfest from 1811-1900 and a few surprising facts about Sam Adams himself. Grab a beer, grab a poem, and enjoy the show!
