When it comes to multi-tools Justin & Colin have so many questions.
Who made the original multi-tool? If you want to be outdoorsy do you need to own a multi-tool? What is the best job for a multi-tool?
Today we dig into the entire multi-tool category. And because all multi-tools have a lot going on, we needed a beer that also has a lot going. So the boys crack open a couple of absolutely delightful Smuttynose Pineapple Orange Coconut Sours.
Because that's what you get here on Gear & Beer... The Pairings That Matter Most!

Chances are that if you do any camping whatsoever you have a lantern. But do you have an OG fuel burning Coleman Lantern? Justin does and today he is going to break down why you should too.
And what is the perfect pairing for the classic lantern? How about a classic craft beer like a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Because nothing is better than sitting outside on a pleasant evening enjoying the warm light of a timeless lantern while sipping an ice cold Sierra Nevada.
Summer is here and so is the perfect pairing of gear and beer!

Today's pairing that matters most? Topo Athletic's Pursuit 2 and two, count 'em, two wheat ales.
Which two? Well that would be Sam Adams Summer Ale and Golden Road's Mango Cart!
After Colin's experience testing the Obōz Katabatic Wind Low he felt compelled to bring some trail runners back to the fore because it has come time for him to find a replacement for his beloved Altra Lone Peaks.
Then Gear & Beer's official Cicerone (aka Justin) told Colin to go find a summer wheat ale so we could feature not one but TWO beers on today's episode. Colin brought home the Sam Adams seasonal classic Summer Ale and Justin tried Golden Road's Mango Cart.
Because that's what you get here on Gear & Beer... the pairings that matter most!

We're back with the pairings that matter most... GEAR & BEER!
Most hiking shoes are just overbuilt sneakers and leave you wanting either a pair of trail runners or an actual pair of leather boots.
But what if you could truly blend those two worlds into an athletic looking shoe that is well made and built specifically for hiking?
Well then you'd have the Obōz Katabatic Wind Low.
And if you have the Obōz Katabatic Wind Low's and you also have us hosts of Gear & Beer one of whom only likes trail runners (me, Colin) and the other only likes big burly boots (Justin) what will we make of this shoe?
That's called a teaser folks, you need to listen to find out.
Then our in house Cicerone (aka Justin) pairs the perfect post activity beverage to go with these shoes: Montucky Cold Snacks.
Because that's what you get here on Gear & Beer... the pairings that matter most!

Today it's the pairings that matter most... GEAR & BEER!
What kind of shorts do you wear when you go mountain biking? Straight spandex bibs? Jorts? Whatever you have lying around?
Today Justin and Colin talk about their mountain biking preferences while reviewing two outdoor brand entries in the cycling apparel space. The Rab Cinder Crank Shorts and the Outdoor Research Freewheel Ride Shorts.
Then our in house Cicerone (aka Justin) pairs the perfect post activity beverage to go with these shorts: a Rationale Mexican Lager.

Justin has been surfing in Feral wetsuits, a boutique wetsuit brand from the Bay Area for years while Colin just had his first experience trying them out. Today it's all about the wetsuit category and what makes Feral stand apart from a material and design point of view.
Then 10 Barrel Brewing month continues as the boys crack open a can of All Ways Down IPA. The perfect pairing after a long day in the water wearing your Feral wetsuit.

Today Colin & Justin are prepping for the apocalypse... 10 Barrel's Apocalypse IPA that is!
But before the end of the world arrives we first get Justin's review of the Softopper.
The Softopper eliminates the need for immovable and expensive camper shells while still giving you some piece of mind when you pull off at the fishing hole with a half loaded Yeti cooler in the back (this oddly specific example will make sense after you click play on this episode).
Then 10 Barrel Brewing month continues as their flagship brew, the Apocalypse, makes the perfect Softopper pairing.

It's Friday and that means it's time for Gear and it's time for Beer here on THE ROCK FIGHT (an outdoor podcast that aims for the head) and on today's edition of Gear & Beer we're loading up the bikes!
For the first time in G&B history both Justin and Colin are reviewing a piece of gear and today it's all about bike bags. First up Colin reviews the Oveja Negra Lunchbox handlebar bag and then Justin breaks down the Old Mountain Mountain Juniper Trunk. They talk about what makes them great and then they rank them on the official Rock Fight STUFFOMETER.
After that Justin, the official Cicerone of our outdoor community, pairs the bike bags they reviewed with the Cali Squeeze Blood Orange. The perfect beer to drink after hauling around a bunch of stuff (and yourself) on your bike.

It's Friday and that means it's time for Gear and it's time for Beer here on THE ROCK FIGHT (an outdoor podcast that aims for the head) and on today's edition of Gear & Beer we're getting athletic!
Justin has recently gotten back into trail running so today he and Colin break down the Hoka Mafate Speed 4 and go deep into the trail running category before rating the shoes on the STUFF-O-METER!
Then to cool themselves off after burning up the trails our friends at Athletic Brewing have donated a few brews to THE ROCK FIGHT including the Free Wave Hazy IPA which Justin and Colin try for the very first time during this podcast. They wrap up this epic episode by rating this NA brew on the Gear & Beer beer scale.

This episode originally aired on THE ROCK FIGHT. Hence the differences in music and what not.
If you can only have one sleeping bag would you make it your super high end backpacking mummy style bag? You could, but when you go car camping wouldn't you be so much more comfortable in an old school flannel bag?
And when pairing the perfect beer with a classic staple like the cotton lined sleeping bag, do you really think you need a super hipster high end craft beer? Wouldn't you be more comfortable with a classic, a staple in it's own right?
Today on Gear & Beer we ask ourselves what would Cliff Clavin do as we talk about the Slumberjack Timber Pro 0° degree bag paired with an old standby...Budweiser.

This week we're prepping for hiking and backpacking season as Justin gives us his review of the Scarpa SL Active and pairing this classic full grain leather hiking boot with Deschutes Black Butte Porter.
How do these boots compare to other hiking footwear options? Why is a Black Butte Porter the perfect pairing for the Scarpa SL Active's? All will be revealed in this edition of Gear & Beer!

Today we are excited to debut ...GEAR & BEER!
This is reviewing gear, THE ROCK FIGHT way because largely speaking gear reviews have become pretty boring. There's rarely a 'so what' in these reviews because stuff mostly works.
So Colin and Justin are here to throw rocks at the status quo and approach gear reviews the same way we approach most things: Through the types of conversations we have when out riding, skiing, surfing or hanging out at the trailhead...only this time on a podcast.
Each week one of us will bring forth a piece of gear: a shoe, some apparel, a suitcase, sleeping bag, kayak, a pot or a pan…whatever, to review and then because we make way too much stuff these days, we'll rank it on the STUFF-O-METER (listen to learn about the STUFF-O-METER).
Lastly certified Cicerone (which means certified beer guy) Justin Housman will pair the perfect beverage with the gear and activity we talked about.
First up, the Kona Unit X and Founders Brewery All Day IPA.
