To close out “Monks of March,” Mike and Kenneth call up their old pal Buddy Buttram, who ran the beer program at Kuchnia and Keller in collaboration with Rhizome Productions in Nashville. They discuss the holy trinity of Trappist Ales: Chimay, Orval and Westmalle, going over tasting notes and anecdotes about the breweries. Kenneth also shares some booze news about a new “beer cleanse.” To close, Mike discusses a day in the life of a Trappist monk.
