Jamie and Dom from The Country have joined forces to create a beer with Emerson's. EPISODE THREE: "What's in a name?" The lads try and work out a name for their pilsner.

The Country's Jamie Mackay and Dom George have joined forces with the team at Emerson's to brew their own beer.

To make sure they didn't get high on their own supply, The Country sent a film crew to document the proceedings.

EPISODE THREE: "What's in a name?"

Jamie and Dom reconvene at Emerson's to come up with an idea for their new pilsner. After consulting our listeners and sifting through all the offensive suggestions the lads come up with 'The Mackaiser'.

Why? Well Jamie runs the office with an iron fist, much like a German Emperor. Funnily enough Mackay is happy with this name and signs off on it.
