Welcome in to your new favorite beer podcast! Flex’s hype train beer derails big time and it looks like there may be casualties. The 90s are alive and well with Greg’s beer. Poopgate 2025 continues with a new listener email, a DoorDash driver has one too many beers, Thanksgiving high-speed chases, and the importance of hot French fries! Also, does anyone want a wine cocktail?

Beers We’re Drinking:


Flex gets burned by another hype beer that looks like straight medical waste. Anyone thirsty? Tampa somehow tops the listening charts (don’t ask why), and a brave listener writes in to keep Poopgate: 2025 alive and strong. The guys talk about the heartbreak of dumping beers down the drain, spiral into a debate over leftover French fries, and wrap things up with a brand-new Obscure Beer Term that nobody will ever un-hear.
