Batch265: One Drink & One Drink Only

Batch265: One Drink & One Drink Only

Author: Craft Beer Republic August 18, 2021 Duration: 41:54
Get your cold ones colder; we’ve got a fresh batch! Deb, Flex, and Greg are back to sip on some delicious beers, talk about lake trips, find out which state is limiting your alcohol intake, and figure out what everyone’s entrance music is! We also have a big controversy after a voicemail.

Deb and Greg are in charge of the research today. First up is Pursuit of Happiness, a hazy IPA from Arrow Lodge Brewing in Covina, CA. Next up is dessert (or breakfast) with Cinnamon Roast Crunch from Noble Ale Works. Get ready for some nostalgia.

Greg went out for some beer research in the mountains and doesn’t have much to report. He also ran roughshod on the beer pong table for the weekend. Deb brings up a fundamental question (especially with our love for 80s wrestling), what is everyone’s entrance music? (Let us know!)

We received a voicemail from a listener that spurred quite the controversy.

Turns out Hawaii is not a fan of double fisting. They’re very strict on how many drinks you can buy.

Dogfish Head launches Let’s Get Lost, a new whiskey. Molson Coors is right on their tail with Five Trail, a blended whiskey. Boston Beer isn’t doing so well in the beer category, but they’re selling tons of seltzer. And a drunk guy in El Paso goes on a crime spree and steals a donut truck.
