Batch288: Walking Around Beers

Batch288: Walking Around Beers

Author: Craft Beer Republic January 26, 2022 Duration: 32:14
“In this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes,” Benjamin Franklin.
Everyone’s favorite salt-queen, Erica (Neck Nosh), stops in to hang with Flex and Greg as they talk about mixing alcohols and getting way too drunk, the importance of beer research out in the field, drunk-responding to DMs, and the greatest gift to humans: Walking Around Beers.

Flex kick-starts the research session with Hidden Meanings, a Double NE IPA from Good City Brewing in Milwaukee, WI. Next, Greg warms up in the bullpen with Death and Taxes, a San Francisco-style black lager from Moonlight Brewing Company in Santa Rosa, CA.

Greg has an admission: he got really drunk over the weekend due to the 49ers winning and moving on in the playoffs. What started as a research day turned into mixing booze, drunk messaging, and a lost night. It also turns out that he has a weird hangover remedy. Erica gets sloppy and reaches for a Bloody Mary. Flex grabbed a friend and went out for some essential lunch beers; the work never stops. Do you have a specific drink to help you with the hangover blues?

Thanks to Georgia for bringing some sanity to this crazy world and allowing people to drink outside. Are you a fan of “walking around beers”?

Monster Energy Drinks throws down some cash and buys CANarchy Craft Beer Collective. Turns out Molson isn’t just selling off the St. Archer taproom; they’re done altogether. The former Green Flash brewery and taproom is up for sale if you’re looking for a major brewery to open. Budweiser is putting a golden ticket in some beer boxes...sort of. And BrewDog is in more trouble, this time for lying to the government.
