Batch294: Creating a Supportive, Loving, and Caring Mouthfeel

Batch294: Creating a Supportive, Loving, and Caring Mouthfeel

Author: Craft Beer Republic March 9, 2022 Duration: 47:53
Is your beer in a loving, supportive, environment? Our Best Beer Friend Coley stops in to hang out with Flex and Greg. The squad talks about a weekend full of Pink Boots collaboration brews, emo concerts, getting punished for booze, new beer style guidelines, awful seltzers, and beers to support Ukraine.

Greg and Coley are drinking Star God, a hazy IPA from There Does Not Exist. Flex is getting into the St. Patrick’s Day spirit with The Knot from Phase Three Brewing.

Flex went to his first concert since the pandemic. He loaded up with beer, went to emo fest, and still can’t talk. Coley and Greg spent the weekend at 14 Cannons and Naughty Pine Brewing for a couple of amazing Pink Boots collaboration brews.

Turns out that Kentucky is very strict on people sending alcohol gifts. Calm down!

The homie Chew You Beer calls in to talk about his birthday weekend shenanigans, brewery tour, and his excitement for meeting Greg the first time.

The Brewer’s Association has updated lots of language for beer styles, including IPAs of various temperatures. Modern Times is now seeking a buyer or investor after closing most of their taprooms. The CEO of Threes Brewing steps down after his less than classy comments over vaccine mandates and the Holocaust. Look out, Florida Man; Mountain Dew Hard Seltzers are finally hitting shelves just in time for your spring break! Matthew McConaughey very strongly endorses Troy Aikman’s new EIGHT beer, like very strongly. And Molson Coors has to ruin a great thing with Vizzy’s new mimosa flavors.
