Happy New Year, it's our first episode of 2023, and we're starting the year off on the right note! We're Boozin' on a Budget, talking about Greg's big investment, recapping Pozole Palooza 2022, talking some homebrew, and year-end lists to anger Flex.

Greg is drinking Home for the Holihaze from Pure Project and Burgeon Beer Co. Flex is sipping on Campanology Brewing's Tiramisu from Trader Joe's.

A financial investment has been made into a new website, and we're excited to share it. We have a live show at Pedals & Pints on January 13 to release our collab beer. The group went to Chew's house to celebrate Pozole Palooza 2022 and got to hang out with some beer friends. And hot off the success of the Pozole beer, Greg brews another homebrew.
