Grab your holiday beers; it’s time to celebrate! Deb joins us to help spread the holiday spirit and talk about Friendsmas, the dropping of the Yule Log, hot tub shenanigans, beer prices, and the worst beers of 2022.

-

Flex is sipping on his holiday class: Warmest Wished from Phase Three Brewing. Deb and Greg are drinking Celebration Fresh Hop IPA from Sierra Nevada Brewing Co

-

We’ve convinced Deb to start her own website; look for that in the new year. Greg talks about Friendsmas at Coley’s house, where a 9-year vertical of Black Tuesday was enjoyed. There was also a fair bit of blacking out. We get into some science about drinking water while getting hammered. And a favorite Christmas tradition around these parts: the dropping of the Yule Log. Also, what is Boxing Day really about?

-

Chicago is bringing us this week’s Ludicrous Libation Law. 

-

Heineken is increasing their beer prices in the New Year. A drunk golfer gets lost and wanders off the green. And thanks to BeerAdvocate, we have the worst beers in the world.
