This week on Craft Beer Republic, Greg and Flex are back at it with a special guest—Steph, a.k.a. Miss Tipsy Socks, who brings her signature blend of wit and beer knowledge. They kick off the episode with plenty of laughs, roasting each other over everything from intros to Steph's surprisingly small desk. But it's not all jokes—they dive into Steph's new role as the Executive Director of the Utah Brewers Guild, discuss the quirks of Utah’s beer laws, and even share some bizarre news out of Virginia. Plus, Greg and Flex debate what really makes a "classy" drinker. It’s an episode full of hilarious banter, unexpected beer finds, and, of course, a bit of chaos—just the way we like it.
