I am McFlexin!

I am McFlexin!

Author: Craft Beer Republic March 15, 2023 Duration: 47:46

It doesn't even have a last name; it just says McFlexin! Flex and Greg are the captains now! We're talking about booze-to-go, St. Patrick's Day fun facts, $250 beers, getting drunk with gift cards, more lunch beers, and dinner with famous people!

-

Thanks to Bryan from Titletown Brewing, we're all drinking Blizzard Bay Cold IPA.

-

Flex hung out with Bryan and did some lunchtime research with some tasty beer. Greg digs up some old gift cards and gets drunk at a fancy steak house. He also dined with a celebrity. We talk about our favorite fancy cocktails and how great booze-to-go is. And why is it such a pain to get alcohol at a baseball game? And if you need some Vegas tips, we've got the best-kept secret in sin city!

Our listener submitted Ludicrous Libation Law takes us to Michigan. 

-

Not-so-punk BrewDog has a beer that's over $200 and doesn't even mess you up. The National Advertising Division puts an end to MolsonCoors calling Bud Light "water." And a drunk driver gets arrested after complaining about a cop's emergency lights.
