Batch 362: Happy 4th of July weekend, we’re ready for some celebrating! Erica sails in as we discuss her trip to hang out with the CBR crew, Father’s Day shenanigans, more brewery buyouts, July 4th fun facts, and a super drunk hockey player. 

-

Erica and Greg are drinking Citra Dream, a hazy IPA from New Glory Craft Brewery. Flex is sipping on Nova, an IPA from Three Sheeps Brewing

-

Greg and Erica recap her trip down to SoCal to do a little brewery hopping with the CBR crew (and Flex joined…sorta). Then we all talk about what we did for Father’s Day, including Erica’s super boring day and Flex’s kids trying to get him drunk. We also discover that Flex should eat before drinking some triples (and happy anniversary to Eagle Park). And happy birthday to Vanessa!

-

The homie Chew Your Beer calls in to address a few things.

-

In the News Flight: Skagit Valley Malting shuts down suddenly, Stoup Brewing to buy Optimism Brewery, and Cap May calls off the purchase of Flying Fish.

-

Yuengling Draft Haus opens up in Tampa, FL. Miller High Life is teaming up with Deez… err, Planters Nuts. William Karlsson of the Las Vegas Golden Knights gives one hell of a drunken speech. And July 4th fun facts just in time for the holiday weekend!
