Author: Craft Beer Republic May 31, 2023 Duration: 49:04

The Dream Team is back, and there’s a whole lot of mediocre beer coming our way! We’re talking about over-hopping beers, making new beer friends, drunk drivers on the beach, breweries buying themselves back, and states that don’t let you buy booze on holidays.

Flex is drinking the “What’s Your Myspace?” collab from Young Blood and Third Space Brewing. Greg and Deb are reviewing Park Hopper IPA from Smog City Brewing

Fresh off of Flex’s beer review, we discuss the importance of correctly naming your beer. Then, Greg goes to Institution Ale Company’s Tacky Tiki Party. Flex went swimming at the neighbor’s house and made new beer friends. And Deb talks about the heroic battle that ensued at Naughty Pine’s trivia night. Finally, inspired by Flex’s beer, we all talk about the good ol’ days of MySpace and our top 8.

Chew Your Beer calls in to recap the live show at 818 Brewing and give his Grammy acceptance speech.

The original owners of Funky Buddha and another brewery will reacquire the brewery after Constellation Brands decides to exit craft beer. The owners of Appalachian Mountain Brewery are repurchasing the brewery from AB InBev. FX Matt will acquire Flying Dog Brewery. A Florida woman drives drunk onto a beach that is full of people. And it turns out that some states have weird laws about buying alcohol on Memorial Day.
