Moist January is almost over! Coley is back as we talk about brewery anniversaries, recap the beer release party, talk about lunch beers, teaching old beers new tricks, and the driest stats in the US.

Greg talks about his research at MadeWest’s anniversary party over the weekend. Coley tells the story of a waitress that kept referring to Greg as “Daddy,” and Flex is Jealous. Flex hits his favorite spot for lunch beers and gets the hookup after some guy was a douche to the beer tender. And the crew recaps the live show from Pedals & Pints.
