Seltzers, Saisons, and Shenanigans

Seltzers, Saisons, and Shenanigans

Author: Craft Beer Republic September 3, 2025 Duration: 34:22

Welcome in, thirsty traveler! Greg and Shannon are back with stories from a birthday party full of tacos, drinks, and questionable cornhole. Erica and the Beer Babes call in after pulling off the ultimate group icing, and the conversation somehow drifts into Coors-branded denim and which beers deserve a spot in the hall of fame.

Beers We’re Drinking:

  • Greg & Shannon – Bottle Logic Brewing Stellar Mass Hazy IPA: Fruity nose, hot burn, mystery citrus vibes.

Greg and Shannon start off laughing about podcast quirks that drive them nuts, then relive Big Nick’s birthday party where tacos and plenty of drinks set the tone for the day. They talk about watching friends stumble through cornhole, surviving the heat with seltzers, and catching up with the crew. Erica and the Beer Babes drop a voicemail straight from their release party, complete with shenanigans, Hot Cheetos, and the boldest group icing yet. The conversation rolls into glitter bans, prank plotting, and more ice than a college dropout can handle.
