Welcome Back Buzz

Author: Craft Beer Republic September 6, 2023 Duration: 48:16

We’re getting pumped with Coley back in the house. We’re talking about fall and the PSL takeover, partying into the wee hours at our advanced age, getting iced, more weird New Jersey laws, more breweries unionizing, and drunks calling 9-1-1 on themselves. 

-

Greg and Coley are drinking MadeWest’s Short Lived series, this one a collaboration with Tarantula Hill Brewing. Flex is sipping on Forbidden Pumpkin from Abomination Brewing Company.

-

In time for fall, Coley finally tried her first-ever Pumpkin Spiced Latte. Greg, Coley, and the group stay up ‘till 3:30 AM partying. Are we too old for this? Greg throws it back to college and Ices Nick and plans to ice "a friend" for their first time at GABF. We need your icing suggestions. Flex goes on a very midwestern trip to pick apples. 

-

Thanks to New Jersey for supplying this week’s Ludicrous Libation Law.

-

In the News Flight: Elysian Brewing staff voted to unionize, Kid Rock is caught drinking a Bud Light, and Modelo passes Bud Light in sales for the year.

-

Heineken finally sells their Russian operations for less than a pint. Eggo is dropping a waffle and brunch-flavored liqueur. And a drunk driver calls 9-1-1 on himself!
