Drinking for Two

Welcome back to your favorite craft beer podcast. Flex gives up drinking for Lent, but Greg is making up for it. That leads to dirty soda experiments, Daytona Bike Week bar stories involving baby bird shots and hurricane slaps, and the phrase mack and scrote has entered the chat. We also get into bloated tap lists and wrap with Booze News packed with brewery buyouts and a DUI story that is medically impossible. Beers We’re Drinking: Greg is drinking Million Dollar Hazy from Shelter Beer Company , a hazy IPA brewed with Mosaic, Citra, and Sabro hops. Flex is drinking a dirty soda made with Diet Coke and French vanilla coffee creamer. A listener writes in about breweries running huge tap lists and we get into whether more options actually make things better or just harder to pick a beer. Flex shares stories from Daytona Bike Week including a baby bird shot and a hurricane shot that ends with water in the face and a full slap, which begs the question: which one would you take? A bar conversation introduces the term “mack and scrote” and it immediately becomes part of the show. Flex explains his Lent break from alcohol and the accidental discovery of dirty soda, which somehow leads to a conversation about sedation dentistry and extreme fear of the dentist. Booze News: Tilray acquires BrewDog’s brand, brewery, and UK pubs for £33 million Drake’s Brewing and Figueroa Mountain launch the West Coast Craft venture Left Hand Collective adds Bootstrap Brewing Latitude Beverage expands with the House of Mason platform acquisition Monster’s alcohol sales drop and the company records a $53.7 million impairment Angel City Brewing announces April 30 closure Colorado driver arrested after being 12 times the limit!
