I'm getting some mango and some pineapple and some other citrus in there a little bit of hot burn And a little bit of warmth from the booze as it finishes up as is how it goes for me

Speaker:

You enjoying this one? Yeah, I am I'm feeling the warmth as you're that you're talking about that I I was thinking is more like pine, but maybe it's papaya. I don't know something with a P. Yeah some sort of alliteration

Speaker:

Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean, it's really good. Yeah, this is this is a good one from deciduous Where do they come from? Do you like hop? I can like hop burn sometimes It's there and it presents something nice and gives it like another depth

Speaker:

Other times it's like mmm. Did you guys fuck this up? What happened? Oh, see I'm a big fan of it I'm just a so-so, you know, sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't sometimes it feels purposeful and sometimes it feels very accidental

Speaker:

Yeah, oh, that's the thing. I was when Spencer was gonna be on here, unfortunately

Speaker:

Yeah, all right. He did Spencer's rip fucking brew day today. So I would have wanted to ask him that and

Speaker:

Don't know Scott's pulled some weird ones out. Sometimes I'm texting him. He's been like, oh, yeah, I'm in the middle of insert like, Kentucky It's like why the fuck are you in Kentucky?

Speaker:

And most of the time I don't even know I'm going in until the wife says hey we're going To this place. I'm like, where the hell's that? Cheap tickets or what? She has friends everywhere. Okay. We're on the other hand. I have no friend, right?

Speaker:

Oh, she's a complete opposite of my wife. She has zero friends

Speaker:

And you have all the friends my wife talks to everybody. I don't talk to anybody. Okay, that kind of evens out. Yeah. Yeah

Speaker:

Weren't you saved by kovat on like a cruise or something like didn't you have to cancel it because of kovat? Oh, yeah I was saved from a trip to Iceland Iceland. That's

Speaker:

Saved wouldn't you want to go to Iceland? Oh god. No, I just don't even want to travel And now she wants to go camping. I hate camping Why do I want to leave where I live and go live like a homeless person? So you can see how the rest of the world but I guess and apparently we are going camping and like intense

Speaker:

I don't know. Are you gonna at least like rent an RV or some shit?

Speaker:

Well one of the trips were supposed to go on and these are all with her friends

Speaker:

So I just sit there and just you know, you're drink beer and you know, do you have your little stone-cold ice chest?

Speaker:

I'm gonna get one. Yeah, you need to yeah, I had one at one time and it disappeared So I'm gonna have to get me another one

Speaker:

Yeah, see camping for me is crazy how people are just willing to go sleep on the ground for fun

Speaker:

Yeah, I'm not, you know, I used to love it. Maybe I'm getting old. I don't know, but I just really maybe maybe I'm

Speaker:

All I think about is how much my back is gonna hurt. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah, even sleeping in like Nick and Nicole's trailer Which is super nice It's just not your bed and like you wake up and after a night of drinking and you plastered self to your bed It's like ooh backs a little sore. I mean leaps and bounds better than the ground, but yeah

Speaker:

Yeah, I mean for me, there's nothing like your own bed and yeah, you know, I wake up in the morning and I know where everything's at and Have my little routine and we go go away and all of a sudden that just all blown to hell So where you guys going camping? I don't know

Speaker:

I think I can't set it on fire beforehand. Yeah, yeah, cuz I'd work on that, right?

Speaker:

I'm sure she told me but

Speaker:

She probably did I respect the hell out of that I'm sure she does relate to it so much

Speaker:

Did your wife pull that shit like hey flex we're going here next week dude

Speaker:

She tries to tell me that she's told me things like three or four times when she just springs it on me Yeah, it's like you are a filthy liar Especially when it's things that I would definitely have remembered right and she's like I told you this three times before

Speaker:

No, you didn't you told me now and now you're trying to save yourself

Speaker:

Right and more than things that you might have remembered. It's like things you would have definitely just never said Maybe no, see I'm lucky my wife can't lie to save her life. So there's there's none of that She couldn't be like, hey remember this one like now you're full. So that's me

Speaker:

So it's like there are things she'll tell me that like in the argument She'll say like a like a key word and it'll like rekindle my memory and I'll be like, oh shit She said that fucking got me sure

Speaker:

There are those but then there are the special drunk when I said when she like springs it on me and swears She's told me three to four times and I know for a fact that I've never heard this before in my life Because there's not one thing she's saying that sounds any sort of familiar You know, and that's what I know I've got her but she cannot be wrong man, I'm married to a woman who can't be wrong

Speaker:

Oh, hey, remember that one time you told me we're gonna massage my feet for three hours

Speaker:

Yeah, I never said that

Speaker:

You totally said that flex but can reminds me years ago. This is a previous relationship and what was his name? Joe okay. Yes, we'll call him Joe. Yeah Anyway, and so I woke up one morning, you know

Speaker:

surprisingly drinking the night before so I woke up and I My daughter was very young at the time I was in bed with her and I woke up and you sent somebody standing there and I look up and The person that I was with at the time They're like Center staring at me. I look at them like oh, I'm not sure what was going on

Speaker:

And she's like, are you sorry for what you called me last night? I have no idea what I called her I just said yeah, yeah Like well probably not yeah, I'm probably what if I really knew what it was I called you I'd say no, but I

Speaker:

Had an ex-girlfriend that would get mad at me for dreams she had She would have a dream like I cheated on her in the dream and then she'd wake up mad at me for the whole day

Speaker:

Because I cheated on her in the dream. You fucking you

Speaker:

Yeah, that's so gross that didn't last very long and then I cheated on her in the end. So

Speaker:

Little teacher how proud are you? Yeah, that would have been really funny

Speaker:

Just like we're breaking up why cuz I did

Speaker:

Yeah premonition bitch

Speaker:

Apparently you can tell the future Joy it yeah. All right. Let's see how we transition out of that one. Yeah, that's gonna be a tough one Yeah, so we just voicemail. Yeah Rose going next

Speaker:

We do have a voicemail from listener Pablo He's out there in Oxnard near where wagon wheel brewing is so he's calling to talk about that He also has something for chew. So here is Pablo

Speaker:

Hey craft beer Republic, it's Pablo just I have a few things maybe a Chew your beer might like this message might be a little long, but I took this into the latest

Speaker:

Episodes having been born and raised in Oxnard. I have to agree we can be loyal and Wagon wheel brewing great beer. But yes their food stuff. I wouldn't recommend the food. But yes I'm trying to beer. It's a great spot

Speaker:

But um, yeah that beer the beer is great. And yeah that food We ended up giving it to our dog when we went and the dog didn't even want to eat it. So how about that? Wow, also, um when we were you were talking about Deb having the keg of

Speaker:

The teal liquid candy. I have a bone to pick with teal liquid. Candy is awesome off the tap The other day I bought a can not so great. It wasn't hazy. It was clear and that shit tasted like soap

Speaker:

I'm wondering if they just cleaned their system and then can that last but not least I have a question for chew or maybe even Greg

Speaker:

um

Speaker:

Was it just me or on the episode with chew in the beginning? He sounded like a deer in headlight and then once the hydration kicked in he kind of sounded like the og to your beard love the show keep doing what you're doing and

Speaker:

With the election year coming up. Let's see some Greg flex 2024 campaign t-shirts Love you guys. It's awesome. Your show is awesome. Keep it up

Speaker:

Thanks, Pablo. I don't feel like a million bucks right now. Yeah, you know five five three eight beer two three three sevens number to call

Speaker:

Uh, yeah, I think we need to get to work on some flex Greg

Speaker:

2024 t-shirts Greg. I'm a vice president any day. Ooh, daddy Hmm daddy like how's that? Yeah, and my birthday is coming up this summer, right? Right. I will be 35

Speaker:

No, that's how that's how old you need to be. That's right. Oh, we got this in the bag, dude It's done You know how everyone has like they're the t-shirts where it says like, you know name and then VP and then their slogan like, you know Make America drunk again or something. Hey, that's a good one. Well, that's a good one

Speaker:

It's a little too close to someone else's it's a little race. We we should just say Greg flex 24 daddy

Speaker:

You know what you sold me

Speaker:

I'll start filling out the paper. Maybe in turn Brian can fill out our presidential paperwork or something. Yeah, it'll run our campaign Yeah, it'd be great. He'll handle all the legal shit and we'll just worry about getting elected

Speaker:

Yeah, and then the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna dig into the state of New Jersey No way

Speaker:

We're just gonna fix all their loss. Yeah, that'll probably take our entire presidency. Well, you know Maybe like three and a half years. Yeah, but I'm I'm here for it my fellow

Speaker:

Nervous at the start of that live show and then became Barely hydrated as it went on. I mean he turned pregame in the shower. He had like shots in the shower Yeah, and showed up and had like three beers before the show then our flight ended up being like six beers or something like that and they were not short pours by any means and

Speaker:

Yeah, but before we started I don't know if I told this on the show now before we started he comes up goes Hey, you gonna cuss on this? I was like, I mean, I'm not gonna knock us. I'm you know, we're live You know, yeah, I'm not gonna hold back but I'm not gonna fuck fuck fuck fuck and

Speaker:

Which would have been funny and he goes, okay, I'm not gonna cuss, you know I got family here and this and that and yeah, whatever you want man. You do you and then by like minute 32 It's like yeah fucking a Fucking up to your beer fucking fuck fuck and like alright choose hydrated. Yeah, he was pretty well looped up by the end

Speaker:

Yeah, so good for him. No. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So Pablo takes a bit to loosen up. I get it Hey I'm one of them people too And I did some some googling to see if I can figure out what the problem was with Pablo's liquid candy from T Hill The best guests and smarter people who are listening, please write in or something. I can come up with was

Speaker:

chlorophenols Apparently takes a very small amount of chlorophenol to develop within the system to taint the beer they can taste and smell like Antiseptic solutions mouthwash cleaner or even spicy like clothes So I wonder if that's where the cleaner taste comes from and apparently it's a reaction between the beer line

Speaker:

Material and the beer line cleaners when they're not used correctly or if you leave the cleaner in Too long. So give me something like that. Look at you getting all sciencey. Yeah I was got science right there and over here. She should have played the song apparently Yeah Anyways, yeah, I guess if you guys want call me at five five three beer two three three seven and maybe I can sign some shit

Speaker:

Up for you. Could you imagine being like president of the United State United States and running the podcast? That would be

Speaker:

See it is mucho see mucho see Sierra Nevada founder Ken Grossman will be taking back over as the CEO of Sierra Nevada as their currency Oh Jeff white retires

Speaker:

He'll be stepping back in the seat and villains brewing who he talked about it Well, I think back in April they're taking over the old modern times location in Anaheim that's the one with the pool Oh, okay. Yeah, we did Yeah, that did the only brewery in America to have a pool which just every time I think about it

Speaker:

It sounds like an insurance nightmare, but they have officially opened over the weekend

Speaker:

So if anybody wants to go swimming to get hammered now's your chance what a super cool brewery name though villains brewing Yes. Yeah, I like it. You better have some wicked can art Yeah, no cans yet, but yeah, I agree but you know what I mean just the sky's the limit for that

Speaker:

Mm-hmm, and it's it's it's like an endless pool of Ideas for beer names and everything. Yeah, anything like evil or yeah, I dig it

Speaker:

evil Talk a talk a talk a talk a talk a talk a talk Let's find out what flex is drinking In a world where craft beer is king more like Lorne Michaels and muscles are dr. Evil great segue

Speaker:

Oh one time my fellow Americans one tongue

Speaker:

one tongue jobber In this world, we must find out what is flex drinking Well, hello there Today

Speaker:

Flex stopped by the old Explorium brew pub at the local shopping mall and I caught a couple beers while I was there and I grabbed this lost in the sauce, which is their experimental IPA series Mostly, I mean I did get it because it tasted good

Speaker:

But this hop they use you know how we always talk about HBC 586 right and how you're mad that it doesn't have a name yet Yeah, so so get this one. Okay, why Q H dash? 1320 and Why Edie hops dust buck? Yeah, I wish you could I got a snapshot of your face on that one

Speaker:

Why Q H? 1320 oh

Speaker:

That's for the brand. It's Yakima quality hops. Did you just google that I did you son of a bitch I had a feeling it had it because I was thinking like because there's YCH which is Yakima chief So I was like what the fuck is yak? Why Q H Smith?

Speaker:

Where do you think the one three two zero comes in? It's just like the yeah. Yeah. I don't know

Speaker:

Oh, I just looked up HBC. It's hop breeding company man. We're learning things. Whoa. Oh, come on It all oh, sorry delete all that

Speaker:

Edit take two well anyway, so I bought it because I thought the hop name was very bizarre the experimental hop So, I mean, I don't I don't know it's relatively new beer I didn't look anything up on untapped sorry on set

Speaker:

But I'm pretty sure we just say that and the can kind of gives you the notes. That's what I like about this Series is it tells you what to expect from the hops. So this one says tropical pineapple and citrus So let's see if this holds up because you know, I love when my cans hold up on their descriptions

Speaker:

One of my right nice firm description of your cans so on the schnauzer. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Very bright citrus It is like you just sliced open an orange Mm-hmm, not not even joking. It's I'm not even exaggerating that sort

Speaker:

Exaggerating Scott's favorite fruit. Mm-hmm. It's quite delicious. Well, hence his microphone foam looks like he's eating an orange

Speaker:

Yeah, that is true. All right

Speaker:

then naturally without further ado the old tongue-jobber Where do you go? It's extremely light-bodied It's six point six percent. So I guess that kind of makes sense

Speaker:

Mid-range definitely a little bit of that citrus coming through. I don't get much of the pineapple. Let me try it again here Are you calling them liars like your wife? It's really just overrun by the citrus. Hmm, but the citrus notes are very very good

Speaker:

Very very very low in bitterness like on a scale of one to a hundred I'd probably say about a three Wow, that's very low, but it's very good. It's dry on the finish It's light, you know, it's got that six point six, which for me is pretty sessionable This is a pretty good beer for a hop. I've never had and I really don't know much about the why Edie hop

Speaker:

I mean a New Zealand hop if I'm not sounds like it But this is I mean, this is a really good beer I would definitely cop a couple of these for myself All right. Nice. Like remember that mediocre beer I had that one time a couple weeks ago weeks ago And I said if I had this in my fridge and somebody said hey, can I have this?

Speaker:

That's it. You know, yeah, go ahead. Yeah, please do this one. I would honestly probably keep to myself

Speaker:

Yeah, like I don't think you like this one, but let me I got a real good one over here I don't show a couple weeks ago. You should try it. Yeah

Speaker:

Shockingly how dry this is on the finish though, but it like I'm I'm almost done with it already and I just started Yeah reviewing and it just goes to show how good it is and you are pain. Wow pain, buddy I should have brought a backup beer apparently Yeah, cheers to exploring on this one the nice they do a pretty great job when you brew inside of a mall

Speaker:

I think it's kind of crazy pretty good. Moby. Are you sent me one of their lost in the sauce? Well back those yeah, those are wild. Yeah, there's a white can wait. Yeah, I love those weekends

Speaker:

Well, you're on

Speaker:

But good stuff. All right anchor anchor brewing has pulled out of national distribution. Well, no, they did one Yeah, you heard me. They pulled out they pulled out. Yes smartest move they ever made No kidding, but they pulled out a national distribution. Also, they will not be producing the Christmas ale anymore

Speaker:

Yeah, I'm I'm now done with anchor look they already sold out a few years ago They're not craft, but I don't know about you. I was I was always getting the Christmas one. That was that's pretty tasty

Speaker:

Yeah, I did too. Yeah. Yeah, that was a lot of people. Yeah, there's only one I still drank from them

Speaker:

They say San Francisco's anchor brewing companies halting national distribution of all its beers including anchor steam shifting distribution to focus on its home state of California Additionally anchor will not release its popular holiday offering of anchor Christmas ale for at least the next two years

Speaker:

Due to Christmas ales time-intensive and costly brewing and packaging requirements anchor has brewed Christmas ale since

Speaker:

1975 how is the packaging more expensive than packaging any of their other beers?

Speaker:

Well every year they have the same artist since 1975 create a different label like he draws a different tree on the label. Oh But beyond that I don't know they do bottle it they don't can it the brewing part of it I can't imagine how expensive is the brew. It's basically like a brown. I don't I don't know why brewing it is expensive

Speaker:

But I'm highly disappointed Even though they're not craft. I still drink it every year is kind of like like Christmas

Speaker:

Yeah, it was it was a good Christmas beer. Do we have a conversation about this artist? That's been doing it since 1975 needs a lowers rates apparently There's no way that they approach this gentleman or gentle woman and

Speaker:

They're like yo guy chick thing we need another Christmas tree and This person's like oh That's gonna cost you I

Speaker:

Didn't back up the Brinks your old to draw you a fucking Christmas tree To put on your bottle and honestly just send me like a six-pack

Speaker:

That's all it's gonna take all right. I think I make that happen come on I mean why don't we start negotiations a little higher like say a case and they'll go oh no It's too much, and maybe like settle for a 12-pack instead you know

Speaker:

100 billion dollars

Speaker:

Exactly yeah, I think that's a big nice pinky thing there. I think it's a big mistake on their part I think a lot of people be disappointed and honestly I feel like within the craft community It's the last thing that the craft drinkers still buy from them. I think you're right. Yeah, I don't know

Speaker:

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe people love some old-school steam beer. Yeah, I don't know I

Speaker:

Have to agree with that. I mean most of the rest of the year I think their sales have gone down because they sold out But people would buy their Christmas beer and now they've kind of screwed that up

Speaker:

Yeah, how hard is it to draw a Christmas tree god damn it?

Speaker:

That's kind of what it boils down to really guys this artist is minimally seven years old

Speaker:

Well, they've been doing it since 75 so I think they're a little older than that, but I don't know let's see so

Speaker:

25 plus 23 is what 48 say I don't know roughly roughly 70 years old maybe 75 Let's ballpark it say 77. Yeah, right you're getting a pretty jaggedy Christmas tree if you're drawn at 77 I'm sorry

Speaker:

Prove me wrong

Speaker:

Maybe he's too old they're looking for a new Christmas tree drawer. Maybe that's maybe he croaked or something

Speaker:

Yeah, or she don't discriminate. I don't believe it. Yeah, so anyways dumb move anchor

Speaker:

Slash-to-poro slash stone. Yeah, I'm gonna get my daughter to draw them a fucking Christmas tree

Speaker:

You know we'll do I'll brew my own Christmas ale get your daughter to draw Christmas tree for it We'll just bottle it and sell it ourselves done be part of our campaign giveaway. I can have it done by tomorrow, okay? my beer is gonna take a little bit longer than that, but a

Speaker:

Lot shorter than a we draw fast Christmas trees here. Yeah

Speaker:

Talented family

Speaker:

I'm gonna say the apple does not cost you any more money

Speaker:

See we'd be a great presidential team because you're already thinking about economics here. It's all about economics Yeah, exactly smart smart guy

Speaker:

We need to be a country that when you walk into a store you go straight for the clearance rack

Speaker:

Yeah, it is what kind of country we need it's like Target when you walk in they bombard you with like that $2 section Led

Speaker:

Let new Belgium brewing company to Unprecedented growth will depart the company in August after six years to explore new challenges His departure will wrap up a six-year tenure at the Fort Collins Colorado based craft brewery that saw the acquisition by Kieran owned lion Little world beverages a new record volume as the company pushed across

Speaker:

1.2 million barrels Voodoo Ranger Imperial IPA becoming the top-selling IPA and the number two best-selling craft beer in the US not craft and the biggest Year one craft beer launch of all time not craft in Voodoo Ranger juice force IPA

Speaker:

When asked why now was the right time to step aside? He told brew bound that it was important for him that any transition occur as the business was performing well But also at a time that was right for New Belgium his co-workers and his partners But the stability of our growth and performance of the business this felt like the right time for that to happen. He said

Speaker:

Daniel McLernan New Belgium CFO in a 19-year vet of the brewery will serve as interim CEO starting August 1st as a search gets underway for permanent successor

Speaker:

Voodoo Ranger is a good chug beer it is

Speaker:

I don't know if I chug it, but I like Voodoo Ranger. I was sorry to see them. Yeah. Yeah

Speaker:

I liked a great number of the New Belgium portfolio It's a good I'll try that that's such a fucking bitter piney ass beer though. How do you chug that thing because of that? It's like so teeth crushingly bitter

Speaker:

OG Voodoo Ranger

Speaker:

But when you chug something you like hardly get the taste of it until like you're done chugging And that's when it settles and by then you've lost all your enamel well by then you're just like well I'm glad I don't have to do that again

Speaker:

There is that sounds delightful question mark All right is everybody ready to go down to Florida always hi Vanessa Drunk Florida man goes what yeah goes nuts on deputy after crashing into hydrant

Speaker:

He he crashed into the hydrant or the deputy. He did his name was Frank Clement, Jr. Ooh, that sounds like somebody that would crash into a fire hydrant

Speaker:

Yeah Initially he had just after crashing to the hydrant initially had just slumped over his steering wheel Seeing the crash a driver passing by stopped to help Clement out of his truck Clement begged the Samaritan not to call 911 and described himself as fucked up He might also have recalled that he was on probation

Speaker:

Law enforcement on the phone. He would know he told the guy who was trying to help him and also oh my god Yeah law enforcement officers were soon on the scene Clement 52 a resident of Raymoor Drive in Palm Coast I love that they give out these details immediately conceded that he'd been drinking

Speaker:

No shit and repeated to a deputy how sorry he was before crying Clement's dog was running around but then Clement who was slurring and incoherent inexplicably inexplicably Easy for you to say approached one of the deputies the deputy told him to move back

Speaker:

Clement didn't the deputy put a hand on Clements torso to push him back and Clement seemed offended. Fuck that he said a scuffle took place as Debbie Let's just spit beer out of his nose a scuffle took place as deputies took him down and handcuffed him

Speaker:

But not before Clement repeatedly reached or attempted to strike the deputies according to his arrest report At one oh and mixing insults with apologies at one point Clement reached for one the deputy Reach for one of the deputies crotch and grabbed it hurling more insults as he began

Speaker:

squeezing and twisting testicles Causing the deputy extreme pain Yeah, thank you. Yeah, I hope otherwise we have some questions. Oh That's what resulted in the aggravated battery charge at that point

Speaker:

The deputy struck Clement in the face three times causing a gash over his eye before Clement Desisted the witness who had stopped to help Clement told deputies that he witnessed the man try to strike the deputy It appeared that the man was going for the deputies firearm. He said just going for his dick. Oh

Speaker:

He definitely went for his firearm I tell you Clement was too drunk to allow for field sobriety exercises paramedics tended to him and took him to Advent Health Palm Coast for treatment His right hand was bruised and was swelling. He was released a few hours later and booked at the county jail

Speaker:

He'd been in an almost identical crash not far from the same location Only last July he driven his trucks his truck. He driven his truck into the woods deputies similarly found him intoxicated He was arrested on drunk driving charge in a charge of possession of prescription drugs without a prescription

Speaker:

the felony count was dropped to sentence to six months on probation on the DUI charge and They like to learn this lesson. Yeah, right as I've seen now been Violated yeah, that's crazy I like that they wrapped up the story with John's towing towed the pickup truck and an animal control officer claimed the dog

Speaker:

He's being held at the jail on no bond on the probation violation and $30,000 bond on other charges

Speaker:

How do John's towing our new sponsor?

Speaker:

How do you insult somebody but then like apologize?

Speaker:

How do you mix I don't understand that so if you want to google the story there is video with it I'm doing this body. I love you. Yeah What was the body cam and it didn't make good for pod because the audio was not great and all that stuff But if you want to watch it's good

Speaker:

It's kind of funny cuz he's like hey fuck you man, and then the guy hits him in the face like I'm so sorry I'm so sorry. What the fuck. I'm so sorry

Speaker:

Speaker:

I am Maybe that'll make it feel better

Speaker:

Purple I'm sorry. I'm squeezing your testicles Controllable or something right that's so crazy
