I haven't tried it yet. This is Made West short-lived series, which is a rotating IPA collaboration series different collab brewery every time 22 00:05:07,860 --> 00:05:21,340 They collabed with local brewery tarantula Hill T Hill T Hill in the house to come up with a hazy IPA 7% has a four point one and untapped with not a ton of ratings but respectable number 23 00:05:21,340 --> 00:05:37,080 They say hazy IPA stacked with Citra Nelson and HBC 630 Brewed in collaboration with our friends at tarantula Hill This IPA has a fruit forward expression of pineapple cherry and white grape 24 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:50,020 I get the white grape for sure You know, I get pineapple in the schnazzer Rooney the aftertaste even like a little I Totally get the white grape like white grape juice. That was always so I always liked it better than 25 00:05:50,920 --> 00:06:02,380 You like the purple stuff. Yeah You're a freak man, my mom didn't buy like a lot of Juice I am right. We've already discussed this. Yeah, and my mom's a great juice 26 00:06:02,380 --> 00:06:15,380 she makes her horny goat weed in with the white my mom didn't buy me like a lot of juices growing up and She would get more of like the lighter ones, too I don't know if they were lighter in sugar or they didn't stain your teeth and then she 27 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:28,500 Thirty eight and a half years old and he's never had a cavity So mom, thanks Yeah And the girl who's 38 year at 38 and a half years old and just for the first time in her life Had a PSL I did 28 00:06:29,180 --> 00:06:40,260 Pumpkins I was not a basic bitches. I thought I was apparently I Yeah, I hugs and short shorts, but no PSL it's very true I love hugs and short shorts 29 00:06:41,140 --> 00:06:51,780 Oh my god, I work out in Uggs every morning I have a pair of slippers and your short short your basic. Yes. Oh, I'm super basic. Yeah Oh clearly I am now. I mean, here's the thing though 30 00:06:51,780 --> 00:07:03,140 Like I'm a purist when it comes to coffee and I like black coffee I like Americanos no room for cream like I am just the blackest of the black like to match my soul and 31 00:07:03,140 --> 00:07:15,140 This pumpkin spice latte was a little on the sweet side. I mean it was it wasn't bad I can't I just I it's just not my thing. Like I don't I don't understand. I guess the hype 32 00:07:15,140 --> 00:07:28,000 But I mean it was fine. I like just a touch of cream just a touch. No sugar just a little cream It doesn't taste like coffee and I guess I drink coffee because I actually like the taste of it Even though we're on a beer podcast. I'm right falling down a rabbit hole 33 00:07:28,900 --> 00:07:42,620 Okay, let's come back. Okay. Anyway, I can feel that I feel like personally I'm gonna interrupt you with this We're just gonna touch on this pumpkin spice here for one second So I got into pumpkin spice really early like 34 00:07:43,420 --> 00:07:54,660 We're talking like 2013 2014 when it was like the limited edition creamer every yellow bitch every holiday and you're like real limited edition 35 00:07:54,660 --> 00:08:06,640 Not like hey now we're gonna keep this around eight months out of the year. Sure. This is only here from August to July Yeah so I would stock up on it super hard and I would get like the pumpkin spice coffee for the Keurig and I would get 36 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:21,160 The pumpkin spice creamer, so it was just like wicked strong pumpkin spice and I love pumpkin and pumpkin spice and all that goodness But I totally outdid myself and burn yourself out so I can't do like the pumpkin spice lattes anymore 37 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:35,140 Yeah, yeah, it's harsh. I was done quite anything I never got into the PSL but I did early on enjoy me a caramel brulee latte Which comes out or at least did around the same time as the PSL. Yeah, that's so yeah. Yeah, but sounds yummy 38 00:08:35,140 --> 00:08:49,220 It's just too sweet for me nowadays. It's just a glass of diabetes. I love all the sweet stuff I love it. I can't and I can't do it anymore. So anyways, I'd wrap up this beer. Yeah delicious I really get the white grape juice though. Yeah, it's a little dank. I have a little bit of dankness 39 00:08:49,600 --> 00:09:04,500 Yeah, I get pineapple and I get the white great weirdly like I just haven't really been feeling IPAs as much lately. I don't know what it my taste has just kind of been off I guess this one I was like, it's like welcome back. Like I this one's really good 40 00:09:04,500 --> 00:09:17,140 I'm really enjoying this. So thank you for yeah, it's music to my ears right there This beer in general is a bit of a welcome back for me. We were up till 330 Champagne a little mimosa. Yeah 41 00:09:18,260 --> 00:09:35,280 You went to bed? Later we didn't eat anything before I went to bed last night.

Like yeah, we definitely made up some ground 50 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:27,420 We were in like six that one point we we pulled it And we missed second by four points so, you know, there you go battle for second once again, I Love it and never told 51 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:39,360 so anyways, brisky followed by a ton of drinking and and Oh, yeah, that's what I was getting to but then like, you know, we had a couple of mimosas this morning and 52 00:11:40,220 --> 00:11:57,500 Here we are. I needed I needed a little beer in my life to settle the malt really settles my stomach I don't know if you guys have found this in your own day-to-days, but like I just need my buzz brought back Yeah, like the the champagne brought back the buzz, but it didn't settle anything. Okay, and having the maltiness I think settles things 53 00:11:57,500 --> 00:12:07,880 I actually feel the most normal now. Yeah Here we go. Welcome back everybody who's ready to party tomorrow's a holiday. Let's fucking go 54 00:12:09,220 --> 00:12:22,200 Holiday and Sunday before the holiday. So yeah, so I Have to bring this up this happened yesterday But but this was inspired by a discussion that really flex and I had in one of our Instagram engagement groups 55 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:36,140 And that is being iced. We've all Been you've been iced right? Oh, I thought like it started in the Midwest. I didn't know that but Complete lie. I've witnessed it. I 56 00:12:36,140 --> 00:12:53,420 Have never been iced. I know I've just put you've never been ice on the target list I'm sorry. You've never been iced. I know what's happening next week. Okay This got really big for me and my friend group I would say from like 57 00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:09,000 2008 and I mean all the way through like 2015 yeah, that's when it was really like yeah. Oh, oh wait ish for the next five or so years It was really at it. Yeah, we had some good like we we would have friends who would throw parties and 58 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:20,820 My buddy Dustin was like a fucking nutjob with wanting to ice people So my friend Deanna, he would like, you know hide ices underneath pillows. Oh, yeah 59 00:13:20,820 --> 00:13:33,420 Somebody needed to like crash, you know Too drunk, so they go to bad. Boom. You put your hand into the pillow. Oh He's done them under the toilet seat before or he closed the bathroom door 60 00:13:33,420 --> 00:13:46,500 You close the bathroom door and then you just set the ice on top of the toilet seat So then the first person to walk into the bathroom gets screwed We've taped one inside of a pizza box before so it didn't roll around like an empty pizza box Wow 61 00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:59,960 And we went to a fantasy football draft and I was like, oh, hey wants a piece of pizza It was so good now do you play that they have to like touch it or do they know you just you just see it 62 00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:13,360 Okay, we always played that you like you actually have to touch it and then oh, that's not no That's not then. How do you get like surprised by it? Well, you could like put it You know the one of the last ones I got ice with was my wife teamed up with one of my friends who we used to always ice 63 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:25,360 Each other and because I had asked her go get me a beer. We're at a party and my friend goes let's ice Greg Shannon's like I'm in yeah, Shannon goes he'll never suspect it from me. So I'm playing I think I was playing pool 64 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:36,600 I was playing some sort of drinking game and playing pool and she comes up from behind She goes here, babe Here's your beer and I just reached for it and she put it in my hand And I didn't know what it was and I come back around ice enhanced then I had ice 65 00:14:36,980 --> 00:14:47,080 Another one was like somebody put it in their purse and they're like, hey, can you go grab the keys out of my purse for me? So I just kind of like open the person reach in there was a nice and it's pretty smart. Yeah, so that is genius 66 00:14:47,080 --> 00:15:01,660 I like that. Yeah, it makes a little more challenging for the ice Er to get the ice II cuz like you have to touch it, you know, yeah Yeah But yeah so anyways this all got started and turns out Erica's never been iced from neck nosh and 67 00:15:01,660 --> 00:15:17,060 We'll be there with her at GABF in a few weeks Oh, and I think I need to contact McDreamy we need ice though, you know, she listens to the show, right? I know but this is all stuff that's been said watch your back. I'm not giving any more secrets out like we need to 68 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:30,840 Ice are so good. All right I still believe that you just have to see it like it's the idea of like the creative surprise factor But if you walk into a kitchen and it's sitting on the counter like do you then have to drink it? 69 00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:41,160 I don't think so Like I feel like if you put it in like a cabinet and somebody reaches into the random cabinet opens up like hell Hey, I need like a snacky and you open up the snack cabinet 70 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:55,180 I mean, I love the the tape in it to the other side of the toilet seat. That's that's brilliant. It's fucking brilliant So this whole discussion inspired me. I felt very inspired. We had a present for for Nick Nichols husband 71 00:15:55,180 --> 00:16:08,480 it was a tasty big-ass stouty barrel H thing, which is his jam and Said maybe we put a second bottle in that bag and that second bottle should be a nice and it was the big size 72 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:19,040 By the way, it was the Today well it had to match the other bottle size so it wouldn't seem weird. So was that like a 20? Yeah 73 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:32,620 so we wrapped them like we put him in a gift bag wrap them with you know, like tissue paper and Shannon even put a sticker over the top of the ice because it's a very red distinct. Yeah, and you know it so he 74 00:16:33,260 --> 00:16:46,800 Yeah, he opens it in the perfect order. He pulls out the real beer first. He's like, oh this sounds so good He's like, what the hell is this and he reaches back in he goes Oh, what's this and he pulls out he's like the fuck turns out he'd never been iced before 75 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:59,400 He didn't even know you had to like get down like on your knee I was like, no, no, you have to get down and like do this. He's like I knees It's a real thing. Yeah, he's like I drink the whole thing now because it was the large one 76 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:12,960 I wasn't gonna hold him to downing the entire thing at once I was like if you get half down and then you just have to finish the rest at some point I would have been okay with that. You want to talk about? Oh my god. Yeah, I was 77 00:17:14,180 --> 00:17:26,579 Yeah, it was impressive I was impressed I have a video I'll send it to you flex it had to be less than 10 seconds That's crazy because you're talking about a bottle sucks, too. Yeah, the bottle never even touched his lips 78 00:17:26,579 --> 00:17:42,240 What he's fucking waterfalled that thing. He had one little like hiccup halfway He burped and a little like splashage happened and then Right back and finish and I cuz I was like, there's no way he'll just drink the rest and we are gonna commend him for 79 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:55,560 his 40 years of service right in life and For serving us in life and being the entertainment and No, he turned right back around like Greg said and it was down the gullet 80 00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:06,560 Yeah, it was impressive. Everyone was cheering him on you can hear us all cheering in the video It's great. Like all of you know, some of his best friends were there and it was a very collaborative And 81 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:18,160 Then he was so angry so mad. I have to leave Every time he'd walk by them. Fuck you guys. Yeah, fuck you guys for I see me. I got heartburn right now. Fuck you guys 82 00:18:22,020 --> 00:18:37,700 Fuck you guys He's mad about the heartburn that's so Fucking midlife is that so bad So pissed and then he starts going like I'm so drunk now cuz that ice and I wouldn't look to the bottle 83 00:18:37,700 --> 00:18:48,500 It's four and a half percent after like bud. You just hammered down to 805s. I think you're alright Like that's not why you're drunk. No, that's the 13 beers you had leading up to it 84 00:18:48,900 --> 00:18:58,940 It's not gonna help but no But yeah, it was it was hilarious. I didn't know he'd even know what it was. Let alone had never been ice Well, Nick thought Netflix and chill was literally 85 00:18:59,860 --> 00:19:10,240 Watching movies and hanging out over the pandemic.

Yeah, I like, you know family stuff. Hoorah. Hoorah 110 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:37,660 All right before we find out what flex is ringing over there ludicrous libation law. It's back. Welcome back Well flex you sort of called it because New Jersey happened to have our top listening city of the week 111 00:24:37,660 --> 00:24:49,300 I found a New Jersey law for a ludicrous libation law in New Jersey drunk drivers may not have vanity plates on their vehicles for 10 years after their conviction 112 00:24:49,300 --> 00:25:05,100 That's like when the DUI drop is 10 years. Yeah, while it's still present on your record God that like breaks my heart. You have to have it just a normal. I love my Coley license plate Like here's the silly thing to me about this the vanity plates 113 00:25:05,100 --> 00:25:21,860 Cost extra they do and then annually they cost extra. Yes. So who are you $40 extra a year? You're hurting your government state dollars $40 a year for we have the black plates the old like vintage, California plates like the black ones with a yellow number and letters 114 00:25:21,860 --> 00:25:37,380 Okay, but yeah, those are $40 a year some are 50 Yeah, I think like the art one But the majority I think are 50 Yeah, it's like 50 bucks up front 40 bucks a year, but yeah, who are you hurting with this law you're hurting yourself 115 00:25:37,380 --> 00:25:47,420 You're not making the extra money from these vanity plates, correct? Also, what's it for 10 years? Yeah for 10 years that shit adds up. Yeah, you know what it is. So it's punishment. It's crime and punishment 116 00:25:47,420 --> 00:25:57,560 Yes, your car has to look like a normal car not a fail. Yeah, you can't it's you lose privileges you drink and drive You lose fun privileges. Apparently. I just feel like there's other privileges you could lose. I do too 117 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:12,040 I mean I make more said I'd be fucking pissed but it's weird. But once again, this is New Jersey Yeah, no more a Coley plate kiss my ass my gosh just go register your car in New York instead 118 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:24,860 Yeah, if anybody's looking for someone to register your car do it in Arizona like doesn't have to pass smog You don't need a front plate. You don't mean a front plate. It could be like 30 feet in the air 119 00:26:24,860 --> 00:26:37,840 There's no wild wild west out there. Arizona is good for certain things I feel like plates are like I mean a lot of people are being really soft on that hole. Oh not, California No, you have to have they're doing this whole thing where you can do like a decal. Oh, really? 120 00:26:37,980 --> 00:26:48,160 Oh, they were like testing it. It's almost like a like a printed sticker vinyl sticker and it goes over your bumper But it still shows Wherever it's supposed to be at least you have to mount up 121 00:26:48,160 --> 00:27:01,860 You don't mount a plate if you have like you just have to peel your paint off when you go to take it off probably yeah Flex I have received Multiple front plate tickets really in my life actual tickets actual tickets. That's blue 122 00:27:01,860 --> 00:27:12,740 So when you pay I'm right you don't do the fix it where you fix it or do you fix it and then take it off? Um, you really put bolts through your shit like it. Yeah thing when I so for the first car that I got it on 123 00:27:12,740 --> 00:27:23,820 I actually had a plate but it was like shorter like, you know twist tight on there, but there wasn't a spot for it. So And it was backyard wrestling of you, right 124 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:35,360 So, I think I just paid it because it was like $15 and then but by the time I got my next two with my next car they Significantly gone up so on the on the third offense 125 00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:49,640 I was like I'm gonna put a front plate on my car because my second car didn't come with a front plate when I bought it didn't have it I was like that's fine it looks way better this way anyways and After two tickets on my second one on that cars like you know, I'm gonna do I'm gonna put a front plate on this car 126 00:27:49,640 --> 00:28:01,720 Now that makes sense. Yeah, so what is the front plate do it just helps identify? It's easier to give you a ticket Yeah, and they you know for amber alerts and stuff like that if you can identify the vehicle from front or back 127 00:28:02,540 --> 00:28:13,700 You know, it's the whole thing. Okay, really? It's just easier to get. Yeah, it's California. Yeah, we're really no better car stuff here It's a little obnoxious. Okay. Yeah, right right on 128 00:28:14,220 --> 00:28:27,780 Right.

Sure for real great can up 138 00:30:19,780 --> 00:30:32,600 Imperial milkshake it is a nine point three percent Okay, so this a BV it hits pretty solid the price was $16.99 a four-pack that's pretty damn solid 139 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:45,300 That's great. Yeah for a nine point three. Yeah, I mean it it checked it solidified it I said the only reason I was debating on getting it is because I don't know if I want to try myself a 140 00:30:45,300 --> 00:30:57,900 Pumpkin spice milkshake. Yeah, especially four of them. I've never had it especially four of them So I figured you know what? Let's let's give it a whirl. So untapped has it at a 141 00:30:57,900 --> 00:31:11,720 4.07 bullshit of 5,000 pull check it Just just saying what what what the thing says it's a thingy Greg it's not you it's a thingy. Uh-huh 142 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:26,620 And it says that forbidden pumpkin is an imperial pumpkin milkshake IPA that clocks in at nine point three percent brewed with malted oats Flaked wheat double dry hopped with citra and mosaic then fermented atop a monstrous amount of pumpkins vanilla beans 143 00:31:26,620 --> 00:31:41,940 pumpkin spice and milk sugar This hazy IPA pairs perfectly with hoodies fall hikes and a night out by the fire pit with friends So I'm not gonna lie Greg. All right digging in this. I know please let us know it smells it smells wonderful 144 00:31:41,940 --> 00:31:53,920 It smells like pumpkin pie. I Love pumpkin pie is the like the actual pie. Yeah The smell of it is delicious, okay, so this is like a little bit lighter version of that 145 00:31:53,920 --> 00:32:05,900 It's not like thick with the aroma, but it's like you can tell it's oh, yeah, you smell like wow That's pumpkin pie the appearance of it is looks like juice. It looks a little juicy cider it it look 146 00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:16,340 It looks like a hazy IPA. Yeah, it looks like a double hazy. That's got a little too much molten It's a little dark.

It's not overly sweet at all So like you get the pumpkin spice most of all, okay 150 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:16,460 Hold on one second the cinnamon the nutmeg you still get some bitter from the hops like the mosaic So that's a weird thing. So you get the pumpkin spices You can like already tell that vanilla rounding it out like smoothing it out with the milk sugar 151 00:33:16,460 --> 00:33:31,420 And you still do get like that hop Characteristic at the end like that real minimum minimal low-end bitterness It's like oddly enjoyable. This is it's really oddly enjoyable. I don't even know 152 00:33:32,060 --> 00:33:46,100 Like I was to describe it.
