You could have took all the credit for it.

Monster is coming out with an alcoholic beverage.
A judge has requested another request from stone flirt.
OK, Florida woman is having the time of her life.
And when I say
no, I mean she might be, too.
But it's not fair to put Vanessa and this Florida woman in the same boat.
And we'll see if we can piss flecks off with this list of your.
Hi, Vanessa.
She deserves a beginning of the show.
Hello, because is Vanessa like we've said all along, she is the light
that is the darkness of Florida,
you know?
Well well, I'm excited for this list, so, you know, I like getting pissed off.
Yeah, I can't wait.
We'll see how many Goose Islands are on it.
Probably nine of 12 or whatever.
I can't wait. Yeah.
Let's get right into it.
I am thirsty.
Let's start with some hydration.
Legs.
Looks intense.
I am drinking pure project Bruins Mirka, Veli, the double hazy
and it is in collaboration
with weathered sail brewing over there in Texas who's been on the show
8.8% 50 abuse and has a very respectable 419 and untapped
murky valley is a throwback in more ways than one.
This collaboration with weathered souls brewing company
was one of the original murky IPAs and we were excited to brew it once again.
Galaxy in Sitra hip hop out of this can bring incense of pineapple
sweet citrus and passion fruit while flavors of apricot or is it apricot?
It's rap ricotta because we are from America.
If you were from the UK you would say apricot maybe you can asshole.
And a night of the order of the hops and I say apricot.
Well, we know you're not so say apricot.
God dang it.
Go back to the O8 you already there and they go back to the Midwest.
You fuck, it's apricot, God damn it.
Well, tell us how this beer is, Greg.
I'm sticking my my my schnoz into the beer right now.
I don't recommend sucking in through the showers.
Also known as snorting.
Mm mm. Do you see that for Vegas
on the nose?
L drug? Yeah.
I love cocaine on the nose.
Are you a little with the pineapple?
A little bit of sweetness as well on the old tongue
java, though, that's where it starts to pick up a little bit.
A lot of passion fruit on the tongue that they talked about.
Some some more sweetness that kind of follows the nose
and it finishes with a nice bit of ding that kind of dries
everything up and makes you think I'll take another.
You know what?
Let me tell you what I know that IPAs that have that little bit of sweetness
and then finish with the dank flavor
that is like my shit like that.
That is like the go to
if you find any IPA like that.
To me, that's like top notch.
Yeah. It's a bit of a roller coaster, right?
It's like, oh, a little tropical fruit.
Oh, a little sweetness and drink right down.
The just that, that finish.
It's just so. Wonderful. Yeah. It's good.
And as a huge fan of nineties hip hop, I love the can.
It looks like a parental advisory label.
That is awesome.
It says Double India on top and then in White Murky Valley
and then on the bottom paleo. So love it.
Here.
Does a great job with their cannot there labels there.
The the beer itself is always phenomenal.
I've been lucky enough,
you know for having you as a friend to send me some so I could try.
I still use some birthday beer I could get you some more pure out there.
Now let's not talk about owing who owes who beer.
Let's not bring that up. OK how about this?
Probably owe you beer.
I would like to send you some birthday beer even though you're.
Half the. Month and a half ago. That's fine.
We'll
call it August late August beer just for the fun of it.
OK? Yeah.
I mean, you know, that's pure.
It's gonna be, you know, if it's beer, is going to be good.
And I love multiple hip hop.
I was going to play like, you know, a
Machiavelli slash Tupac song, and then I realized I like doing the show.
I don't want to be sued, so. Don't be. Sick.
We don't like getting sued.
Please don't sue us.
Yeah. No more.
No more lawsuits, please. Yeah.
We can't afford those those stone lawyers.
So Stone.
We want $116 million in damages.
Right?
Here's 50. OK.
Now. Fair enough.
Fair enough.
One thing I wanted to bring up, this is kind of cool.
So we've talked about for, I mean a year now that Finland where huge
in Finland and one of these days the world tour will commence.
And by world tour I mean only Finland.
But we might have to add a country to our list.
Mm. We are we are charting real big in India these days.
Get the hell out of here. Wow. Yeah.
We peaked at number six on the apple podcast
India charts for hobbies and number 38 for pleasure.
Well what's up India.
Ten second roll
is there like Indian beer.
There's got to be right.
I mean there's got it right because like it's like a it's got to be a thing.
Cause they're not.
I don't know.
Does anybody from India listen to us?
I mean, apparently because we're so top of the show I.
Mean anybody I don't know and the gram and the tweeter and.
Yeah, I write it. Up on the Twitter.
Uh, Scott, you love Indian food.
Have you had any Indian beer?
I have. I'm.
I'm just right here. I'm trying.
I'm beating myself in the head trying to remember some names of the beer.
Don't make it worse.
And it can't get anywhere.
It's ok. OK.
Uh, Nielsen, the dead horse.
Yeah.
And then also, there's an app out.
There's not new, but they're recently kind of
coming up in the podcast listening apps.
It's called Good Pods, and we charted on them a couple of times.
Number 17 in the top 100 hobbies.
Number 30 in the top 117, top 100 indie hobbies, 30
top 100 hobbies, and number 97 in the top 100 indie leisure charts.
So I don't know what's going on out there, but I appreciate everyone
that's checking us out and listening and helping us top some charts.
Yeah, I'm definitely here for it. Yeah.
That's why Flex keeps getting stopped in the street is like, Hey, algorithm.
I'm still
convinced that somehow these apps or,
you know, these statistics are giving like
zip codes or latitude
like coordinates mixed up with like other areas.
Because why would we I don't know, Finland in India.
That's crazy. Right?
Yeah.
No one in America is listening to us.
Or huge overseas.
Hey, real quick. I just.
Yeah, there's a couple of beers that I had.
I did remember India, Kingfisher, and Taj Mahal.
Oh, come on.
That last one is a little on the nose.
OK, I made that one was my.
How did you really know?
Actually, there's I'm pretty sure that's what it was called, Taj Mahal.
I mean, I believe it.
That sounds like some American went over to India.
I was like, I got a great idea.
We're going to go home.
I mean, I don't I don't lie ever so.
True that well, we haven't heard this in a while. So you deserve a.
Oh, wow.
Lex probably hasn't heard that before.
I've heard it a few times.
I'm just waiting for the Scottie doesn't know.
Dropped to come in.
Scottie knew.
Scottie doesn't know.
Scottie doesn't. Know.
Oh, so anyways,
thinks India and Finland four are still top in the charts. And.
Yes, mega thank you's to everybody. Yes.
Yeah, we're going to pack up the private jet and,
uh, hit the hit the oceans.
I still have joking around that they sell like the bootleg merchandise
in the streets.
You know, like craft beer republic with a k.
Like capital r, but lowercase C, like.
Craft beer.
That's.
I got a.
Sworn way to, like, hit the charts in Czech Republic.
We talked about them last week. That's right.
I mean, I'm still waiting for that invite for the order of the hops.
Yeah.
Come on, chicks.
It's on the way. The slow. Yeah. So
the long drive.
From the Czech Republic
they'll. Figure it out eventually.
Glove club. Of.
First of all, how is your guys this weekend?
You guys get out and do any beer research, anything fun to talk about?
Man he many ketamine.
Do you think I get out?
No. You got children, Scott. What about you.
Uh, going to so no.
OK, fair yeah.
I mean, I've been sick at home.
The wife has the the vid, which, I don't know, he wants me
to tell people, but the is she get the realness.
We're sleeping that's. Out of the bag now, man.
At this point, it's been a week, and I still don't have it, so, yeah,
for me, she hasn't drank in over a week, and every night I'm like, downstairs
drinking beers, doing some damage to that fridge.
Uh, but sleeping on an air mattress fucking sucks, but it's been nice,
and I have to share my beer.
That's it. Has not drinking made her irritable?
Doesn't everything make a wife?
You're joking.
No, she.
I didn't know you were.
Supposed to drink beer.
Yeah, my bed.
I'm still drinking beer. I'm.
In fact, I think the alcohol is what's keeping me from getting the covered.
It kills germs. I'm.
I've been great. I mean, that's why I go over so quick.
Yeah, and it's.
It's the cure. It's every couple of days.
Yeah. How was how was your covered?
You seem pretty light it was, like, a month ago. Yeah.
Yeah, it wasn't that bad. I mean, I woke up.
The only reason I even tested because I had a sore throat,
and usually I get them every now and then, and you know, as the morning goes on,
they go away.
But it didn't. It got worse.
So I mentioned it to the wife.
She goes here to do this.
So I took the test is positive.
So but I didn't.
There's like the worst symptom, I think.
I didn't never really get, like, the achy and all that stuff,
but I just kept testing positive and getting pissed off.
She's like, here, here's the asshole test.
Yeah, positive.
Yeah. Me.
Yeah. And you know, why go.
You are an asshole. OK? Yes.
That's the highest school I've ever seen.
Yeah.
My my big mistake was I got pissed off and went to a public place
to get tested when the probably everybody else.
Yeah, well, no.
Then they test me and once I test positive there,
then they have to tell the county that I'm getting a hundred texts from the county.
You tested positive.
Please fill out this survey and all this.
You get like a bunch of text in the county and then like one text just like you up.
I, I did.
As a matter of fact.
That's what.
What are you doing? Yeah.
We're just letter you. What you doing?
That dude. Is. Yeah.
Would you like to get $5,000 a week from your sugar daddy?
Those are always my favorite. I'm waiting. Daddy.
Eddie.
Yeah.
Here's, like, you know, we had it February 20.
20 before
we could actually test for it, but, like, those are the worst body aches ever.
This one is a lot of coughing.
Coming from the room across the hallway, but not nearly as bad
as the first time we had it. But it is lasting a while.
The first time we had it was super hard, you know, but it's super hard.
But didn't last very long.
So late in my
bit like, you know, on the first go around by the day, it's served on a Monday.
By Thursday, like I was pretty good. Same with her.
She's like a day behind me. On Tuesday, she started really to feel it.
And then by like Friday, Saturday, she was fine and feeling normal again.
Like this one is lasting longer.
But the first one was like, oh my God.
Like, I thought I was going to pass out driving home from work.
Yeah, I'm an idiot.
And I went to work I didn't know had contact with anything yet again.
Who knew? Yeah.
So anyways, it's been fun,
you know, sleeping in the same room that I work in
and then working in the same room that I sleep in.
It's not depressing at all.
I'm fine. You're fine. I'm fine.
Isn't that like a, like a don't crap where you eat kind of thing?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
Shitting and.
Eating plates, dirty.
Good times, though.
Oh, God.
Can't wait till this is over.
Like drinking it over there.
I mean, just tell it.
Would you just casually drinking this check pilsner.
I know I talked a few times
about this new lager program that Eagle Park has been running.
Oh, yeah.
You just keep bringing out different styles of lager throughout the year.
And they just released this about two weeks ago.
It's 5.2%.
And I don't know much about the the check pills,
other than most of them are used.
They're delicious.
And then you have the check size hop.
Mm. Is the hop used.
But let's see.
So I looked it up and I tell you what, pale gold color
and brilliant and very clear, I would say super nailed it.
The size hop.
Nailed it. Mm hmm.
Let's see what else more forward, which it is.
And then notes of biscuit, cracker and bread.
Let's just stick the tongue jabber and just super cool.
So kind of informal, you know, I just asking to do it now.
So look, we don't always need reservations for the tongue jabber.
Sometimes it's a surprise. Wow.
I'm honored.
This is the first time I've actually seen the tongues.
You only heard about it.
I'll tell you what it is already.
I it.
Is basically, I would say this totally nails it as a Czech pilsner.
Super pleased with this one. Nice.
I wonder if Matt Brant Olsen, who is the night of the order of the hops
from the Czech Republic, would approve as well.
Yeah, I'll send him one. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm sure he's lacking beer.
You know, just so he can see what it tastes like.
And he can say, you know, you know what, flex
this does check all the boxes for a Czech Pils.
How big is a box?
Nailed it. Oh.
Uh, check those boxes.
I like it.
I like you.
You know. Oh, sorry. Yeah.
So much. You're still. Cute.
It's getting.
It's going to go away one of these days, I swear.
Yeah, until the.
Next.
Before she hits me and just makes it stay permanent.
Right.
The three months that flex that eye is still looking real dark.
Well, I.
From the stairs.
Yeah,
oh, gosh.
Before you find out with scotch drinking over there,
it'll tell you a little Ludacris libation law.
We're taking a trip to Kansas.
Where I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.
Oh, man.
Dead jokes are running wild tonight.
All everyone.
Kansas a retail, liquor
store, licensees or someone trying to get a license for a liquor store.
Must have been a United States citizen for at least ten years.
I feel like it's easier to get elected office.
Yeah. Yeah.
So if you haven't been a citizen for ten years, you're trying to open up
the old the come and go in Kansas, by the way, that's a real liquor store.
That is a real. It's a real place.
Yes. Yeah, there's a lot of them.
A lot of come and goes in Colorado.
That you're talking about.
My wedding night.
Sorry. Yeah, oh, dear.
That was just go.
I I. Yeah.
You must be a citizen for ten years, though.
Fucking weird, Kansas.
Yeah, that's super weird. Yeah. What's wrong?
Somebody who hasn't been here for ten years.
Doesn't know how to drink.
And also, like that ten year mark comes around is like or.
Can't own a business. Yeah. What the.
Yeah, sounds.
Sounds like some racist shit. Come on, Kansas.
I was going to say it, but you said.
It nailed it. Classic Kansas.
Classic vintage, as Michael Cole would say, vintage.
Let's make a call to the pin if I know it's got.
Drag it over there.
Oh, Vin,
what you sipping on?
I am sipping
like Angel IPA.
I just thought you were going to say Black Angus and that.
Yeah, well, think those are around anymore.
But who's eating beef?
It's a dark beer and give me a second. Me?
I'm not going to even try to attempt that.
No, no, no. Nobody can.
It's just.
It's not worth that.
Well, all look like fools.
We'll lose all of Finland and India combined.
It's just not.
Not worth. It.
Maybe that's what they're into.
Oh, well, but just from you
and saying, like, if it's not a flex tongue job or nobody wants to quit.
I'm selling yourselves short.
I'm honored to finally be able to see it yeah.
Yeah, it's good.
It's a darker IPA, fruity citrus piney taste at the beginning, and.
Any chocolate ness.
Yep. It.
That's what I like about the dark IPA. Yeah.
At the end, they get a little bit and a little bit of caramel
kind of sneaking in there too.
Little sweetness.
Yes. That sounds real nice.
Yeah.
I have to say, Britt over at Natty Pine has a rye dark IPA right now.
In fact, I think it's almost out.
My meow bites on this drop. Hmm.
It was for Emo Fest and Chefs Kiss.
It was.
It was fantastic.
Tell you what, I love me a rye IPA
dried dark IPA.
Yeah. Puts Rye into every beer.
She makes. Jesus Christmas. That's the best.
Yeah. Come on out. Come on out.
I'm not going to lie rye.
Double hazy is probably one of the best beers I've ever had my entire life.
I've had. A ride. Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
It's got.
You've burned a native pine, right?
I have. Yes.
I'll try it for the life show.
Yes. Yes, you're. Right.
Yeah, man, I love those beers. Are there?
Oh, I was looking up the description
of Black Angel, and they don't have one of those fuckers.
Nor do you chose this one.
There was nothing to read. That's perfect.
I can't. Read anyway.
Read is the perfect beer.
There's nothing I. Wouldn't have known either.
Way. Yeah.
All right. Well, so is it a winner or.
Uh, no, absolutely. It's very good.
Yeah, I can read the description to you.
I mean, well, it just says it's American Black Ale, but, I mean.
The taste. There's not much on the way. There's not
much else to add.
To it, but I recommend it.
I love black IPAs.
There's not enough in this world. They're so good. They're so unique.
My favorite.
I know.
They're, like, on the naughty list
for being not craft anymore, but my favorite stone.
One of the favorites of all time was there enjoy by for Valentine's Day
a few years ago as enjoyed by like 02 14 I'm going to guess on the year
and just say like 16 or 17 and it was a dark chocolate IPA it was.
Delicious I would say a lot of breweries around here it would be like
like an annual release, you know, almost like a seasonal type deal
and they wouldn't last on the shelves very long like let me tell you.
And then you.
Know and not a lot of people even make them anymore
so that when you do see them, it's just kind of like, oh my God,
I got to try that or pick it up or do something with it.
Yeah, few and far between, so.
Well, very nice.
You found a beer in that from Canada too.
It is, yeah. With the brewery.
So it's dildo.
You're not.
Wrong.
Dildo Canada could be from Joe, though.
I don't know.
I didn't see where Cindy was from.
I hope we topped the charts, though.
Dodo Canada.
I'd love to say that word.
Number one. And Dildo.
I know that would be a great thing to say.
I just don't want to say dildos and number one.
And us
I wish I had the drop of Ron Burgundy saying this.
Oh, no, no. It's.
It's Will Ferrell has Alex Trebek, and this show is hitting
all time. Low.
Oh, I do.
I do. Yeah.
You had to fit it in, didn't you?
Yeah, Daddy. Yeah.
Yeah. Well, I can ruin it for you.
Oh, Burnaby, British Canada.
British something.
British Columbia University, Columbia.
British Columbia. Thank you. You said B C.
Oh, hey.
Let's just say dill, though. It's easier to say. Yeah. Drink
straight at a dildo.
Canada
Black Angel IPA Steam works.
Don't listen to this be like we're nowhere near deal.
Don't, can't. Me. Wrong with you?
I never heard of Dill.
Yeah, they're not a fuck. No, that's what I'm saying.
I'm hoping they're like, what's dill though?
Canada. Yeah.
I wonder if.
Yeah, I want are there any Canadians are like,
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about
and if they're serious about it, do.
Not the ones from Dill though.
I always feel like it's got to be like
if if you go to high school in Canada, it's like the summer drive.
Like you, you and your friends have to go there just to say you were there.
Right?
Even if it takes like four weeks to drive to because Canada is fucking huge.
Like in California, like the big trip, and then high school
is like going to Cabo or something because you can drink in Mexico at 18.
But yeah, in Canada the big trip is going to deal though.
It's a big trip.
All right.
Hey, OK, sir.
We love Canada.
Oh, we do. And special deal though.
Canada spring break.
Until you guys.
Or deal doing spring break. We.
We are mature
bit news Al asylum over in.
Uh. Lexi's head over there.
Yeah that's my head.
Permanently closed last week
after 16 years they had planned to sell the brewery
I guess the sale went through or fell through
and did not go through and now they'll be closing their doors.
Yeah that's super sad
they had to a super cool spot right off the river and downtown Milwaukee
that ended up closing a few years back and nobody knew why.
And everybody questioned it because it was so rad,
and they actually put out some pretty, pretty solid beer.
Velvet Rabbit was one of them.
It was like one of those $16.06 packs you know, like a IPA
type deal back like seven years ago when I was a big thing.
Super good beer.
Yeah, that's shocking.
Unfortunate.
Yeah. Yeah, I guess it fit the algorithm.
So where they go.
Don't blame it on me.
And. I don't blame it on you.
I blame it on them not fitting the algorithm.
And now I got it. I got it.
It's nice
monster flex.
You drink energy drinks.
All the time. It's, it's unhealthy.
Everybody tells me about how bad it is for me, which I already know.
I can't stop it.
I just learned that the healthiest, most rep person
here is like, I love all the unhealthy things.
What is your energy?
Drink of choice is a monster chance.
So it's not it is the ghost energy drinks
that have recently surfaced within the last four or so months.
OK, I never heard of that. It's got.
Are you are you drinking energy drinks these days?
I haven't had one in a long time.
Yes, probably like ten years for me. Yeah.
But this is good news for Flex.
Monster reveals their plans to release a 6%
beast unleashed. G's.
Energy drink. 6%.
Is. I started getting like a flavor.
Uh, beast unleashed
Brock Lesnar taint.
I don't know
if you people might get that joke
outside of this group. Maybe one.
Yeah, I don't was so good. I'm speechless.
I yeah.
Here's my. Thing.
It's called Beast Unleashed, and it's only 6% like that.
Some not very beastie numbers.
So you get hyper and drunk.
Or or not. You mostly get hyper at six.
I mean, you get 6%. Yeah. Yeah. Was it. Was the.
So is there going to be caffeine right there?
I like all of them. Five, I think.
Yeah.
Well, the Aurora or one of those called Select Bud Light Select.
Oh, no. Platinum. Bud Light platinum. Though.
Yeah, those are those are six. Yeah, those are some.
He said they're disgusting, but they're 6%.
So I feel like.
We used to drink those all the time.
Look, when I went to Miami, uh, ten ish years ago,
I had a lot of Bud Light platinum in Miami.
But do you know.
Why we had the same price as Bud Light?
You got double the above. Well, do you know, I bought them
that blue glass bottle?
It was a cool looking bottle.
How fucking cool is that?
Yeah, they tasted like, but.
But they're cool again.
But so bad.
Yeah, but the blue bottle and the 6%.
While your friends drinking a 4.2% domestic, they come for the same.
Price. Come on.
Yeah, come on.
Put put your thinking cap on beast unleashed.
I'm just.
I just feel like, you know, that skins the eight to 10% range
if you're going to be a beast unleashed by a judge
has rejected Stone's request
for a permanent injunction against Molson.
So I'm no lawyer here.
But in short, Stone wanted to make it so that Molson Coors
could not sell any of the packaging
that they sued Molson Coors over.
The judge had originally said, like, they can sell what's already in stores,
they can't release more.
And the judge rejected it.
Said, like let them fucking sell what's in the stores already.
Yeah, just chill out.
Yeah. Basically chill the fuck out
a Florida.
I think this is going be the best story than I sure hope so.
A Florida woman was arrested for driving a golf cart
on a highway while drunk
The 58 year old woman
was arrested on Saturday night on the shoulder of Interstate 95.
She's now facing misdemeanor charges for disorderly intoxication in a public place.
And resisting an officer without violence.
However, there's like resisting with and resisting without violence.
Thanks, Florida, according to. That.
Just like verbally saying you can't arrest me like you're right.
I said no.
I said good. Day.
That's all good.
Yeah. Yeah.
According to a Florida highway patrol report,
a semi truck driver spotted the woman driving him in the golf
cart in the center lane of I-95 in Brevard County.
By the way,
the story that Vanessa sent us last week was also from Brevard County was, oh.
Geez, this is a golf cart.
So my.
Florida handing out those cards.
Ray, apparently nobody in Florida owns a fucking car.
So Art's right.
Next week it's going to be a drunk wagon
puller or something.
Like.
Hook the dog up to the wagon.
We're going down the highway all drunk.
The truck driver said that she observed the driver of the golf cart
passing out while driving.
The truck driver used her semi
to steer the golf cart to the shoulder of the interstate.
Once on the shoulder of the truck, driver grabbed the keys of the golf cart
as the woman did drive away again once troopers arrived at the scene,
the woman started arguing with them and insisted that she needed her bag.
Inside the bag, troopers found an open bottle of Jack Daniels
Tennessee fire whiskey she couldn't even afford Fireball.
She wanted the Jack Daniels fire whiskey.
Interstate 95, which
stretches up and down the coast, is Florida's busiest interstate
highway, according to the Federal Highway Administration.
Smooth. Very smooth.
Is that better than the Smirnoff from last week?
I don't know. You tell me. Yeah.
They're both pretty fantastic.
Super fantastic.
Yeah. Thanks, Florida.
Thanks for all the entertainment and nothing. No,
thanks for the entertainment.
And thanks for Vanessa. And that's where it ends.
I don't know.
I'm just thinking about Florida.
What else they have to offer.
Gators and hand grenades.
Nailed it.
Yeah.
And the old people, communities, I don't know.
Where people and cards and getting drunk and.
Yeah, certainly no cars.
No cars, scooters and no.
Cars. Yeah.
Anything over two horsepower does not exist in Florida.
Oh, flex.
You feeling good? Can I anger you?
I'm in a
pretty decent mood right now, so please.
Let's see if we can change that untapped 12
highest rated black IPAs of 20, 22.
Let's see.
The good news about black IP is is the pretty rare.
So I feel like
we're not going to get fucking Budweiser select black IPA in this. No.
And I feel like I can hardly get upset.
Yeah. So we'll see how this goes.
This this ties in nicely with what Scott's drinking over there
starting number 12 dark bidding, funky fluid.
I never heard of that.
So yeah.
Good name yeah.
Number 11 frostbite.
Black IPA from Foothills Brewing Company.
Number Ten Surly Brewing Companies.
Damian Screen Name Number nine
When I fuck this up Configure manager for me No no.
Good. Yeah, got it.
Black bucket black IPA
Number eight Pelican Brewing Company Bad Santa
number seven.
Oh Sounds German Mm hmm.
I feel like there's a swear word.
The next one.
Yeah. Let's go to number six.
Number seven, Brahman.
Fuck ter.
Yeah. No.
That's the brewery.
The beer called Dunkel.
Zoltan. Yep.
I think I got it.
Yeah, you nailed it.
You've done your homework.
Goodnight, everybody.
I'll stop there.
Number six Cascadian Rhythm from Burnt Mill Brewery.
Number five, funky fluids, triple coffee.
And Salt.
Weird. That sounds good.
It sounds interesting.
I would definitely trade number four.
Here's the first non craft to make the list.
Well, I can't speak for the German brew.
I came in, say the German Bells Brewery, Black Hearted Ale.
I didn't know they had a black heart.
Adele, it sounds interesting because I like to hard it ale
number three Treehouse Bruins Raven.
Shocker. I hear they like deletes.
Anybody.
Even flip.
Even to.
The like to.
Drop to a holding Scottie Riggs and who is still there yeah.
You're welcome.
One person that was the one that understood that
and really that person is Zach number two Stone Bruins
2021 release of stone sublimely self-righteous black IPA.
And I can genuinely say that I'm happy
for the number one black IPA here Firestone Walker
brewing companies wookie Jack.
I like the name.
It's a great beer they. Are good yeah yeah.
They had it years ago and they retired and they had three beers that
in the end of 2016.
This is the early days of the unfiltered adrenaline
at the end of 2016 they retired and we had a couple of episodes
dedicated to the retirement of these three beers.
One of them was Whiskey Jack and then they brought it out I believe last year so.
Well now I'm curious what is the untapped rating on that.
Let's see it is a collective
4.15 OK.
Yeah, yeah.
Looks pretty solid for a black IPA.
Yeah.
I'll tell you, most of these are in the threes.
People don't know how to rate black IPA.
That's crazy.
Mm. I remember the first time I put a black IPA
my mouth and it was like your brain.
Yeah. And it.
I do it, I'm all ears.
But it's like your brain is just kind of like, what the fuck is going on?
And then your eyes open up real wide and you're just like, Yeah,
what the fuck is going on?
And it's just like, it was like one of the best things to ever
just grace over your palate.
Yeah, it is so good.
And I will tell you with certainty that Lukey
Jack is the only beer on this list of 12 that has a four or above hmm.
This brings me back to something that we've been saying for weeks.
Fuck you, untapped users.
Fuck you. Yeah.
And it's like every, you know, we
I shouldn't say we are ever on, but, you know, untapped gets the shitty.
Wow. What's the word?
I'm looking for people now.
I know. I feel like you.
I don't know you just get kind of like a bad rap for people who,
you know, don't rate how the beer actually is and.
The people don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
And the going don't like is too weird.
Or, like, if you're going to go drink in IPA or say you're a fan of like
regular IPAs or classics like West Coast and then you have a black IPA
not knowing what it is, and then you rate it based on how dumb you are.
I know.
I know you nailed.
It. Like, I think that's kind of what it is.
That's exactly what it is.
We don't know who are reading this and they're expecting something different.
Yeah, yeah.
They just see IPA and they don't know. Yeah.
Maybe buying it
because of the name or something and it wasn't what they were expecting.
So it's a bad rating. Well, I mean it's a good beer.
It just wasn't what you thought it was going to be, so.
Right, correct?
Yeah.
Which is why I was, I was thinking about this the other day.
It was like Untap needs to there's got to be like some
setting or category two where it's like, is it like a beer style
that you normally like to drink and you should be able to like tap that
say like, this is the style I normally drink or that a style that I like.
So then it kind of like can sway the ratings a little bit
where it's like is this a new style for you?
And then you could click yes and then rate it however you think to rate it.
I get on board with that.
Is that kind of I feel felt like those kind of genius.
Yeah.
And I try like if I'm rating something, I don't generally like, like I don't love
Belgian beers for the most part.
I will try and rate it as the style, not as my preferences.
So to be like, yes, this is a four, even though I don't like Belgian
beers, it fucking meets, you know.
The criteria.
Yeah, yeah.
So and I do that sometimes too. Absolutely.
No, your beer and shut your mouth.
There we go.
I oh, that was like last week.
Oops.
Yes, my what?
Scotty's cookin. La la la la la la la la.
Doing the warm over there.
I'll end it with this one.
A drunk tourist takes a dip
into an empty swimming pool.
A Dutch tour.
Ouch.
Dude, I think I know him as Scott.
I know this guy.
A Dutch tourist in Crete was rushed to the hospital
with serious injuries after he jumped into an empty swimming pool on Saturday.
The incident happened at a hotel in.
Oh, God. Here's a name.
Here's here's someone is.
Jesus Christ. Oh, yeah.
I've been there. Yeah.
So here we're. Topping the charts.
Great swimming pool.
Yeah. It's real clear.
Yeah.
Reports say that the 20 year old tourist was intoxicated and did not realize
that the pool was empty.
Yeah, that's fuckin crazy.
Yeah. Scott's got a friend who did something similar.
The pool was not empty, but he found the shallow end before he found the deep end.
Yikes. Yeah. Sounds like a lot of blood.
It was.
The craziest part was the, uh, the bottom of the pool.
Got a crack at it.
Yeah. Yeah.
I heard or is Denmark? Germany?
It's Crete.
Oh, Crete. I'm sorry.
Yeah, wherever that is.
No, probably not where all the smart people are.
I don't know. Yeah.
We're
going to be famous next week in Crete, wherever that is.
That'll be part of our tour. Yeah.
I don't even know.
I feel like an idiot now. You are.
That means that means we should get some music and get the fuck out of here.
Clearly, we drink too much.
Oh, fine.
Is on the Social's crappy republic across the board.
Flex me a beer with underscores in between on the Graham and Scott.
Is that unfiltered?
Scott on the old Twitter, there are 80553 beer.
2337.
That's the number to call meal craft beer about.com.
Scott, thanks for, uh.
I don't know, hanging up on tech support and hanging out with us.
Yeah, it.
Was a pleasure.
Yeah, thank you. The pleasure is mine. Thanks for having.
I don't know where they're grown over there.
Yeah, it was. Oh, yeah.
I hope everyone in the meantime is staying very well hydrated.
And on that note. Goodnight, everybody.
