S5-E12, Have you ever wondered how a sour beer could evoke childhood memories of Grandma's peach cobbler or that irresistible sunshine pie? Join us as we swap Bob's usual antics for a whimsical journey through the world of tangy brews. We pop open Left Hand Brewing Company's Breezy Does It and Distill Brewery's Wild Sour Series Peach Cobbler, and let me tell you, our taste buds are on an exhilarating ride through the past and present. Our casual chat meanders from the nostalgic kiss of passion fruit and rhubarb to the deeper bonds of household harmony—or the hilarious lack thereof.
Now, imagine coming home to find the gas tank on empty or the dishes questionably 'clean'—sound familiar? We've all been there, and in this episode, we don't just sample sours; we spill the tea on those tiny domestic quirks that can spark hilarity or havoc in our homes. Between sips of fruity, tart delight, we share relatable tales and tackle the great gas tank debate, all while keeping the laughter flowing as freely as our beer. It's a session full of flavor, anecdotes, and a dash of mischief with a mayonnaise squirt gun—because, why not?
As we wrap up our beer tasting adventure, we toss around thoughts on survival by water alone and the icy mysteries of the poles, all while our palates rejoice over the complex dance of cinnamon and vanilla in our glasses. We raise a glass to you, our listeners, for joining us on this effervescent escapade through sour ales and life's simple, sometimes sour, pleasures. Remember, as we reflect on the love that's brewing for these complex concoctions, to savor responsibly and cherish the good sips and the even better company. Cheers to that!

S5-E22, Ever wondered what it's like to sip a vacation from a can? We kick off this episode with an in-depth tasting of Breezy's Tropical Juice, which combines pineapple, cranberry, and coconut flavors with an 8% alcohol punch. Initially mistaken for separate flavors, this pina colada-like beverage quickly won us over with its no sweeteners, gluten-free, and electrolyte-rich profile. Perfect for poolside lounging or yard work, we deliberate on whether this limited-edition drink deserves a permanent spot in our fridges.
Next, join us for some late-night laughs and relatable stories that are sure to brighten your day. From a rough day on the golf course to hilarious bedtime mishaps, our banter covers everything from the impact of footwear on performance to sleep habits and accidental bed bumps. We even venture into the realm of modern tech, discussing AI voice modulation and swapping nostalgic music memories. This segment perfectly captures the camaraderie and humor of everyday life, making it a must-listen for those in need of a good chuckle.
To wrap things up, we dive into a whirlwind of jokes, trivia, and absurd hypotheticals. Ever heard of "cobra chickens"? Our conversation navigates humorously through that and much more, including debates about the freezing points of hot and cold water and quirky facts about Olympic boxing rules. We even entertain an outrageous scenario about fending off waves of children. It's a rollercoaster of laughs, learning, and lively discussions that highlight our fun and candid dynamic, ensuring you end your day with a smile.

S5-E21, Ever wondered if a blackberry peri-wheat beer could tickle your fancy or if a barrel-aged sour ale is as complex as it sounds? My co-hosts, Princess and Dr., and I embarked on a flavor journey, sipping our way through craft beers that made our taste buds sing and our spirits soar. Not just beer connoisseurs, we're your pals with stories of golf course shenanigans, friendly neighborly assistance when the well pump called it quits, and the ever-amusing battle against nature's debris in our own backyards.
Turns out, even a conversation about beer can lead to deeper discussions, like debunking the myth that healthy living is a luxury reserved for the wealthy. We shared a few chuckles over our past fast food faux pas, proving that while the golden arches can be tempting, a home-cooked meal might just be the hero we need for both our wallets and waistlines. Through a mix of light-hearted banter and personal anecdotes, we covered the fast food versus home-cooked meal conundrum, and just for kicks, tossed in our two cents on the great "beer popsicle" debate.
To wrap things up with a twist, we dived into a barrel of trivia that ranges from curious facts about whales to eye-opening insights on global literacy. Our energetic debate on whether a unique barrel-aged raspberry beer deserves a spot in your fridge might just entice you to give it a try—or at least provide a good laugh. So grab your favorite brew, pull up a chair, and join us for a session that promises more than just another round of drinks—it's a toast to life's unexpected lessons and the joy of good company.

Remember the last time you tried to read a menu in a candlelit room? Yeah, we feel your pain, and we're swapping tales of squinting and laughing in the face of fading eyesight. Get ready for anecdotes about phone calls that accidentally turn into all-night music marathons and alarms that are as ignored as vegetables on a kid's plate.

And, oh yes, there's a round of trivia—because who doesn't love a good brain teaser with friends?
Finally, what's a beer-tasting podcast without some serious suds talk?

An Appalachian Adventure
S5-E19, Our palates took us on an Appalachian adventure where the craft beers flowed as freely as the laughter. Rick's latest foray into Bridge Brew Works had us sipping on the formidable Three Rivers Triple, along with the Dun Glen Ale and Pergin Porter Lager, all while swapping tales from Fayetteville's whitewater rapids to the perils of post-beer pizza. It's not just about the brews though; our banter spanned from the nostalgia of indoor shopping malls to the curious case of Peter Pan peanut butter's place in the market.
The chat took an intriguing turn when we contrasted Carlsberg Brewery's Danish drinking policies with our own workplace cultures. Could a tipple on the clock ever fly in the US, or are we destined to keep such pleasures reserved for our off-hours? As we mulled over this with a Belgian style triple in hand, we couldn't help but reminisce about Blockbuster nights and how they've given way to the seamless stream of today's digital services.
Wrapping things up, we couldn't resist sharing our brewery beer ratings and the memories that these flavors conjured up – from sneaking candy into movie theaters to the simpler joys of video rental stores. While the beers tantalized our taste buds, we playfully debated their fridge-worthy status. So sit back, crack open your beverage of choice, and join us for a toast to the past, sprinkled with a healthy dose of contemporary musing.

We're not holding back any punches when it comes to discussing life's oddities and sharing stories that range from personal medical procedures (I promise, it's funnier than it sounds) to the unpredictable joy of road trip audiobooks. Our banter ricochets from the thrills of dodging aggressive drivers on snowy roads to musings about historical figures and biblical reading times—with a healthy serving of viral Crack Burgers thrown in for good measure. Whether you're a beer connoisseur or just here for the camaraderie, you'll feel right at home.
Keep your pint glass close as we rate and debate everything from the hoppy notes of IPAs to the sweet allure of ales. We'll cover a spectrum of beers as vast as the topics of our conversation—from the complexities of a sour ale's berry infusion to debating the merits of adding jalapenos to already-flavorful burgers. It's not just about the beer; it's about the shared laughter and those "you had to be there" moments that you won't want to miss. Tune in, and let's raise a glass to the unexpected pleasure of good company and even better stories.
