Equilibrium Mmm...osa, WeldWerks Werking Theory and Your Beer Horoscope in "What's Your Beer Sign?"
theunfilteredgentl
In Batch 462 of Craft Beer Republic, Flex is let down by a mimosa-inspired pale ale from Equilibrium, while Greg's WeldWerks and Barrel Theory double hazy earns every point of its rating. Listener Scott sends in a beer horoscope that pairs Greg with the style he hates most, Greg trades shots for burgers in his McDonald's days, and a Florida mail carrier takes her break at a house party.
What's Your Beer Sign?Listener Scott sent the best beer style for every zodiac sign. Flex is a Cancer, so pilsner, which he can dig. Greg is a Leo, which apparently means saison, and Greg says any beer described with sweat socks and wet hay can go down the sink. Flex defends a saison or two, including a cucumber saison from his local brewpub.
A New Bottle Shop and BarGreg tried a new bottle shop with a small bar in the Conejo Valley, with MadeWest, There Does Not Exist, Fieldwork and Beachwood on tap and a fridge that reminded him of the days of hunting down specialty beers. They also do a pour me whatever wine option, which fits Greg and Shannon's habit of making each other guess what they're drinking.
The Worst Untappd ReviewGreg remembers looking up Firestone Walker's Dark and Stormy on Untappd after deciding it was the worst beer he'd ever had, and finding a review that blamed LA drinkers for not liking it.
Shots for BurgersGreg traded friends free burgers for two shots at the McDonald's drive-through back in the day. Flex remembers a scavenger hunt where his friends ran a red light at midnight for points, right in front of the only cop on duty, and talked their way out of it.
Craft Beer NewsMichelob Ultra, Busch Light and Michelob Ultra Zero made up 35% of Anheuser-Busch's volume last month. Goose Island is putting Bourbon County Brand Stout in four-packs of 10-ounce bottles. California is dragging down national spirits numbers, with volumes down 9% compared to 3% nationally. A Pennsylvania man is arrested on what's at least his 11th DUI. And a Florida mail carrier drank vodka at a house party on her route during her break, then blew a .10.
Beers We're Drinking
Flex: Equilibrium Brewery Mmm...osaFlex is drinking Mmm...osa from Equilibrium Brewery, a 4.8% American pale ale conditioned on fresh orange zest that doesn't taste much like a mimosa. He'd rather have a Modelo Oro, and he's glad he only bought one can.
Greg: WeldWerks Brewing and Barrel Theory Werking TheoryGreg is drinking Werking Theory, an 8.4% double hazy IPA collab from WeldWerks Brewing and Barrel Theory Beer Company with sugary mango, orange and a citrus pith finish. He says it deserves its 4.23 rating.
