theunfilteredgentl
In Batch 466 of Craft Beer Republic, Greg and Flex feel old: kids aren't opening bar tabs anymore, and Flex watches the neighbor kids play the same drinking game he played 15 years ago. Greg survives a dry graduation party with seltzers and a THC drink mixer, Flex's opinion of a honey double IPA from Trillium changes mid-show, and Psycho Bear calls in from a bike tour of Marin breweries.
Open a Tab, You AnimalsYoung drinkers are paying one drink at a time instead of opening tabs, which slows down bartenders and costs bars more in credit card fees. Greg and Flex's message to the kids: open a tab.
Beer Die Lives OnFlex felt like a grandpa watching his neighbor's college-age son set up a table for beer die, a game Flex played 15 years ago and thought nobody else knew. He explains the rules, and Greg wants him to come teach it at Nick's next birthday party.
Surviving a Dry Graduation PartyGreg tries a THC social tonic and a flavorless THC drink mixer from a company called Herbal Oasis, and gives both an honest thumbs up. That came in handy at a family graduation party with no alcohol, where Greg and an older cousin pooled their seltzers in one ice chest. Greg also shares his new move: High Noon cut one to one with champagne.
Psycho Bear's Bike Tour VoicemailPsycho Bear calls in from a road bike tour of Marin County with stops at Adobe Creek, Beer Craft Bottle Shop and Indian Valley Brewing, challenges Flex to a game of HORSE or darts, and invites Greg to meet up at Tarantula Hill Brewing.
Craft Beer NewsTilray closes the Redhook Brewlab in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood. Ska Brewing in Durango is sold to two families with distribution ties, wiping out the brewery's debt. And a drunk United business class passenger leaves his Denver to London flight before takeoff after being denied a drink.
Beers We're Drinking
Greg: Hop Butcher for the World Galaxy Traveling ScientistGreg is drinking Galaxy Traveling Scientist from Hop Butcher for the World, a 5.75% hazy American pale ale with Galaxy and distilled hop oils that's dank on the nose with lots of citrus on the tongue.
Flex: Trillium Brewing Mosaic Cutting TilesFlex is drinking Mosaic Cutting Tiles from Trillium Brewing, an 8.5% double IPA with raw wildflower honey. After 25 minutes, the candied peach and nectarine finally open up, and he loves the dry finish.
