A new episode of the Craft Beer Republic podcast is out, and Greg and Flex are back talking about hazy IPAs, weird beer finds, and the occasional gamble that comes with buying random craft beer off the shelf.

Episode “Beer Rummage Sale” starts with Greg opening Electric Limbs Hazy IPA from Beachwood Brewing, a 6.7% hazy IPA brewed with Mosaic and Citra hops. What should have been a safe craft beer pick quickly turns into a conversation about strange carbonation, missing aroma, and the risk every craft beer fan takes when grabbing a beer that seemed like a good idea at the store.


From there the conversation moves into a familiar craft beer experience: the unofficial beer rummage sale. Every bottle shop or brewery seems to have one. A table of discounted craft beer, experimental releases, or mystery cans that suddenly cost half what they normally do. Sometimes it is a hidden gem. Sometimes it explains exactly why it ended up there.


Greg and Flex talk about the gamble of buying discount craft beer, the temptation of a $10 craft beer that used to be $18, and the occasional weird beer you end up trying just because it was sitting on the clearance shelf.


The episode also includes stories about exploring different beer scenes while traveling, including a memory of wandering around Seattle with a growler while hunting for the next drink near the stadium district.


Along the way the show touches on several stories affecting the craft beer industry and alcohol laws, including a proposal to tax alcohol based on ABV instead of beverage category, a Brewers Association financial update, and a couple headlines that prove alcohol and decision making do not always mix.


For fans of craft beer podcasts, hazy IPA reviews, brewery stories, and beer industry news, the latest episode of Craft Beer Republic is another easygoing conversation about craft beer culture and the random situations that come with it.
