The latest episode of Craft Beer Republic, Flex Is the Captain Now, is officially on tap! With Greg sidelined by a rough week and some heavy meds, Flex takes over hosting duties — and Erica jumps in to help keep things somewhat on track. Spoiler: “on track” doesn’t last long.

This week’s craft beer podcast episode has everything from wild stories to cold beers and questionable decisions. Erica recaps her Beer Babes family weekend, where a casual hangout turned into a full-blown Smirnoff Ice ambush. Flex brings the stats with a look at how much baseball fans drink during the MLB postseason, while Greg mostly focuses on surviving and sipping his Cherry Coke Zero.

Beer Reviews in This Episode

Erica’s drinking Leezard King from Mindscape Fermentations, a hazy IPA with peach and citrus notes from a woman-owned brewery.Flex cracks open Land Before Time from BlackStack Brewing and Toppling Goliath, a juicy hazy IPA with passionfruit and orange.

If you’re hunting for new craft beers to try, both of these are worthy additions to your fridge.
