New Episode: Seltzers, Saisons, and Shenanigans

Welcome in, thirsty traveler! A brand new batch of Craft Beer Republic is fresh on tap, and this one’s got everything from backyard birthday beers to the boldest icing plot you’ve ever heard.

In this episode, Greg and Shannon trade Flex’s barbell jokes for party stories. They dive into Big Nick’s birthday bash — tacos, cold drinks, and a whole lot of questionable cornhole. Greg admits to a full day of seltzers under the blazing sun, while Shannon laughs her way through the chaos.

Things get even better when Erica and the Beer Babes call in from their own release party, leaving a voicemail filled with shenanigans, Hot Cheetos, and the perfect plan to ice an entire group at once. From there, the conversation spirals into glitter bans, prank plotting, and all the craft beer side tangents you’d expect from a true CBR hangout.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Craft Beer Republic without Booze News:

• Illinois still bans happy hour, because fun is apparently dangerous

• Gallup says fewer Americans are drinking than ever before

• Beer can lids now taxed like bulldozers (yes, really)

• Calorie counts could soon land on your favorite beer labels

• The Craft Beer Hall of Fame names its first legendary brews

• Campbell’s and PBR team up for beer soup (exclusively at Walmart)

• Coors Banquet and Wrangler roll out a denim line fit for Yellowstone

  
  

Along the way, Greg and Shannon crack open Bottle Logic Brewing’s Stellar Mass Hazy IPA, with its fruity nose, mystery citrus vibes, and just enough hot burn to spark a debate.

Whether you’re into craft beer reviews, seltzer confessions, Booze News headlines, or just the banter that makes this podcast feel like a brewery hangout, this episode hits it all.
