Click the clacker.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
I don't know what is the video going.

That's on you, dude.
Speaker 2 (00:58):

Oh, brian's up, I did.
It should be cranking.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Minute 45.
There we go, okay, so now youget to click the clapper.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Click the clapper.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Click the clapper with the clack of the lock Boom.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
That really was pretty unprofessional.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I'm kind of intrigued by the juice box.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Research on the fly.
So we're going to get a wholeheck of a lot of stuff done.
This will be researched bycommittee.
You want to cure it?
Qr code yeah, See if that'llget you something.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Let's see.
Oh, it might just be theirInsta.
I'll make sure we're recording.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, it's just their Instagram.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Well, we had more information off Instagram the
last couple of years than we didoff of their website.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
This was like a last minute audible, don't mind me,
this was the one.
Do we have enough time beforetwo people's wives start going?
Where are you?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, so this is a pulpy.
Literally just the name of thebeer is pulpy, from Kettlehead
Brewing and any IPA instead ofan easy set of an easy, I heard
that as an.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
any IPA like any IPA, like a, and why IPA?
Yep.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I'm a new Hampshire.
Should we start calling him aNEPA?
It's a NEPA beer.
It'd be a little too close to alittle too close to a NEPA baby
.
Yeah, let's not do that, okay.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Let's not do that at all.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Meet pulpy.
He loves juicy IPAs.
This one happens to be hisfavorite triple dry hop with
combination of mosaic, citra andelderado hops.
And no, there is no pulp inthis beer.
Drink fresh and enjoy cold.
So is it a hazy or juicy IPA,if he loves juicy IPA and then
(03:05):
named him after him?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh, dude, kettlehead, I think there's additional
variations of there are manypulpes, yes, so when I type in
pulpy into on tap, there aremany pulpes, but this one is
mine.
It is the second pulpy, andthen there are many, so there is
pulpy.
These are all from justKettlehead.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Oh, that's juicy.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Wicked pulpy, uncle pulpy, cousin pulpy.
Pulpy's family reunion.
Little pulpy, oh yeah, that'sjuicy and that might be it of
the pulpes that I see.
Oh, mrs pulpy, yeah, so theygot a few pulpes.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
All right, and this is not a straight up IPA.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But you said that already.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
We all you weren't in here yet we were talking about
this is getting to.
Like Chad said, we did a no hop, not no hop low.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I mean I love hop less hoppy, less hoppy January
because we're generates and hadto drink during dry January.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
And then I said well, we did a whole hopped IPA
Technically.
Um, actually we have had somehops, but this is not a
traditional IPA.
This is, that is a juicy IPA.
This is fat, this is is thatnot traditional now?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
No idea, like no idea .
I know it's a 7%, so that's,it's in the ballpark.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
So this is more kind of yellow.
Yes, that are expected.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Um, especially since there's an orange juice box on
the camera.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
So just talking about like the, just the variations
of it and the different stylesof where you look at, um, even
within that hazy and New EnglandIPA style, there can still be
some large variations of things.
Large but like, definitely inthis kind of more yellowy, it's
(05:14):
still very eh, kind of idiots.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
If you told me this was a pale ale or a heff, I
might believe you.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
On visuals alone.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
The heff I could get behind that.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
It's a little light, maybe for a heff.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, I'd be hard to say, but does that smell like a?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
heff, that is a juicy .
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Yeah, once you get it up to the nose, the illusion's
over.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Like we made jokes about it.
But my son smells my beers.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Is this juicy?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Even he is going to smell this one and be like do
you have orange juice?
What kind of juice do you havein there?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
All sorts of citrus.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What a good bite with a swig Even in the aroma.
You're getting like some likemaybe some pineapple, some like
fruit, fruit.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Guava.
I believe guava was on theuntapped review.
Whoops, well, it's my house, dowhatever.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
There we go, yeah, the Road tip at home.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
if you ever spill on your beer at the car, just kind
of smooch it around your coaster, keep it off the bar top.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
He spilled.
That was his pour, not my pour.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's like the guy went, did his cult plunge at
Bass Pro Trinket.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
There's a little shrinkage.
I unfortunately saw that video.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
No idea what you're talking about, so I got real
excited because only we're athalf of it.
We were doing research on thefly for this one.
This is an unexpected podcastfor me today.
Minimum order of three fourpacks for any online order to be
eligible for free shipping.
Say that one more time, wow.
Minimum order of three, fourpacks for any online order to be
(07:11):
eligible for free shipping.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
So you buy 12 beers, the shipping is free is what
you're telling me.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
New Hampshire residents only.
I saw that doing the flyresearch and I was like, oh,
what we just talked about thecost of shipping.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Like 500 people live in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Dude, I am not.
I'm not getting on that we'renot getting another.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Tulsa.
There are probably more peopleliving in Tulsa than New
Hampshire.
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Absolutely not.
Thank you for doing theresearch.
I'm going to say no, this oneup.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah, you do that, I'm going to.
No, there's entirely morepeople living in New Hampshire,
but content.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, oh God, there's also a kettlehead popcorn.
I really hope it's run by thesame people 1.4 million.
It's followed by the burgers.
I hope it's out of Denver,never mind, okay, wait, do you
say that one more time?
It's only 1.4.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
It's not a big state.
No, I knew that, but that'slike 400,000 in.
It's actually not that far offIf you have 420,000 people in
Tulsa and you got just under onepoint.
Do you remember that, or didyou?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
look at it, I just looked at it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
So you got 420,000 in Tulsa and 1.38 in New Hampshire
.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
How many Tulsa's?
Speaker 2 (08:31):
do they have in New Hampshire?
What's the Tulsa Metropopulation?
No.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I'm meaning like breweries.
How many Tulsa's are in New?
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Hampshire?
No idea, we've got 10 Tulsa'sfor 400.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I thought we went, that it had to be more.
I have always said more.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I think we are at a 10 to 1 ratio right now on our
current Tulsa.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
We haven't revised.
I think it's 10 to 1, but we'rewrong of Tulsa's.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
There's probably 25.
In New Hampshire I would say atleast.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It's at least 2.5 Tulsa's, I think, at least.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
It's dense state.
Fill the void.
I'm going to look it up.
Fill the void.
Anyways, this is a tasty beerPulpies.
Fill them up.
You guys are the ones that quitIPAs.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
You just don't drink them outside of here and hockey
games.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
I drink water outside of here.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
No, this is definitely filling a hop void
that we've been missing Overthis last month.
Right, heavy air quotes.
Beyond heavy, I'm going to theother, new Hampshire.
We are severely wrong.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Higher, low, shocking .
Yeah, that's not actuallysurprising.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Here.
I am shocked.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
New Hampshire currently ranks 8th in the
country for craft breweries percapita.
Nobody lives there With 90breweries per capita.
Like yeah, as of 2018, therewas 86.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Okay, so they're still growing Dude that is
impressive.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I thought you were a little low, but I wouldn't have
guessed almost A third.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
A car.
Bad yeah, I'm sorry yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, this is Brews in New Hampshire.
From the visit new Hampshiredot gov.
It did an H and it says withover 90 breweries among our
seven regions and there is awhole page on all of the
breweries.
Seven regions, because in NewHampshire, like, probably like
(10:54):
the two small to be calledcounties.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
I don't dude.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Listen, somebody's got to pick a fight with another
me and Tulsa are already in afeud.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I'm not doing it again.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
It's been a cold war, us and Tulsa.
We haven't talked about some ofit.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
No, forget whether I was listening to a podcast or
somebody was talking about likeit must have been a podcast,
because I don't think I couldhave refrained myself if someone
was in person talking about,like, tulsa breweries.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
And I didn't say something.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I just don't know.
But it actually goes back toprobably the distribution stuff
of like how there's been a smallamount of prairie brewing in
our area, but not like honestlythat much.
It's just the little bits thatkind of come through for the
craft distributors of stuff.
This is really tasty.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's pretty good, beyond the taste.
You gonna feel it tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Aye, I think it's early enough.
The sun hasn't gone down yet.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Minutes away.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, don't mind, we got a little bit.
We're on the upswing.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yeah, yeah, we're swinging in the right direction.
We're gaining hours, we'regaining hours.
Somebody said like in less than30 days, the sun will be going
down to 7pm and I was like, oh,Whoa really, it's like 7 o'clock
.
It swings back quick Wow.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I'm here for that one .
Ooh, also Loaded questionbrewing out of New Hampshire
Okay, it's just a fun name.
When I looked up Kettleheadnumber one, we talked about like
okay, we're gonna drink thispulpy from Kettlehead and I was
like sweet Montana brewery.
(12:39):
Nope, nope, that is KettleHouse.
Didn't take much research tofigure that out.
Is this it is probably for youguys, it is likely for me the
first New Hampshire beer?
Yes, also, I just saw this.
(13:02):
This is just fortuitous, Ithink, is the right word
Happenstance.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Depends on where it's the service, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Yeah, what shirt you wearing today.
Oh, there you go.
Speaker 3 (13:15):

two into it together, I know,like New Hampshire winner right
there Winner winner lobsterdinner.
Martin Truex senior.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Yeah, nascar baby.
I honestly like I've drank alot from different places, but
like I don't know if I've everhad a New Hampshire beer.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
No, I thought that's what you were gonna ask me and
I'm like bro.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Well, that's why I started to do that and I was
like there's no way, If Ihaven't, you haven't.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Well, let me check my .
Don't even Untap it, just ithurts, it hurts.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
I only know where beers come from because of this
podcast, because I have to Dothe research.
What is the company about thisbeer from, instead of just being
a normal beer connoisseur andjust going?
This looks good.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
So you're not a nerd like me.
That is like I still am angryabout the app that I used to
have.
That doesn't tell me nowwhether it's Kraft or corporate.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
No, I'm the nerd that has to plan on these episodes
at a time.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
This is independent Kraft on the On the.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Oh, yes, and I would have assumed, like I'm just
saying.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I wouldn't allow anyone without the independent
Kraft logo to come on thisepisode.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Bro, you guys both have macro beers sitting in
front of you.
Speaker 1 (14:33):

Speaker 3 (14:36):
Yeah, it's not macro here it's Juman.
It's not macro here, Don't givemuch more internationally bro.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
That's the joke.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Yeah, did you actually end up drinking
Bitburger when you were?
Speaker 2 (14:52):
over there, not even close, never saw it.
Speaker 3 (14:57):

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Based off my experience.
Yes, we will see On round dry.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
That's a.
Are you going to switch back todoing German Duolingo so you

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Oh, I still do it.
I still do a lesson.
I just I have to get the pointso I can be at the top of my
league, because it's acompetition now that's the thing
that I was getting okay.
So I was doing the German, Ithought I was doing good, but I
was getting dusted Like peoplewere beating me in first place,
Like how do you get that manypoints?
And it's like, oh, you sons ofbitches are doing other

languages.
Oh, really, so on it.
Yeah.
Now it's oh, I'm going to minmax with you nerds.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
It's on now, but I I have not been able to quite
explain to my wife that, like,if you want me to do something
that, like I am not naturallyinclined to do, I have to win.
I think it's some kind of game.
I have to win and I'm going tolike yes, do that Like and it's.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
My wife has other incentives, but I don't need
points, I just need to score.
Speaker 2 (16:27):

Oh God Nice.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Oh, anyways, popey, Sorry, popey.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I'm going to take the top off on this.
Yeah, that's what she said.
That's what people want Genuinecontent.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
This has gone off the rails more than I think we made
it.
What A year.
A year and some change beforeit has completely gone off the
rails.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
They like us.
Now they got to keep us.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Oh God, oh okay so it's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Yeah, it's very good.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I got so excited when , when I saw the ship for free.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Oh yeah, but by pace, we'll ship you for free.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
You had me, I got stuckered me into it as well,
because I didn't read the factthat it was New Hampshire
residents only until we startedrecording.
I did like the last minuteresearch in between episodes and
I'm like, oh, I'm saving this.
Yeah, put a pin in it.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And then like and because, like, yeah, like to buy
three, four packs like I'll putin, we can write, we can figure
that out.
Yeah, I mean, it makes a lot ofsense.
It's probably really cheap toship within New Hampshire, like,
just.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
They send it on portion.
Nobody lives there.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
No, it's what.
What honestly was?
I can Google it.
I was going to ask you guys,like you guys know what's the
square.
It's a tiny estate, squaremileage of New.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Hampshire Less than the city of Seattle.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Why did we keep doing this?
Why, why, why, figure it out?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Because we saw I have a backup here.
So yeah, this letter.
Right, do the library search, Idon't care, you're looking up.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I'm looking up to Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
I'll look up King County Square.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
We got the Seattle.
Oh, now you're going to.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
King.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
County.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Seattle was unrealistic.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
You made a claim, sir .
It was unrealistic.
I understand that Total area,yes, of 9,304 square miles.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Is New Hampshire 9,000.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But okay.
So I want you to hear this inoh, it's because of the water.
You can't count the water Ifit's in the state.
Oh, Because that's what it isTotal area.
It says the total area of thestate is 9,304 square miles,
comprising 9,027 square miles ofland and 277 square miles.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
No, it still smokes.
2100 square miles for KingCounty.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Bro, you thought, it was Seattle.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
It's five times the size of but.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
But people wise, it's only a little more than double.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Seattle, I think is around 600,000.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Yeah, six or seven.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I was gonna say 800, but Seattle Metro, yeah, you
could fit all of New Hampshirecomfortably in Seattle.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, it's just Seattle Metro 737.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Huh 737.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Is Seattle.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Seattle.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Yeah, so a little over double yeah, which then,
when you think about it, I meanyou're talking about an entire
state, so for sure they're inper capita, because we're
looking at like 60 plus ishbreweries in Seattle alone, yes,
but for being an entire stateper capita man, I'm shocked
they're only eighth.
Yeah, like that's actually kindof surprising to think about it
(20:25):
.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Um, but if I lived in New Hampshire I would have to
drink a lot.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
What's wrong with New ?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Hampshire.
You don't know enough about NewHampshire to talk shit on.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
New.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Hampshire, do you.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yeah, new Hampshire probably got bears in your yard.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
What's wrong with that?
You might have a bear in youryard, have you?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
been chased by a bear into a frozen lake before.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
A bear is a murder machine Dude you haven't been
chased by a bear into a lake.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Yes, I have.
I'm trying to think I've beenchased by a bear into a frozen
lake before.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
This is a silly thing , but I'm wondering if you're
when we get big enough to get onJoe Rogan.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
That's my story to Joe Rogan.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
He didn't go, I'm good I'll skip that episode.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Oh, no way.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, 100%.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Oh, bro, you wouldn't listen to my episode with Joe
Rogan.
Nope, after we worked out andlike, hopped in the cold plunge
and did the sauna, nope, oh,there's my heart, bro, I'll be
there with you.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
It's cool.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Brian doesn't like Austin.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Are they the other shilling?
Didn't we just talk aboutshilling?
What On a few?
One of the top.
Oh, it was one of the top 20 or30 of the breweries right, the
breweries liked by bar 10 yearsor whatever.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yes, and it was shilling, wasn't it Shilling
cider?
It was one of them.
No, it wasn't shilling cider.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Because we have shilling cider here and shilling
beer company is from NewHampshire.
There you go, because I wastrying to think if there's
another New Hampshire brewery.
That just came to mind andhonestly there wasn't, so that
is just where I ended up with.
I was looking up in the mostfamous quote-unquote.
(22:11):
So Popey's great, I Would yousay, 7%.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, it's a nice shot of hops after our.
Yeah, but you guys.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Our journey through J-A-N-D Quit hops.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Not by choice.
Yeah, I, you can choose thepower through.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Life tells me otherwise, because that's
literally what I've been tryingto do is power through with
drinking that stuff for the last, however many years.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
We also live in an area where hops is just One.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
that's part of it too .
Speaker 2 (22:49):
That's a flavor you need in beer, like it was like.
I saw it like halfway through.
It was like, yeah, this isgreat, but I needed some extra
hops.
So I had, like that, double IPAmecha hops from Black Raven.
Yeah, I've pulled an.
I snagged a 19.2 IPA from theshelf single section because it
(23:09):
was like I need a little bit ofhops and you're making fun of me
.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I'm a hypocrite.
You're shaking your head.
You're shaking your head no,aggressively as well.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I have water as my backup beer.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I sit there.
I sat.
I sat and bitched about theheadache that hops gave me on a
hockey night when it shouldn'thave, but that's a flavor we are
in our area, are accustomed to.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I went to a brewery and didn't have an IPA.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Ooh, how did that feel.
How did that make you feel,Brian?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
It hurt a little bit.
Yeah, hurt a little bit.
There's a couch over here if wecan lie down and talk about it.
But I had checked our locker,like we talked about, felt
better.
I had a barley wine.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Felt better, there you go Getting after it.
What Five ounces.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Okay, that's it.
It was.
I talked about this last time.
It's a four point somethingbeer sandwich.
I got a four point somethingbeer.
I had a five ounces of barleywine.
I had a four point somethingounce beer.
Percent beer.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So new, so new.
Brian theory has dropped out isthe beer sandwich.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, that's been a good like I will always.
Always is a bit aggressive.
I will frequently Grab a littlebit of your really boozy one
and try to like fit that intoanother, but it's new to the
audience.
Oh, yes, but also it's new tothe fact of like, instead of
sandwiching it, sandwiching itbetween IPAs, literally dropping
(24:45):
like almost two percentagepoints per beer with, like, no
hops at all.
Zero I BUs, zero I BUs, I'mgonna put Pulpy.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yes, it's gonna be hard to get out of here.
If it was free shipping, itwould probably be on its way
next week.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
If you had continued that sentence and there was no,
I was gonna give you the cashout of my pocket, especially a
mix pack.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Oh, in case everybody gets a couple cans, we can try
all the different gramma pulpesanti-pulpes.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
All it took was a minimum of 12.
Like we can easily yeah, We'dhave just made our own thing.
We'd put borders in before we gohome today.
Yeah, we'd probably would haveIs accessible.
I think the problem we'rerunning into is now I'm putting
it into a category of whateverything we drink instead of
(25:48):
just this one independently.
Yeah, if I just think of thisindependently and not trying to
rank it against others, I wouldtry to find a place for it, at
least occasionally.
That it doesn't drink heavy, itdrinks light, even for being
hazy.
It doesn't feel there's nobitterness, it doesn't feel Even
(26:12):
you talked about one of them awhile back of having that
lingering flavor.
It doesn't have that.
So I want it in my rotation.
If I'm just thinking singularlyand locally accessible, I
probably almost always have oneof them, like a four pack to
(26:32):
just cycle through.
Yeah, as like, if I'm justthinking independently and not
categorizing it againsteverything else, I'm going to do
that as like a beer friger forsure.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
That's kind of where I'm at.
Hazies aren't my everyday go-toplay.
They're a good mix up everyonce in a while.
Maybe we got to off air we gotto figure out our rating system.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I think we're going to need to re-thin.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
we're either going to get real big beer fridges at
this point, or we come up withsome sort of a rating system
where we can go, Because we'verun into that a lot where you go
.
This would be great, but Ican't get it.
This would be fantastic if Iwas in the area.
If I saw this in the wild I'dabsolutely grab it, but kind of
reviewing this beer on its own.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Yeah, I didn't think I felt like we had a good system
.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
But now We've had enough beer and we've been doing
this long enough.
Now there needs to be a littlebit of nuance.
That one to five staron-to-vore is great One oh, okay
.
Yeah, because you can rate thebeers one to five on-to-vore.
But we've been on a it's a beerfridge or it's a fridge or it's
(27:50):
an outdoor fridge or it's aholiday beer.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
The Kilsner on Untapped is never getting a
consensus.
4.5 stars, but a barrel agecould.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
I would give this 3.75 bullies.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
See, and maybe we tried to avoid doing that sort
of thing.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
We didn't have a frame of reference.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But maybe we start doing a now out of five.
We were doing the ratingon-to-vore like.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Chad knows, and we all just randomly pick a
different metric.
Brian can beer fridge it.
I'll do a one out of five.
Chad can give it one out of tenstars.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Whatever we're feeling like that day.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
I'm gonna give this who knows?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I mean it's all Dare.
I say it becomes a who's lineis in any way the points don't
matter.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Isn't that what we've been doing the whole time?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Pretty much Basically Cool, I really enjoyed it,
though Personally that's a totalbeer fridge for me.
Okay, yep, even if it waslocality.
It's a flavor I want in myfridge, but I don't need it
(29:06):
every day.
No.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Cool.
Well, our glasses are empty.
Yes, hopefully yours are too.
We'll catch you next time.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
You.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
You.

people, so do not put that on me.
Speaker 3 (00:26):

We're all in the hood just getting turned off.
Finally back on our ship.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
We click back on our bullshithy, we click the clacker
while you're there.
Click the clacker.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
I don't know what is the video going.
I don't know.
That's on you, dude.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Did the producer start the video?
Oh, brian's up, I did.
It should be cranking.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Minute 45.
There we go, okay, so now youget to click the clapper.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Click the clapper.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Click the clapper with the clack of the lock Boom.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
That really was pretty unprofessional.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I'm kind of intrigued by the juice box.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Research on the fly.
So we're going to get a wholeheck of a lot of stuff done.
This will be researched bycommittee.
You want to cure it?
Qr code yeah, See if that'llget you something.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Let's see.
Oh, it might just be theirInsta.
I'll make sure we're recording.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, it's just their Instagram.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Well, we had more information off Instagram the
last couple of years than we didoff of their website.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
This was like a last minute audible, don't mind me,
this was the one.
Do we have enough time beforetwo people's wives start going?
Where are you?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yeah, so this is a pulpy.
Literally just the name of thebeer is pulpy, from Kettlehead
Brewing and any IPA instead ofan easy set of an easy, I heard
that as an.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
any IPA like any IPA, like a, and why IPA?
Yep.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I'm a new Hampshire.
Should we start calling him aNEPA?
It's a NEPA beer.
It'd be a little too close to alittle too close to a NEPA baby
.
Yeah, let's not do that, okay.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Let's not do that at all.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Meet pulpy.
He loves juicy IPAs.
This one happens to be hisfavorite triple dry hop with
combination of mosaic, citra andelderado hops.
And no, there is no pulp inthis beer.
Drink fresh and enjoy cold.
So is it a hazy or juicy IPA,if he loves juicy IPA and then
(03:05):
named him after him?
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh, dude, kettlehead, I think there's additional
variations of there are manypulpes, yes, so when I type in
pulpy into on tap, there aremany pulpes, but this one is
mine.
It is the second pulpy, andthen there are many, so there is
pulpy.
These are all from justKettlehead.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Oh, that's juicy.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Wicked pulpy, uncle pulpy, cousin pulpy.
Pulpy's family reunion.
Little pulpy, oh yeah, that'sjuicy and that might be it of
the pulpes that I see.
Oh, mrs pulpy, yeah, so theygot a few pulpes.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
All right, and this is not a straight up IPA.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But you said that already.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
We all you weren't in here yet we were talking about
this is getting to.
Like Chad said, we did a no hop, not no hop low.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I mean I love hop less hoppy, less hoppy January
because we're generates and hadto drink during dry January.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
And then I said well, we did a whole hopped IPA
Technically.
Um, actually we have had somehops, but this is not a
traditional IPA.
This is, that is a juicy IPA.
This is fat, this is is thatnot traditional now?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
No idea, like no idea .
I know it's a 7%, so that's,it's in the ballpark.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
So this is more kind of yellow.
Yes, that are expected.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Um, especially since there's an orange juice box on
the camera.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
So just talking about like the, just the variations
of it and the different stylesof where you look at, um, even
within that hazy and New EnglandIPA style, there can still be
some large variations of things.
Large but like, definitely inthis kind of more yellowy, it's
(05:14):
still very eh, kind of idiots.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
If you told me this was a pale ale or a heff, I
might believe you.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
On visuals alone.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
The heff I could get behind that.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
It's a little light, maybe for a heff.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, I'd be hard to say, but does that smell like a?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
heff, that is a juicy .
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Yeah, once you get it up to the nose, the illusion's
over.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Like we made jokes about it.
But my son smells my beers.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Is this juicy?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Even he is going to smell this one and be like do
you have orange juice?
What kind of juice do you havein there?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
All sorts of citrus.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What a good bite with a swig Even in the aroma.
You're getting like some likemaybe some pineapple, some like
fruit, fruit.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Guava.
I believe guava was on theuntapped review.
Whoops, well, it's my house, dowhatever.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
There we go, yeah, the Road tip at home.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
if you ever spill on your beer at the car, just kind
of smooch it around your coaster, keep it off the bar top.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
He spilled.
That was his pour, not my pour.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
It's like the guy went, did his cult plunge at
Bass Pro Trinket.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
There's a little shrinkage.
I unfortunately saw that video.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
No idea what you're talking about, so I got real
excited because only we're athalf of it.
We were doing research on thefly for this one.
This is an unexpected podcastfor me today.
Minimum order of three fourpacks for any online order to be
eligible for free shipping.
Say that one more time, wow.
Minimum order of three, fourpacks for any online order to be
(07:11):
eligible for free shipping.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
So you buy 12 beers, the shipping is free is what
you're telling me.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
New Hampshire residents only.
I saw that doing the flyresearch and I was like, oh,
what we just talked about thecost of shipping.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Like 500 people live in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Dude, I am not.
I'm not getting on that we'renot getting another.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Tulsa.
There are probably more peopleliving in Tulsa than New
Hampshire.
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Absolutely not.
Thank you for doing theresearch.
I'm going to say no, this oneup.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah, you do that, I'm going to.
No, there's entirely morepeople living in New Hampshire,
but content.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, oh God, there's also a kettlehead popcorn.
I really hope it's run by thesame people 1.4 million.
It's followed by the burgers.
I hope it's out of Denver,never mind, okay, wait, do you
say that one more time?
It's only 1.4.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
It's not a big state.
No, I knew that, but that'slike 400,000 in.
It's actually not that far offIf you have 420,000 people in
Tulsa and you got just under onepoint.
Do you remember that, or didyou?
Speaker 1 (08:21):
look at it, I just looked at it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
So you got 420,000 in Tulsa and 1.38 in New Hampshire
.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
How many Tulsa's?
Speaker 2 (08:31):
do they have in New Hampshire?
What's the Tulsa Metropopulation?
No.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I'm meaning like breweries.
How many Tulsa's are in New?
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Hampshire?
No idea, we've got 10 Tulsa'sfor 400.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I thought we went, that it had to be more.
I have always said more.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I think we are at a 10 to 1 ratio right now on our
current Tulsa.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
We haven't revised.
I think it's 10 to 1, but we'rewrong of Tulsa's.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
There's probably 25.
In New Hampshire I would say atleast.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
It's at least 2.5 Tulsa's, I think, at least.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
It's dense state.
Fill the void.
I'm going to look it up.
Fill the void.
Anyways, this is a tasty beerPulpies.
Fill them up.
You guys are the ones that quitIPAs.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
You just don't drink them outside of here and hockey
games.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
I drink water outside of here.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
No, this is definitely filling a hop void
that we've been missing Overthis last month.
Right, heavy air quotes.
Beyond heavy, I'm going to theother, new Hampshire.
We are severely wrong.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Higher, low, shocking .
Yeah, that's not actuallysurprising.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Here.
I am shocked.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
New Hampshire currently ranks 8th in the
country for craft breweries percapita.
Nobody lives there With 90breweries per capita.
Like yeah, as of 2018, therewas 86.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Okay, so they're still growing Dude that is
impressive.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I thought you were a little low, but I wouldn't have
guessed almost A third.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
A car.
Bad yeah, I'm sorry yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, this is Brews in New Hampshire.
From the visit new Hampshiredot gov.
It did an H and it says withover 90 breweries among our
seven regions and there is awhole page on all of the
breweries.
Seven regions, because in NewHampshire, like, probably like
(10:54):
the two small to be calledcounties.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
I don't dude.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Listen, somebody's got to pick a fight with another
me and Tulsa are already in afeud.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I'm not doing it again.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
It's been a cold war, us and Tulsa.
We haven't talked about some ofit.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
No, forget whether I was listening to a podcast or
somebody was talking about likeit must have been a podcast,
because I don't think I couldhave refrained myself if someone
was in person talking about,like, tulsa breweries.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
And I didn't say something.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I just don't know.
But it actually goes back toprobably the distribution stuff
of like how there's been a smallamount of prairie brewing in
our area, but not like honestlythat much.
It's just the little bits thatkind of come through for the
craft distributors of stuff.
This is really tasty.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's pretty good, beyond the taste.
You gonna feel it tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Aye, I think it's early enough.
The sun hasn't gone down yet.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Minutes away.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Yeah, don't mind, we got a little bit.
We're on the upswing.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Yeah, yeah, we're swinging in the right direction.
We're gaining hours, we'regaining hours.
Somebody said like in less than30 days, the sun will be going
down to 7pm and I was like, oh,Whoa really, it's like 7 o'clock
.
It swings back quick Wow.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I'm here for that one .
Ooh, also Loaded questionbrewing out of New Hampshire
Okay, it's just a fun name.
When I looked up Kettleheadnumber one, we talked about like
okay, we're gonna drink thispulpy from Kettlehead and I was
like sweet Montana brewery.
(12:39):
Nope, nope, that is KettleHouse.
Didn't take much research tofigure that out.
Is this it is probably for youguys, it is likely for me the
first New Hampshire beer?
Yes, also, I just saw this.
(13:02):
This is just fortuitous, Ithink, is the right word
Happenstance.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Depends on where it's the service, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Yeah, what shirt you wearing today.
Oh, there you go.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
MTJ.
Oh, I had to look down becauseit's not my shirt.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
But like I had to look at it because I did not put
two into it together, I know,like New Hampshire winner right
there Winner winner lobsterdinner.
Martin Truex senior.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Yeah, nascar baby.
I honestly like I've drank alot from different places, but
like I don't know if I've everhad a New Hampshire beer.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
No, I thought that's what you were gonna ask me and
I'm like bro.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Well, that's why I started to do that and I was
like there's no way, If Ihaven't, you haven't.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Well, let me check my .
Don't even Untap it, just ithurts, it hurts.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
I only know where beers come from because of this
podcast, because I have to Dothe research.
What is the company about thisbeer from, instead of just being
a normal beer connoisseur andjust going?
This looks good.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
So you're not a nerd like me.
That is like I still am angryabout the app that I used to
have.
That doesn't tell me nowwhether it's Kraft or corporate.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
No, I'm the nerd that has to plan on these episodes
at a time.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
This is independent Kraft on the On the.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Oh, yes, and I would have assumed, like I'm just
saying.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I wouldn't allow anyone without the independent
Kraft logo to come on thisepisode.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Bro, you guys both have macro beers sitting in
front of you.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
I got so excited when , when I saw the ship for free.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Oh yeah, but by pace, we'll ship you for free.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
You had me, I got stuckered me into it as well,
because I didn't read the factthat it was New Hampshire
residents only until we startedrecording.
I did like the last minuteresearch in between episodes and
I'm like, oh, I'm saving this.
Yeah, put a pin in it.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And then like and because, like, yeah, like to buy
three, four packs like I'll putin, we can write, we can figure
that out.
Yeah, I mean, it makes a lot ofsense.
It's probably really cheap toship within New Hampshire, like,
just.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
They send it on portion.
Nobody lives there.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
No, it's what.
What honestly was?
I can Google it.
I was going to ask you guys,like you guys know what's the
square.
It's a tiny estate, squaremileage of New.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Hampshire Less than the city of Seattle.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Why did we keep doing this?
Why, why, why, figure it out?
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Because we saw I have a backup here.
So yeah, this letter.
Right, do the library search, Idon't care, you're looking up.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I'm looking up to Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
I'll look up King County Square.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
We got the Seattle.
Oh, now you're going to.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
King.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
County.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Seattle was unrealistic.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
You made a claim, sir .
It was unrealistic.
I understand that Total area,yes, of 9,304 square miles.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Is New Hampshire 9,000.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But okay.
So I want you to hear this inoh, it's because of the water.
You can't count the water Ifit's in the state.
Oh, Because that's what it isTotal area.
It says the total area of thestate is 9,304 square miles,
comprising 9,027 square miles ofland and 277 square miles.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
No, it still smokes.
2100 square miles for KingCounty.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Bro, you thought, it was Seattle.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
It's five times the size of but.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
But people wise, it's only a little more than double.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Seattle, I think is around 600,000.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Yeah, six or seven.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I was gonna say 800, but Seattle Metro, yeah, you
could fit all of New Hampshirecomfortably in Seattle.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, it's just Seattle Metro 737.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Huh 737.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Is Seattle.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Seattle.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Yeah, so a little over double yeah, which then,
when you think about it, I meanyou're talking about an entire
state, so for sure they're inper capita, because we're
looking at like 60 plus ishbreweries in Seattle alone, yes,
but for being an entire stateper capita man, I'm shocked
they're only eighth.
Yeah, like that's actually kindof surprising to think about it
(20:25):
.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Um, but if I lived in New Hampshire I would have to
drink a lot.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
What's wrong with New ?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Hampshire.
You don't know enough about NewHampshire to talk shit on.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
New.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Hampshire, do you.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yeah, new Hampshire probably got bears in your yard.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
What's wrong with that?
You might have a bear in youryard, have you?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
been chased by a bear into a frozen lake before.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
A bear is a murder machine Dude you haven't been
chased by a bear into a lake.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Yes, I have.
I'm trying to think I've beenchased by a bear into a frozen
lake before.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
This is a silly thing , but I'm wondering if you're
when we get big enough to get onJoe Rogan.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
That's my story to Joe Rogan.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
He didn't go, I'm good I'll skip that episode.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Oh, no way.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, 100%.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Oh, bro, you wouldn't listen to my episode with Joe
Rogan.
Nope, after we worked out andlike, hopped in the cold plunge
and did the sauna, nope, oh,there's my heart, bro, I'll be
there with you.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
It's cool.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Brian doesn't like Austin.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Are they the other shilling?
Didn't we just talk aboutshilling?
What On a few?
One of the top.
Oh, it was one of the top 20 or30 of the breweries right, the
breweries liked by bar 10 yearsor whatever.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yes, and it was shilling, wasn't it Shilling
cider?
It was one of them.
No, it wasn't shilling cider.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Because we have shilling cider here and shilling
beer company is from NewHampshire.
There you go, because I wastrying to think if there's
another New Hampshire brewery.
That just came to mind andhonestly there wasn't, so that
is just where I ended up with.
I was looking up in the mostfamous quote-unquote.
(22:11):
So Popey's great, I Would yousay, 7%.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, it's a nice shot of hops after our.
Yeah, but you guys.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Our journey through J-A-N-D Quit hops.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Not by choice.
Yeah, I, you can choose thepower through.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Life tells me otherwise, because that's
literally what I've been tryingto do is power through with
drinking that stuff for the last, however many years.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
We also live in an area where hops is just One.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
that's part of it too .
Speaker 2 (22:49):
That's a flavor you need in beer, like it was like.
I saw it like halfway through.
It was like, yeah, this isgreat, but I needed some extra
hops.
So I had, like that, double IPAmecha hops from Black Raven.
Yeah, I've pulled an.
I snagged a 19.2 IPA from theshelf single section because it
(23:09):
was like I need a little bit ofhops and you're making fun of me
.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I'm a hypocrite.
You're shaking your head.
You're shaking your head no,aggressively as well.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
I have water as my backup beer.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I sit there.
I sat.
I sat and bitched about theheadache that hops gave me on a
hockey night when it shouldn'thave, but that's a flavor we are
in our area, are accustomed to.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I went to a brewery and didn't have an IPA.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Ooh, how did that feel.
How did that make you feel,Brian?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
It hurt a little bit.
Yeah, hurt a little bit.
There's a couch over here if wecan lie down and talk about it.
But I had checked our locker,like we talked about, felt
better.
I had a barley wine.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Felt better, there you go Getting after it.
What Five ounces.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Okay, that's it.
It was.
I talked about this last time.
It's a four point somethingbeer sandwich.
I got a four point somethingbeer.
I had a five ounces of barleywine.
I had a four point somethingounce beer.
Percent beer.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So new, so new.
Brian theory has dropped out isthe beer sandwich.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, that's been a good like I will always.
Always is a bit aggressive.
I will frequently Grab a littlebit of your really boozy one
and try to like fit that intoanother, but it's new to the
audience.
Oh, yes, but also it's new tothe fact of like, instead of
sandwiching it, sandwiching itbetween IPAs, literally dropping
(24:45):
like almost two percentagepoints per beer with, like, no
hops at all.
Zero I BUs, zero I BUs, I'mgonna put Pulpy.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yes, it's gonna be hard to get out of here.
If it was free shipping, itwould probably be on its way
next week.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
If you had continued that sentence and there was no,
I was gonna give you the cashout of my pocket, especially a
mix pack.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Oh, in case everybody gets a couple cans, we can try
all the different gramma pulpesanti-pulpes.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
All it took was a minimum of 12.
Like we can easily yeah, We'dhave just made our own thing.
We'd put borders in before we gohome today.
Yeah, we'd probably would haveIs accessible.
I think the problem we'rerunning into is now I'm putting
it into a category of whateverything we drink instead of
(25:48):
just this one independently.
Yeah, if I just think of thisindependently and not trying to
rank it against others, I wouldtry to find a place for it, at
least occasionally.
That it doesn't drink heavy, itdrinks light, even for being
hazy.
It doesn't feel there's nobitterness, it doesn't feel Even
(26:12):
you talked about one of them awhile back of having that
lingering flavor.
It doesn't have that.
So I want it in my rotation.
If I'm just thinking singularlyand locally accessible, I
probably almost always have oneof them, like a four pack to
(26:32):
just cycle through.
Yeah, as like, if I'm justthinking independently and not
categorizing it againsteverything else, I'm going to do
that as like a beer friger forsure.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
That's kind of where I'm at.
Hazies aren't my everyday go-toplay.
They're a good mix up everyonce in a while.
Maybe we got to off air we gotto figure out our rating system.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I think we're going to need to re-thin.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
we're either going to get real big beer fridges at
this point, or we come up withsome sort of a rating system
where we can go, Because we'verun into that a lot where you go
.
This would be great, but Ican't get it.
This would be fantastic if Iwas in the area.
If I saw this in the wild I'dabsolutely grab it, but kind of
reviewing this beer on its own.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Yeah, I didn't think I felt like we had a good system
.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
But now We've had enough beer and we've been doing
this long enough.
Now there needs to be a littlebit of nuance.
That one to five staron-to-vore is great One oh, okay
.
Yeah, because you can rate thebeers one to five on-to-vore.
But we've been on a it's a beerfridge or it's a fridge or it's
(27:50):
an outdoor fridge or it's aholiday beer.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
The Kilsner on Untapped is never getting a
consensus.
4.5 stars, but a barrel agecould.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
I would give this 3.75 bullies.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
See, and maybe we tried to avoid doing that sort
of thing.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
We didn't have a frame of reference.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But maybe we start doing a now out of five.
We were doing the ratingon-to-vore like.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Chad knows, and we all just randomly pick a
different metric.
Brian can beer fridge it.
I'll do a one out of five.
Chad can give it one out of tenstars.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Whatever we're feeling like that day.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
I'm gonna give this who knows?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I mean it's all Dare.
I say it becomes a who's lineis in any way the points don't
matter.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Isn't that what we've been doing the whole time?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Pretty much Basically Cool, I really enjoyed it,
though Personally that's a totalbeer fridge for me.
Okay, yep, even if it waslocality.
It's a flavor I want in myfridge, but I don't need it
(29:06):
every day.
No.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Cool.
Well, our glasses are empty.
Yes, hopefully yours are too.
We'll catch you next time.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
You.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
You.
