exciting news from the road that Bill's gonna be sharing.

(01:41):
What that is, I don't know because he wasn't in

stuff going on in the beer world, just like the

gonna go ahead and say it because Bill said it first.
But what are the last show? What did our last
show contained? Bill? It contained premium beer content. That's right,

(02:05):
premium content. And you know if it says premium on
the can, it's crap.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
No.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Actually, last week was a beautiful show. It was awesome.
We had so much fun putting together with the small
stories and turned it into one just big super show.
And well, we're gonna try our damn just again to
put something else together.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
I know, it's like it goes out there and pitches,
you know, eight two thirds innings, striking out thirteen, and
then the next time outing gets up nine runs in
the second inning.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
We're not blowing it. We're not blowing this, James. We're
gonna keep the streak alive. So welcome to the show.
Welcome to what sis Apple Radio. For the next two hours,
Beer Guru himself there in studio s is gonna be
cracking over some beers and leading this ship down the
channel and I'm gonna make sure that we don't crash
into the wall. And Bill well, you know, he's just
gonna be popping tops on beers and.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Goes along for the ride. Whether we crack, we don't
know not.

Speaker 5 (02:54):
He'm absolutely happy to do it.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
He's like, he's like, what is it? Was it Isaac
on the Love Boat Man. He's gonna be boring the
drinks all right. But before we get started, we gotta
think our wonderful sponsors who make it possible for us

And these fine sponsors who make it possible are.

and I mean everywhere, even on podcast platform Chad and
I've never even heard of thanks to our friends of
our cast branding. Welcome to What's on Tap Radio. Let's

(03:34):
crack a beer. This segment brought to the table, brought
to you by the Backyard Girl.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Like I just mentioned the Yeah byg located on the
northwest side of Houston, Texas, been there for one hundred years.
Well no, not quite that one hundred dog years. Yeah,
maybe I don't know about that twenty some years, like
twenty five twenty.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
So we're not gonna show about math, alright.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
That's right. Well you're gonna find out later in the
show why we're not as you about math. But that's
we'll save that for later. That's a tease. Meanwhile, Harbor Light, Bill,
crack open a beer. We're gonna go first. This is
where we bring a beer and James brings a beer
and Bill, why don't you tell everybody what you've been doing? Uh,
real quick and where you went? Or well no, don't
just tell everybody what you did and what we have

(04:17):
all while I was on.

Speaker 5 (04:18):
An assignment for What's on Tap Radio, had a wedding for
a friend of mine down northwest Arkansas. Uh, he lives
down in Rogers.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
And what are we drinking?

Speaker 5 (04:28):
We're drinking the urban Trail. It's a golden ale from
Bike Cracked Brewing. Bike Cracked Brewing out of Bentonville, Arkansas.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Bentonville home of Walmart Walmart.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Yeah, all right, what's official What's on Tap Radio? Fun
fact that week's been brought to you by Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
But what me and my wife had to stop off
at a Walmart down there, which is directly across the
street from their world headquarters. The cleanest the store I've
ever been to in my life.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
The boss is right across the street.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
It's disappointing here, Bill. If I want to just.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Wondering, have they have they ever been a Walmart and Michigan.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
That's exactly what I'm thinking. If it's like the ultimate Walmart,
it's got to be the ultimate Walmarts. It's got to
be the ultimate stereo type of Walmart. Chad shaking his
head on the beer.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
I'm I'm like, it's a golden ail, and it tastes
like a golden I mean there is. It's it's bready.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
It's not outstanding, no classic.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
It's classic. It's just really really drinkable. No off flavors
that I'm picking up. It's it's balanced a little more
on the on the multi side, which is really kind
of what you want. The Golden Ale. It's light bodied,
a very nice beer, five point five percent ABV. And
Bill wants to give a shout out to the YEA
a quick shout out to.

Speaker 5 (05:40):
Brock and John. They're a bike Racked Brewing. Really nice guys.
Great place u uh in that northwest Arkansas. A lot
of people don't know, very very big and mountain biking
down there. So uh, that's what I call it, the
Bike Racked Brewing. A lot of races and stuff come
and go from that place there, and don't forget to
pick up.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Your your mountain bikes from Walmart. Yeah, brought to you
by Bettonville, Arkansas. All right, that's what we brought to
the table. Kick things off, James, I know you're thirsty.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
I am thirsty. I'm gonna put you guys on the spot.
You and you and Bill. What would you say is
probably the most one of the most famous American brood marsins.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Is I'm gonna go, I mean American brewed, American brood
Mars in Boston Beer Company, Sam Adams.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Okay, I was gonna say, Sam Adams, what do you
say that?

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Saying Bill, I would have to say, yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Okay, Well, brought to the table this week that I'm
bringing from Boston Beer Company, Samuel Adams.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
Hey, I like how I like how James gives us
a quiz. It's like, okay, before we can start the show,
we need to test and we need to see what
your knowledge level is so we know kind of how
all look at this. He's got the Boston Logger glass too.
Now october Fest, contrary to what James brought a few
weeks ago, is a logger style beer and he's got
his marsin in there. And let's see, let's see that

(07:06):
palette work.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Here you go, man? Is it? This takes me to
october Fest? Mmmm? That takets like a good decision. That
is the samil Adams october Fest Hearty and smooth at
five point three percent outcoholed by volume. What I'm gonna do,
You're gonna take.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
What you're new is take a beating for not describing
the beer more details.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Well I will, but we're out of time in this segment.
I want to make sure that we give you know
a teaser. What we got on tap this week, but
brought to the table this week was sponsored by our
friends at the Backyard Grill. Chatt and Bill kicked it
off with the.

Speaker 5 (07:36):

Speaker 1 (07:40):
And then I backed him up with the October Fest
Samuel Adams Boston Beer Company Hardy and Smooth at five
point three percent out called by volume, which I will
let breathe and then come back from the next segment
and tell you all about it. But before I do that,
let's tell everybody what we got on tap this week.

grub at the byg. The menu is amazing. They've got
all your Texas favorites like steaks, bahitas, chops, and it's

(08:52):
all grilled on a wood fired grill. Got burgers, you
got wraps. Hey, if you're vegetarian, they got salads, they
got soups, homemade dishes, and specialties like smoky the beer chicken.
Oh yeah, smoked chicken injected with local beer. Sounds delicious,
right yeah, and don't forget the green beans. I know
you're thinking, wait a minute, is this guy just talking

(09:13):

to eat your veggies? Hey, mom said eat your veggies
over one hundred different menu items. Get the green beans.
Trust me, you won't regret it, and over one hundred
different beers head out to the Backyard Grill in the
corner of Weston Jones Road on the northwest side of Houston. Cheers.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
All right, I'm really enjoying the same line as Boston
or October Fat.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Sitting here, we're like, James, James, I know you're really
enjoying that beer over there.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
I dropped the bottle cap. I was trying to pick
it up.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
I know, it's kind of fun watching you try and
run the board, pick up the bottle cap, drink your
beer and bring us back from break. And we were like, listen,
there's such thing as multitasking, and then there's a point
of diminishing returns. And I think you cracked it. But
meanwhile we are drinking good well, you're drinking good beer.
We drank good beer because Bill and I harbor light

(10:30):
Bill on third Mic. We are hanging out here at
the Beer Logic World headquarters and drinking importum. And we
told you that this bike racked Brewing Company Urban Trail,
Golden Ale. I think I said it's very crushable. It was,
I mean, just really easy to drink. Well, it's gone.
We drank it, so we have to crack open another beer.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
All right, well I still have my beer.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
End.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Well, why don't you tell us about your beer?

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Well, I that's like a nice deep amber, reddish color.
It's got a nice head retention on it, some late
seeing on the glass everything. I like it in Octoberfest.
But then go and take a sip of it.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Oh, here it comes, folks, get ready brace yourself these
tasting notes rich.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
In multi my only pleasant sweetness, light hawk character. It's
a little hearty, not too heavy though. It makes for
a nice crisp beer which I enjoy. Breadiness, little toffiness
to it. At five point three percent alcohol by volume.
Mm hm.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Taking another sip theret in fact, you're you're doing a
number on that beer. I don't know that it's gonna
make it through the segment.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
No I won't.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
I mean, okay, right, we're gonna be move But James
looks forward to this time of year every year, and
he builds up, you know, the anticipation for his Marsins
and his October fests and and fest beers, and man
James is, he's so excited.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
It's like a whole fridge here, studios just full of
october Fest beer and full of Marsins, and I'm excited
to be bringing them to the show, but I'm kind
of disappointed to myself, kind of telling Bill off the
air that you know, when you come up with this
great idea, but it's like a week too late. That's
exactly what happened with me, because I'm doing TV coming up,

(12:13):
because you know, it's October Fest season. I love Octoberfesso.
I go on TV and I, you know, talk about
my favorite Octoberfests beers. So I thought to myself, you know,
it'd be a good bit on TV getting a Doss
boot and doing a Doss boot. But I don't have
a Doss boot, and so I was like, you know,
let me just go on and order one. And so
I go on, and if I were to order one,
is going to be here in like three weeks. Yeah,

(12:35):
I'm doing TV in this week, so I don't have.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
If you are a if you are in the Houston
area and you have a boot that you want to
look not a boot.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
I don't want your Cabner boot off your oh not.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
A freaking cowboy boot, not something you wore out. No no, no, no, no,
up a glass boot that you drink beer from.

Speaker 5 (12:55):
I've got one for you, James, if you want me
to mail.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
It to you. Yeah, well if you can get it
for this week, I have.

Speaker 3 (13:01):
You know.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
I had a buddy also I hang out with and
barbecue with, and he's like, I got a boot, but
he had one of those like small ones that they
have that's like a sixty an ounce one. No, I
need like a two leader one. I need one that
won from like beer fest where you had the bubble,
you know.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Yeah, so I had not the one. I've got a
one leader one, and I've got a three leader one?
Or does that is that one? Is that one?

Speaker 5 (13:23):
That's what I got?

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Usually they're they come in leader or two leader. And
I thought this bit. I was like, you know what,
let me get a Doss boots and let me see
if we can do it. And with the bubble, because
I thought the bubble would be fun, you know, because
if you don't do the bubble right, it will splash
all over your face. And I thought that would make
great for TV. But I was like, I went online,
how big is that Chad Chad showing it?

Speaker 2 (13:45):
This thing's huge. I mean, it's it's the it's I
mean it's like the length of my fingertip to my
to my elbow.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
I mean it's like about a leader.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
No, this is way more than a lead.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Yeah, this is okay, maybe there's a two.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
This is at least two. It's like two and a
half or three leaders back.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
That's what I need, though, And I went to order one,
and I won't be here till late October, early November,
which is way too late. So I'm gonna try to
remember this for next year and do it again. But
we'll see. But you know one of those things when
you have this great idea but it's two weeks too late.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, we had a great idea too. We ran out
of beer, so we cracked open another one. Bill tell
everybody what we just cracked open from.

Speaker 5 (14:25):
Natural State Brewing down in.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Natural State, Bettonville.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
I read the camp well Rogers, Arkansas. Oh, Rogers, Okay,
probably the best venue I was at when I was
down there. Very nice place.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
But they have their Natural State Porter and here's what
and it's just a fine example of a nice clean
I was just gonna say, you know what, it tastes like.
It tastes like an American porter. There's no frills with
this whatsoever. No, I mean it is just dry, roasty.
It tastes like a damn porter. I mean, this is
what you want. And it's midnight black, so I mean
it's a beautiful beer. So thank you guys for on that,

(15:00):
and Bill, thanks for bringing it in.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
James beat Ryan down there in natural state.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Speaking of bringing it, you know what we're ringing.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
Now, the official What's on Tap Radio fun fact of
the week, brought to you by who's ever checked clear
this week, let's bring it, Chad.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Oh, I'm bringing it, bringing it home right now. Octoberfest

It's on my bucket list.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Chad, yep, I sa same here And for those of
you who've been, yeah, thanks for throwing it in our faces.
Shut up. We don't want to hear about it.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
And you've been David Our David Gardner are a good
friend at max Taps in Colorado.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Oh yeah, there's a name drop. Nice calling that. Yeah, well,
I don't know anyway. I'm just kidding. If you want
to tell me about your trip to october Fest, that's fine.
I may just sit there and cove it and be jealous.
But I read an article recently, because it is Octoberfest.
It came out and it talked about the best beer
cities in Europe besides Munich, and I found a couple

(16:08):
interesting fun facts I thought I would share with you.
So please sit back and enjoy your tour of beer
destinations throughout Europe. In Dublin, Ireland, you can stop buy
and of course see the world famous Guinness Brewery and
the Brazen Head Pub, which opened up in the year
eleven ninety eight. Man, wonder if they've cleaned the town?

Speaker 1 (16:27):
Is there another brewery in Dublin? I bet you there is.
I bet you there's a really, really awesome brewery in
Dublin besides Guinnis. And everybody just goes to Dublin to
go to Guinness. And hey, we're here too, man, We
make good beers too.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Come see, it's kind of.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Like a being a brewery in Saint Louis.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Right right, or the other brewery, yeah, the other other
brewery and Pills and Czech Republic, the birthplace of Pilsner
eighteen forty two. Pilsner or Kel has beer sellers that
you can tour and they stretch for almost six miles.
No word on whether or not you can actually venture
the entire six miles. Cologne, Germany, the birthplace of Colsh beer,

(17:04):
where you can get traditional cult service served. You get
endless supply of point two Leader glasses. That's zero point
two Leader glasses, really small until you put your beer
coaster over the top of the glass and they stop.
And in Goldenburg, Sweden, apparently it's a great beer destination.
I'm not sure why, but when I was there, I
didn't really notice. But then again, when I went, I

(17:26):
was fifteen years old. But one beer destination that stands
out for me Brussels, Belgium, and it made the list
and I happened to go there. Oh man, I gotta
say thanks again to our good buddy our Tiesaal Impart
Artisanal Imports, Bob Leggett and for taking me to Brussels.
We're there your official What's on Tap Radio fun Fact
of the week. You can visit the Delirium Cafe, which

(17:50):
is in the Guinness Book of World Records for the
most beers available in one location. Do you want to
take a guess on how many different beers are available?
These are bottled beers. How many different beers? Bill, take
a guess? Two hundred and thirty seven, two hundred and
thirty seven beers. I think they have close to that

(18:10):
at the backyard grill. But all right, no.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
One beer, James, one beer, Bob one beer.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
He's going he's taking the under All right, James, take
a guess.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Beers, let's go. Let's go five to fifty, five.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Hundred and fifty beers. No, you would be wrong. The
Guinness Book of World Records for the most beers and
one location is at the Delirium Cafe in Brussels, Belgium,
where they have two thousand and four different beers. And
you want to take a guess what year they got
the record? Two thousand and four, that's right, in two
thousand and four. They opened in two thousand and three,

(18:45):
and in two thousand and four they got their record
now that date, that number has since been updated. They
don't have an official count, but now it now hovers
around twenty five hundred different beers. So if you're looking
for a great beer destination, Brussels is awesome, but you
gotta go to the Delirium Cafe where they literally have
something for everyone with nearly twenty five hundred different beers.

(19:05):
And they are in the Guinness Book of World Records.
And that's your official What's on tap Radio fun fact
of the week.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
I wonder if they have anyone they have to take
the feather dust or two just because it's been there
for so long.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
They do. It's called Budweiser.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Oohoo. All right, let's take a break. Coming up, let's
talk about the NFL teams have the cheapest and most
expensive tailgates. All this is so much more. Hang with us,
we'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
If you encounter wine snobs, just take a full class
of wine and put it to your ear.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Mines will be blown.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
This is what's on tap radio.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
Right, we got a fun fact in us. We got
I got an october Fest in me. Chatton Bill had
a Golden Ale on you guys. Is that what it was? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (20:05):
And we're almost got a porter. I mean, what's the
ABV on this porter?

Speaker 5 (20:10):
Six point two?

Speaker 2 (20:11):
Six point two? Okay, well, it's very dry. And brewer's secret.
When they make dry beers like that, your palette feels
like it needs another sip. And that's brewmaster's trick. Bill
Onis all about the old board master's trick. Answer, make
it dry, and that's how you sell more beer. You're thirsty,
have another one.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
That's why I get. That's why I was a big
fan of brewed ip as. I know it didn't last
very long, but I was a big fan of brewed
ip as. And knows what it's drier? I p as.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
But you know, hold on, let's play a game. I
want to play a game. This is totally improv here,
all right, here we go. Let's play a game. Which
lasted longer? White I p a s or brewed.

Speaker 1 (20:51):

I was gonna go that, what's a white I PA
For those that are just new to the show and
they don't know what a white I p A is.

a wheat I p A right, because yeah it was.
It was basically, yeah, it was. It was made to
look almost like a if I remember correctly, almost like
a Belgian wit. But it was to drink like a
but it didn't have any of those you know, the
orange p like think of a blue moon, think of
a blue moon, but like hoppy version of a blue.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
But I remember what I did a collaboration with.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
All the spices, though I don't think I had all
the spices in it.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
What's on tab Radio did a collaboration with Wasatch years
and year like year one of the show, uh, and
they it came out with a ghost writer White I PA.
And they did a huge launch, huge push in Houston,
and I went out and seed at an event and it
was a lot of fun. And then we did this
big push and.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Then he just went away, Oh, I thought you were
gonna say, and then the truck got broken into.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
No, that was a different That was the shoots that
truck got broken into.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
It was the shoots.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, shoot this was This is a different brew but
that's a story for a different day. But yes, that
that did happen.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
I didn't remark from Wasatch disappeared off.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
That's I did an event with Mark Cleveland of Wasatch
who faded off into the night and we never seen him.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
He literally disappeared from the face of the earth, like
I don't know he was. He was one day he
was selling beer and he was everywhere. Everybody knew who
he was. And I mean he was a cool guy
to come out kind of hang out with. And he
came over the Beer Logic World headquarters and drinking emporium
and we had a blast and and we I mean
I knew him for months and years and selling beer

(22:52):
together and and then just one day I haven't seen
Mark in a while, and I just started calling and
texting him, email him.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
And I'll never forget we're talking about this guy Mark.
He used to be a rep for Wassatch Squatters, which
is a brewery out of Utah. That's right, Utah. Yeah, anyway,
so he his apartment or his condo is right next
to the radio station in the same parking a lot
of the radio station. And so I would get off

(23:20):
the air and then go to his house and have
beers with him, and we would go out and I
would go out when he was doing the rounds. And
then one day I go to his house and I
knock on the door and somebody's like, yeah, nobody lives
there anymore. I'm like what? And so I called him,
like Chad did? I called him text him phones. It's
connected nothing. I wish Robert Stack was still alive, so
we can do an unsolved mysteries.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
But what happened?

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah, what happened?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
What happened to Pale Rider White? I p A and
Mark Cleveland?

Speaker 1 (23:50):
I mean yeah, anyway, so he just faded off in
the night and nobody ever heard of him since. And
there's legends, there's urban legends out there, but nobody knows
exactly what happened to him.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
You know what, That's what we're gonna do. You guys
are gonna tune into what's on Tap Radio one week
and it's not gonna be here and Jane and then
you're gonna be like, hey, guys, what happened the show?
And we're not gonna tell you We're just like, we're
done and we're gonna fade off this. But that's that's
like twenty years down the road we're gonna be on
the air for It was.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
So bizarre because we did. He came on the show
like every other weekend. When I was in the year
one of What's on Tap Radio, we were doing shows
with him on the Outlaw Dave's show, and all of
a sudden, just nowhere, he just faded off into the
night where we are, and maybe he's listening. If you're listening,
we hope you're doing well, Mark Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
But Mark, please, yeah, good, tell us what happened?

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Inquiring minds once, I definitely want to know what happened,
all right. I was talking to Bill and Chad. Bill
says he's been married about how many years? About thirty
five years.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
Bill, you say, yeah, thirty five years, coming up on
a couple.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
And then Chad, you've been married for about almost twenty
seven twenty almost thirty years.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
But I've known I've known my wife for thirty two
years and I'm.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Going over about fifteen years. And both Chad and Bill
have paid for weddings or help pay for weddings, and so.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Yeah, my son got married. I got the cheap end
on that deal.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
But you do have a daughter, Peach. You do have
a daughter Chad who one day may get married. And
let's see if you agree with this. And I appreciate
people sending us stories at what's on tap radio? You
know they've dm us dm us at you know, Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram or ex excuse me, and what's on tap radio
at gmail dot com. Seven things wedding planners wouldn't waste
money on. Let's dive into this and see if you agree. Okay,

(25:31):
how about elaborate centerpieces. So think of the last winning
you went to and tell me if all the centerpieces
look like you probably can't remember, right, correct? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
And then you're begging people to take them home. You're like, guys,
take these home, please. We're not gonna use them. We're
just gonna throw them in the trash. Here. Would you
like a flower? Hey? Would you like a decorative piece?
Listen to me. I'm going to my local landscaping company.
I'm like, give me a rock about this big? And
I want and I want you know, I want twenty
of them and I'm just gonna drop them right in
the center table. Because I'm to use it as a metaphor.

(26:01):
That's the strength of this marriage.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
Like a rock.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
All right, personalized cocktail napkins. No one cares or pays
attention to them. Their normal mancoins are just fine.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
You're gonna blow your nose on it when you're crying
when they during the.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Toe, wiping your face with guacamole as you barbecue sauce,
barbecue sauce. How about a big expensive cake? Wedding planters
say cupcakes and donuts are much cheaper option, and people
don't care. People don't care.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
My son's wedding, we had pie. Okay, several different types
of pie.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
What kind of like it? Like apple pie, cherry pie.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
Apple pie, cherry pie, raspberry raspberry. Soufles are all.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
That sounds expensive? Bill sou FLEs?

Speaker 1 (26:42):
Come on, What about lots and lots of real flowers?
Because fake flowers are better than they ever been and
they look just as good.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
So there's not one person walking up and saying, wow,
this place is beat Wade and I have been those flowers.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Aren't all the weddings where people steal the the flowers?

Speaker 2 (27:02):
They walk up and they're like, wait a minute, this
fake Well maybe they're marriages too. Nobody says that.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
No.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
This is why somebody sent me this story because we
talked about the Kamala Harris coozies that they were selling. Yeah,
and I talked about how nobody cares about those coozies
that have your name on it, that's on the list,
any kind of wedding favor that has a couple's name
on it, like the beer koozy.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Uh so uh Chad Spuddy? All right, my son and daughter,
we we had. We didn't do the coozies. We did
bride and groom one and you know those are generic
and they're inexpensive. But they wanted barbecue for their rehearsal dinner,
and we pay for the rehearsal dinner, and I thought everybody.

(27:51):
And they also wanted us to get dressed up in
our Sunday best. That was part of the attire. It
was on the invitation. I thought, Sunday best and barbecue.
This is not a good combination. So what I did
is for everyone, is a gift for everyone. I ordered
aprons with the with the Aspen mountains in there because
they got married in Aspen and their name on it

(28:12):
and the date, and so everybody got to take an
apron home, and an apron served as a functional gift.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
And aprons useful.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
But that was ye.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Everybody toss off and everybody gets a cuosi, whether they
do with the kozie, throw it in the koozy drawer
with the rest of the wedding coozies that they've had,
or lordy, LORDI leok, who's forty coozies? How about a
bottle of fancy champagne for every table Because a manager
of a wedding venue said they dump so much champagne
down the drain, they recommend just letting people toast with

(28:43):
their own drink.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
And if that's right, and if you're gonna have champagne,
you what you do is you have a couple of
bottles on standby and just say for anybody who'd like champagne,
you can come up and get it and just pour
it to go, and then don't open the bottles that
you don't.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Need exactly right, save it for later when you're not
gonna be pouring down the drain again. If you're just
sitting and we're talking about things wedding planners wouldn't waste
money on, and what stood out most on the list
for me liquor, because the best option is just to
go with beer and wine. Just have a beer and
wine bar. It's cheaper and your guests will have, you know,
a lot of fun and they won't get really sloppy drunk.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
If you have unlimited open If you have an open
bar and you have beer Seltzer, beer Seltzer, cider and
wine or beer Seltzer and wine, I think you're fine.
You start going in the liquor and you're gonna break
the bank.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Well that's what they're saying. It's it's cheaper to just
go with beer and wine bar versus just having you know,
all these top shelf liquors because people they can have
the will. But people are gonna be talking like, oh
my god, they're the wils here.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Oh yeah, they don't care about what they're high nuon vodka.
What the hell? So, by the way, did we just
lose High Noon as a sponsor talking.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
With us about sponsoring, but we just lost that deal.
But anyways, looking to have a wedding, looking to save
some money, there are some ways what wedding planners suggest
on saving money when next time you throw in a
wedding or if you're having or planning a wedding.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
And here's what they didn't say. They didn't say cut
back on beer, so buy the good stuff, so support
your local craft brewery.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, absolutely, all right, still to come gonna beer. I
know a lot of diabetics out there. They listen to
our show, and there's some beers out there for you,
my friends, and NFL teams that had the cheapest and
most expensive tailgates. It is a football season, hey, and
good news. Unruly behaviors on airplanes is down. We'll explain
why it's not. Why you think all this is so

(30:35):
much more? Hang with us. We'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
What's on tap for the term social drinker is taking
on a whole new level.

Speaker 5 (30:43):
How about that?

Speaker 3 (30:44):
First? What's your pleasure? Gather around and pour around? What's
on tap? What you got? What's on tap?

Speaker 4 (30:50):
It's what's on tap radio?

Speaker 2 (31:04):
All right, welcome back at once on tab Radio. I
want to thank the producers for not playing cannon indeed,
because I was I thought we were gonna walk down
the aisle here after talking about weddings. And I don't know,
do you have to pay extra for to have an
organ player or a pianist play cannon in D that's
a classic, right there?

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Is it cheaper to have a band or a DJ?
Probably DJ? Right DJ?

Speaker 2 (31:31):
I thought I would say a DJ. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
When we renewed our vowals, you were there, Chad, I was.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
I was at that.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
We did my wife and I did it at no
label on our loved her so much.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
You married her twice?

Speaker 1 (31:43):
I did. It was their fifteenth interverse.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
So maybe we've been married twenty years. I don't I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
Anyways, show about math once again.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Yeah, I'm telling you.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
The first segments on the show about math.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
But you know, I'm telling you that I have something
that I've been saving and I just told I told
the producers, I told you I've got it. It's right
here and I cannot wait. And you want to find
out what the show about Math is about. Get comfortable, buddy,
because coming up later in the show, I got a
math problem for you. Somebody's gonna do it and you're

(32:15):
gonna waste your time because it's been solved. We just
don't know what the correct answer is. And that's a
good tease. We'll leave it at that, but welcome back.
If you're just now tuning in. James had his Octoberfest
fix with Sam Adams Boston sorry from the Boston Beer Company.

(32:36):
Sam Adams Octoberfest in the Boston Logger glass, and Bill
and I we had a traditional october Fest Urban Trail
Golden Ale and a traditional Octoberfest Natural State Port. Oh wait,
those aren't Octoberfest beers.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Another one by the way, See I got two of them.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
So as Bill is ready to open our third beer
because we are sharing here, James opened his second beer
and he's drinking the exact same one. How much does
James love Octoberfest season? And is Sam Adams Boston Lager
or sorry, Boston Brewing Company Octoberfest in his Boston Lagger glass?
Well so much he'd drink it twice, kind of like

(33:16):
marrying your wife twice. Now, don't get not to be confused.
You didn't divorce.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
No, we just readed in our vowels there. We did
a no label brewing company. It was a lot of fun.
It was about what five years ago, maybe maybe longer
than that.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
Five I think it was longer than five years ago.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Okay, so maybe I think Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Anyway, just but yeah, that's great. So if there are
things that you would pay for, wouldn't pay for. You
can always let us know and we'll we'll talk about it.
But hopefully you don't get cheap on the beer.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Yeah, that's a good question, Chad. I mean, do you
have a plethora of domestic beers and a couple of
craft beers because not everybody's an IPA fan or maybe
a Porter fans. So do you just have some of
those domestic loggers to keep them satisfying? What do we do?

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Well, you know what, I'm glad you brought that up
because we just opened up a very not inexpensive beer.
This is sorry, Bill, go ahead and tell everybody what
we have.

Speaker 5 (34:16):
Tropical Seyson Seyson Ale browed with pineapple and mango from
brewery Levant over here in East Grand Rapids.

Speaker 2 (34:24):
Okay, And so what's the ABV on this one?

Speaker 5 (34:26):
That is an excellent question, Chad.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
I'm gonna say eight to.

Speaker 5 (34:30):
Five point five, five to five.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
So this is this is like a floating on the
lake in an inner tube beer. Super I like it
in that it's tropical fruit, not grapefruit. It's true. Oh
it's almost mango. Yeah. I like it because it's brewed
with pineapple. And say right there, I can taste them.
Oel Hey, my palette's not broken, folks. My palate broke

(34:55):
a few weeks ago and I couldn't drink I p as,
But now I can taste the man going this.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
You know what would go good with this beer? Go
yacht rock?

Speaker 1 (35:04):
Oh lord, yep, I know, all right, yacht rock?

Speaker 2 (35:10):
All right? Well, speaking of a beer that goes with music,
I've got a beer that goes with Nascar and mullets.
And and James was talking about cheap beer at weddings,
so maybe it's a blue Jean wedding. But one of
America's biggest brewers is bringing back a cult cheap beer classic.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
See this is why I'm I'm not good at rip
and read I'm not good at ripping.

Speaker 2 (35:35):
Well, it says right down there, right from the headline,
is like down but never quite out. The lighter version
of the Champagne of Beers returns to store shelves. So
there was some confusion, like did Miller High Life leave?

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Well on my copy it says Miller Core is bringing
back Miller High Life. And I'm holding the paper over
the word light, my thumbs over the word light.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
You got some pizza sauce on your copy that.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
In this case, it was just my thumb.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
All right. Well, if you don't remember, we covered this
story a couple of years ago. Miller High Life Light
was one of the many beers that was discontinued. In fact,
it was, uh, we opened up just recently. We had
steel reserve, the steel reserve malt liquor, which.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
You done, Bill, and your yard had it.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
Yeah, that's in the yard. That's a fact. We did
dump that beer. It was so bad. It's a couple
of years old. But what was happening was is Miller
Core's decided to shift their focus toward Miller Lite and
building it up and building up the brand, and so
they started dropping some of the underperforming beers and as
the trying to figure out what the market was going

(36:46):
to do. But now turns out that Miller High Life
Light was down but never completely out, and his it
does have a cult following.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Who who who is the cult following?

Speaker 2 (37:00):
It took an eight count, but not a town. I
think I think Bill was his speaking on two levels there.
It took an eight count. It was down but not out,
and there were eight people that liked What's.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
On Tap Radio at gmail dot com. If you are
that one person that drinks the Miller High Life Light,
not the High Life, the High Life Light, please let
me know because I have no high life enough. I've
yet to meet anybody who drinks a Miller High Life Light.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
It's hard to drive.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
It's hard to find people that drink Miller High Life
much like I know.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
But Miller High Life Light you can't. You couldn't find
it for a couple of years. But it has thirty
four fewer calories than the og the Champagne of beers,
so only one hundred and seven calories, and people have
shifted to fewer calories and fewer carbs, and this is
where they're going. It comes in at only four point

(37:54):
one percent.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
As nobody drinks Miller High Life because they're just because
bl colories. No one's drinking that beer for the country.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Well, it's funny you say that, because they've done some
analysis on this and they're saying, no, no, this is marketing. Hey,
you're going to a marketing class here. They've they've put
up the Miller High Life bottle is a little different
than all the other bottles, and it's an iconic, nostalgic yep,

(38:25):
which is terrible for beer.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
I mean that there you go, and then Newcastle.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
I like it. Whenever James takes over what grinds my
gears because he's he's angry.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
I can see it.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
He's like, there is no point in doing this. This
is stupid. This is a dumb idea, isn't it, James?

Speaker 1 (38:43):
I'm listening.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
No, come on.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
The Jerry's not out yet.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Come on, Chad, go go on record and say it,
say it's a dumb idea.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
Go ahead, continue, continue.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
But they're saying cult followings and people looking for people
looking for lighter options is the trend, and so they're
they're putting this out there as a way to try
and capture more of that market. Of course, Miller Light
is out there right now, and Miller sixty four, which
I found this interesting. James, you remember you remember just
recently when Miller sixty four rebranded to Miller sixty four

(39:20):
Extra Light. Yes, remember when they did that? Yes, you do, No,
because I don't exactly.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Nobody remembers all.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
Nobody remembers that at all. We can't. We didn't know that.
But did you notice Miller sixty four got rebranded Miller
sixty four extra light beer. That's like putting premium on
the bottle right there by the way. Bill just did
a little research for US Harbor Light Bill on third Mike.
He's part of the research department which is sponsored by

(39:49):
our friends at Superior Pest Control of West Michigan. And
please go ahead, what'd you find on rape beer for
Miller High Life Light.

Speaker 5 (39:56):
Beer Advocate has it out there and it rates it
as a fifty five awful Okay.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
There we go, negative fifty five.

Speaker 2 (40:04):
Fifty five. That's a strong score for a beer that
I expected to come in way lower. But I don't
know what to say.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
I've yet to meet anybody like you know what if
I only had a Miller High Life Light. I love
Miller High Life, but if it was just light, my
life would be complete.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
If I had fewer calories. Anyway, the demand for lighter
beers is really what it's come down to, and they
are trying to saturate the market with low ABV, low
car calorie, and low car beers and going in an
opposite direction of what they were doing. Speaking of going
in the opposite direction, we're not gonna go in the
opposite direction. We're gonna keep this train moving. That's hour
number one of What's on Tap Radio?

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Coming out next hour, Hold my beer and watch this,
and we are going to tell you about a Chicago
restaurant that's serving a thirteen thousand dollars martini. I'll so
much more hang with us. And hour number two.

tailor and Travis inspired beer. You knew this. Finally, you

(41:59):
knew this was gonna happened. We got a Chicago restaurant
that's serving a thirteen thousand dollars martini. And when I
tell you why it's so expensive, you're gonna be like,
that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, because that's exactly
what I said. And finally, it's football season. We're gonna
tell you the NFL teams with the cheapest and most
expensive tailgates. Good news. Unruly behavior is down on airports

(42:19):
or on airplanes. Excuse me, And it's not why you think.
It's not why you think. And there's a rumor that
there's a riff from Reddit. All this is so much more.
We got to What's on Tap? All this is so
much more. Coming up an hour number two, What's on
Tap Radio?

Speaker 2 (42:35):
But it's already. I mean, I'm shaking that I can't
wait for that segment. But actually what I really can't
wait for is I hold my beer and watch this.
But real quick, I want to recap James is still
drinking the same beer. No, it's not the same beer,
it's a second one. He's drinking the sam Adams October Fest,

(42:57):
which he yeah, he just can't get enough, can't get
Bill and I we decided to crack into a local
favorite of mine, The Tropical saysan pineapple mango sayson five
point something percent and beer. Yeah, it's really tasty. I love.
I'm sitting there like, man, it's just loaded with mango flavor.
And Bill's like, that's because that's what they brewed it with. Chad,

(43:20):
it says so right on the can. And I didn't
see the can, but that.

Speaker 5 (43:23):
Your taste buds are spot on their.

Speaker 2 (43:25):
Back, their back. Baby, I'm not broke anymore, you know.
It's like, uh, I don't I know what broke me.
I know what it was. It was that one ip
a and it threw off my taste buds and I
was like, I have never been I have never been
so shocked by a beer I used to love. And
then I took one sip and I was like oh,

(43:45):
and then it wasn't just a bad can, it was
all of them, and and I just didn't love it anymore.
And maybe it was all mental mental, Yeah that's what
the show is. Yeah, well, I want to use all
the power of my brain to do a beer show.
All right, James, are you ready the.

Speaker 5 (44:04):
Premium power of your brain?

Speaker 1 (44:06):
Let's do this.

Speaker 4 (44:07):
Hold my beer and watch this brought to you by
the Ring Malda ten Hacen insurance Group, where they'll cover
you for just about everything except this.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
So the story is a little disturbing, but it's what
I learned from the story that's even more disturbing.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Do we need to hide the children?

Speaker 1 (44:23):
No? Well yeah, kind of, well again.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Because I mean you came back with a disclaimer.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
We don't need to send the kids out. You don't
need to send the kids out. And you'll see what
I'm talking about here in a second, but your children will.
A few months ago, there's a fifty seven year old
second grade teacher in California named Wendy Munson, and she
was arrested when she was found to be teaching drunk.
We we've heard of these stories before, you know, teachers

(44:51):
going in there and maybe they drank all night. They
went on a bench and just stayed up all night
drinking and then went to work. She was hammered. Her
blood alcohol was more than two times illegal limit, even
two hours after the cops were called. So you do
the math.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Yeah, all right, so if you're if your point one,
you're more than point one six, and you had two
hours to sober up, we start. It's it's like a
it's like a flight across the country. It's like ladies
and gentlemen, we're beginning our initial dissent, and you find
out forty minutes later you're on the ground. It takes

(45:31):
a long time to put that plane on the ground.
Takes a long time to come down from whatever she
was at.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
So this is where this story kind of takes a
turn for me, which threw me off. The DA dropped
the charges. They say, yes, it was very highly inappropriate. However,
it's not illegal to teach drunk. What That's exactly what
I said. I'm today years old when I learned that,

(45:58):
apparently in California, he is not illegal to teach drunk.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
All right, that is a very progressive state. But even that,
like that, that's a new level. Are you serious?

Speaker 1 (46:08):
That's exactly what the report says. Two criminal charges could
have been for DUI driving to school drunk and child endangerment,
but investigators couldn't prove that the children were endangered or
that Wendy was drunk when she arrived at school, and
as silly as it sounds, her defense that she was

(46:29):
drinking while she was teaching got her off the hook.

Speaker 2 (46:33):
So any word on whether or not she was fired.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Though I'm getting there. Of course, Wendy is not going
to get off scott free. The school hasn't commented, but
she was canned. She no longer appears to be on
the school's directory, and parents say that there's a new
teacher in place.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
So while not necessarily illegal, you're also not employed.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
So what's interesting is the cops were called around eight
twenty in the morning. Eight twenty in the morning, so
it makes you wonder had she stayed up all night drinking.
Did she get up at five in the morning and
start herself with a you know, mimosa and it switched
over to a maybe a screwdriver. We don't know, but

(47:19):
I mean, but what I do know that the DA
dropped the charges, saying that yeah, highly inappropriate, but not
illegal to teach drunk, which baffles me because you can
think of like public intoxication. But apparently they thought to them, well, well,
no children were actually endangered.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
That they can prove that they can prove. Yeah, right,
That's the thing is is common sense would common sense
is an oxymoron, folks, And if you don't know what
that is, well we got bigger problems.

Speaker 5 (47:52):
But she probably says, okay, kids, everyone pull out your
juice box.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Like me, Well, what I'm thinking is that, Yeah, she
must have stayed up all night drinking and then went
to work.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
I don't know or you know what she did. She
got up and had breakfast and she's like, oh man,
it's it's it's gonna be a beautiful day. Uh whom
my kid? And I gotta deal with those damn kids.
I hate those kids, you know what, and then just
grab grabbed a handle of whiskey and put it down
and then got in the car.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
That's probably I bet you it's a flask deal. I
bet she's probably has a flask in the car and
probably just took a few swigs off it. But she
is two times more than the legal limits. So right,
I don't know, but your ho my beer and watched
this this week is yeah, a teacher canned, not arrested,
but canned for teaching while intoxicated. So that's your hole,

(48:50):
my beer, and watched this presented by our friends over
rended to Naken insurance group. Where that get guaran damn
to you. They will encourage you not to do that. California,
what is going on with those laws? I guarantee it's
a law. It's got to be a law here in Texas,
in in Michigan. But I don't know. I'm not a lawyer,
but I'll learn something new every day. All right, let's
take a break. Let's talk about why a restaurant is

(49:13):
serving a thirteen thousand dollars martini, Why is it so expensive?
All this so much more. Hang with us. We'll be
right back.

Speaker 4 (49:19):
Sometimes we write drink beer on our to do list,
just I feel like we're accomplishing something. What's on Tap
Radio continues with James Simpson and Chad Pilbeam.

Speaker 1 (49:43):
All right, coming off of a home I beer and
watch this which has brought to you every week by
our friends over nal tenakan insurance Group. Well, they're gonna
show you for lots of things, but not these crazy
stories that we get to a lot of times.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
That teaching is not a policy. You can get no, but.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
In California it's highly inappropriate to teach wild drunk but
not illegal. That's what we learned in the first segment
of our number two of What's on Tap Radio. But
every now and then I'll come across a short little
I guess, a little land yap, little Baker's dozen added

(50:23):
value of a hold my Beer and watched this, and
we talked a lot over the years, you know, eleven
years we've been on the radio, and pretty much every
year we've done hold my Beer and watched this. Maybe
not year one, but we've been talking about it a
long time, long time, and we've spoken about stories about
people getting DUI's on writing lawnmowers, golf carts, coolers, writeable coolers,

(50:50):
luggage at the airports. We talked about that a few
weeks ago. One they go get sauced up at the
at the airport bar and then they're gone their way
to their terminal, riding around like a maniac on their
right their luggage, and they get stopped and get a dui.
But this is the first, this is the first I've
heard of this one. Now, Bill, you'll be happy to
hear where this is located. A sixty two year old guess.

Speaker 6 (51:13):
Where Florida, Florida man facing dui charges for operating an
excavator was going to say bulldozer at a scrapyard while
under the influence is going to break something.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
His name was John Castner. He's arrested by a cop. Obviously,
The sixty year old man faces DUI chargers after deputies
were called because he was operating a heavy machinery while
under the influence. Deputies said that they responded to this
scrapyard to reports of verbal altercation and threats made by
the man operating the heavy machinery, and according to a

(51:49):
social media post by the officers, they observed it Castner
operating the excavator while his normal facilities were impaired. And
pay attention to the sound bite. This guy sounds wasted.
Hang on, let's cut eight. Can we do that one?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Give me a favorite turnaround?

Speaker 3 (52:07):
Can I?

Speaker 7 (52:09):
We're gonna stay right here. Keep your hands together like
you're praying.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
Okay, just like that?

Speaker 3 (52:14):
All right?

Speaker 7 (52:15):
John, So you were in direct immediate control of the
vehicle when we pulled off here. You look like you're
falling asleep. Based off of our observations.

Speaker 5 (52:25):
Everything like that.

Speaker 7 (52:25):
You're being placed under.

Speaker 5 (52:26):
Arrest for do you a today.

Speaker 7 (52:29):
We'll explain it to Steve down.

Speaker 1 (52:35):
So, like I said, okay, I've heard I said, I've
heard golf carts, running lawn mowers, electric coolers, electric luggage.
It's the first time I've heard of an excavator guy
operating an excavator.

Speaker 2 (52:54):
I gotta throw this out. We played the game earlier?
Which one was around longer? The white I p A
or the brute IPA got new and he got another
game for you? Which one presents the greatest endangerment to
more people? Drunk excavator driving or drunk teaching? Which one
is the greater threat to the safety of other people?

(53:18):
Which one? James I would say, I don't know, I'm
going excavator because those kids are fine. They know they
know where the fire exit is if they have to
get out. But if you're in front of an excavator
and the guy's drunk, ear done.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
But I can imagine in a construction site, there might
be some people around, but there's not a lot of
people around, right.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
Yeah, but but srapyard. Yeah, but if he leaves the site,
or if there's a construction you know, there's some guy
coming back. He's got his little black lunchbox, you know
what I'm talking about, that metal lunchbox, and he hasn't
had time to put his hard hat on yet because
he just wiped the sweat off his brow.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
Stanley coffee cup.

Speaker 2 (53:56):
Yeah, there you go. Yeah. By the way, speaking of
Stanley cups, so you know that that teacher had one
going under the desk. It's like one of those pink Stanley's.
Is like, I got my juice box just like Bill said,
thank you.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
Added value there of hold my beer and watched this
man face a dui charges after drunkly operating an excavator.
That's not her first I've ever done a hole my
beer and watched this when involved that much of a
heavy machinery.

Speaker 2 (54:23):
Yeah, all right, So I know what you're thinking. You know,
with football season coming back, it's like, you know, you've
got the official beer of the NFL, and you've got
your yeah yeah, and you got your favorite beers out
there from your local craft breweries. But people in Kansas City,
they're sitting around, they're like, when is this gonna happen?

(54:45):
When are we going to get what we really want?

Speaker 1 (54:49):
When will we.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
Get Do you think Taylor and Travis inspired beer.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
A Taylor Swift Travis Kelcey inspired beer do you think
they need? Do you think the folks have and the
city went around and got a petition signed.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Oh they didn't have to. Fans were calling in, They're like,
when is somebody going that, like the Brewers Guild of Missouri,
and they were all sitting around there in Kansas City
and they were saying, guys, somebody's got to do this.
Somebody has to do this. Taylor, Taylor and Travis. They're
they're even wondering, like, did everybody forget about us? Because
I mean, they're not really on the they're not really

(55:22):
in the news that often rich with sarcasm, folks. But
Crane Brewing Company, speaking of excavators and construction equipment, Crane
Brewing Company located in Kansas City. They decided, you know,
nobody's done it yet, it's time that we give these
two a little bit of attention because we don't want

(55:44):
people to think that we forgot about them. So they
went ahead and brewed the t and t Oh yeah,
oh yeah, the Taylor and Travis inspired beer. Oh yeah,
and it's uh again, this is Crane Brewing Company in
Kansas City and uh wow, it's but.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
It can't it can't have their name on it, right.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
No, No, To avoid the legal trouble, they they they couldn't.
They just put T and T on it and they
put their hands together like one's got their nails all
dead and the other one's got a Super Bowl ring
on it, and they formed their hands together in a
heart and then on her on her wrist, she's wearing
a T and T bracelet that she had on it

(56:30):
the AFC Championship game, which is you know, it's all
just kind of done to inspire people to do that.
And of course I'm sure that Kelsey had nothing to
do with that because he has his.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Own beer garage.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
Beer right, yeah, with his brother Jason.

Speaker 1 (56:48):
And I'm sure are they still looking for a contract brewer.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
I don't know if they're still looking for contract brewer,
but they I think the plan is to get multiple
contract brewers to do it. I think they were talking
about you doing it here with founders in Michigan. Who
knows how that's going. But despite the fact that they're
growing and trying to figure out who's gonna dow their
next match, hasn't stopped him from making commercials. And Jason Kelcey,
the retired football NFL superstar from the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 1 (57:17):
I do like Jason Kelcey. That guy is funny.

Speaker 2 (57:20):
Well waity you see the latest garage beer commercial because
they did their own version with another former NFL football
player and teammate from the Philadelphia Eagles. Decided to do
a fun commercial for garage beer where Jason and his
former teammate Alan I lost his name. This is what

(57:42):
happens when you get pizza sauce on the one sheet
I can't see. Yeah, there it is just dropped off. Okay,
well doesn't matter. Go watch the commercial. You don't need
to know. It's it's Jason kelce and some other guy.
The other guy they decided to wash Jason kelcey cyber truck.
And while they're washing the truck, they thought, you know what,

(58:03):
a garage beer would make this go better. And they
start drinking garage beer and the next thing you know,
the shirts are coming off, the pants are gone, and
they're wearing short shorty shorts and they're they're they're spraying
each other with the hose and blowing bubbles on each other,
crawling on the hood washing it. The one's got one
leg up on the tailgate and he's got he's washing

(58:25):
under his leg and scrubbing it all up and you're here,
and they're playing zz tops give me all your love,
and and it is just playing and I'm dying watching this.
But the best part is they're doing all this and
they keep drinking beer, and they keep and they're treating
treating the beer cans like footballs, and they're hiking them
to each other and throwing them, catching them, drinking them,

(58:45):
spiking it like they scored a touchdown. And the end
of the commercial is the car's washed or the cyper
trucks washed. And they're both standing leaning on the fence,
peeing in the bush.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
I like to Kelsey's, you.

Speaker 5 (59:03):
Know, But for T and T beer, everyone outside of
Kansas City is just gonna rebrand Miller High Life Light.

Speaker 2 (59:12):
I think Bill's taking a shot here. That's at Harbor Light. Bill,
who now has a NEX account.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
All right, we gotta take a break. That's funny. Speaking
of the NFL, let's talk about coming up the NFL
teams that have the cheapest and most expensive tailgates. Oh,
this is so much more. Hang with us. We'll be
right back.

Speaker 4 (59:29):
Believe in something they say, we believe.

Speaker 3 (59:34):
We'll have another beer.

Speaker 4 (59:37):

pale Ale just in time for football season, my Cougar's

(01:02:10):
and uh yeah, let's talk about tailgating.

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
We cracked a beer too here, just real quick because
our glass was empty. You know, there's two of us
here to bill tell everybody what we're drinking.

Speaker 5 (01:02:19):
Vienna Style Lager from Natural State Brewing Company Rogers, Arkansas.

Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
I was about to say, better be Arkansas.

Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
Yeah, give give a shout out to the man who
put it in your hand.

Speaker 5 (01:02:29):
Yeah, Ryan from Natural State Brewing. Probably the best venue
I stopped at while I was out there. Beautiful location,
beautiful brewery.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
Well this is a light bodied and very drinkable and
not too malty. But I'm gonna tell you right now,
quench my yes, nice bright beer.

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
Okay, all right, very good. So we got some beers
in us. Speaking of beers going out to tailgate, whether
you're tailgating at a college football game or an NFL game.
So I'm out at every home game at the Houston
Texans play, and I'm seeing a lot of tailgating going
on for obvious reasons, because it's fun to do. So

(01:03:08):
a gambling website not exactly sure what the website is,
but they looked at the average cost of a tailgate
at each NFL stadium in twenty twenty four, and I
thought it'd be fun to break it down.

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
I agregate every Michigan State game, so I want to
hear these numbers.

Speaker 1 (01:03:24):
And the average for four people is around two hundred
and five dollars and seventeen cents to tailgate. And I'm
telling you, man, when I'm out there at the game, oh,
the smell is so amazing. And where I'm set up,
it's right by the Modello tent, and so I'm just
looking at this Modello tent for two and a half

(01:03:44):
three hours. I'm thinking, wow, man, kind of want a
Motel product placement, right, Yeah. So the price varies quite
a bit depending on where you are, though, and the
most expensive spot just hosted the Monday Night football which
was this was actually a few weeks ago. The San
Francisco forty nine ers has the most expensive tailgate, with

(01:04:05):
two hundred and ninety two dollars. Parking A loon accounts
for one hundred and thirty two dollars of that and.

Speaker 2 (01:04:12):
The other okay, that includes parking parking, I got.

Speaker 1 (01:04:14):
A factor of the parking end. The und one hundred
and sixty dollars covers food, water, soda, and sixteen beers,
so that's four beers per person. And the rest of
the top ten most expensive tailgates are the La Rams
at two hundred and fifty eight dollars, the Dallas Cowgirls,
I mean Cowboys at two hundred and forty two dollars,

(01:04:36):
James and the radio come at me, my brother in
law is already screaming at me, the Philadelphia Eagles at
two hundred and thirty eight dollars, and the Washington Commanders
at two hundred and twenty four dollars. So let's flip it.
Let's look at the cheapest. The Arizona Cardinals had the
cheapest tailgate at one hundred and fifty eight dollars, mainly

(01:04:56):
because they have free parking or a special tailgate park
spots for around twenty dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
Yeah. So the rest of the five cheapest tailgates are
the Atlanta Falcons at one hundred and seventy three dollars,
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at one hundred and seventy five dollars,
Carolina Panthers one hundred and eighty one dollars and the
Kansas City Chiefs, which is bafflesbe Super Bowl champions at
one hundred and eighty one dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:05:23):
So did it? I'm sorry I may have missed it.
I heard some of what's included? Does it say what
was all included in factoring the cost?

Speaker 1 (01:05:30):
Well, you got the parking.

Speaker 2 (01:05:32):
You said four beers per person.

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
Food, watery, soda, and then they're factoring sixteen beers, so
that's about four beers per person, right?

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
Wow? Yeah, I'm sitting there because I mean, I know
what I spend on a tailgate at Michigan State, And
I mean, what are you number?

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
What do you run?

Speaker 2 (01:05:52):
What do you think I spend on a good tailgate,
I'll spend close to it's usually three hundred, but sometimes
I'll spend up to four hundred dollars. But I'm feeding.
I'm feeding ten, ten to twelve, ten to fifteen people,
plus breakfast for another twenty people, and then I provide

(01:06:16):
lunch for those fifteen, and then another meal and our
bite sorry main entree and a side dish for twenty
six melephone players and another twenty parents. So I mean
we're feeding fifty. We're feeding fifty people.

Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
People pitch in. How does that work or do you just.

Speaker 2 (01:06:35):
No, this is just something we do that we can.
We consider this just part of what we do. Yeah. Yeah,
and we and we also as people walk by, we
feed them too, you know. We we hook up the
directors of the band and we we we feed some people.
That does not include beer though, so I'll tell you're

(01:06:55):
on your own, but we probably spend we probably spend
about i'd say twenty to thirty bucks in beer on
the tailgate. So yeah, I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:07:03):
Gonna give a shout out to all those Textan tailgaters
out on the blue lot. That's where I park in
the blue lot. And I'm walking back to my car
and I kind of I forgot where I parked because
I got there in kind of a rush and just
jumped out of my car. And I'm walking back and
I see these tailgaters and I was like, I'm standing
kind of rookling around. I was like, think I parked
over here. I was like, man, that smells good, and

(01:07:25):
they're like, are you hungry? And I was like, I
can eat. And I sat there and hung out with them,
Like I had no idea. I sat in there and
hung out with them. They famd me some brisket and
I had some hot dog. Really great people and I
forget their names, so shout out to them. They were
out in the blue lot at the Energy Stadium. Just
really nice people. But there are times that people get unruly,

(01:07:46):
and I've seen already fights on TikTok where it's kind
of Bill's Nation. They get a little unruly out there. Yeah,
you know, you have one team, especially like if you're
playing like the Cowboys are playing the Eagles.

Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
But you know why the Bill Do you know why
the Bills Nation is like that? Right? Why is that
because Buffalo?

Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
Because of Buffalo? That's right?

Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
But the winners sucked, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
It is called out there. But speaking of unruly, we've
spoken a lot about people just acting a fool at
the airports. They go to the airport, they drink about
four or five different drinks before they get on the flight,
and then maybe they miss their flight and they get unruly,
they get crazy. Well, a report just came out and

(01:08:29):
found Unruly Behavior on Airplanes Act has actually fallen seventy
five percent in the past three years. How about that
the FAA has only received one four hundred and fifty
four reports since January compared to almost six thousand and
twenty twenty one, and it's still higher than before COVID,

(01:08:52):
but much more in line than what was going on
pre pandemic. But according to a report, here are the
three most likely reasons where beating each other up on
planes is less than what it used to be. No
more mask mandates, No more mask mandates. Remember that caused
a lot of people getting shocking.

Speaker 2 (01:09:11):
Yeah, when they took away the mask mandate and everybody said,
oh okay.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
Like oh hell no, hell no, man, I not putting
a mask on. I'm not putting a mask on. Uh yeah,
that incidence fell fifty percent in a single week since
twenty twenty two. Another, look, different people are traveling. They're online.
Slash prices back then and got people flying again, and
that led to a lot more rookie flyers who didn't

(01:09:37):
know the rules. And they were also far more vacationers
back then if you were business travelers. So, and this
is what this is what shocked me, Chad. Airplanes are
serving alcohol again. What yeah, yeah, yes, they thought removing
booze from planes would be would help the problem, but
then people just got drunk at the airport and boarded

(01:09:58):
their planes wasted that was the problem, or they stuck
their own bottles and drink it as much as they wanted.
So some cases its just made things worse. But actually
allowing people to serve on the plane versus people just
getting drunk at the airport bar and then you know,
driving their suitcase around getting a dui. But unruly behavior

(01:10:19):
at airplanes down seventy five percent. Wow, how about that?

Speaker 2 (01:10:25):
All rights, you're playing nice everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:10:27):
I know people are uh, people are behaving. Now you
don't have to wear a mask. I guess all right,
we gotta take a break. Coming up in the last
segments one more, we're gonna talk about the best beers
for diabetics. And there's a Chicago restaurant that's serving a
thirteen thousand dollars martine. You're asking yourself, why the hell
would it cost thirteen thousand dollars. Well, we'll tell you all.
Coming up in the last segment of What's on Tap Radio.

(01:10:47):
Hang with us for one more. We'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (01:10:51):
Craft beer, it's not alcoholism, it's a hobby.

Speaker 3 (01:10:57):
This is What's on Tap Radio.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
We don't thank our friends at Tantrik Brewing Company located
in Alegan, Michigan, right there on the Kalamazoo River. Beautiful sites,
beautiful beer, beautiful food, and yeah, you see the beer
logic guy in there hanging out. Stop by get a
free What's on Tap Radio? High five, great beer, great times,
great food. Located Alligan, Michigan. Tantrik Brewing Company.

Speaker 1 (01:11:25):
If we we made it's already so fast. I'm so
much fun here. What's on Tap Radio? Last segments of
the week, brought to you by our friends over at
Tantrik Brewing and Chad and Bill's Neck of the Woods.

Speaker 2 (01:11:36):
That's right, Alligan, downtown, Alligan original where they don't they're
not like Cafe Delirium, which we talked about in the
fun fact, they don't have two thousand and four beers,
but they do have twenty four taps and you go
in there and enjoy it yourself beer and even some
low cal options which really pay off. Because James and
I we were talking about this earlier beer for diabetics.

(01:11:58):
We saw that headline. I'm thinking of myself. WHOA all right,
finally now we're marketing to the disease. All right, let's go.

Speaker 1 (01:12:04):
Well, there's I'm sure of diabetics out there, They're like,
I want to I want to partake what I what
do I drink?

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Well, I hate to tell you this, but it's nothing
that you didn't already know because carbs are sugars, and well,
it's all the low carb beers. The Budweiser selects, the
Miller Lights, the Cores Lights, the Beck's Premium, Corona Bush
Light a stell. Hey, if you're looking for something with
a little more flavor, how about Dogfish Had slightly mighty

(01:12:31):
Local I PA and then of course Miller Heineken zero
point zero. These are all beers that you can help.
But yes, if so, if you're diabetic and you saw
the headline like we did and we talked about it,
I just want you to know these beers are readily
available and if you are diabetic, these are the best
for your condition.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
So just any light, local beer.

Speaker 2 (01:12:54):
Local beer, Yeah, low carb beer. That's it. It's Miller
High Life White can be added to the list.

Speaker 1 (01:13:01):
Now, you can get it, all right the show, Thanks.

Speaker 2 (01:13:04):
Bill add value, nice job.

Speaker 1 (01:13:06):
I love the show. Full circle. We're talking earlier about
Miller High Life Light that I still want to know.
Reach out to us. What's on tap radio at gmail
dot com or slide to our dms on any social
and tell me if you are a Miller High Life
Light consumer, because I've yet to meet one. All right,
real quick, we got to rip from Reddit to get

(01:13:27):
to but I do want to talk about this. There
is a restaurant in Chicago that is serving the most
expensive martini in America. A fancy restaurant in Chicago called
Adelina is serving the most expensive martina in America for
a reasonable price of thirteen thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
Sign me up.

Speaker 1 (01:13:46):
For that much, you almost expect to get diamonds with it,
and good news is you do.

Speaker 2 (01:13:51):
Oh okay, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
Only that much because it comes with a fourteen carrot
gold tennis bracelet with one hundred and fifty diamonds in it.
And then restaurant is above a jewelry store, not Galaxy Jewelers.
Not They're not as cool as Galaxy Jewelers, and they
partnered with them, and so it's a mascola martini, not
with a cicada in it's. Uh so, unless you enjoy
the taste of tequila and campfire, you might want to

(01:14:13):
save your money. According to the notes here. But the
reason why it's a thirteen thousand dollars Martine is because
it comes with a fourteen carrot gold tennis bracelet with
one hundred and fifty diamonds in it. So let's fill
in the blanks here. Let's switch it around again. A
fancy restaurant is selling the most expensive beer in the
world because it comes with a fourteen carrot gold and

(01:14:35):
tennis bracelet with one hundred and fifty diamonds in It's
a white size, it could be any Oh you already wine.
Let's do wine. There's a fancy restaurant in Chicago serving
the most expensive wine in America. Yeah, it costs that
much because it comes with a fourteen carrot gold tennis
bracelet one hundred and fifty diamonds in it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:53):
What else?

Speaker 1 (01:14:53):
What else do you want to do? Do you want to do? Uh,
Miller High Life Light for the beer one? Yeah, Miller
High Life Light.

Speaker 2 (01:14:58):
Yeah, a thirteen thousand dollars?

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
Why because we're selling a fourteen kared golden as pricelet
an under and fifty diamonds in it serving oh man,
So that's why a Chicago restaurant is serving at thirteen
thousand dollars martine. Not because it has some fancy premium tequila.

Speaker 2 (01:15:16):
Oh yeah, there you go, premium. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
we're gonna end the show with a classic we are
bringing back for this episode. Rip from Reddit. Yeah, it's
a fan favorite. If you're not familiar with Reddit, it's
an online platform where you can post pretty much anything.
And just want to remind you that the views expressed

(01:15:37):
the comments given are directly from the Internet and do
not express the views of James Simpson, Chad Pilbem Harbor
La Bill, any of our sponsors or affiliate stations. And
this is it. So here we go Rip from Reddit,
where you can say whatever you want. Well, somebody put
up a meme. You've seen those memes before, Like Americans
walk nine hundred miles a year during twenty two gallons

(01:15:57):
of beer. That's forty one miles a year. Or that's
forty one miles per gallon.

Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
Move the show earlier.

Speaker 2 (01:16:04):
Yeah, we're basically a prius. Right yeah, all right, Well
that's math that works. But somebody else went and put
it out there and and and they said this, how
about this. Apparently when you drink a pint of beer,
it shortens your lifespan by nine minutes. According to my calculations,
I died sometime in sixteen forty four.

Speaker 1 (01:16:22):
I'm not saying yeah, I'm doing with math. Hew I
should have died with was boring?

Speaker 2 (01:16:26):
Well, Well, whoever did the meme? This is the Here
come the comments. This is great, somebody went and did
the math. Well, whoever did this meme must have just
picked a random date, because if this were true, he
would have had to have been twenty five years old
when he started drinking. And he started drinking at the
age of or sorry, twenty five years old. And he
started drinking at age sixteen, and he drank two million,
four hundred and fifty four, four hundred pints of beer

(01:16:47):
a year, which comes down to six thousand, seven hundred
and twenty four pints a day two hundred and eighty
points per hour. Even drinking that much water would kill
you in about fifteen minutes. So there's no way he
would have died in sixteen forty four. He would have
died in fifteen minutes. Well, guess what, he had a
lot of time to do the math, and a lot
of people had time to tell them what he thought
of the math. And here we go. Rip from Reddit,

(01:17:10):
somebody went and checked his math and says, hey, pal,
that's not two million beers, that's twenty million beers. You
forgot to carry a zero, into which somebody comment and says,
one of you alcoholics really.

Speaker 5 (01:17:22):
Sucks at math, Thank you OUs as.

Speaker 2 (01:17:26):
Another one said, people who write these memes are so
bad at math. This is somebody who's taking it too seriously.
People who write these memes are so bad at math.
They're probably that way because they drink so much. A
healthier lifestyle would improve their math scores and their life,
to which somebody says, nerd, shut up, geek. I drank
a high school, passed all four of my math classes

(01:17:47):
in summer school. I love it all right, this one
here all right. Strangely, the conversation turned to time travels, like,
wait a minute, if I'm going back to sixty forty four,
back to the future would have been way better with this,
so they said. The next coble was, yeah, who knew
that beer came with a flux capacitor? Now I can

(01:18:09):
return the plutonium. Does this mean beer has one point
twenty one jigawatts of power? And somebody said, I don't know,
but I've drank plenty of beers and got behind the
wheel and went over eighty eight miles an hour, and
it didn't go anywhere except jail. By the way, a reminder,
don't drink.

Speaker 1 (01:18:29):
And dry you're sitting in the wise comments from rip
from reddits.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
Rip from Reddit. Somebody somebody went and did the math
on Apparently, if you drink a pint of beer, it
shortens your lifespan by nine minutes. According to my calculations,
I died sometime in sixteen forty four. All right, this
one ear cracked me up. So if beer takes this
is a comment here on in response. If beer takes
minutes off your life, and we can drink enough to

(01:18:54):
go backwards and Seltzer is the future, can I drink
enough white Claw to find out who wins the next
World Series and then drink beer and come back and
place my wage.

Speaker 1 (01:19:06):
That's actually pretty clever.

Speaker 2 (01:19:08):
Oh, and then this one here, cover your ears on
your kids, folks, Guys, I'm an alcoholic, and if I
go back in time so far that I'm alive on
the year of my birth, I'm quitting drinking because I
don't want to watch my dad nail my mom.

Speaker 1 (01:19:24):
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (01:19:26):
Again.

Speaker 2 (01:19:31):
If you can drink two million pints in your lifetime
and die of old age. You didn't die. You were
a superhero from another planet and you were called home
and finally the best one here it is, folks, somebody
checked his math. According to my math, he didn't have
two million, four hundred and fifty four thousand, four hundred pints.
He had two million, two hundred and nine thousand and

(01:19:53):
thirty two pints. You forgot leap year. And he started
drinking at age twenty one because he follows the law.
And now he's forty two, which means he's part of
gen X, and he's no quitter, and he's taken minutes
off of his life with each beer and traveling back
through time like he's an outlander. And he finds himself
in the sixteen hundreds looking for a tavern that has
enough beer for him to keep time traveling, and the

(01:20:13):
local see how drunk he is, and now you're thinking
he would have died of cirrhosis of the liver, but no,
he's part of gen X and that ain't happened. And no,
and since he drinks like that, no one knows why
he just showed up in the sixteen hundreds. The locals
are suspicious, and the guy who used to be the
town drunk is ticked off because he's been dethroned, and
he yells out, that's a chick and she's from Salem.
Hang the witch, and that's how he died.

Speaker 1 (01:20:36):
And that is rip from reddits Oh way to bring
that classic back Chas. All right, I'm hearing the music.
We have got to say goodbye for this week. But
before we do, let's give some thanks. Let's think our advertisers,
every ones that keep us on the radio each and
