Speaker 1 (00:00):
The room.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
What is going on? Everybody? Welcome to strikeout Beer, your
least favorite podcast or your pals. Allen Rapi Day and
REPI Da.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
I'm Allen. How's it going?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
That's going good? Yeah, we're in for just a quick
little beer review. This is Octoberfest from Allstatt. Actually it's
all stat oct They were Octoberfest beer. Allen brought this
over day like that. You know what you get with
the one cool thing? Well hold on now, all right, good.
I wanted to make sure that we'd have some funky
green screen or something going or whatever, because it'll show
up on the thing if you don't have it. It

(00:27):
looks we don't have anyways, So we had the cans
look two different ways. You either get the dark blue
or you get the baby blue. I like the baby
blue run this time of year. About to take a
big young for them. Good now you you always met
me on? Can I get you to yep?

Speaker 1 (00:48):
In tradition with classic German mars and styles originally served
at october Fest. Mild hopping compliments the rich combination of Pilsner,
Vienna and Munich malts, which gives this brew a beautiful
light copper color.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Leader hose.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
It not required, although encouraged five point nine percent alcohol
by volume sixteen nine views, I ever score a three
point eight one out of five on untapped out of
six and eighty one rating.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
You know, that's why I want to go dog like
one of these Octoberfest parties running, because you know, the
leader hose or whatever. And also the chicks. They they
like to display, you know what I mean, they put
everything on the show, and I encourage that. I think
it's fun. It's for the party, for the people. Something
getting old. When you get older, you just kind of
turned to an old horn dog. Anyways, it's like it is,
I mean, just kind of an old guy find yourself

(01:35):
saying things out loud, like yeah, this store and you
see something you just go God, damn Jesus Allen, all right,
asking question smells good. It's like I said, it's a
little bit lighter than the it's a little bit oranger.
Is that what do you think? Yeah, it's not as,
it's not as. It's more than maybe copper is it doesn't.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Have that caramel flavor. Yeah, like the Union Bear october
Fest has carmel and bread.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
This doesn't.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
That's a lot of words, but pretty darned tasty.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah, that's they got two big old paragraphs for you.
If you want to read, that waits up to you. Yeah,
that's the other thing, aou getting old. We can get
some readers, man, get some glasses. There's no there's no
shame having glasses. You know. I've been wearing contents. I've
been wearing to see context since I was like twelve,
and then glasses since I was like, I don't know,
eight seven or eight man. And of course you always

(02:28):
break the first pairson. Then you get the back of
the backup pairs ugly, and there's a reason they do that.
They do that shit to you. So my first my
your initial pair would be like either the wire circles
or ovals or something like that, flimsy shit, you know.
But they're like, hey, take care of them, Like, oh yeah,
I sure I will not outside playing baseball and football
and everything else. And then the backup pairs, the brown
plastic tornoise glasses, you know whatever with the like the

(02:51):
Dead from a Stranger things. Yeah, I rocked. I had
to rock those rims half the time because I was
an idiot. Broken glasses.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
My brother in the military, they call them birth control
like when they give those glasses like here's your person control.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Oh god, are they just a black fat rim I'd
be in style now yeah, yeah Jesus. But back then, yeah,
like my dad, you know, obviously he's in the Navy
and he had to wear you know, glass, He can't
see anything, you know. I get my bad vision from him,
I assume.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
But obviously my mom can't.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
I was at the store one time, checking out or whatnot.
This this me as an adult, not me hanging out
with my dad. But I was in the store. She
was like, Austin said something, and she's always at your
son Ago, that's what his mother tells me.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
He's like, oh my god. I was like, yeah, what
what do you want me to do?

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Allegedly it's my son, that's what the question.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Bring me on, put me on Maury.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
He calls me dad, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Reminds me that Cat Williams movie him and uh whatever.
She brings that white kid in there.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
That right there, that's a white baby.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
He is from the caucases of Caucasians. Like, oh my god,
shall it was great look at this? But yeah, so
it's a little bit lighter. The head on it looks
good though it's but it's a little bit lighter as well.
So this is just a different their take on Mars
and because well maybe I don't I don't know what.
I don't have the book on me, the books in
the garage to tell me what a marson is supposed

(04:16):
to look like and tastes like. I'm sure this is
in the the area of what.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
It's only had like some sort of device around it.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
I'm not looking at the Internet. I'm not looking at
the Internet. Internet lies to you. They feed you nothing
but lies.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
That's not true.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Yeah it's nothing, but I can't believe anything anymore anyway.
It's just like my mom.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
The internet doesn't know who my dad is.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
So a lot of dad stories today, all of a sudden.
But yeah, so this one's a little bit lighter. But
I've had we had this almost every single year or two.
It's a banger every single year. But I do like
that it's less like less sweet, right that the malts
and stuff like that. It's just not it's it's I
like it better. It's almost, you know, more of the
logger like they used the vienna and uh was the

(04:56):
Munich lagger or the malt and so it's just a
little bit. It's a bit more crushable. I think.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah, have you ever been to all stebrtary out there
in Fredericksburg.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
I've been told to go and then there went once
or twice. I think I'm gonna roll down there this fall.
Yeah you've been there, right.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Yeah, just drove by, had the kids with me.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
The horn.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Well, we stopped in and I grabbed some beer to go.
I was gonna get something to eat, but that they
didn't have anything that the one kid could eat.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
They have pizza. Well oh yeah yeah the other one.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, the other kid, uh no, could could have fed
the other kid and me.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's just the other one. I was like, oh, y'all
eat her pretzels and pizzas. So I was like, I
forgot there.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, what's pretzels?

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Nothing? You gotta get that. You ever get the jumbo
one from uh not Buffalo wall Wings. What's it called?
Uh boomer Jacks. Some bitch comes out it's.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Dragging that thing out there. I've been there with you,
when you've been with me, when I've had it before.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
If I've been to Boomer Jacks, I don't remember every
visit all right, the two dollars beers, man.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Because all you do is bitch about me get pretzels.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Like my brother orders one every time.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
This guy all he gets his pretzels. I think they're good.
What can I say?

Speaker 2 (06:09):
They're not bad, They're pretty all right? So what are
you a beer cheese or just a regular cheese? I
was gonna say, and that, well, you're not a mustard
guy either, so that I like the mustard, but the cheese.
They have nacho cheese cheese.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
I'm not a big nacho cheese guys.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
So you don't do nachos at the ballpark. I do.
I'll talk about with my pretzel okay, okay, with my
pretzels specifically, just pretel okay, right.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Because it's it's a little it's spicy, and I don't
want the spicy with the pretzel. You know, I want
just a normal cheese. Give me a regular cheese, beer cheese.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
You're the most vanilla mayo guy on our I don't
like mayo, right, cheers? Everybody? Did you get this one
from Kroger as well?

Speaker 1 (06:50):
I did?

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Okay, so yeah, we've noticed that here lately. Okay, best
buy one? Hold on, what the hell get going on.
They're all scrunched together. It's gotta be good. Yeah, this
is twenty twenty five, ten thirty one, twenty twenty five. Now,
some of these beers that we've ran into at different locations,
now Kroger, they I haven't had an old beer from
Kroger or even like say Walmart, but some other you know,

(07:12):
say bigger box like liquor stores. We do run into
some old beers and sometimes they perform. Sometimes they don't
total wine.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
We're looking at you, but I'll call on these I
don't care.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
But yeah, this one obviously it's fresh. It's really good.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
I've ignored our emails about sponsorship, so.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
You're still colored.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
I do.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
That's what I like to go, and I've got a
big selection. So but big thumbs up for me. What
are you going to score this thing?

Speaker 1 (07:36):
I'm gonna I'm gonna be at a four on this.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I really enjoy it. It's really good. Uh, it checks
all the boxes. It's light, it's crushable, it's just it
feels great going down my throat and into my belly.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
There you go. Uh yeah, the same for me. Uh,
we just did it. Seems like everything's a four right now.
Especially with these mar marsins. If you're hitting it, man,
if if if you're checking the boxes and it's I
actually like this one a little bit more more, just
because it's a little bit more crushable and a little
less sweet. But I'm not gonna doct someone else from
being you know, true to style and someone that changes
or whatever. But in the realm of marvels for different folks,

(08:11):
I'm in man, this is damn good beer.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Yeah, really damn good. Have you guys had this before?
Have you been to all Stat Brewery, been to Fredericksburg
for October Fest. That's kind of a big deal, you know. Yeah,
they're real big and that that type of stuff.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
So a lot of Texas towns are like that.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, but let us know as always, I'm Alan, I'm Marty.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
