We’re penny-pinching our way to a couple of great beers this week! We’ve got drunk city council members, Shooter McGavin arrested for a DUI, new brewery field trips, cringy open mic nights, and the cheapest cities to drink a beer!
Greg and Shannon are drinking POG Tart from Eureka Brewing Company out of Gardena, CA. Erica is sipping on Babe Brew 6 Hazy IPA from Saint-Houblon up in Canada, eh.
Are you ready for pumpkin beers? The crew is split on whether to drink them or not. Greg and Shannon accidentally walk into an open mic night at a favorite brewery, and boy, was it awkward! They also talk about the crazy drunk women at a cocktail bar that were doing their best to try and get arrested.
We’re off to Connecticut for this week’s Ludicrous Libation Law...and we don’t concur.
Cape May Brewing is being sued over stealing (allegedly) Shore Tea. It’s official: beer is way too expensive. Allagash is adding their first core IPA to the lineup. Shooter McGavin thinks he can get out of trouble for being... Shooter McGavin. An Indiana woman leads police on a long, slow-speed chase. And we have the cheapest and most expensive cities to drink a beer in.

Drinking Around The World
1 RecommendationsPack your bags; we’re drinking around the world! We’re sipping on some lagers, getting famous in the UK, talking trivia, getting angry at Untappd users, drinking some homebrew, and getting pulled over while high.
It turns out that the UK is in love with the Craft Beer Republic. Erica talks about her big news with the Great America Beer Festival. She’s also got chicken drama and a snake that tried to attack her while she was getting a beer. Greg talks about hosting a trivia night on the gram and the a-holes that play at breweries but never buy any beer. The crew talks about the new hats in the CBR store (go check them out) and then does their best to offend everyone. And Greg brings up the Untappd reviews for Morning Watch (spoiler: he’s not pleased).
Thanks to Vanessa, everyone is drinking Lager Me Bro, Tripping Animals Miami Beer Week collaboration beer. In the bullpen, Greg and Shannon are drinking Captain Kolsch, his latest homebrew.
Scales, a rapper from the Nappy Roots, was robbed, kidnapped, and shot at his own brewery. Modern Times plans to lay off over 100 employees before the final sale to Maui. Sonic hard seltzer is now the official hard seltzer of a major sporting league. Mexico is looking to end beer production in the north (this leads to some inspiring stories). A Florida teen was pulled over for not being drunk, but he was very honest. And the top 10 countries that drink the most beer per capita.

Breaking! Flex Drinks Bud Light Next and Lives!
We hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. Flex is back! We’re talking about some new breweries, drinking with Instagram friends, trouble for hop growers, and Flex has some awful news to share about what he’s been drinking.
Flex is sipping on Desert Noise from Eagle Park Brewing. Greg is drinking Cactus Cat from Ogopogo Brewing.
Greg talks about the party Pedals & Pints threw for Emo Night and what a great job Monica and Brit did on their emo collab beer. He also got to hang out with friend-of-the-show Fontana Jim at Naughty Pine. Flex did unofficial research with friends who gave him a Bud Light Next; not most incredible friends. He also tried to get drunk from some 450 North cans, but there wasn’t any alcohol; now, he just has fruit flies.
Chew Your Beer calls in to give Greg the business about his feelings on Untappd.
Mikkeller closes its San Diego taproom and production facility but still won’t address the real problem. In October, Maui Brewing and Modern Times will be under the “Craft Ohana” umbrella. Sapporo officially closes on their deal with Stone Brewing; another one bites the dust (this becomes a therapy session). Another San Diego brewery, Green Flash, is hitting the auction block this month. And German hop crops are not doing so well with the drought, it might be time to find some new varietals and we have questions.
