It's a full house at Hop Nation Central as it's Kelsey, Katie, Adam and Steve to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the podcast. They're drinking all 5.0% beers. Get it? If this bit continues, it does give incentive to hit 10 years. We get caught up on all the upcoming beerfests in the Pittsburgh area. Plus Zac Efron has a new beer related movie and is the location of the Wild Iggle revealed? Also we look back to the year 2017 and test our Hop Nation Knowledge.

Two podcasters walk into a guy's house. Turns out it's a brewery. Not a great joke but that's exactly what happened when Steve and Adam showed up at Ben Steffen's currently garage based brewery Arboretum Trail. They discuss the obvious elephant in the room of how do you put a 3 bbl system in your home. They also talk about Ben's brewing origins, a funny tale about Tree House (yes that one,) homebrewing, and gardening. Finally, they get into brewing beers for all the trail hikers across America.

An episode il classico with just Steve and Adam hanging out at Hop Nation Central drinking beers . . . but not strictly talking beers. First in the news, a sale on pineapple juice, Troegs gets even bigger, Heineken is terrible company in the metaverse, and Hoot Design and First Sip Brew Box give options to support Ukraine. Then they diverge from beer talk to talk about a new TV show on Amazon Prime, Last One Laughing Canada. The show featuring some of the funniest comedians from Tom Green, Whose Line Is It Anyway, Letterkenny and more facing off to not laugh. They get into the origins of the show and how it might work in America. Finally, they answer beer questions from the internet.
