“The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer.”

– Ancient Egyptian Wisdom, 2200 B.C.

In this US Rugby Happy Hour Tap Room episode, Bill & John introduce a new beer and brewery to their listeners! Don’t worry, these breweries don’t sponsor the show... so it’s game on! I mean, if they wanted to, we’re willing to take one for the team... or many.

🍺 Spinach by Other Half Brewing Co

  • Brooklyn, NY
  • 7% ABV - IPA - New England / Hazy
  • In Honor of Rugby New York, a New York beer! You gotta get your greens if you want to be strong, just don't squeeze the can too hard. Packed with Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado and Nelson Sauvin.
  • Bill’s Untappd Rating: 4.0

🍺 Slightly Mighty by Dogfish Head Craft Brewing

  • Delaware, MD
  • 4% ABV - IPA - Session
  • A lo-cal IPA that is slight in cals and carbs with mighty hop flavor! Slightly Mighty has all the flavor and tropical aromas of a world class IPA, but with only 95 calories, 3.6g carbs, 1g protein and 0g fat. Brewed with locally-grown barley, and a touch of monk fruit that delivers body and complexity but adds zero calories or carbs, Slightly Mighty is light-bodied and offers a lingering balanced sweetness.
  • John’s Untappd Rating: 3.75
