Have you ever sipped on a beer that took you on a journey to another planet? Prepare to be transported to Moriarty, New Mexico, home to Sierra Blanca, the award-winning brewery behind the Alien IPA. This full-bodied brew, with its distinctive flavor and aroma, is not the only thing that'll captivate you - the unique alien-themed branding and the stunning beer garden at Sierra Blanca makes for an unforgettable experience. But it's not just about beer - we venture out on a thrilling road trip to Roswell, the famed site linked to UFO crashes, adding an extra-terrestrial touch to our quest for unique brews.
Our journey doesn't stop at beer tasting. We delve into the fascinating world of UFOs and extraterrestrial beings. The mystifying increase in UFO sightings, the curious phenomenon of crop circles, and the lively debate on alien existence are all part of our conversation. We even touch upon Goldie Hahn's chilling encounter with otherworldly beings - a tale that will have you questioning your own beliefs. Are we alone in the universe? Tune in to hear our thoughts.
The final leg of our cosmic journey takes us into the heart of government involvement in the study of UFOs. From studying the intriguing work of the UAP Task Force to scrutinizing the testimonies of retired Air Force Major David Grouch and retired Navy Commander David Favor, who claim recovery of non-human biologics from crash sites - we leave no stone unturned. As we wrap up, we ponder the legacy of Sierra Blanca and the future of alien research. We promise, this episode will leave you thirsty for more - both knowledge and beer.
