Welcome in, thirsty people to the Craft Beer Republic! Greg’s voice is finally back, just in time to admit he drank a beer from the naughty list. Flex is adulting with vinegar and has some tips, and Greg is trying not to get punched over his beer choices. We’ve also got hot wing standards, old-school shot regrets, and a case of the missing beers. And is craft beer just not fun anymore? Let’s see if we can fix it.

Beer Reviews

• Greg is drinking Inhume from Ghost Town Brewing — clean, crisp, and spooky good West Coast IPA.
• Flex is drinking Extra Extra Broccoli from WeldWerks x Other Half — big hype, soft peppery letdown.

Episode Highlights

Greg drank some 14 Cannons and lived to tell about it. Friend-of-the-show Otter nearly punches Greg to get him to drink a crisp Westie. The search for Dad Strength Beer continues. And Flex is sharing his fresh cleaning tips for your coffee maker?

We're also setting the standard for hot wings, getting some vindication over the 9-9-9 challenge, and Greg takes a trip to Naughty Pine for their big anniversary party! And Rumple Minze, is anyone over the age of 22 still drinking this stuff?

And we want to hear from you, how can craft beer be more fun?
