Breaking the Beer Fast

Welcome in, everybody! Greg’s breaking his beer dry spell and kicking things off with Flex, who’s fresh from some spicy tailgating. We’re diving into champagne-fueled weekends, overpriced ballpark beers, and a voicemail from a familiar voice who’s calling us out over one of the Midwest’s best beer fests. Plus, we’re brainstorming odd business ideas, sharing travel stories gone weird, and doing what we do best—cracking cold ones and cracking each other up.Beers We're DrinkingGreg is sipping Short Lived by MadeWest & Shred Beer Co.—a clean, crushable Westy with dank hops and a hint of berry.Flex cracks Peanut Butter Marshmallow Imperial Stout by Energy City—smooth, nutty, and surprisingly not thick.Greg’s back on the beer train after a week of wine and champagne-fueled mayhem—including his first DoorDash booze run and a brunch that spiraled into bubbly debauchery. Meanwhile, Flex hit up the Brewers home opener for overpriced beers and underwhelming baseball but made up for it with Ziploc chips and spicy ranch water regrets. A voicemail from Brian gets the gang buzzing about the Great Taste of the Midwest. And just when you think it can’t get weirder, things spiral into Vegas tales, topless espresso stops, and a brand-new entrepreneurial idea that could only come from the minds of two beer-drinking degenerates.Booze NewsStone Distributing acquired by Hand Family Companies, ending its independent run.Great Divide Brewing sold to Wilding, parent company of Stem Ciders and Denver Beer Co.Founders Brewing now fully owned by Mahou San Miguel following complete acquisition.Anderson Valley Brewing changes hands again, sold to wine industry entrepreneur.Corona launches private island resort in Colombia offering unlimited Corona beer.Florida woman charged after allegedly stealing off-duty cop’s car and attacking him with a phone.Flex: Instagram: @flex_me_a_beerCraft Beer Republic: CraftBeerRepublic.comInstagram: @CraftBeerRepublicFacebook: CraftBeerRepublicPodThreads: CraftBeerRepublicVoicemail: (805) 538-2337
