Greg is still drinking for two while Flex continues his dry spell. Greg cracks open a hazy IPA that looked promising but had other plans, while the guys talk about a listener’s mushroom double experiment, a new idea to tax alcohol based on ABV, and a Brewers Association report that is not exactly encouraging. Somewhere in the middle they detour into a Seattle growler adventure, a drunk lawmaker, and a ski resort arrest that involves marijuana, kids, and ski boots behind the wheel. Beers We’re Drinking: Greg is drinking Electric Limbs Hazy IPA from Beachwood Brewing, a 6.7% hazy IPA brewed with Mosaic and Citra hops. Greg rolls the dice on a Beachwood hazy IPA that turns out to be aggressively carbonated and strangely lifeless, which leads to a listener email about a mushroom double from a very hipster brewery. The conversation wanders into old drinking stories, including Greg roaming Seattle with a growler stuffed in someone’s purse while exploring the stadium district. Flex and Greg also get into the realities of the modern craft beer industry and how things like AI tools and shifting revenue are changing the landscape for brewers.
