This week we’re talking overrated beer styles and why IPAs caught stray bullets, a Milwaukee extra pale ale that Steve absolutely misunderstood, Olympic athletes apparently doing cardio after hours, Corona owning the Olympic taps, a ballplayer sneaking beer into the dugout, and more brewery shakeups than anyone wants to see. It’s craft beer, sports-ish, and Florida doing Florida things. Beers We’re Drinking: Flex is drinking Strata Pictor Pop from Amorphic Beer , a 4.5% extra pale ale with berry-forward hops, crisp floral finish, and clean sessionable vibes. Greg is drinking Planetary Alignment from Pure Project Brewing, a 6.7% murky IPA with pineapple, mango, and soft tropical haze. Greg throws a simple question out into the internet and accidentally starts an IPA civil war, while Flex goes to war with a guy named Steve who ordered a beer, described it perfectly, and still complained about it. The two debate overrated versus underrated craft beer styles, land on red ales and gose as forgotten heroes, and immediately turn into old men yelling about fruit puree. From there it’s on to the Olympic Village: rumors, future super-athletes, Corona somehow being the only beer at the Games. The Phillies release an outfielder after he grabs a beer on his way to the dugout. And the Super Bowl was a super dud, though the halftime show earned some respect for its production and tree-costume genius.
