Sour IPA Comeback Tour

About this episode

The episode discusses various craft beers, the return of sour IPAs, and the complexities of beer pricing across different locations.

Welcome in, craft beer fans! Greg finds a hazy that actually delivers, Flex accidentally grabs a milkshake IPA that’s way better than expected, and “healthy beer” becomes a full argument. There’s some price shock of pints around the nation, a longing for sour IPAs, and a few beers that no one asked for. We've also got crazy Bud Light truck drivers, blind beer tournaments, and a reminder that beer prices make no sense depending on where you live. Beers We’re Drinking: Greg is drinking Anchormanatee from Humble Sea Brewing , a foggy IPA with citrus and soft tropical notes. Flex is drinking Raspberry Double Marbles from More Brewing , a milkshake double IPA with bold raspberry and smooth finish. Flex shouts out New Jersey before immediately getting into why it deserves it, while Greg locks into a hazy that actually hits. Beer prices come up and turn into a quick reality check depending on where you live, followed by a rundown of “healthy” beers that doesn’t convince anyone. Flex stumbles into a milkshake IPA that ends up being way better than expected, and that gets them talking about sour IPAs and how they’ve basically disappeared. There’s some back and forth on easy summer beers…
