Wait... Does This Mean That People Don't Like Massive Drinks?

About this episode

The episode discusses the popularity of Highballs, local breweries, and various drinks while exploring the bar scene.

It's Highball time in the studio - and there's a reason for that. I don't know if the impending closure of HighBall down in OTR is a sign of people not liking the cocktail, or just the natural turnover of bars - but I for one... like drinking them. We also talked about Fabled Brew Works and their upcoming international tap takeover, the downfall of Schlitz, and we'll try to figure out what mystery bar and restaurant is for sale in Mason. All of this is fueled by today's rum choice - Captain Morgan, that aforementioned HighBall, MadTree's Queen City Pale Ale, and a beer that unexpectedly got pulled from the fridge - something called Ožujsko... which I don't know how to pronounce, but I now know how to drink... It's a great episode!
