In this episode, we kick things off with a surprise Irish whiskey that caught us off guard, then quickly pivot into venting about gas prices and the reality of celebrating without the usual green beer gimmicks. Somewhere along the way, we tell you why you should follow Garron (trust us, he’s “delicious”) and break down our Beers of the Week.

We revisit the legend of the infamous “4th segment” before jumping into industry news, including Tilray and BrewDog making moves with U.S. acquisitions and Sycamore reopening as Club West Brewing. We also give a shoutout to Truck & Tap and check out some legit green beers from Phantom and Lindeman’s.

From there, we zoom out a bit—talking about how non-alcoholic beer is oddly becoming an inflation tracker in the UK, taking a nostalgic look at the lifestyles of high-earning 1980s hired guns, and discussing why craft beer might be cooling on cans. We also dig into how Guinness helped pioneer scientific statistics long before most people realize.

To wrap it all up, we explore the discovery of a 100-year-old beer cave in Iowa and react to George Clooney jumping into the non-alcoholic beer game.

It’s beer, news, history, and plenty of tangents—just the way we like it. Cheers!
