Welcome in, thirsty friends! Greg went full beer tourist and drank his way through Austin, and he’s here to spill all the boozy details. Meanwhile Brewing served up his favorite beer of the trip—so good it forced him to break a years-long Untappd dry spell! Flex, on the other hand, is freezing his mustache off in the Midwest, sipping on a Toppling Goliath variety pack and confirming what we already knew: people on Untappd have no taste. The guys also dig into the absurdity of TSA screenings, the power of food truck barbecue, and the ongoing battle against Big Beer’s nonsense. Plus, why is Michelob Ultra so damn popular?
Beers We’re Drinking
- Greg – Meanwhile Brewing's Tender Robot. A gold medal winning hazy out of Austin.
- Flex – Toppling Goliath Pseudo Sue – the Nectarine Hop Variant, jammed with tangerine goodness.
Greg went on a Valentine's weekend trip to Austin, which quickly turned into a full-blown beer pilgrimage. From Meanwhile Brewing’s award-winning haze to Zilker and Lazarus Brewing, it was one tasty stop after another. Flex, meanwhile, has been battling negative temperatures and living in a hoodie. The guys discuss TSA’s fascination with Greg’s “oversized package” and reminisce about the best airport snacks (Southwest’s Maui onion pretzels for the win). Greg also recounts a wedding night in Asheville that ended with gin-fueled regrets and a long nap on the cold bathroom floor. Meanwhile, Flex reveals his grandma’s secret to beer drinking (spoiler: salt) and the guys dunk on Michelob Ultra drinkers.

- New DUI Limit Proposal: Will It Change Anything? – North Carolina wants to lower the legal limit to .05. But will it actually stop drunk drivers, or just ruin happy hour?
