Feliz Cinco de Mayo a todos! We hope everyone is having some beer and guacamole in celebration. In honor of the holiday, Greg is drinking Stone Brewing's Buenaveza Salt & Lime Lager, something that pairs with some spicy tacos.
The gentlemen discuss how they've been surviving the Corona-cation thus far, and complain about smoke detectors only dying in the middle of the night. Greg talks about his trip to Mumford Brewing, ordering cocktails to-go, and finally getting his hands on a pool!
Ally.in.Cally joins the gentlemen to talk about All Together from Tripping Animals. This delicious beer is supporting a great cause during the pandemic.
Dan is drinking and reviewing the 14th installment of Luponic Distortion, the rotating hop series from Firestone Walker.
