On this episode, Jon and Thomas take one for the team and try a few beers.

• Joey broughts us a family size can of Steel Reserve (swill) , an 8.1% malt liquor from Steel Brewing Company
• Nicole brought us Founder’s Mortal Bloom. A hazy IPA clocking in at 6.2%. She also wrapped the cans in a very nice decorated paper bag.
• My Dad send me back Cherry Chouffe, and amazingly crisp cherry beer which is a whopping 8% Imported by Duvel Moorgat

Topics of the show include -

• customers that love our beer and wings, almost to the point they needed to get a room. There was a brewery disaster that left the brewery closed for 2 1/2 days over THE most important drinking holiday - St. Patrick's Day.
• The brewery garden club takes off under the green thumb of Keri.
• The band you like, but didn't know you liked.
• How Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin are out to trick you into thinking they have the tech to go to space and back and the subliminal Satanic messaging behind it
• A new segment called Fun Facts, will blow your mind, at least until you understand the math behind it. And also how much we now respect Russians.

In part two Thomas and Jon talk about tipping etiquette vs (in)convenience fees. Georgia Beer Day happened and led to yet another “Jon’s gone and hell breaks loose” story. Jon realizes that he’s not a good trainer. Jon and Thomas are Social Media Influencers. And a conspiracy neither of us remembers putting into the show notes.

This is part 1 of 2 - the recording went almost 2 hours so we split it up.

This week Jon and Thomas catch up after a long break due to work schedules.

We taste some amazing beers -

We talk about Georgia Beer Day in conjunction with a band out back - The Magnolia Mile - who always draws a crazy crowd.

We have two AMAZING listeners that brought us some pretty freaking cool gifts that are on display behind the bar. Plus we get an email from a listener with a joke.

We Love our listeners!
