the analytics. People are listening around the world. We appreciate that. Welcome
to What's on TAP Radio? I am James. That's Chad in studio with
Chad Harbor light Bill. Welcome to the show. Got a lot of stuff
on TAPT this week. We're really excited. You know. I kind of
stayed around on Sunday just waiting, waiting. I'm like, God, can
we just get on there on the show already? Can we start the show?
Patience my friends? But we're here, We're here, We've got time
commitments. It's like we'd like to get on earlier and then stay on later
because it's so much fun. I wish I wish we could record our production
meeting and air that because some of the stuff that said in our production meeting,
even though it's like highly offensive, and people would write the radio station
complaining to get us kicked off the radio man. That's entertaining stuff, we
say, But I digress. We'll try to do Before we went on there,
we recapped it, and all I gotta say is, oh, the
roast of Chris Bradley. Yeah, so in my memories on social media it
popped up. We did this roast years ago twenty seventeen to be exact,
January twenty seventeen, when it was a transition between Chad taking over second Mike
from the original co host, which was Chris Bradley, and we decided in
style to send him off, and the best way we could by doing a
roast, and Chad and I decided, you know, because he has feelings,
we'll go a little blight every delicate flower he is. And then at
one point in the roast, he was like, guys, this is all
you got. And Chad and I just looked at each other and we we've
been holding back pal weed up our sleeves, and boy did we let it
rip. And it got really awkward. But hey, go back and listen
to our podcast in the past and past Bradley who helped kickoff What's on Tap
Radio, way back when you say it was twenty seventeen, I don't know,
Yeah it was. It was July January twenty sevente. January twenty seventeen,
January because we were freezing. But anyway, that was then. This
is now. I'm thirsty. But before we get going, we need to
thank our wonderful sponsors and as you did, mention one of our sponsors running
stunt Beer liver in studio with me at the Beer Logic World headquarters and Drinking
imporium, harbor Light Bell. But James, tell everybody please, who do
we have to think? We have a lot of people to think, including
our friends in Tantric Brewing, Superior Pest Control, Bero Logical Conference, Devinsive
Renitenation and Insurance Group, the Backyard Grill. Keeping my lights on nice and
bright if you notice Chad very bright in my studio thanks to Bill harbor Light
Brewing and of course sponsoring our podcast cast branding who I'm going to be hanging
out with mister or Ridney Campbell in the next few weeks when we go out
to Austin for the Texas Craft Brewers Guild Conference, bring you all the information
about that. But yeah, I've got a lot of sponsors, go out
and support them. But our first segment speaking of sponsors is brought to the
table or our good friends at the Backyard Grill. I've decided to uh trust
this into talking about them and bringing beers to the show. And we want
to say really quick, if you're in the northwest side of Houston or in
Houston download the b YG the Backyard Grill app and basically takes everything on their
website and makes it mobile, easy to order pick up. Or you can
go ahead and shop buy your tickets for the beer dinners, go to your
favorite app store and download the BYG app. Yeah, do that all right.
So I'm thirsty, I'm no chat thirsty. I'm sure Bill's thirsty,
and I'm sure you wherever you are, are thirsty as well. So let's
go ahead and kick things off with brought to the table. Who's going first.
I'm gonna take the reins on this one because my liver is on gray.
I like that you. Uh, this is kind of a mystery beer
here. I say kind of a mystery beer because Bill brought it in and
uh, I'm looking at it, and Bill, tell everybody what this is
Mcswick from Pigeon Hill Brewing. And what does it say on the can?
Absolutely nothing? Okay, there you go, folks. It says it was
a brood and canned and beautiful Muskegan in Michigan, my hometown where I was
born, and it's Muskegan's own Pigeonhillbering company Mixswick. Now, if you're looking
at the label, which you can't do if you're listening right now, because
you know we haven't done the Picto podcast yet. But uh, it's looking
Scottish. And I did cheat a little bit and I checked out the old
interwebs and sure enough, according to the untapped app, it's a nine and
a half percent Scotch aled. It's a wee heavy that's right. And you
know what they say, if it's not Scottish, it's crap. And I'm
gonna goad and take a taste here. Yep. Bill took the Spradley poor,
speaking of Chris Bradley took the heavy poor. All right, that's a
nine ounce poor versus Chad one ounce poor. That's right. Yeah, it's
a twelve hours can. Bill got nine. I got three. So this
is pretty delicious, a little dry. I was expecting something a little more
sweet, little more rich, nice mouthfield though you could really I could taste
the alcohol in it. Yeah, you can feel the booze. You can
taste the booze. Beautiful poor, a ruby color and off white, almost
tan head. That's how we kick things off. Pigeon Hill Brewing Company mix
Swick and apparently this was a tap room only can release from Pigeon Hill Brewing
Company, Miskegan, Michigan. All right, let me tell you what I
got kicking off this week, continue on dry January. I looked at the
calendar. It is the last weekend for dry January. So whether or not
I'll continue next week, We'll shall see. But I am going to continue
the trend because I promised that I was going to do it to our listeners
out there that I've asked us to do it over the past few years,
and I am bringing to the show from a listener's suggestion, the loganitas ip
inn a ah. That's the India pale non alcoholic. That is the rights.
Let me put out Oh wait a minute, oh by Barblaye, just
want fly in. I try to be an I saw that. Holy look,
did you hear? That? Is? I try to be a ninja
and pull it out and then went flying. I'm still got a child.
James is over there is like I got Nune Chuck skills and I can use
them to open a beer bottle. No, I don't, man, I
do not have ninja skills. Allright, gonna put this over my Boston lagger,
Sam all Adams Glass, now walk at him. Just doing that.
He's gonna take a taste here. We're gonna break these beers down a little
bit more because we're coming up on a break. But James, what's the
initial tasting notes? Oh, very citrus, c bird, I taste citra
and mosaic hops in there. Very good, very good, zero percent alcohol
by volume. And that's what I brought to the table. The loganitis I
P N A N A I P A, which I'll talk more about,
and then Chat kicked it off with the mixed swick. That's all it says.
It's just a no. It's a nine and a half percent scotta shale
from Pigeon Hill Brewing Company. We'll talk more about these beers, but first,
James, what's on tap? We're gonna talk about crimes against beer and
a gym that I'm trying to join and all. This is so much more,
including hold my beer and watch this and fun facts. We got an
action back radio show. Hang with us. We'll ride back. If you
encounter wine snobs, just take a full class of wine and put it to
your ear. Mindes will be blown. This is what's on tap radio at
a time when every tap and every bar served the same mass produced light logger
tho it's craft beer bars who were the earliest proving ground for the beer revolution.
For over two decades, the Backyard Girl has been supporting the community of
brewers and beer drinkers. Is one of the original craft beer bars in northwest
Houston to introduce guests to West Coast IPAs, stouts and amber ales. Today,
the Backyard Girl is over to over one hundred different beers with an amazing
app all with everything from classic beer styles that respect tradition to radically experimental fruited
sours, hazy APAs, and barrel age stouts. And yes they have your
favorite mass produced lightloggers too. Located on the corner of Weston Jones Road,
head out on Highway to ninety or go online to the Backyard Girl dot com
and be sure to download the the Backyard Girl app on your phone to make
online ordering from your device even easier. The craft beer bar is a pioneer
for the craft beer revolution, and The Backyard Girl is the craft beer bar
you need to check out in Houston. Cheers now that we got your attention,
close whistles loud still attribute to the beer Ninja Chris Rally and you and
you acting like a ninja with your bar blade. I try to be flicked,
pull my barblade out because there's a logging e this I p n A,
which is the beer I brought the table sponsor by our friends over at
the backyard grill. I try to be slick. It's just went flying across
the studio. Luckily no one was in the studio. Luckily I have a
stunt beer drinker. Because oh Bill doesn't here. Bill wasn't here last week,
so he doesn't know. Uh no, my phone still hasn't ring.
My phone still doesn't ring. Nobody's called me saying hey, I'll hang out
with you. I'll hang out with you and during the show to be a
stunt beer drinker. Because see that's the thing. So Harbor Light Bill hanging
out with me on third mic just because we want to drink beer and I
can't drink all the beer by myself, so we get to open more beers
this way. And so he's, uh, he's brought his liver with him
and he's he's filling in. And also James put out the call he's like
for for dry January, all non alcoholic beers on me and might want to
come over to the studio and all you hear are crickets. Nobody's I'm still
looking on my phone right now. No one's calling. Hey, James,
I'll come hang out with you, but I will tell you right, really
really, yeah, I'm only eighteen though. I went to New Orleans over
the break and I stocked up on a lot of good beer and just sitting
there on the beer shehelf waiting for me to crack. And so of course
I'm going to be bringing those beers later on, you know, next month,
but I'm sure at that point my phone will be ringing off the hook.
But as of now, no one's calling. But speaking of a brought
to the table, I want to talk a little bit about this beer.
I got some listeners suggesting it loganitis ip in a very very tasty I definitely
get notes of mosaic and citra. But I wanted to take a step of
it and kind of give you a profile, if you will, we'll smell
it's in the heat, yeah, the Boston Logger glass from Sam Adams,
so it's gonna always taste better that way. But full flavored ipa, definitely,
it's a I get some dry hopped with mosaic and citra hops. It's
a confounding creation. Uses the same agreements found in their highly balanced IPAs,
but you know they're hops malt yeast in water. But this is just just
delicious brood without any alcohol. And again this is the ip NA. Logging
is brewing, not alcohol. IPA at zero percent alcohol by volume, so
quite the contrast in Chad's nine percent. And folks, that right there is
how you describe a beer when you're totally sober. Way to go James,
way to go dry or January James sitting there is like, yeah, I
can read this copy perfectly, all right. Anyway, Meanwhile, we didn't
have anything. It just says canned Muskegan, Michigan. Uh. Bill brought
the Pigeonhill mixed Swick And I'm gonna just say, overall, I think it's
delicious. Overall, I think it's a really nice beer. It's a little
drier than what I had hoped. I was looking for a little more chew,
but flavor profiles, solid, clarity is solid, head retention is solid.
Overall, I'd drink this again. I would drink a lot of this
again. Actually, if you're writing a scorecard on a BJCP, that's a
Beer Jude certification. Always end it with I would drink another one? That
yes, the best advice. Yeah, they if you can't tell the brewer
what they did right or what they did wrong on a Beer Judge certification or
Beer Judge scorecard. Always, as James just said, let them know if
you would buy it again, if you would drink it again, if you
would buy it for a friend, if you would stock it in your fridge.
That gives them an indication of Hey, even if he maybe doesn't know
what the heck he's talking about from a technical standpoint, it makes me feel
better about myself and I know that I can sell this thing again. Brought
the table sponsored my friends at the backyard Grill. All right, Chad,
let me do this now. The official What's on Tap Radio fun fact of
the Week, brought to you by Who's ever checked clear this week? Because
let's be honest, that's why I really people are tuning in because they want
to learn something, right, all right, I've heard this before. People
have said, hey, Chad, what's your favorite beer? And I always
tell them the one in my hand because that's the one I'm drinking. And
they're like, yeah, you're ready for that. No, really, what's
your favorite beer, because I'll tell you I'll play that game too. My
favorite beer is free. Now I've heard that one. You're right, it's
hard to pass up free beer. Fat But I think we are. We're
going to talk about this later with crimes against beer. I think it's okay
to turn down a free beer. I've done. They are going to talk.
Yeah, you have to. I think in some cases you have to
do it if the if the circumstances aren't right, and we will talk about
what those are later in the show. But James, let's see here.
Would you rather have a free beer that's just okay? Or would you rather
pay full price for a great beer, full price for a great beer bill
full price? All right? See, there you go. Standards here,
folks, we hold up there. But some people they want the free stuff.
They're looking for the deal. Now. I don't know about you,
but the best deal other than free, that I've ever seen on beer,
I was in college and we went to a place called the Reptile House.
Those of you in West Michigan, if you're my age, you know what
I'm talking about. Division and cherry right downtown and it was a mosh pit
bar, metal bar, and they had this one beer on tap and I
think it was called skull Beer, and I think it was really just natural
light. And they were selling for a dollar a pint. I get down
with that in college, right. See. Now all of a sudden,
you're like, okay, now would you pay a dollar for yeah? Exactly.
And we've heard of the ten cent Beer Night in Cleveland and that didn't
end well, it did not, no, but maybe the ten cent beer
Night was inspired by another beer promotion. And this beer promotion takes us all
the way back to the summer of nineteen thirty five and it's the Texan Hotel
drug Store in Dallas, Texas. Now, if you're not familiar with summer
in Big d it's hot. This past year was particularly hot, and I'm
sure it was in nineteen thirty five because there was no air conditioning. But
the management at the Texan Hotel drug Store, they decided that they wanted to
try and entice people to come in and drink some beer to stay cool.
But not just one beer. How about all the beer you can drink for
just sixty cents an hour. What sixty cents an hour. Now that's the
equivalent of about eleven dollars today. So can you imagine walking into your favorite
bar and sitting down and say, here's eleven bucks and I can drink as
much as I want for an hour? Go wow, what could possibly go
wrong? Well, turns out this thing made national news, and there was
even a newsreel footage of this whole thing. However, the joke was on
the customer because management knew that they had the upper hand. While sixty cents
for all you can drink in an hour drew people in, you would have
to drink over a gallon of beer in order to make money on that because
the bar sold twenty four ounce glasses for a time. So when customers heard
all I can drink for sixty cents, I'm in, they conveniently overlooked that
they could have just paid ten cents for twenty four ounces and done just fine.
In fact, James, do you have that clip? Can you play
that all the beer you could drink was the most of this Dallas implorian sixty
cents or sixty minutes. At the time, beer was going for twenty four
ounces for a dime. So I took heroic popping to beat the game.
But in mid Texas, in midsummer, before the days of air conditioning,
the one cent per minute sub sales struck the popular fancy with beer going for
a song, who could resist joining in? They are chugging those beers.
How hilarious is that? The guy's just chugging beer after beer after beer.
Well, your official once on that radio fun fact of the week is C.
C. Brown is the only one who ever beat the challenge and drank
more than a gallon, drinking three gallons in fifty eight minutes. But they
said, actually he drank it in fifty three minutes, and he spent six
minutes playing a slot machine. And that's your official What's on Tap Radio fun
fact of the week. That's a good fun fact. Wow, all right,
we gotta take a break on tap this week we're talking crimes against beer,
pizza and beer. There's a gem I'm trying to join, and Jason
Kelsey is upset the Twitter world. We'll discuss all this is so much more.
Hang with us. We'll be right back. Believe in something they say,
we believe. We'll have another beer. This is What's on Tap Radio.
Back to James and Chad here we go heading towards the end of January.
How's your New Year's resolutions? So we giving them up? Are we?
Uh? Tick it to it? How are we doing? I'm nailing
it, are you? Yeah? I made a resolution not to make any
and man, I'm old. I'm living up to my end of the deal.
Well, you know people a uh one of the big things they like
to do as a news New Year's resolutions is join a gym, like this
is it this year? It's gonna be the year I get my body back.
I'm gonna join the gym. I'm gonna pound the weights and I'm gonna
get that body back just in time for summer. You know, I want
to look Goodness that that repper print speedo that I had sitting in my drawer.
Oh that's just me, No, that's you. But there's this gym
I'm trying to join. I'll tell you all about it's here in a second
after Chad brings his next beer to the show. Well, it's funny you
say that, because I've seen those memes out there and it says, uh,
yeah, I want to get in shape, but I really love beer
and talk or what is it? I've seen those people with six pack abs,
but clearly they've never had beer or tacos, and well this is kind
of the best of both right here. This was a beer I picked up.
I thought it was a from Prairie Artisanal Ales out of Oklahoma. It
does, yeah, but I had to look at a little closer, and
it's actually from Fair State co Op Brewing Company. It's a collaboration with Bottle
Logic, and it is a bourbon barrel aged stout with toasted coconut, caramelized
cocoa nibs and vanilla beans. And it's the finest stout that we got stuffed
with the second finest stout, and like straight out of straight out of the
Simpsons, mo style. And this is called Lobster Stuffed with taco. That
was the Flaming White, the Flaming What a great name for a beer,
Lobster stuff with tacos. I don't think there were any lobsters harmed in the
making of this beer, and I don't think I don't think there's any fish
oil or fish sauce in here. But let me take a sip. Well
that'll get the job done. Wow, that is rich. That yeah,
I know, kind of got some on my hand. Don't worry about it.
I got I got a way to clean up. So that's what I'm
drinking here. I don't know what the ABV is, but I'm gonna go
with high We're just gonna we're gonna go with high way up there. Yes,
would you assume it? Would you assume it's higher than the logging need
is IP and A that I'm drinking the non alcoholic beer that you're drinking.
Yes, oh yeah, this one comes in there. It is in the
fine print right next to the Surgeon General warning thirteen percent ABV. So that's
thirteen percent more than the beer I'm bringing to the table. This is a
little sweet, lots of vanilla, a ton. I don't really get a
ton of coconut, but nice beer. Yeah, for like the six bucks
it cost me. I'm I'm alright with that. A lot of residual sweetness,
lots lots all right. I think I just got a cavity, all
right, James, So you want to join a gym. I'm thinking about
joining a gym, and I just came across a gym that I'm thinking about
joining, and this is you know, you know, I love some brilliant
marketing I do. Now. Listen up, folks, I'm talking to you
guys out there. Your wife might start wondering why you work out four hours
a day and then come home wasted face a wait, wait, hold on,
I went to the gym. Yeah, can I come home wasted?
Yeah? I know you're cashing yourself. What kind of gym is this?
Well, that's what it's called. It's called the gym and it's actually the
a bar in the UK called the Monster's Arms, and they just changed its
name to the gym to help people keep their new yar's resolutions to work out
more. That seems like a lot of paperwork to help people in the the
new name the gym, so now they can tell their friends and family,
Yes, I've gone to the gym every day this week and it's in uh
Swansea. Is that how you say it? Swansea? Yeah, and in
Wales. If I don't say it correctly, just send me a T shirt.
I'll give you the information. From the baseball team. From the baseball
team, a local baseball team, and they put on a new sign last
week and it brought special glasses that look like dumbbells and if you show up
and work out gear. They'll give your first drink for free. What so
if you show up like Olivia Newton John and that uh let's get physical video.
Oh maybe leg warmers. Yeah, you know, they'll give you your
first drink for free. That's right. Leotard like a like a leotard pants.
I mean you show up like Richard Simmons. I mean you could be
getting into some free drinks. Oh my god, yess, that's free drink.
It's not it's not clear whether or not there to change the name permanently
or switching it back to the old name at the end of the month.
But brilliant marketing. A bar renamed itself the gym to keep New Year's resolutions
intact. Now been well done. Now. Bill was mentioning when when he
saw this on the one sheet, there's a bar in Holland. Yeah,
we have a bar in Holland called the Office. It's been there for quite
a long time, and usually if you want to have a few, you
just tell your wife, I'm staying at the office late. Yeah, I'll
be at the office until late. And then it's like, why what was
that that one joke I heard years ago about the guy who was. You
know, he's always broke and his wife is always asking. He's like,
you know, you get paid, but you never have any money. And
his friends were like, you're always broke and he's like, well, you
know, every time I get paid, I give it to charity. And
they're like, wow, that is really noble of you giving all your money
to chair. He's like, yeah, every time I get paid, I
just give it to charity. And then all of a sudden, she has
all this money and people are like, wait, did you stop giving your
money to charity? And he's like, yeah, Charity doesn't work at that
club anymore. She works at another club across town. I can't now I'm
giving it to Mercedes. Yeah, Charity doesn't work at that club anymore.
Oh my god. But there you go. I gotta say, I have
got to give it to those who have genius marketing. And there's a bar
in the UK called the Monster's Arms, who now go by the name The
Gym, so wide are off, you know, telling your folks, say,
hey, telling your wife I'm at the gym all week and coming on
waste face. Well, you're not technically lying because you are at the gym.
Let's spend that out there and that's gold. That is gold. Speaking
of a dry January. Not healthy for a relationship, but I like I
like the idea, all right, speaking of dry jeeen a dry January for
those that are, you know, taking a break from alcohol because they want
to you know, detox and give their body a break kind of what I'm
doing. And you know, I still got some beers in the fridge here
in studios and a beers that have yet to bring the show that I will.
But it's not just alcohol. People given up for dry January. Have
you heard of this one? There is a thing called dry January where there
is a company out there. It's a campaign and it's going off dry January
where they gonna give ten people ten thousand dollars to give up their smartphone for
a full month, full month. Take it right now, sign me out.
So would you be willing to give up your smartphone for one month in
exchange for ten thousand dollars? I wouldn't even get on my smartphone to tell
everybody that I was going to be gone for a month. I'd say take
it. Yep. There's a campaign inspired inspired by dry January, which many
are partaking but I feel like a lot of people have already just given up
on it. But hey, here I am. I'm still sticking to it
with my IP and a from log and edi. But uh yeah, they're
gonna give ten people ten thousand dollars for giving up smartphones for a full month,
and it's actually from a fancy yogurt brand called Siggi's, And they're doing
this because the average person spends five point four hours on their phones each day,
and they believe that the power of living simpler life with fewer distractions like
your phone. So if you're interested, you can apply their website, which
will dot com and you will need to write and you'll need to write a
one hundred to a five hundred word essay on why you need a digital detox,
and the quality of that essay will factor whether or not you get picked.
And also, because you can't go a whole month without a phone because
you know, emergencies happen, guys, they're gonna give you a one month
prepaid flip phone so you don't have to go without a phone. And also,
while they're at it, they're gonna give you a three months to apply
yogurts and a lock box for you to put your smartphone in for the full
month and winners will be announced in mid February, and it's unclear when the
actual digital detox will start. But if you're interested, you can just go
to the website dot com and they're all a sponsor. But I'm sure I
can believe this. If you just go google it, I'm sure you'll find
it. But yeah, you could get ten thousand dollars if you give up
your smartphone for one month. Ready for this. I used my smartphone while
you were telling that story to go look up to see if anybody has ever
brewed beer with Siggy's yogurt, and they have. There are people out there
making kettle sour beer because it's basically it's it's you know, lactose and lactobacillis
and so it's a sour culture. And people are making beer out of Siggy's
yogurt and other types of that good belly. They a lot of people use
good belly for that. See, there you go. But I had to
use my smartphone to do that. So if I didn't have my smartphone,
i'd have ten thousand dollars and I'd have to actually get back to you on
that. I'll check in with you later with the answer life before smartphones.
I'll see, I can't even remember what life was like before. I give
me the answer in thirty days. All right, So get go, get
that gym membership at the bar, call the gym and then yeah, detoks
your your your mental health with taking a sobriety from your phone for ten thousand
dollars. All right, thing is a drug? Huh Yeah? All right,
speaking of not you know, hitting the gym, Let's talk about pizza
and beer. And also Jason Kelsey is getting a beating. We're gonna talk
about that. All this is so much more, including Crimes against beerau we'll
talk about that. All this is so much more. We'll grab a beer.
It's like pouring smiles on your brain. What's on Tap Radio continues right
on tap this week Primes against Beer and hayjer Bush has been named the official
beer sponsor of You my friend could be in a Super Bowl commercial. Wow,
that'll be that'll be fun. That could be fun. James and I
we're available, Yeah, we are available. And Jason Kelsey is getting a
beating, and I'm gonna come out and defend him. I'm gonna come out
and defend him. I think, Oh, this is so much more you
think I like that. I am definitely defending that guy problem. Maybe all
right, I'm out here. James is at studios on the west side of
Houston, and I am hanging out here at the Beer Logic World headquarters and
drinking emporium Stunt Beer. Liver Bill is in studio with me because we are
taking down a couple of big beers and uh, it's a team effort.
It's a team effort. Meanwhile, James has decided to abstain for the month
of January, and I was cleaning out a little, doing a little housekeeping
on the old laptop, and I stumbled onto this. This is out of
the cellar. This is from archive, and I think we've done this one
before, but I think it's worth bringing back to the show. And do
you remember when Anheuser Busch released Budweiser zero point zero y? Yes, yes,
actually they still sell it, they still sell it. Yeah. Well,
I remember when it originally got released and we did a ripped from Reddit
on it, and I happened to find the rip from Reddit that we did,
and it is one of the best ripped from Reddit. So ever done
reset rip from readit because we get new listeners all the time. Right,
we haven't done rip from Reddit in a while, but while no, it
was, we haven't. It was a great bit. Well, if you
want to sponsor it, folks, we can bring it back every week,
each and every week Oakstown Brewery speaking speaking of pizza and beer. But all
right, we'll talk to that guy later anyway, Rip from Reddit. Reddit
is the wild West of the Internet. It's an online social media platform where
you can join different groups that talk about different topics and pretty much you can
say whatever you want uncensored. And the views expressed right about now that we're
gonna share do not reflect those of James Simpson, Chad Pilbeam, what's on
Tap Radio, any of the producers or our sponsors, advertisers or affiliate stations.
So there's our disclaimer. In other words, what you're about to hear
is off the Internet. And so it was Anheuser Busch releases Budweiser's zero point
zero and in honor of James doing dry January, I thought this would be
a good time to reflect on that, and so the comments came in on
Budweiser zero point zero, the first one which topped off on the list.
There. This is this beer is properly named for the score that it gets
on untapped. I'm like, okay, and oh great, now the hardcore
Christians are posting on the beer page that the guy responds Christians say all sins
can be forgiven, but not this one. Oh my goodness, all right,
another one here, Hey, pal, wrong group, don't bring your
AA pessimism over here. We like to have fun again. This is ripped
from Reddit. A non alcoholic beer, Budweiser zero point zero from a year
ago. Ladies and gentlemen cover the kid's ears on this one, because this
one here, bud zero point zero. It's like watching porn on your radio,
all right, but Budweiser zero point zero. Hey, you you do
you, you drink what you want. Just don't come to me bragging that
you drink a thirty pack. I was drinking. I was zero point zero.
This is so good. I mean, I just I I'm glad.
I held onto this one and it was like help, I've fallen and my
Budweiser is broken. Oh my gosh, oh yes, oh this way here,
bud Bud zero point zero makes you smell homeless without actually being homeless.
Oh my goodness. All right, let's see here. I think I just
okay. Budweiser zero point zero. If this is your beer, your date
must be inflatable. Wow, Oh my goodness. Just a couple more here
now, alcoholic beer. It's for beer for people who broke their liver.
Somewhere out there, there is a real beer crying about this post. Oh
my goodness. And finally from the rip from red a non alcoholic beer,
Budweiser zero point zero. I look at non alcoholic beer in the store the
same way some people look at a puppy that's too ugly to get adopted,
and that is ripped from Reddit out of the cellar. Bringing it back for
James doing dryer January drinking non alcoholic beer. I did that as a tribute.
I couldn't believe I held on to that one. And I think it's
worth celebrating because I think our stigma around non alcoholic beer has changed a lot.
No, because it's gotten better, right, it's gotten a lot better.
I mean it's it used to be kind of just like that, you
know, the butt of a joke. But now it's gotten a lot better.
Oh my god. The other day I posted it. I tweeted this
picture of the just the Haze Samuel Adams non alcoholic eye, and you know
this is it's like a World Beer Cup winner. It's one at the GABFL
Great American Beer Festival. So I just witted a picture of the of the
of the beer, saying how I liked, and I put hashtag dry January
and then some ahle response who cares, in which I responded, my doctor.
I was gonna say, my doctor does so. But I'm not that
kind of guy. I know there's people out there like, well, it's
been you know that many days, this many days, and good, hey,
good for you. But I don't go around doing that. I don't
go right and you know, it's been twenty three days since I've had a
drop of alcohol. I don't do that, and I hate I get annoying
when people do that. You know, lotto people that go vegan, like,
well, it's been a you know, thirty three days since I've put
that nasty meat in my mouth. Right, Yeah, there's an old joke
about that. It's it's what is it, it's a CrossFit or a vegan
and a person who doesn't drink alcohol all walked into a bar. I know
because they told me all about it. All right, all right, so
let's go into the world of sports here in Michigan just for a second,
because the Detroit Lions are like the greatest thing to hit the state since well,
what about Michigan just winning the championship. Yeah, but that's a house
divided because U of M is if you're a Spartan fan, you're not a
U of M fan. Okay, it's just because there's no two NFL teams
in Michigan, right exactly. Yeah, well that technically there are, because
if you live in the up you're more likely to be a Packer fan than
you are a Lions fan. But that's another story, gotcha. But I
wanted to point this out that with all of the posts going up about the
Lions and the home playoff games and the wins and everything, the one that
stole my heart was this one picture of this guy eating his sandwich. But
not just any sandwich. It was what I would call the equivalent of like
the beer snake sandwich. Now, if you're not familiar with the beer snake,
that's when you take all the cups and you stack them all up and
they go, you know, all the empty cups goes on a second deck
at Wrigley Field, Right. Yeah, this guy had a three foot sandwich.
How do you get three foot sandwich in there? Exactly? They sell
it at one spot in Ford Field. It's called the fifty yard line because
it's supposed to represent the length of the fifty yard line, which is not
three feet, but you get the idea. It's so big. It's the
width of the fifty yard line and it's supposed to feed eight to twelve people.
This guy was sitting there eating it by himself. You have to order
it. You have to order it before kickoff and then you pick it up
at halftime. And it costs two hundred and fifty dollars. Was he Shaggy
from Scooby Doo? I know, And I'm saying here, I'm thinking to
myself, this is awesome. This is a guy who's there, he's in
the moment. Now. No word on whether or not he ate the whole
thing. But the one thing I noticed that was so disappointing. Didn't have
a beer to wash it down with. I don't think he had any money
left over, probably could just playoff tickets two thousand dollars sandwich two hundred and
fifty dollars beer money. Can you help a guy out? I'll even take
it on alcoholic one please? All right, James, that's the first hour.
What do we have coming up? Next hour? Next hour we're talking
pizza and beer, crimes against beer and Anaja Bush's name, the official beer
sponsor will tell you who and all this and so much more, including hold

a little more fun here? I asked, uh, Bill, who's standing
in here on stunt liver for me? On third mic from Harvard Light Brewing
Company, proud sponsors of this show, and he, I said, go
in there and reach in there and grab a hole of this. He says,
never heard of this brewery, and it says it's a black glogger game
on. Let's go ahead and cleanse our pallets with a five point six percent
black lagger from a brewery I've never heard of, he says, I don't
even know where wood Shop Brewing is. I was like, oh, yeah,
well I did say grab anything. So anyway, this is a beer
that comes from a home brewer. And he has his own label name and
cans. Yes, he he's got his own canning in his garage. And
I'm gonna get this cat on the show. I'm telling you what, Tyson,
you're coming on the show. He's a he's a listener now, but
oh yeah, absolutely give him a name drop. He's listening right now,
all right, mm hmm. And I may have poured a little heavy there.
Oops, that's all right, that's all Bills like, that's fine,
Chad, you could do that. No, look at that, that's keep
going. Look at that. That's an even poor solid all right. This
is a sixteen ounce can from wood Shop Brewing, which is not a real
brewery. So if you're looking for it, if you go and try and
check it in. Not gonna happen, folks, it doesn't exist. But
it's a really cool logo because he took a hop cone and if you look
at the top of it, it's it's like a saw blade. It's like
a circular saw blade. Yeah, because it's in his woodshop. So there
you go, wood shup. Bring Tyson. It makes really good beer.
I got to go and check it out, and he gave me a few
cans to bring on the show, so this happens to be one of them,
Thanks Tyson. Though light bodied but roasty, That's what I like about
it. Very roasty, but clean, real crisp clean. After i'd say,
after the sweet beers that we've been drinking in the high ABV beers,
I feel like I'm gonna chug this. We're gonna get to another beer in
the next segment because this is gonna go down really smooth. It's a welcome
change. It is, yes, all right, palate cleanser, it's delicious.
I think it's time. Let's do uh, let's push this button right
here beer and watch this brought to you by the ring Meld of ten Hacen
Insurance Group, where they'll cover you for just about everything except this. I'll
tell you. There's not a lot of details in this story. But what
I will tell you this is a very scary story. And uh, hey,
Bill, you want to guess what state this happened in. Boy,
gotta go with Florida. You win again, my friend, you win again.
Chat tell what you want. What is it with Florida? Man?
Oh my goodness, this happened in Middle Bird, Florida. A forty three
year old man named Douglas Moore was arrested. And this happened during the holidays
when we were off. But uh, this is scary. You know people
sometimes joke about grinches during the holiday season. Boy, mister Douglas here he
is really out to hurt people. Wow, he could have really hurt people
because he opened fire on a Christmas parade. Wait, open fire with what?
Like? Was he popping bottletops on seven to fifty millimeters beer bottles?
Was he was he cracking open bombers? Was he was he throwing cans of
beer up in the air and watch him explode? No, Chad, no
Bill, it was a firearm. It was a firearm. Oh so oh
damn? Okay? And police say, he was really really drunk, really
drunk, and he was agitated by the activities generated by the parade attendees.
Now wait a minute, Hold on a second. You went to a parade,
and hold on a second. The parades are surrounded by crowds, and
you're irritated by the crowd. So I told you there's not a lot of
details in the story. But what I'm thinking is this might be one of
those neighborhood Christmas parades, and so they might have just like paraded through the
neighborhood and people were probably like sitting on his lawn or like you know,
parking in front of his house. Probably didn't like that. Maybe kids were
running around in his yard. I don't know what it was, but whatever,
he was really agitated by the parade attendees. Fanithfully, faithfully, no
one was hurts, especially since there was so many children involved in the parade.
But the police, of course arrested Douglas, but they charged him with
six counts of aggravated assault with a firearm, reckless discharge of a firearm,
and using a firearm while under the influence of alcohol. So you're home,
my beener, and watch this is a drunk Florida man got agitated by a
Christmas parade. So once he started doing, you start shooting. I'm sorry,
it's what triggered him that I'm laughing at. I'm like, not the
outcome. But just remember, folks ring all the ten taking insurance group.
They'll cover you for a lot of things, but they will not cover you
for discharging a firearm into a Christmas parade. It's not part of it's not
part of their policy. He's like, you just get off my lawn,
even if it's a even if it's a home property insurance claim. Yeah,
you're not gonna win that one. But remember, if you're gonna use firearms
and alcohol, all always firearms first, then then alcohol. The PSA from
your friends here at What's on Tap Radio, that's your whole My beer and
watching says, all right, still to come speaking out crimes. Let's talk
about crimes against beer. All this so much more. We'll be right back.
Sometimes we write drink beer on our to do list. Just I feel
like we're accomplishing something. What's on Tap Radio continues with James Simpson and Chad
Pilbeam. We want to thank Superior Pest Control West Michigan for flooding our inbox
with stories each and every week. Proud sponsors of our research department, Superior
Pest Control. You can find them here in West Michigan at Superior Pest dot
Biz. That's Superior Pest dot Biz. The story you're about to see is
true. The name said been changed to protect the innocent. They are they
have been. Now we're gonna go ahead and throw some people under the bus.
Maybe maybe one of them anyway, we uh welcome back to What's on
TAPA Radio where we believe in justice for beer and uh yes, that's why
we have that segment. Hold my beer and watch this spotlighting drunk criminals,
reminding you it's a public service announcement. And thank you again bringing all the
ten Hacen Insurance of West Michigan right here. I want to thank our buddy
John Klunder for helping us out with this that segment, reminding you what not
to do. You don't ever want to be spotlighted on that. Now we
move to a subject that I was I am very passionate about. I'm all
about justice for beer drinkers. James's beer. He's got his rob on,
he has a gavel in his hand. It's all right. Actually on this
one, I got, I got the cuffs. I'm like, I'm like
Roscoe Pico Trade. I'm gonna cufew and stuff. That's right, Man,
I just dated myself. Everybody who's twenty something years old goes, who is
he talking about? Just man? Just want to go peek coat train maybe
all the time? Man bow, Yeah, not a very good sheriff.
I actually I'm a little more competent on that. But I'm gonna go ahead
and I'm gonna bring. I'm gonna bring a case. I'm gonna be like
Harvey Spector from Suits. I'm gonna bring and I never lose a case.
You know. That's that's my deal. All right. There's another pop culture
reference. I got the USA Network televison show. But I digressed. There
was a time here, James, in the US, when all beer was
served exactly the same, and that was cold, and that's all that mattered.
It didn't matter. Now, maybe you went to one of those fancy
places and it had a footed Pilsner glass, but for the most part in
that day and age, it was either served in a frosted mug or a
maybe a highball glass, you know, a water glass. Nobody paid attention
to born on dates because they didn't exist or best buy dates, and the
only thing you had to concern yourself with was whether or not from a legal
standpoint, were you in a state that allowed you to drink at nineteen or
did you have to be twenty one? When did born on dates come about?
Born on dates? I want to say it was late nineties, early
two thousands. Okay, yeah, I didn't look that one up, but
I know that somewhere in the early nineteen nineties micro brewery started to give us
exposure to different styles and flavors, and then they started serving beers in different
glasswhere and we started to say, whoa why is this? We started to
learn about tradition and proper service and proper flavor and standards and beer clean glasses,
which met is more than just a clean glass. I mean, we
started to elevate this and we held to these standards and lived up to them.
And then ever since then, you know, we had kind of the
big boom of the micro brewery movement. And since then, though, our
attention to detail has slipped. And I've seen this firsthand, and I'm calling
out the crimes against beer because lawlessness is everywhere, and I am calling for
vigil anti justice. Ladies and gentlemen, you listen to this program, I
am counting on you to step up, take the law in your own hands,
and fight back. When you go out drinking at your favorite tap room,
or maybe you're visiting it a new tap room, or you're at a
beer bar, demand justice for you and the beer. So I have identified
the high crimes and misdemeanors being committed out there in the beer community. So,
James, I'm gonna go ahead and give you my list of crimes being
committed against beer. First, the misdemeanors. These are the minor infractions which
can be corrected. Maybe you have a parole officer, Maybe you go to
a couple of meet do a little community service, and you can be you
can be have this expunged from your record. But this one here, when
we talk about beer served in the wrong glass, I don't consider that a
misdemeanor. But there are certain beers that you never serve in certain glasses.
For example, I would never serve a barley wine in a twenty four ounce
mug. I would never see tomorrow. I would not serve a German pilsner
in a sniffer. It just doesn't happen. But using the wrong glass and
not caring, that's the problem. It's just that, yeah, we don't
care as long as it comes to you and you can drink it. Well.
If that's the case, serve it in a paper cup. It's a
misdemeanor. We can care about wine serving morlow and the proper glass. You
should care about beer being poor in the proper glass. Exactly. Here's another
misdemeanor. Not rotating your stock. Now, not rotating your stock, that
and of itself not a problem because you may not get old beer. But
eventually the beer getting pushed to the back is getting older and older and older,
and that leads to a felony, which we will talk about later.
So that right there, not rotating your stock, it does happen because people
get lazy and they think people don't care and can't taste the difference. But
that's not true. This one here really drives me nuts. Another mistermeir,
not putting your dates on beer. Ladies and gentlemen. It's twenty twenty four.
It is time to start putting dates on your beer. I don't care
how you do it. Put it on your beer when you package them up.
You've got to let people know what it is. Is this a package
date or is this a brew date? What do we see? No,
that's the thing. Put some date on there. In fact, I like
the brute on date. It was brewed on this date. Then I get
to the side. Don't give me your best by date. Don't give me
your expiration day, give me your give me the date you brewed it that
one there. Also, this goes for the boxes too, Like they'll put
it on the cans, but then they'll package them in a six pack box,
and then they don't put it on the box, so then you gonna
break open the box to read the can. I don't think so. Now,
yeah, miss demeror put on the box. Yeah, yeah. Another
misdemeanor here, having domestics on your menu. Now, I know what domestics
means. When you put domestics on your menu, it means cheap, mass
produced light beer. But Sierra Nevada palel Brood in the US, that's domestic
and you're not gonna give me a four dollars and fifty cent pint of that.
I'm sorry. It's just not gonna happen, all right. So those
are some of the misdemeanors. Let's move on to the felonies. Dirty tap
lines. Oh my god, I I went to a bar in New Orleans,
yep, and I ordered a a Beta Amber and the beer came out
like it tastes like batteries exact, see exactly. And the thing is is,
we used to insist on cleaning tap lines every two weeks, no matter
what, nobody ever. And then they are like two weeks. We can
push it to three. We can do it every month. Eh. Eh.
We don't have to change even though we change the kegs, we don't
have to clean it. Listen. Ah, that's a felony right there.
Also line beer. This one here. Now, if you're not familiar with
this one, show up when a brewery opens or a tap room or a
bar and say, hey, can I get a sample of something? And
when they haven't flushed the lines and pulled the little that one ounce of line
beer out and you get that as your sample. Oh, it tastes terrible.
That's a felony that right there. You can't do that. Frozen beer
glasses. I don't care if you're serving the cheapest, mass produced light lagger
frozen beer glasses. Kill the beer felony right there, bringing up on charges
right now, dirty beer glasses. Now this one here, I have seen
this firsthand. Somebody grabs a glass. It literally takes two to three seconds
to inspect the glass before you put it under the tap. But even after
you put it on the tap, I've seen them look at it, see
that it's dirty, and still serve it. I feel like this is the
most common crime at a bar. It is it is so bad or this
one here, and I'm not gonna say, I'm not going to throw the
brewery under the bus, but it's a Texas brewery that's out of business for
a good reason. Okay, But this one here, this is a felony.
Okay, if you refuse to throw throw away a beer that doesn't meet
your standard, I'm sorry. This one brewery made an imperial butterscotch heff of
ison. They marketed it as an imperial butterscotch hef of ison. I'm sorry,
hef nine point seven percent, No way imperial, no butterscotch off flavor.
Dump it. This was not your creativity. You screwed up. Dump
it down the drain and finally selling out of date beer. And I hold
lots of people responsible for this, but the the most, the most culpable
in this is the person at the beer store because they don't they'll take a
feather duster and just dust it off and let it go because they know nobody's
gonna bring it back. Hey, if we can sell it and make a
buck, customers aren't gonna care enough to complain. Now. The only question
I have is is how do we get restitution? But these are the biggest
crimes against beer and ladies and gentlemen. I'm asking you don't stand for it.
You fight back. Check the dates, demand fresh beer, demand clean
beer glasses, and do not take line beer or bad beer from dirty taps.
Amen, well said Chad. All right, let's take a break.
Let's come back and talk about Kelsey. Jason Kelsey that is, and why
people on Twitter are really outraged. All this is so much more. We'll
be right back. This is what's on tap Radio. All right, welcome
back to What's on Tap Radio. I know, just a moment ago,
Hi, Chad, the beer logic. I sound like angry guy, get
off my lawn. But I'm tired of people mistreating beer we have. We've
gone from building standards to ignoring them, and those are crimes against beer.
And Bill and I were talking about that during the break Harbor light. Bill,
who's in third mic stunt beer Liver, and he and I we had
to crack open another beer and it's a beer, one of my favorite ones,
that he's never had before, and it ties in really good with everything
we've talked about. An arresting embrace of malt in Beryl from Revolution Brewing Company,
Chicago, Illinois, straight jacket barley wine and aged in bourbon barrels.
Yeah, we're sticking with the high ABV, but that's because we got a
stunt beer liver coming in at fifteen percent. It is one of my favorite
barley wines and we're gonna keep this going again. Don't try this at home
without a stunt beer liver, So Bill, help yourself there. James,
your glass looks a little empty. It is indeed empty from WHOA slow down,
buddy, you're drinking na beer. Take it easy, pal. I'm
gonna continue that in a train because it is, in fact the last weekend
in dry January. But I still have so many inn a beers in my
fridge here at studios. So maybe I'll bring some more next week. But
yeah, my last week of dry January here on the show. We'll see.
Maybe I may continue on until I run out in a beers, but
the next week I'm bringing. I brought this brewery's oatmeal stout last week,
or maybe it was a week before, but I was really impressed with the
beer, and so I decided that to try another beer from this brewery.
And this is Bravis Brewing, and I'm not going their oatmeal Stout. I'm
actually going completely opposite with their Golden Ale, their Golden Light. And this
is a zero percent alcohol by volume. So let me go in openness.
Trink it slowly there, take it easy. Yeah, I'm gonna drink it
slow, slow, slow. Now. This is what I believe you said
last week. This brewery claims to be the United States the first craft brewery
in a craft brewery. Now, I can't confirm that. I don't know
who was first. I don't know if they were first or just what it
says in the yearbook, just what it says on the can, the light
crisp and biscuity. So let me go and take a taste of this.
Let me tell you what I taste here. Smells crispin clean James. Yeah,
very crisp and clean. I get some biscuit malt, sweetness, the
moment of clarity coming through through non alcoholic beings. Tasting this approachable brew tastes
much like one of those light beers that the big boys brew, but hard
to believe. This is in a in only sixty five calories. Again,
the Golden Light Bravest Brewing Company ours tasted tastes like a Have you ever had
the candied sugar coat coated almonds? I do? Those are so good?
Okay? Ours is an is a slightly almond coated piece of sugar because it
is sweet dipped in bourbon. Yeah, dipped in bourbon. I mean it
is, it is. It's there's a little bit of grain malt in there
that you can taste, but for the most part, it's bourbon. It's
brown sugar, it's caramel or toffee. No, it's just big boozy bra
It's yummy and completely opposite of the beer I'm bringing the Golden White Cristmas.
Wait, no, no, no, hold on a second, sold on,
you're drinking zero point zero we've got a fifteen percent fifteen divided by three
carry the one that's what's that four point five percent? Yeah, okay,
yeah, four point three three percent. Yeah. So we're all just taking
it easy. We're we're all just drinking session beers when we When you average
it out between all the livers, I feel I'm gonna be okay tonight.
Yeah you will? Yeah, all right, me too, Bill, me
too, Bill, me too. It's very sweet. I'm not I don't
like it as much as I like their oatmeal stout. But it's good.
It's good. I would I would drink another one. Anytime is a good
time for Bravis Braves Brewing Golden Light. All right. So, Jason Kelcey,
this guy is a national treasure. If you're tired of seeing Taylor Swift
and Brittany Mahomes embrace every time Kansas City scores a touchdown at the Chiefs game,
well, I think you're you're you got your antidote last week thanks to
one Jason Kelcey. Now, Jason Kelsey, he is not in the playoffs.
No, the Eagles were eliminated, right, So now he's rooting on
you know, he was rooting on his brother who plays for the Chefs,
the Chiefs, the Chefs. Yeah, sorry, he spelled Chiefs wrong.
So when Patrick Mahomes connected with his brother Travis for a touchdown, there was
Jason shirtless, puffing out his hairy barrel shaped body like a viking. Now
in the article it says le Bat's blue light. But I'm looking at I
don't think it was a little bats. I think it was a bud light.
It is because according to Twitter, it was a bud light. Now,
no one's mentioning anything about le Bat's blue. But according to the article
who wrote the article, they said he was pounding a Labat's blue. But
I'm gonna say fun fact. Le Bat blue is on tap in every deer
camp bar in Michigan, and if I see it, I buy it.
Really I have never I've never been a big fan of that beer. So
well, then i'll see you next winter, pal, get up here,
we're going. But anyways, at one point, I don't know if you
were watching the game or not, but he hopped out of the luxury box
to pound a beer with the crowd so much that people were loving it.
He picked up some fans, some little little little fans, so they can
show their signs to Taylor Swift. And it was get a little rowdy,
so much that Patrick Mahomes's dad had to come in there and and and bring
them back into the press or into the luxury box and hey, hey,
come on, come back in because he's getting roundy. And even he was
even hanging out at the Bill's Mafia tailgating. Yeah beer. Now, if
you don't know what the Bill's Mafia is, that's the tailgating spectacular. That's
the one tailgate I need to get to. That's on my bucket list.
In fact, people ask me you got something on your bucket list. I
want to drink Bill, drink Bill. I want to drink Bill with the
beer Mafia. No beer with the Bill's Mafia. Yeah, there are a
wild buns. And I think it looked like he was chugging beer out of
a bowling ball if I can see video, that's and then you gotta break
a table, and then you gotta light the table on fire, and then
you'll probably catch on fire. But meanwhile, you said, Kelsey, he's
bare chested, freezing cold weather. And then he picks up some little girl
and says, hey, Taylor, here's a fan yeah, here's fan.
Yeah, she had a sign so she can read it. And of course
people are taking pictures with him. But it was getting a little rowdy,
and so they had Patrick Mahomes's dad going hey, hey, hey, mister
Kelson, can you get back into the press box here or the luxury box.
But of course Twitter had to say something about it. They are not
happy with the way he was behaving because he's a football player. He should
be a role model. Even though I think he announced is a retirement of
did he I don't know. He may be retiring, he maybe not be
retiring. But the point is he's in his off season. Let him have
a good time. But people took to Twitter and they're not happy. All
the fans were happy with Kelsey's behavior, a few calling him out promoting He
was the fact that he was promoting alcoholism, wondering if drinking beer and celebrating
was ideal with kids watching. So One person wrote, Jason Kelsey is one
of the most disgusting men I've ever seen, a fat, harry drunk.
Who in the universe would find that attractive. One person responded, his very
smoking, hot wife. I want to respond to that. I want to
say Hey, lady, He'll see you at the gym. I see you
do there. One person took to Twitter and said, what a discussing endorsement
of alcoholism. This must be the final straw for CBS. My two year
old son saw this and immediately started chugging moonshine at screaming New News. Now
many think this was stage that Kelsey might have been, you know, maybe
a sponsorship deal with a bud light due to the brand ford manner, because
you could tell that he was drinking a bud light. I'm not sure why
the journalist saw that it was a little bat blue, but people thought maybe
it was a stage. But then people went to Twitter saying how much is
Jason Kelsey getting paid to make sure that his bud light can is facing out
as he is shirtless cheering on TV. Another one wrote I lost respect for
Jason Kelsey rocking that bud light. Another one wrote, Jason Kelsey drinking a
bud light at the Chiefs game was so predictable. I bet he was vaxed
too. Uh. Oh no, Jason Kelsey's drinking bud lights. One person
wrote, oh no, Jason Kelsey's drinking a bud light. That maggot cult
must be castling him at the moment. So a lot of people upset that,
uh Jason Kelcey out there pounding his chest drinking a bud light. But
other folks are upset the Swift. He's upset because he's upstaging Taylor Swift.
Yeah, because yeah, all the cameras around him and he's in full beast
mode and she's up there jumping around, cheering and everything else, like yeah,
we'll get back to you in a minute, because this is new,
and it's like, yeah, isn't it funny how the flash in the pan,
you know, kind of distracts from the you know, the trend,
and everyone's like, wait a minute. You know how long I worked to
build this image. I'm saying, if Swift, but what about me?
Jason Kelsey's retiring, he needs to be at every Chiefs game because I'll be
watching. That's at the at Harvard Light Brewing Company. Just for the record,
So oh, if you're a SWIFTYE and you're listening to the show right
now, that's uh yeah, yes, maybe I won't see you over there.
I'll meet you at Tantrick. Jason Kelsey totally upstage Taylor swift and the
Internet is not happy. And also they're not happy the fact he's promoting alcoholism.
But hey, I'm saying, hey, you you do you? All

a show supporting his brother at the Bill's game. You know, he jumps
out of the luxury box, takes his shirt off, starts pounding his chest
drinking a butt light and I saw this meme. It made me laugh.
It says Jason Kelsey, rips his shirt off, chucks a beer on national
TV, and everyone calls him a legend. But when I do it on
a Tuesday night at Applebee's, I'm an alcoholic. You're the subject to watch.

right, so James, I got I gotta bring this up. I'm old
enough to remember when cors Light was not the official beer sponsor of the NFL,
and then they were the official beer sponsor of the NFL, and then
they weren't again. Well, it turns out that they're doing a television commercial
for the Super Bowl this year, and they're gonna offer fans five hundred dollars
in talent fees to be part of their commercial. Like, what hey,
sign me up, I'm in. I want to be in a commercial.
I am too. Yeah, that's right. Cors Light is announcing the return
of the Chill Train. You may remember when the train was speeding by and
turning every town. It's like every town was sitting around. They're like,
Oh, we're hot, we're thirsty, we're dry. All of a sudden,
the Chill Train just and all of a sudden, magically, everybody had
a corse Light in their hand. Everything chilled out and everybody was smiling.
They had the Love Trained song playing right, which I found funny because people
would be sweating outside in the tank top or shirtless, and then the train
would go through and everything would be iced over. And trust me, I
live in Michigan and when it instantly ice is over and gets cold like that,
it doesn't not refreshing. It sucks, but it does. Chad.
Yeah, I know. Well, this is now a CG computer generated opportunity
to join yet the CGI train is going to roll through and you can upload
your photo and be part of the experience and get one of the one hundred
available seats, and if you are picked, you will be on the CGI
computer Generated Image train featuring the commercial that will speed through North America at a
blistering nine hundred miles an hour that according to the press release. And if
you can't catch a glimpse of yourself flying by it nine hundred miles an hour,
there'll be a slow motion version of it because it's only a thirty second
commercial and there are only one hundred seats and if you manage to get on
there, you'll have to sign a waiver, but they'll give you five hundred
bucks and some swag. That's a pretty cool deal. Bringing the train back
a primitive mug as well. Yeah, they give you some swag five hundred
bucks. They're bringing the train back people all the world. If you're one
of the one hundred, you'll be on the love train. Love train,
all right, I just made that up. You get free beer, Well,
I don't think they can give you free beer legally. They can give
you a cooping A cooping, Yeah, cooping. That's like coupon, yeah,
or cube, but they don't say cooping. But you have bragging rights?
And hey, were you a super Bowl commercial? Were you? Thank
you? I was on? I was? I was. I was in
a super Bowl commercial? Were you in a Super Bowl? Oh you weren't?
Oh I was? Oh I was? You weren't? I was bragging
rights. I'm just saying you could be in a Super Bowl commercial. I
know you could. All Right, some stories to get to, Uh,
I've been teasing this. I gotta talk about Anahaja Bush name the officials beer
sponsor of what Well. On January fourth, the nation's leading brew or,
Anheiser Busch, had a huge press conference where everyone came out for it and
announced everybody was on pensanula. What's gonna be? What's gonna be? They
are now the national marketer sponsor a PBR, which does not stand for past
Blue Ribbon Professional bull Riders Professional bull Riders and PBR is the world's premier bull
riding organization. More than five hundred bull riders compete in more than two hundred
events annually and it's a big deal with international circuits in Australia, Brazil,
Canada, and Mexico. The new multi year deal celebrates the Writers, Teams
and Fans, one of the fastest growing athletic competitions in the US, and
the new deal spans PBR's premier individual competition with Teams League along with the sport's
top expansion tours, making antoniser Bush one of the PBR's largest and most impactful
brand partners, and their partnership will primarily focus on big clob Ultra saying that
right, the nation's second largest beer brands. So now anhyser Busch named the
official beer sponsor of PBR and by the way, that yeah right, and
another one of aneser Busch's brands they partner with somebody else last year and it
didn't quite go as planned. So internally I heard Anheuser Busch is calling this
build back better. No I just made that. I totally made that up.
I'm sorry I just did. But anyway, James, we got ad
minute to talk about pizza. Well, let's talk about pizza. Dave Barry
actually said, without question, the greatest invention in history of mankind is beer.
I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the
wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza. Beer for the wind.
I'm telling you, beer for the wind, Beer and pizza. That's that's
pretty much a given right. You got your beer. I would think so.
But I came across this, and who knew there was such a thing.
But it is Friday night, the night for peace for your family?
You dozza used to be? But if so, line up. That's the
average American thing. Pizza Hut did an annual pizza report and found that Friday
is the most popular day of the week to order. And so here are
some other stats I came across for some pizza eating habits, including the worst
hoppings to try. The average person has pizza three times a month and eats
a total of eight slices. Do you eat a total of eight slices in
one sitting? No? Eight slices the sitting or eight slices a month.
That's what it says. The average person three times a month and eats a
total of eight slices. So I'm guessing, so there's eight over three,
eight over three, Okay, because I'm like, man, that's a lot
of I would say I eateate over that's a lot of slices of pizza.
The top eating pizza states North Dakota, New York, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
Because it's too damn cold, nobody wants to go out, they want
delivery. Thin crust is now our favorite type, getting twenty eight percent of
the vote. Stuff crust pizzas next with twenty and thick crust at fourteen percent.
The most popular thing to dip it in isch, followed by garlic sauce.
Hot sauce is a distant third, and they didn't actually include marinara as
an option, so I thought that was a little weird. H New York
Style because it has marin ea on the pizza. Yeah, all right.
New York Style is the most popular type of pizza, followed by Chicago style.
Only three states prefer something else. Detroit Style in Michigan, Saint Louis
Style in Missouri and people in California supposedly prefer California style pizza with non traditional
toppings like avocado and arugula. The most frequent order topping still pepperoni, which
is something that it's always on pizza. But what's something that never is allowed
on pizza? The top answer fish beats, blueberries, plums, and kiwi
and put those on. Hey, people they order, let me get a
fish, blueberries and plums and some kiwi. And last, people who don't
drink beer with their pizza, they drink I don't know, like a prune
smoothie. It's true. And only four think pizza flavored cocktail sounds like something
they would try, but do not try the pizza flavored beer from Martin Els.
So that America loves Friday Nights with pizza. Mama Me a Pizza Beer.
I actually have the bottle right outside the studio hanging up. I swear
Mama Me a Pizza Beer rated a zero point zero on rate. Dear,
it was one of the worst beers ever made with a regano and basil.
It was absolute trash. All right, we gotta get out of here,
Chad. I want to thank our sponsors that being Tantric Brewing Superior pests,
Control being a logic conference and events. We know that Tenac Insurance grew up
in the backyard grill keeping our lights on. Thank you Harbor Light Bill.
Harbor Light Brewing Company of course casts braining. So for mister Bill Logic Chad,
he'll be I'm Beer Beer James saying thanks for checking out what's on Tap
Radio. We hope you enjoyed it. We hope you would joyed it for
another actual time Redo show next week. Now go get yourself with pizza. Cheers O
