Speaker 3: We're going first over here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, Chad used the plural. I did yeah assignment
Speaker 1: this week when when he come back.
Speaker 3: We sifted now, no, no, no, We sifted through hundreds of applications.
Speaker 3: We did a strenuous process of interviews and uh physical
Speaker 3: tasks and we have a stunt beer liver in studio.
Speaker 3: After all of that, you know, the interviews and background checks,
Speaker 3: we got a social Security number. Xavier's in studio and
Speaker 3: he's gonna be just sitting back and helping me make
Speaker 3: sure that we knock out these cans of beer. And uh,
Speaker 3: this particular one comes to us from my wife. No,
Speaker 3: she did not brew this beer, but it does come
Speaker 3: from Stonefaced Brewery in New Hampshire. She was she was
Speaker 3: on assignment. I said, woman, go pick up No, I
Speaker 3: didn't say that, I said honey, please. I said, honey,
Speaker 3: please go picked up some beer from this brewery. And
Speaker 3: the reason I wanted her to go pick up beer
Speaker 3: from this brewery, the Stoneface in New Hampshire, is because
Speaker 3: they had a beer that I wanted her to pick up.
Speaker 3: Unsuccessful in picking it up, but we got this one here.
Speaker 3: This is the Broove Dark Lagger, the check style dark
Speaker 3: lager beer. But I looked up some of the tasting
Speaker 3: notes on it. I cheated a little bit and they
Speaker 3: indicated that they put some chocolate in it. So I'm
Speaker 3: gonna take a taste here, cheater. Well, it's more rich
Speaker 3: than what you would expect from a typical German dark
Speaker 3: style lagger. It has some additional flavors in there, making
Speaker 3: it a little bit sweeter. I am getting some chocolate
Speaker 3: notes on it. But it has a little bit of
Speaker 3: a actually, no, a lot a very dry finish, and
Speaker 3: I'm I'm digging it's it's a richer beer than what
Speaker 3: I would expect for Dark Lagger. It's more chocolatey than
Speaker 3: what I would expect for Dark laggerly check Dark Lagger.
Speaker 3: It doesn't have all of the roast I would expect
Speaker 3: a little bit sweeter. And that's We're kicking the things
Speaker 3: off with Stone Face Brewing Company, a five percent check
Speaker 3: style Dark Lagger with what says that right here featured
Speaker 3: Molt the Bohemian pillsner chocolate, wheat and car Yeah. Whatever, Well,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you very chocolatey. And that's what I'm

Speaker 1: Jack kicking is awesome.
Speaker 3: Love for those guys. Yeah, out there on the northwest
Speaker 3: side of Houston. And yeah, if you're looking for a
Speaker 3: beer out there in the oasis known as two ninety,
Speaker 3: you're driving along, yeah, swinging, telling what's on tap?
Speaker 1: Radio sent you, Yes, do that, but you kicked things
Speaker 1: off in the first segment with it was stone Age Brewing,
Speaker 1: Face Face, Stone Face Brewing.
Speaker 3: It's a doc log. It's called broove b r u V.
Speaker 3: And I don't know, it's warmed up a little bit more.
Speaker 3: I don't know why. Maybe it's just after you know,
Speaker 3: quite a few SIPs, chocolate's died down a little bit.
Speaker 3: I don't know if they put chocolate in there or not.
Speaker 3: I told you I cheated. I looked at the tasting notes.
Speaker 3: But overall, I mean it's a nice beer. It's it's
Speaker 3: super dry finishes, really crazy sp and dry on. I
Speaker 3: mean it makes you want another sip, Like you take
Speaker 3: a sip, your tongue is dry. I want another. And
Speaker 3: then that's a brewmaster's secret to keep you drinking beer.
Speaker 3: But yeah, very chocolated. I'm not getting not getting a
Speaker 3: lot of coffee notes or dry roast notes or yeah,
Speaker 3: it's really just you know, you kind of look for
Speaker 3: some of those burnt notes in there, like like like
Speaker 3: a coffee or black coffee, and I'm not getting it.
Speaker 3: It's chocolated to me. I don't know. I got the
Speaker 3: X man in here, Xavier, and he's not on third Mic.
Speaker 3: He's just stunt beer living, hanging out, hanging out, and
Speaker 3: he's helping me because we're going to crack up in
Speaker 3: another beer in the next segment. And uh, in order
Speaker 3: for us to be able to talk about that, I
Speaker 3: need to have a stunt beer liver, gotcha? So I don't.
Speaker 3: I do not do all my own stunts. So well,
Speaker 3: we do, all right, James.
Speaker 1: We do encourage drinking responsibly on the show. So Chad
Speaker 1: is demonstrating that as we speak. So I told Chad
Speaker 1: in the first segment that I did not bring an
Speaker 1: october Fest to this show. This week, you lied, I
Speaker 1: did not. I did not bring in october Fest because
Speaker 1: I brought a Marchtoberfest. See it says right there on
Speaker 1: the cam for Galason Island Brewing Company four point five
Speaker 1: percent ABV Island Brewed Marchtoberfest. Does that say Octoberfest? Chad?
Speaker 3: Does it? Taste like it was brewed in April.
Speaker 1: It's in March Stoverfest, in March stoverfest Overfest.
Speaker 3: Does it take? But I want to know because it
Speaker 3: because it was probably brewed in March, which is Marsin,
Speaker 3: which is in German, which is when the original was
Speaker 3: it was brewed. Then you store it in the.
Speaker 1: World Cold Cup for the mars In category.
Speaker 3: I see it's on the can, all right, I got it, all.
Speaker 1: Right, all right? So here's the here's the secret. If
Speaker 1: I've talked about it a couple of times, but I'll
Speaker 1: bring it up again. So Galason Island Brewing has a
Speaker 1: great October Fest and they wanted to send it off
Speaker 1: to World Beer Cup to be judged. But World Beer
Speaker 1: Cup is in May, so they didn't want to send
Speaker 1: old beer to the World Beer Cup judges. They wanted
Speaker 1: to send fresh beer. So they brewed this beer in March.
Speaker 1: And they know that customers don't drink Octoberfests outside of
Speaker 1: its season. I don't know why. It's perfectly okay to
Speaker 1: drink october Fest in November and December and January, but
Speaker 1: customers think for some reason, it's not october Fest on it,
Speaker 1: and it's not October, the beer's expired and they knew that,
Speaker 1: so they just rebranded it, calling it March Soberfest. And
Speaker 1: so they sent it off the World Beer Cup and
Speaker 1: they won a gold for their marsin category in the
Speaker 1: March for their March tber Fest.
Speaker 3: Yes, this is genius marketing right there. I don't know
Speaker 3: what else was thinking. I mean, you call you, yeah,
Speaker 3: if you you know what here, I'm just gonna say this.
Speaker 3: Whenever somebody makes a summer pills near beer, we all
Speaker 3: know summer beers as soon as September first hits. Nobody
Speaker 3: drink summer beers. Amen, right, yeah, so make us September
Speaker 3: pills and it'll sell.
Speaker 1: It's funny how consumers just they're so put off by
Speaker 1: the word October or Christmas or anything that's outside of
Speaker 1: its season.
Speaker 3: You want to you want to dig into the archives.
Speaker 3: We've been on the show or been on the air
Speaker 3: for a long time. You want to dig into the
Speaker 3: archives and remind everybody what, oh my goodness, what's the
Speaker 3: gentleman's name from San Antonio said about Scott Metzger. Scott Metzger,
Speaker 3: there is a name drop, right.
Speaker 1: I interviewed him once and I asked him, why do
Speaker 1: you think customers don't drink Octoberfest and November? What is
Speaker 1: it about. It's expecting him to say, oh, well, let's
Speaker 1: got the October on it. That's maybe. No, he said, well,
Speaker 1: probably because they are convinced that once November first comes around,
Speaker 1: all cans of Octoberfest turned into cans of AIDS. True.
Speaker 1: Story's all right, we gotta do this chat.
Speaker 3: Now, the official What's on Tap Radio fun fact of
Speaker 3: the week, brought to you by Who's ever checked Clear?
Speaker 2: This week?
Speaker 1: And I tell that story now and people are They
Speaker 1: just look at me like what?
Speaker 3: No, he really did say that. In fact, I feel
Speaker 3: like we should have ran the disclaimer, like, you know,
Speaker 3: the views expressed.
Speaker 1: Well, no, I mean this is an interview. This is
Speaker 1: what he told me. When I asked Hilm the question.
Speaker 3: It was the craziest thing. I know. I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 3: He just said that. We're like, yeah, did he really
Speaker 3: just say that? The words just come out?
Speaker 1: And I think I ran into the sound bite for
Speaker 1: a while too. This is god years and years and
Speaker 1: years ago.
Speaker 3: Yep, all right, well we all know that that's not true. No,
Speaker 3: it's definitely not true. Feel free to drink your October
Speaker 3: refestm whenever you want, you can share a toilet seat,
Speaker 3: you can do whatever you want. You're not going to
Speaker 3: contract that. That virus is just not going to happen.
Speaker 3: All right, anyway, moving on beyond that. But by the way,
Speaker 3: speaking of which, since that was a lie, I figured
Speaker 3: let's talk politics because we had an election coming up,
Speaker 3: and well.
Speaker 1: Politicians, let's just make some people upset.
Speaker 3: Well yeah, right, but what do all politicians have in common?
Speaker 1: Lobbyist?
Speaker 3: Right exactly. They're all liars, right, yeah, that's right, they're liars.
Speaker 3: They make campaign promises they can't keep. I mean, I
Speaker 3: mean they said they were gonna.
Speaker 1: I will find uh and I will cure cancer.
Speaker 3: Ye right, well no, that was that was what it
Speaker 3: was like, We're gonna we're gonna launch a war on
Speaker 3: poverty and we're gonna end poverty. Well that didn't happen.
Speaker 3: You know, read my lips. No new taxes on. We're
Speaker 3: gonna forgive your college loans. If you like your doctor,
Speaker 3: you can keep your doctor. We're gonna build a wall
Speaker 3: in Mexico, is gonna pay Okay, never mind that none
Speaker 3: of these things happen. They don't come true. So how
Speaker 3: do we keep electing these people and putting them up
Speaker 3: for vote. I don't understand it. We know they're full
Speaker 3: of crap, and yet these are the best choices we have.
Speaker 1: Choice and I have the only choices we have. And
Speaker 1: it's sad.
Speaker 3: I know, I know, so you official What's on Tap
Speaker 3: Radio fun fact of the Week. I went into the
Speaker 3: archives of elections to find out were they liars back
Speaker 3: then winning elections? Is that how they want elections? And
Speaker 3: it turns out that is not the case. No, they
Speaker 3: actually used beer to win elections. And you're gonna say, yeah, right, okay, whatever,
Speaker 3: so they drank some beer and whatever. No, I'm telling
Speaker 3: you this was an actual strategy for winning elections. And
Speaker 3: if you don't believe me, I'm gonna prove it with
Speaker 3: the official What's on Tap Radio fun Factor of the week. Yeah,
Speaker 3: what if you could win an election? Think about this,
Speaker 3: not on your character, not on your principles or your competence,
Speaker 3: but on your ability to get somebody drunk. How's that
Speaker 3: for a campaign promise?
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm listening.
Speaker 3: I know you are right, I know. Yeah, campaign promises
Speaker 3: forget them. We've got alcohol. I'll vote for that guy.
Speaker 3: Turns out it was not an uncommon practice, and it
Speaker 3: was called swilling the planters with bumbo. James, you're from
Speaker 3: you like gumbo?
Speaker 1: I do love gumbo. My son, my son loves gumbo.
Speaker 3: I love you some gumbo. Well this is bumbo, which
Speaker 3: was a rum based and they didn't just serve rum.
Speaker 3: They had rum, they had cider, they had whiskey, they
Speaker 3: had wine, and of course they had beer. And if
Speaker 3: you wanted to buy votes back in colonial times, that's
Speaker 3: what you did. Don't believe me. Ask twenty four year
Speaker 3: old George Washington who ran for the first time for
Speaker 3: the Virginia House Oh yeah, of Burgess and lost the election.
Speaker 3: Why because he did not serve enough alcohol to his voters.
Speaker 3: He was he lost an election to an a less
Speaker 3: principled individual. And the next year or two years later,
Speaker 3: he came back and he provided you're ready for this,
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty four gallons of rum, punch, cider,
Speaker 3: and beer and won his first election. And this was
Speaker 3: a practice that continued on throughout colonial times and even
Speaker 3: into the eighteen hundreds, where the candidate who had the
Speaker 3: biggest bash got the most votes. So your fish, So
Speaker 3: what's on Tap Radio Fun Fact of the week is
Speaker 3: don't trust those campaign promises from those liars out there.
Speaker 3: Just ask who's throwing the biggest party, because they've been
Speaker 3: doing it since the colonial times, swilling the planters with bumbo,

Speaker 3: you can't, so you're in the muck and you're trying
Speaker 3: to pull up and the dang thing won't let go
Speaker 3: of you. Yeah, You're you're in trouble. And I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about it, but I can tell
Speaker 3: you that this is a four point six percent logger
Speaker 3: and it's from Fossil Cove Brewing Company. We'll see who
Speaker 3: I can find out in Fantville, Arkansas and.
Speaker 1: More Arkansas beers.
Speaker 3: It's it's a bizarre label too. It's it makes a
Speaker 3: catfish look like an alien, like a I mean, it
Speaker 3: looks like a monster, and it's kind of frightening. But
Speaker 3: the beer, they describe it as good cold beer. So
Speaker 3: was it taste like cold?
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's all you have to say. Sometimes it's just
Speaker 1: it's cold. It's all I got.
Speaker 3: Also, also not a huge fan of this one. It's
Speaker 3: it's pretty, it's crisp, it's light bodied, but getting I
Speaker 3: don't know if it's the hop that they used in
Speaker 3: it or what, but it's just not to my taste.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a bad beer, it's just not
Speaker 3: to my taste.
Speaker 1: So we know what I'm joining over here. I got
Speaker 1: the Marchtoberfest from galason Island Brewing and it notes it's haffee.
Speaker 1: It's got almost like like a cookie taste to it,
Speaker 1: very light, so I wanna assume it's a fest beer.
Speaker 1: Doesn't actually stay it on the can, but I could
Speaker 1: be wrong, But looking at it's a four point five
Speaker 1: percent alcohol by volume. I will have to tell you,
Speaker 1: guys disclaimer that the Marktoberfest is a tap room exclusive
Speaker 1: that you can't get out at your.
Speaker 3: Beer Stars of course.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I want to thank our good friend Leo over
Speaker 1: the Texas Beer Experience and works for Galaxon Island Brewing
Speaker 1: as well, met up with me and he donated some
Speaker 1: of the beer for me. To talk about on the show,
Speaker 1: and I did.
Speaker 3: That's good people.
Speaker 1: I did some TV with it as well. But I'm
Speaker 1: just a big fan of the beer. It's so good
Speaker 1: and it won a World Beer Cup gold for obvious
Speaker 1: reason because it's amazing.
Speaker 3: And speaking of amazing, I have a stunt beer liver
Speaker 3: and I'm going to give him all of this. I
Speaker 3: just don't like the hot profile on this. It may
Speaker 3: end up we may be sharing it with the Yard,
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying it's bad, just saying it's not
Speaker 3: my flavor profile.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: The hop that's used in this, whatever it is, it
Speaker 3: doesn't say, but it has a very herbaceous, herbal, rustic,
Speaker 3: just kind of flavor to it, and I'm it's well made.
Speaker 3: I just don't like the particular hop.
Speaker 1: Well, you don't like every beer you drink, No, you don't,
Speaker 1: you know you don't.
Speaker 3: But you know, what if what if you're a kid?
Speaker 3: I mean kid? Does a kid? Does a child have
Speaker 3: a discerning palette?
Speaker 1: I guess when it comes to root beer it does.
Speaker 1: Or you're hanging out at a college football game, do
Speaker 1: you see this story, Chad?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there's this coross Dude. I set you up so.
Speaker 1: This, this story is all over social. I saw this
Speaker 1: video on TikTok, and of course it came across our desk.
Speaker 1: But there's a video from the Longhorn game when they're
Speaker 1: playing the Louisiana tex As Longhorns. Yes, and this is
Speaker 1: where Chad's gonna tell me Louisiana Monroe Warhawks. And there's
Speaker 1: this video going viral of a toddler seemingly chugging a
Speaker 1: beer in the stands. So fans gathered last weekend to
Speaker 1: witness Texas quarterback Arch Manning to make his first college
Speaker 1: football start. Did quite well, and that is expected all
Speaker 1: Longhorns from the get go, winning fifty one to three.
Speaker 1: There's a blowout and the victory. This a little do
Speaker 1: a little sports update for those you know checking out
Speaker 1: the sports h Manny completed fifteen of twenty nine passes
Speaker 1: for two hundred and fifty eight yards, two touchdowns and
Speaker 1: two interceptions. However, the big spotlight of the whole game
Speaker 1: was shifted off the field when a post went on
Speaker 1: social of a toddler chugging what appeared to be a
Speaker 1: michelob ultra. And there's no way to be certain what
Speaker 1: the can was because it looks like there's a cooozy
Speaker 1: on it, but looking at it, there is if you
Speaker 1: looked at a Michelobultu, it's got like a red strip
Speaker 1: that goes up and it's blue. And we're not certain,
Speaker 1: but a bisoner recorded the video informed the mom, Hey,
Speaker 1: excuse me that are ma'am. You're you're toddler. They're uh
Speaker 1: sucking back on your on your beer. Apparently the mom
Speaker 1: was preoccupied with something else, yeah, to notice what was happening.
Speaker 1: But the little girl, she must have looked she was
Speaker 1: maybe three to four years old, and she's just picking
Speaker 1: this up, double fisting it. But it looks like it
Speaker 1: has a cooozy on it, so it's hard to identify
Speaker 1: what it is. It may some people are thinking it
Speaker 1: was a pepsi can, but we don't know.
Speaker 3: Who is a pepsi can in a sports stadium.
Speaker 5: Ibody, nobody, but whoeverbody, whoever's todder this folks got all
Speaker 5: those deals that taller was enjoying it because sip after
Speaker 5: sip after sip after sip.
Speaker 1: It was interesting because the lady who's recording this and
Speaker 1: putting on her TikTok was like, not the first sip, Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: little kid. She was like, oh, this is nice. Let
Speaker 1: me film this real quick and then I'll form the mother.
Speaker 3: She let the moms safety second.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she let the toddler drink about four or five
Speaker 1: cists before she informed the mom. Hey, by the way,
Speaker 1: your toddler's over here.
Speaker 3: And get a million likes with this video. Now make
Speaker 3: your kids stop.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 1: Some of comments on social obviously never disappoint one. One
Speaker 1: person on social road. Finally a kid not using an
Speaker 1: iPad another road.
Speaker 3: I thought that was that addicted to the technology. Nice
Speaker 3: one rote.
Speaker 1: I thought it was a pepsi at first. That mom
Speaker 1: is definitely distracted. So a few people are out there reaching.
Speaker 1: But yeah, Todler appears to chuck beer at a college
Speaker 1: football game and a viral post so.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay, well how about this all right?
Speaker 1: No word whether or I'm Tyler drove home?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's it was in Texas. Yeah, And they
Speaker 3: don't let you drive underage, but you can drink underage
Speaker 3: if your parents purchase it and provide it for you.
Speaker 3: That's a that's a that's a that's a weird law
Speaker 3: in Texas. Now the establishments can they they can put
Speaker 3: up restrictions that prevent you from having to do that,
Speaker 3: But no word on whether it's posted in the stadium that.
Speaker 1: How distracted are you that your toddler's And it's not
Speaker 1: like the toddler just picked it up and took a
Speaker 1: sip of it. No, the todler was like the video
Speaker 1: is about thirty seconds long, and the tiller's just sucking
Speaker 1: it back and then mom. And it's hard to tell
Speaker 1: in a in a video who's the mom. There's a
Speaker 1: couple of ladies sitting next to the child, so it's
Speaker 1: hard to identify which ones the mom, but clearly both
Speaker 1: of them are really really focused on the game and
Speaker 1: not focused on the child.
Speaker 3: That's just I don't understand why, because I mean, the
Speaker 3: game was a blowout, but maybe maybe it was this.
Speaker 3: Maybe they figured out it's like, you know, the kids
Speaker 3: got to eat, and with the price of formula these days,
Speaker 3: they figure stadium beers are cheaper and the kid will
Speaker 3: shut up, he'll take a nap. Maybe they wanted the
Speaker 3: kid to take a nap well and just have and
Speaker 3: just put it down and just go to sleep.
Speaker 1: Well, want user wrote or One commentator wrote on TikTok,
Speaker 1: well it's michaelol bulster's like water anyway. So no harm,
Speaker 1: no foul. But the thing is, as a kid, you
Speaker 1: remember getting a taste of a beer as a child,
Speaker 1: You're just like, oh, that's the most disgusting thing ever.
Speaker 3: No, I my dad would have slapped me so hard.
Speaker 1: I remember I had an uncle. I had an uncle.
Speaker 1: We're at a wedding, you know. The uncle's like, hey,
Speaker 1: hey man, he little Jamie took us inp of this,
Speaker 1: and I was like, eh, not this child, this kid
Speaker 1: is definitely having a good time.
Speaker 3: No, and he set you on the path to do
Speaker 3: this fine radio.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's looking at me like I get royalties, don't I?
Speaker 1: All right? Speaking of kids, Speaking of kids, we gotta
Speaker 1: take a break. But coming up, this is a controversial topic.
Speaker 1: Kids at breweries. Do they belong at breweries. There's one
Speaker 1: brewery out there that saying no more, no more kids
Speaker 1: at our brewery. And we'll explain why. Coming up. This
Speaker 1: is what's on tap radio. We'll be right back.
Speaker 2: Think. Oh you want we prefer to drink outside the box.
Speaker 2: You have good taste. Hey, what's on top? What's this
Speaker 2: is what's on tap radio?
Speaker 1: Right? Going? Good man, good beers at He's from me
Speaker 1: marchtober Fest Gallatin. I'm brewing Taploom Exclusive. Go out to
Speaker 1: the island, visit them. They have their October Fest coming
Speaker 1: up sometime in October. I think like the twelfth. I
Speaker 1: can't remember off the top of my head, but check
Speaker 1: out their social for all details. But get this beer
Speaker 1: if you're out there, you.
Speaker 3: Know what I love about having a stunt beer liver
Speaker 3: with me. I want to thank Xavier for, you know,
Speaker 3: being honest and truthful on his background check because after
Speaker 3: the urinary analysis and is you know, calling the three references,
Speaker 3: he was allowed to show up and when he did,
Speaker 3: we we made that all possible for him to come
Speaker 3: in studio. But he's helped me out. I've got this
Speaker 3: Fossil Cove Brewing Company. It's from Arkansas, uh Noodlean Italian pilsner,
Speaker 3: and there's just something about it that does not agree
Speaker 3: with my palette. And that's okay. You don't have to
Speaker 3: love every beer you have. Prior to that, we had
Speaker 3: the Stone Face Brewing Company Broove Dark Lagger and it
Speaker 3: was very, very chocolatey, but it tended to mellow out
Speaker 3: with the more SIPs I had, So maybe it was
Speaker 3: just my palette not being ready for it. But that's okay.
Speaker 3: You know we uh, you know, you're everybody's palette's a
Speaker 3: little bit different. And uh, I'm experimenting with some beers.
Speaker 3: And our good friend Bill harbor Light, Bill on assignment
Speaker 3: or vacation with his wife, who knows, left this beer
Speaker 3: here for us, and he thought he was going to
Speaker 3: get to try it. Well he was wrong, so that
Speaker 3: one happened.
Speaker 1: Fridge.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it either yeah, one of two things happens. Either
Speaker 3: I drink it or it goes in the crisper drawer
Speaker 3: and dies.
Speaker 1: Never be heard of again. That's all right. We're talking
Speaker 1: about kids. Last segment. We're talking about this viral video
Speaker 1: that's making the rounds. You know obviously why it's why viral.
Speaker 1: But yeah, this toddler, little girl wearing a little cute
Speaker 1: Texas Longhorn uniform.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the old hook them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just send back, sucking back on michelot Ultra. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I guess the mom.
Speaker 3: Kids will be.
Speaker 1: Kids, Yeah, kids will be kids exactly right.
Speaker 3: This is more like parents will be parents. And and
Speaker 3: the thing is is the kid was not out of sight.
Speaker 3: No child was with the parent. It's not like the
Speaker 3: it's not like the child was, you know, taking over
Speaker 3: to the student section with the parents and said here,
Speaker 3: you watch the game over here, Send the three year
Speaker 3: old over there, and we're gonna go back to our seats. No.
Speaker 1: No, the mom's sitting right there all right, preoccupied with
Speaker 1: something else.
Speaker 3: Well, just all right, maybe maybe I'm I can't believe
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say this, but maybe beer is the problem
Speaker 3: with parenting. I know I'm gonna go there, I am
Speaker 3: because there was beer and the kid was right on
Speaker 3: the on the parents' lap, not paying attention. Well, this
Speaker 3: takes us to a whole new level. We have talked
Speaker 3: about this almost too many times, but when you see
Speaker 3: what is happening here in this story, you may take
Speaker 3: a slightly different approach to me. Say, ah, you've talked
Speaker 3: about this before, but kids at brewery's.
Speaker 1: It's a controversial topic.
Speaker 3: It is, and we've talked about it, and so what
Speaker 3: else could you say? There's nothing else you can talk
Speaker 3: about with this? There's nothing. So why are we even
Speaker 3: talking about it? Well, because there's one brewery that's taking
Speaker 3: it to another level and they are calling themselves out.
Speaker 3: That's right, they're going kid unfriendly. Yeah, I love this.
Speaker 1: Not the first or the last brewer. We'll talk about
Speaker 1: doing this.
Speaker 3: No, no miners under the age of sixteen, No, get out,
Speaker 3: all right, you're not welcome here. Why. It's not because
Speaker 3: we're mean, it's not because we don't love kids. But
Speaker 3: a brewery in Cleveland, the Forest City, has identified a
Speaker 3: safety issue because parents aren't monitoring their children.
Speaker 1: See there, it is, there, it is. That's exactly what happens.
Speaker 1: I've seen it happen. I've seen it happen. Kids are
Speaker 1: they're running around. It's it gets out of control sometimes
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm not I have two kids, and
Speaker 1: I used to bring my kids to the brewery. My
Speaker 1: kids weren't running ound like a crazy bit.
Speaker 3: No, no, you're you were signing autographs and parenting.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what it was.
Speaker 3: But it's if you think about it, though, everybody wants
Speaker 3: to be family friendly, kid friendly, dog friendly, pet friendly,
Speaker 3: whatever else it is, and this particular brewery says, Nope,
Speaker 3: we're done. If you're under the age of sixteen, you
Speaker 3: are not welcome here because of the safety issues and
Speaker 3: parents not monitoring their children. And the owner even says
Speaker 3: he's like, look, I'm frustrated, but you know, kids are
Speaker 3: going to be kids, and that's it.
Speaker 1: Kids are going to be kids. But when you didn't
Speaker 1: when you're in a brewery and you know, people are
Speaker 1: sitting there and maybe they bring their own lawn chairs
Speaker 1: and so forth, and kids are throwing the football around
Speaker 1: and it's hitting people and maybe the.
Speaker 3: Yep yep, and they're knocking over beers and you know,
Speaker 3: you just paid you know, seven bucks for a pint.
Speaker 3: Somebody just knocks it over and that's a problem. And
Speaker 3: but I found it interesting he said kids will be kids,
Speaker 3: but the problem is parents aren't monitoring the kids.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it is.
Speaker 3: And you know, he didn't say he didn't come out
Speaker 3: and say parents will be parents, because if he had
Speaker 3: said that, well, those that's your customer base. You don't
Speaker 3: want to alienate that. Well, it was his customer base
Speaker 3: until he went kid unfriendly. And I think the he
Speaker 3: described it as and I got a great quote here
Speaker 3: that this is essentially the straw that broke the back,
Speaker 3: and he's like, that's it, we can't do this anymore.
Speaker 3: But he came in to use the restroom and there
Speaker 3: were five kids in there, throwing things around, breaking things.
Speaker 3: He says we've got to do something, and in addition
Speaker 3: to customers complaining, the staff started voicing concerns. But can
Speaker 3: you imagine this. It's like I just drank a couple
Speaker 3: of pints. I gotta go in. I got to break
Speaker 3: the seal. I gotta go do the deal, you know,
Speaker 3: whatever it is. And there's five kids in there, and
Speaker 3: they're all running around throwing wet paper towels and hanging
Speaker 3: on the door and clogging up the toilet and whatever.
Speaker 3: Is like, wait a minute, this no, no, First of all,
Speaker 3: there's no way all five of those kids had to
Speaker 3: go to the toilet at the same time. One of
Speaker 3: the time kids and wash your hands, all right. But
Speaker 3: Forest City now they're uh, they're ready. They're like, we're
Speaker 3: ready for all all customers. Come on out. And social media, Yeah,
Speaker 3: there's a few people that are excited about it. On Facebook. Yep, yeah,
Speaker 3: I love this. They wrote good finally road trip, Cleveland's
Speaker 3: now on the to do list. I like how it's
Speaker 3: like Cleveland was not on the to do list before,
Speaker 3: but now I gotta go. Like, who's going to Cleveland Wywy?
Speaker 3: Would we go there? They got a brewery with no kids,
Speaker 3: let's go. Why would another one? Why would kids? People
Speaker 3: bring their kids there anyway? That's there are just some
Speaker 3: places you don't take them, and this is one of them.
Speaker 3: Oh and by the way, teens don't belong there either.
Speaker 1: Well. I have to say, one of the most patient
Speaker 1: brewery I've ever seen when it comes to kids is
Speaker 1: No Label Brewing Company. You think, because they they are
Speaker 1: they friends, sunshine and and beerd that's what their motto was.
Speaker 1: And they have a playground for kids. But man, and
Speaker 1: they and they've gone through like no more chalk because
Speaker 1: remember the kids.
Speaker 3: I was just gonna say, bring up the chalk story.
Speaker 1: Kids were bringing chalk, They were bringing skateboards to the
Speaker 1: brewery and they're like, guys, look, we want your kids
Speaker 1: to have fun, but we can't do the chalk.
Speaker 3: Dot to do the skateboards. No more football stage, nothing
Speaker 3: that can fly, Nope. And then we have an entire
Speaker 3: play ground area over there for you go.
Speaker 1: There was a video they did. I can't remember how
Speaker 1: long ago it was, but it's like, it's no label
Speaker 1: kid Frilly. What it said. The title said, it's no
Speaker 1: label kid frilly and it pants to like five kids
Speaker 1: beating on the garage door.
Speaker 3: Just boot boo boo boo.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because there's like this garage door right next to
Speaker 1: the playground and the.
Speaker 3: Kids and they were just unmonitored kids and they were
Speaker 3: acting they had yeah, uh like security video. Kids just
Speaker 3: run around like guys, you need to watch your kids.
Speaker 1: Well what happened?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 1: The parents are just hanging out with their friends and
Speaker 1: the kids like, oh, we got run around, like sure,
Speaker 1: just get out of here, I don't just don't bother me.
Speaker 1: And then so they go off and they causing havoc
Speaker 1: and it started. They started the playground and they're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're kind of done with the playground, so let's go
Speaker 1: let's go h on a venture, explore it exploring and
Speaker 1: the next thing you know, you know, they're throwing dirt
Speaker 1: or sticks. And so it comes that same old debate.
Speaker 1: Kids don't belong to breweries. You're drinking, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: in the cord drive kids home too. Well, we don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe there's a designator driver. There's someone usually well sometimes
Speaker 1: not partaking in the alcohol who will drive. But that's
Speaker 1: the argument, you're gonna get in the cord drive quts home.
Speaker 1: So do you believe that kids should be banned at breweries.
Speaker 1: Let us know, we like to talk about it. At
Speaker 1: What's on Are you willing?
Speaker 3: I want to know would you call your would you
Speaker 3: be in favor of a brewery that labeled itself kid unfriendly?
Speaker 1: Well, you're gonna lose some clientele, that's for sure.
Speaker 3: But you're gonna lose some, but you may gain more.
Speaker 1: May gain more. All right, that's our number one of
Speaker 1: what's on tab Radio? Coming up next hour, we're gonna

Speaker 3: not throwing this in the yard. I will take one
Speaker 3: for the team. That's why you brought me here, That's
Speaker 3: why I was hired. He's like the third string quarterback.

Speaker 3: and he really does have a backward baseball cap on.
Speaker 3: He's been sitting on the bench studying film, you know,
Speaker 3: actually chatting with girls and whatever, doing his thing and
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he's like, you know, they might
Speaker 3: call me into the game, and we called him into

Speaker 3: He's like, I got it, man, I got it. Drink up, Rudy,
Speaker 3: you got one play. You gotta drink this Italian pilsner.
Speaker 3: And he's doing his part. Meanwhile, I reached into the
Speaker 3: crisper drawer because I put this.
Speaker 1: No, I did be a faithful chrisper drawer where beers
Speaker 1: go to die.
Speaker 3: Right, because you put it in there and you forget
Speaker 3: about them, and then you're like, wait a minute, what's
Speaker 3: in here? And you open the drawer and put them
Speaker 3: the beer.
Speaker 1: I was six years old in that crisper drawer.
Speaker 3: No, this one's not that bad. From Lagannita's brewing company.
Speaker 1: That beer a Christmer drawer, Loganita is amazing.
Speaker 3: Well, because I wanted to hold onto. I was hoping
Speaker 3: I forgot about it, but I didn't. This is a
Speaker 3: ten percent unrefined sugar, strong ale rude with whole cane
Speaker 3: sugar and amazing.
Speaker 1: I like Hulcanne sugar.
Speaker 3: I know this is this is good. I do like
Speaker 3: the label on it, though it cracks me up. But
Speaker 3: Unrefined Sugar Strong Ale from Laganita is a ten percent
Speaker 3: strong ale and I'm gonna open it up here, pour
Speaker 3: a little bit for myself, and I'm gonna pour a
Speaker 3: little bit over here for our esteemed stunt beer liver.
Speaker 3: And oh my goodness, the nose on this, it's a
Speaker 3: moll bomb. It is just malty and just smells rich.
Speaker 3: Let's take a test. Okay, it's very aggressively hopped to
Speaker 3: balance out that and also boozy. Wow, you don't get
Speaker 3: any floral notes or aromatics on the hops, but man,
Speaker 3: that's a boozy beer. And that is delicious. So not
Speaker 3: as rich as I expected. Finishes a little bit dry,
Speaker 3: but absolutely delicious. The Unrefined Sugar from Lagunita's Brewing Company
Speaker 3: Strong al brew with whole cane sugar.
Speaker 1: All right, and I'm almost done with my March Toberfest
Speaker 1: from Gallas Island Brewing Company, the World Beer Cup Winner
Speaker 1: Gold World Beer Cup winner in the Mars and category
Speaker 1: from the twenty twenty four World Beer Cup. But I
Speaker 1: am almost done with that, and I'll be cracking a
Speaker 1: beer coming up next segment. But let's do this.
Speaker 2: Hold my beer and watch this brought to you by
Speaker 2: the Ring Malda ten Hacen insurance group, where they'll cover
Speaker 2: you for just about everything except this.
Speaker 1: Okay, not a lot of detail, a lot of details
Speaker 1: in the story, but there is some good, juicy stuff
Speaker 1: in here, so let's get into it. A driver may
Speaker 1: have gotten herself into trouble after calling law enforcement to
Speaker 1: report not one, not two, not three, not four, not five,
Speaker 1: not six, but eight vehicles following her. You heard me right,
Speaker 1: eight vehicles following her during a drive down Colorado's I
Speaker 1: seventy and according to Summit County's Sheriff's office, their team
Speaker 1: fielded a call from a neighboring county related to a
Speaker 1: driver and a passenger who reportedly believed they were being
Speaker 1: followed while traveling the Mountain Interstate and as the couple
Speaker 1: crossed these into Summit County, local deputies were able to
Speaker 1: make contact near Frisco, and a couple in the vehicles
Speaker 1: said that it had claimed that eight vehicles have been
Speaker 1: following them on the highway, also stopping at the same
Speaker 1: gas stations as them. Right, all right, we'll lose them.
Speaker 1: Let's pull into the gas station. Oh they're here too,
Speaker 1: Keep going, keep going, well. While the couple also said
Speaker 1: that the vehicles had followed them into Frisco deputies well,
Speaker 1: they said they didn't see any vehicles at the scene.
Speaker 1: The female driver allegedly admitted consuming both alcohol and cocaine,
Speaker 1: to driving in cocaine prior to driving, and when she
Speaker 1: agreed to a roadside test, Debt said that she failed
Speaker 1: to complete a comparable from what a supper person would.
Speaker 3: No, huh, oh, you'll had the alcohol and the cocaine
Speaker 3: and you don't be able to stand and walk a
Speaker 3: straight line.
Speaker 1: And the cocaine. She was arrested and booked on multiple charges.
Speaker 3: Uh uh.
Speaker 1: Here's the lesson, folks, here's the lesson.
Speaker 3: Here, there's more than one.
Speaker 1: It's a very simple lesson. Don't drive under the influence.
Speaker 1: Not only many drugs result in pyramid, but paranoia is
Speaker 1: also a side effect. All right. Also, kids, don't do drugs.
Speaker 1: It almost reminds me of almost famous don't do drugs.
Speaker 1: So all suspects were in said until proven guilty in
Speaker 1: the court of law according to the story, but your
Speaker 1: hold my beer and watched this bring brought to you
Speaker 1: by our friends over renalton Eg Insurance Group. Colorado driver
Speaker 1: claims not one, not two, not three, not four, not five,
Speaker 1: not six, not seven, but eight vehicles were following them
Speaker 1: on a mountain drive. Ends up getting arrested and the
Speaker 1: cops report, yeah, we didn't see any vehicles, not a one,
Speaker 1: not a one.
Speaker 3: When you said that eight vehicles were following and she
Speaker 3: called herself Princess Diana, and I was like, oh.
Speaker 1: That's at Chad Pilby, by the way, hold of great.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna send the hate mail my way. Uh yeah,
Speaker 3: that would hurt. I that's that's such an unusual call.
Speaker 2: You.
Speaker 3: I mean the cops, you know, they're gonna hear every
Speaker 3: kind of call in the world. I mean, they're gonna
Speaker 3: get all the strange ones. I've heard the ones where
Speaker 3: you know, somebody got their big Mac wrong or you know,
Speaker 3: their whopper wrong and they called nine one one because
Speaker 3: they wouldn't give them their money back or something like that.
Speaker 3: It was like, no, you don't you call the manager.
Speaker 3: You don't call nine one one. This one here, somebody's
Speaker 3: under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
Speaker 1: And drugs and again, and like I said, there's not
Speaker 1: a lot of details.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know the name of the person arrested. I
Speaker 1: don't know what kind of alcohol they were.
Speaker 3: Drinking, right, or how many grams of coke?
Speaker 1: How many grams of coke? I don't know any of that,
Speaker 1: But I do know that they were claiming that eight
Speaker 1: vehicles were following out and they even tried right.
Speaker 3: That's the party finds so strange. It's like they knew
Speaker 3: exactly how many cars. Like if I look at my
Speaker 3: rear view mirror and I see more than two cars,
Speaker 3: it's it's three or more.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have no idea you can tell one, but yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Have time to count. How many cars are you hiving?
Speaker 3: Like one, two, three, four, five, six, eight? You got
Speaker 3: time to count eight. That's that's the probable cause right there.
Speaker 3: All right, thank you bringing all the tenant and insurance group.
Speaker 3: We're sponsoring that segment. And USA remember.
Speaker 1: Don't do drugs. All right, Well, you're gonna take a
Speaker 1: break coming out, Let's talk State Fair and uh, let's
Speaker 1: talk about Aldie, who revealed its official beer taster. Who
Speaker 1: is this? Oh this is so much more.
Speaker 3: Hang with us.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back.
Speaker 2: When someone says, hold my beer, you know a trip
Speaker 2: to the er is in your future, so hold your
Speaker 2: own beer buddy, and just listen to more of What's
Speaker 2: What's on Tap Radio.
Speaker 3: Superior Pest Control of West Michigan, Superior Pest dot Biz.
Speaker 3: They are sponsors of the research department here at What's
Speaker 3: on Tap Radio. Make sure that we have all this
Speaker 3: awesome content. Give them a call or reach out to
Speaker 3: them at Superior Pest dot Biz. All right, welcome back
Speaker 3: to What's on Tap Radio. If you are listening right
Speaker 3: now in your car, take a quick peek, just if
Speaker 3: it's safe to do so. Look in your rear view mirror,
Speaker 3: and if you see eight cars following you right now,
Speaker 3: do not call nine to one one. They are not
Speaker 3: chasing you.
Speaker 1: Chance that I'm just trying to get where they're kind
Speaker 1: of get to.
Speaker 3: So right, my guess is if you see, if you
Speaker 3: can actually see eight cars behind you, and you're listening
Speaker 3: to this program and you you understand what's happening, there
Speaker 3: are probably eight cars behind you. But in you're in,
Speaker 3: you're fine. They're not chasing you. But if you're on
Speaker 3: a lonely road and you look behind you and you
Speaker 3: think you see eight cars, pull over, get out, call
Speaker 3: an eight hundred number and get help because you're on something.
Speaker 3: So that's that's nuts right there. Oddly specific, I saw
Speaker 3: eight cars chasing me.
Speaker 1: What's scary is that she's, you know, drunk and high
Speaker 1: on cocaine. Driving through the mountains. It's hard to do
Speaker 1: that sober. I'm I'm gripping the wheel ten and two,
Speaker 1: knuckling it.
Speaker 3: Oh two anymore? I an if you heard that, Oh no, dude,
Speaker 3: talk talk to your students at the high school and
Speaker 3: ask them who've gone through drivers training. Ten and two
Speaker 3: is wrong?
Speaker 1: Now, well, I still do that because I am knuckling
Speaker 1: it very hard when I'm driving through the mountains. I
Speaker 1: can't imagine trying to dry.
Speaker 3: That absolutely ridiculous fun fact that you're gonna learn. Nobody's
Speaker 3: died in a school fire since the nineteen fifties, and
Speaker 3: yet we still practice fire drills in schools, and they've
Speaker 3: changed the procedures. They're now telling all the students to
Speaker 3: stay put well until the teachers go and check the
Speaker 3: hall to make sure it's safe to evacuate. I mean,
Speaker 3: talk about people trying to justify their existence, but I
Speaker 3: don't know, Yeah, I don't. We went off script there, James,
Speaker 3: open a beer.
Speaker 1: All right, So I'm gonna take a break from the
Speaker 1: bars ins and I got this beer the other Day's
Speaker 1: making a return. Speaking of a laboring company we're talk
Speaker 1: about very kid friendly and they're very patient with the kids.
Speaker 1: But making a return, speaking of hiding in the bushes
Speaker 1: and peeking at you, and I feel like I watched
Speaker 1: I am bringing the Murky Myers. Murky Murky Myers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a very good beer. This is at eight
Speaker 1: point four percent. This is a hazy double India pale ale.
Speaker 3: Right now, this is the first Wait a minute, this
Speaker 3: is the first IPA of the show. Oh wow, yeah,
Speaker 3: you hear that, Matt, We waited fire Marshall. Matt gets
Speaker 3: a name drop right there because he hates IPAs, and
Speaker 3: you know you do is drink ip as. Just ip
Speaker 3: a heavy show. He sends me messages all the time too.
Speaker 3: It's like, well have you on the IPAs this week?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm drinking a lot of mars In's. I mean
Speaker 1: breaking up.
Speaker 3: Oh that's that's his wheelhouse man. That guy loves those
Speaker 3: brown ales ambers.
Speaker 1: It's got the haze to it.
Speaker 3: Very murky, very murky looking, by the way. Play on
Speaker 3: the Michael Myers from the Friday the thirteenth series. No
Speaker 3: Nightmare on elm Street sees no Evil Dead series. No,
Speaker 3: All right, that's at Chad Pilbeam.
Speaker 1: That's me. Quite the difference between the Mars and that
Speaker 1: was just tricky.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and quite the difference between the movie Halloween, which
Speaker 3: that is based off of. In the movies I just.
Speaker 1: Mentioned Miricky Myers, no label Brewing Company eight point four
Speaker 1: percent alcohol by volume? Whoa eight point four? Sir?
Speaker 3: Jumping up with us?
Speaker 1: I brought to the table from the March soberfester Calvison
Speaker 1: Island Brewing Company. But you know, getting towards the end
Speaker 1: of the show, so.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can coast off in the sunset.
Speaker 1: With that one. Let's let the leg stretch out a
Speaker 1: little bit.
Speaker 3: That's right, all right. Well, you know we were talking
Speaker 3: about the trust the experts and everything. Well, experts over
Speaker 3: in the UK. I want to talk about this story
Speaker 3: because you know, if you say trust the experts, we're
Speaker 3: supposed to say, all right, trust, well, we'll trust you.
Speaker 3: I mean me, I like to say, well, what are
Speaker 3: your credentials? And experts over in the United Kingdom they
Speaker 3: want to screw with I don't know, three four hundred
Speaker 3: years of tradition, like wait, a minute. What Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 3: if we're gonna mess with like three hundred and thirty
Speaker 3: years of tradition, let's go ahead and screw with beer.
Speaker 3: Nobody will get upset at all. Nah, it'll be fine.
Speaker 3: If you're not familiar with the United Kingdom, the traditional
Speaker 3: poor for a pint is nineteen point two ounces, to
Speaker 3: be exact, five hundred and sixty eight millileaters. Okay, uh,
Speaker 3: that is a traditional pint. It's a little bit bigger
Speaker 3: than our pint, imperial pint. Well researchers over in the
Speaker 3: United Kingdom, in an effort to boost world health. Yes,
Speaker 3: that's what they want to do to boost world health.
Speaker 3: We want to improve situations here. We're gonna start by
Speaker 3: going into the United Kingdom pubs and asking them to
Speaker 3: cut down on the size of their traditional pores. That's
Speaker 3: gonna say, save us finally, man, No, nope, we don't
Speaker 3: have to worry about a meteor hitting the earth, global warming,
Speaker 3: running out of fresh water. Nope, We're going to save
Speaker 3: the planet one pint at a time, well, one smaller
Speaker 3: pint at a time. Reducing the size of a traditional
Speaker 3: pint could help reduce the overall alcohol consumption. You don't say,
Speaker 3: if we made them smaller, people might drink less. Well,
Speaker 3: let's see what the what the results were, because they
Speaker 3: did the results and they said, what we want to
Speaker 3: do is go to a two thirds pint serving. And
Speaker 3: I'm like, wait a minute, two thirds. Now, we're not
Speaker 3: a show about math. But if you take nineteen point
Speaker 3: two and divide it by you know, three, and then
Speaker 3: multiply by two, you'll get to the number and it's
Speaker 3: less than nineteen point two. And that's what they're used
Speaker 3: to drinking. And they used they drink beer that's lower ABV.
Speaker 3: Traditionally they it's session beer over there, it's you know,
Speaker 3: three four five percent, you know, considered high over there.
Speaker 3: In most cases, in most pubs, people are drinking session
Speaker 3: beers where they can drink plenty of them. Well, they
Speaker 3: tested this out at a whopping embrace yourself folks, twelve
Speaker 3: venues and these were twelve participating venues, which represents exactly
Speaker 3: ready for this, one percent of the total number of
Speaker 3: pubs that were asked to participate. So they asked, they asked,
Speaker 3: all yeah, ninety nine percent of the people asked said no, thanks,
Speaker 3: we are not doing this. And the alcohol volume of
Speaker 3: beer dropped nine point six percent in sales during the
Speaker 3: four week trial, but wine consumption increased, so they traded
Speaker 3: one vice for another. And yeah, you're gonna start going ahead,
Speaker 3: and you're gonna start screwing with people's habits. You're gonna
Speaker 3: start screwing around with people's business. You're gonna tell people
Speaker 3: to sell less beer. Hey, listen, I know you're struggling
Speaker 3: right now, but we want you to sell less beer.
Speaker 1: Well, they've been drink They've been drinking this way since
Speaker 1: the sixteen hundreds.
Speaker 3: I know, I know. It's like, why would you go
Speaker 3: and tell a business? Look, look, look, I know you
Speaker 3: want to make money. I know you want to stay
Speaker 3: in business. But look that guy over there is getting fat,
Speaker 3: and you really and and and she's supposed to be
Speaker 3: home watching her kids. In fact, that lady over there,
Speaker 3: I just saw her at a University of Texas football
Speaker 3: game against U EL Monroe and her kid was drinking
Speaker 3: a Michelobaltra. You gotta cut her off. Man, you can't
Speaker 3: do this. I don't know where this idea rolled out.
Speaker 1: Here's what's gonna happen. They're gonna reduce the amount of
Speaker 1: the pints and then people are just gonna order more.
Speaker 3: That's right, right, you do two thirds? Like, well I
Speaker 3: only had two thirds, so I can have twice as many.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, that's not how that works. Then that's
Speaker 3: what's gonna they're gonna do. They're gonna say you cut
Speaker 3: it down by a third, and they're gonna drink twice
Speaker 3: as many, and they're gonna drink more beer. I don't.
Speaker 3: It makes no sense what they're doing.
Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Because I remember I
Speaker 1: had a cagurator, right, Remember I was like, I got
Speaker 1: this cargurator. I'm gonna reduce amount of drinking because then
Speaker 1: I can control. Right, So rather than pouring a full
Speaker 1: pint of beer, I would just pour like an ounce,
Speaker 1: and then I would do that, and then I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I want another ounce, and so I'll
Speaker 1: pour another ounce, not filling it, just pouring an ounce,
Speaker 1: and I'd go back about twelve times. You do the math,
Speaker 1: and it's like, wait, I should just poured myself a
Speaker 1: whole pint.
Speaker 3: And so I can.
Speaker 1: Imagine, all right, well, all right, damn well, I'm out
Speaker 1: of this beer, and I guess I'll just order another one.
Speaker 3: Because do you remember when we were in the iHeart
Speaker 3: radio studios, and I'm going to bring this up. This
Speaker 3: goes back in the day, and so if you don't this,
Speaker 3: this is science, this is evidence. We'd have brewers come
Speaker 3: into the studio and bring beers and they'd bring a
Speaker 3: couple of people with them. We'd have five or six
Speaker 3: people in there, and everybody would get two ounces of beer.
Speaker 3: How long did that beer last? Not long, but a
Speaker 3: couple of seconds, A couple of taste, a couple of tastes,
Speaker 3: it was gone. It's like, well, let's open another couple
Speaker 3: of taste couple. Let's open another a couple of taste couple.
Speaker 3: And it just and then next thing you know, we're like,
Speaker 3: it's time to take a walk down of the break room,
Speaker 3: get some water, and we're gonna wait. We're gonna wait
Speaker 3: an hour and a half before we leave. And then
Speaker 3: there were times it's like you know what time to
Speaker 3: call an uber.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's get some coffee.
Speaker 3: Nobody's going home, nobody's leaving.
Speaker 1: So the UK feels that they're gonna save their citizens
Speaker 1: by reducing the amounts of a beer pints.
Speaker 3: Now if they only had a dental program. Oh wait, oh, sorry,
Speaker 3: is too far?
Speaker 1: All right, we got to take break still. We got
Speaker 1: some more UK news. There's this man protesting beer tax
Speaker 1: and I'm all for his protests. I'm all for a
Speaker 1: way he's protesting. And we got to talk about State
Speaker 1: Fair of Texas, new beer is revealing and all this
Speaker 1: so much more. Hang with us, more morning discuss. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back.
Speaker 2: What's on tap for the term social drinker is taking
Speaker 2: on a whole new level. How about that first? What's
Speaker 2: your pleasure? Gather around and pour around. What's on tap?
Speaker 2: It's what's on tap radio?
Speaker 1: All right, continue our look what's happening across the pond
Speaker 1: and or what's on tap radio? Foreign stories? Look at
Speaker 1: this new story that I got across my desk. There's
Speaker 1: this man protesting, and I like what he's doing. Like
Speaker 1: what he's doing, Chad, hold on second?
Speaker 3: Is he, let's see, is he throwing molotov cocktails? Is
Speaker 3: he lighting tires on fire? Flipping cars? Is he smashing
Speaker 3: out windows of the local Starbucks?
Speaker 1: He's not chaining himself up to a park bench or
Speaker 1: a tree or a tree. He's not wanting in the traffic.
Speaker 1: He's not blocking, He's not blocking traffic, not doing any
Speaker 1: of that, not doing anything.
Speaker 3: Oh is he going up to local politicians while they're
Speaker 3: out for dinner and screaming in their face?
Speaker 1: Not even doing that? Wow? Not even doing that.
Speaker 3: Yes, wow.
Speaker 1: He's going on epic beer tax protest journey across the
Speaker 1: UK and his plan. He's on a mission to chug
Speaker 1: a pint of beer at each country's parliamentary constituencies to
Speaker 1: highlight issues with tax on food and drinks in pubs.
Speaker 1: So his name is j Chan. He's a former staffer
Speaker 1: of the Member of the Parliament who is from Birmingham, England.
Speaker 1: Chan has so far made it to pubs in sixteen
Speaker 1: different continuencies. He said, he's leaving six hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: four to go.
Speaker 3: Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.
Speaker 1: Backup, They have a lot of continuencies in the UK.
Speaker 3: Aldo second, he's gonna chug how many pints?
Speaker 1: One pint? One pint?
Speaker 3: No, but how many total?
Speaker 1: There's over six hundred and thirty four. It was six
Speaker 1: hundred thirty four and seventeen sixteen.
Speaker 3: Six hundred and thirty four and sixteen is six hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, six hundred fifty there I go, so six hundred.
Speaker 3: And fifty different Oh my gosh, I want to think
Speaker 3: about this for a second. So and how long is this?
Speaker 1: Does he say along, Oh, this is gonna take a while.
Speaker 1: We're gonna discuss that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say this is gonna take a
Speaker 3: little while because I'm thinking, I mean, does he have
Speaker 3: a part time job or a full time job?
Speaker 1: Doesn't say He's already chugged pints in consumeracies in Birmingham
Speaker 1: and plans on making his way to quote unquote most
Speaker 1: of the Midlands in the near future. He says he
Speaker 1: was inspired to begin these campaign for pubs after a
Speaker 1: recent general election in the United Kingdom. He saw the
Speaker 1: struggles pubs were facing during the time working for a
Speaker 1: member of the Parliament. The reaction of patrons, Chan says
Speaker 1: shows the importance of pubs in the communities. Like we mentioned,
Speaker 1: you know, they play a very important part the pubs
Speaker 1: do to the community. We watched Taylasso, oh, you know,
Speaker 1: going around drinking the pubs. Additionally, with sixteen consiencies under
Speaker 1: his belt, he said he will continue to go forward
Speaker 1: with his campaign. The journey across the entire entirety of
Speaker 1: the United Kingdom will take about twenty years, he said,
Speaker 1: twenty years and is in the cost about four more
Speaker 1: than four thousand pounds and drinks alone. And to help
Speaker 1: defray the cost, Chan who's only eighteen years of age,
Speaker 1: has started to GoFundMe, which has so far has raised
Speaker 1: about two thousand pounds, which is about twenty six hundred
Speaker 1: dollars in US money. But apparently in twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: the value added tax that that similar to the sales
Speaker 1: tax the United States, rose from twelve point five percent
Speaker 1: to a percent to twenty percent for tourism and hospitalitic. Yes,
Speaker 1: so he's protesting this by going to all six hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty parliamentary constituencies in the UK to bring the
Speaker 1: pub's communities together.
Speaker 3: So here's my I got it ask. I mean, I'm
Speaker 3: I'm all about the cause, you know, and and what
Speaker 3: I say in politics, a lot is is a lot
Speaker 3: of us agree on the cause and the outcome, but
Speaker 3: we don't agree on the solution. So you know, for example,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna use I'm gonna use a really rogue topic
Speaker 3: that we shouldn't talk about. Like Republicans and Democrats both
Speaker 3: agree guns should not be in the hands of people
Speaker 3: who shouldn't own guns, But it's how do we get there?
Speaker 3: And one group wants to ban all guns and the
Speaker 3: other one wants to say we need more education and
Speaker 3: start with where you agree. This guy right here says
Speaker 3: I'm not in favor of the tax on beer, so
Speaker 3: I'm going to protest it by going to every pub
Speaker 3: I can and chugging a beer, right to which I'm
Speaker 3: gonna say, if I'm in the Parliament, well, clearly you
Speaker 3: can afford the tax because you're going around chugging beer.
Speaker 1: He can't, though, because he's getting to go fund me
Speaker 1: to do this.
Speaker 2: Do this.
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, Okay, then I'm gonna ask this. If
Speaker 3: the tax was lower, let's just say we got rid
Speaker 3: of the tax, could he still afford to go chug
Speaker 3: a beer in every pub? I like, I like the cause,
Speaker 3: I do love the.
Speaker 1: Cause, But from going from twelve point five percent to
Speaker 1: twenty percent, that's quite the jump.
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's stupid, it's dumb.
Speaker 1: And so rather than throwing you know, the motov cocktail
Speaker 1: through the window, I get that, or blocking traffic or
Speaker 1: throwing paint on the wall, whatever these protesters are doing.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right, Yeah, no fur.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, Uh, this man is just going on
Speaker 1: a beer tax journey across the UK, chugging a pint
Speaker 1: in all six hundred and fifty promentarycies.
Speaker 3: You heard it here first. And I don't know do
Speaker 3: we have the legal Do we have the legal disclaimer
Speaker 3: that we can pull up. I don't know if we
Speaker 3: have it, But if we have it, I don't know
Speaker 3: if it's available because our lawyers they told us we
Speaker 3: didn't have to play it for a while because you know,
Speaker 3: we we upped our insurance liability and they said, yeah,
Speaker 3: you're good for a while. But I'm gonna say this
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 1: I mean, I can do it. If you feel that
Speaker 1: it's necessary.
Speaker 3: Hit it.
Speaker 4: And now the legal mumbo jumbo, legal mumbo jumbo, that's
Speaker 4: a good beer name. Opinions stated by What's on Tap
Speaker 4: Radio and contributors to What's on Tap Radio are not

Speaker 1: llegal disclaimer because we have to have a legal disclaimer here.
Speaker 3: It is here. It is ladies and gentlemen, based on
Speaker 3: this right here, right now, you can go into any
Speaker 3: bar or pub or brewery you want, and they serve
Speaker 3: you a beer. You feel free to chug it. And
Speaker 3: if they did too to send you out, you say, no,
Speaker 3: I'm exercising my First Amendment right to free speech and
Speaker 3: I am protesting. What are you protesting? You don't have
Speaker 3: a right to ask me that. You can go ahead
Speaker 3: and say whatever you want, so, ladiess sovereign citizen, that's right.
Speaker 3: You can now go ahead and you now have free
Speaker 3: reign to chug anytime you want any establishment, and if
Speaker 3: they try and impede on your right to do so,
Speaker 3: you can say you're infringing on my first First Amendment right.
Speaker 1: I don't really feel like this is much of a
Speaker 1: protest more or less. It just is just his way of,
Speaker 1: you know, bringing the pups together, the community together. He's
Speaker 1: raising awareness if you will not, I.
Speaker 3: Guess I know, but I'm just saying I thought it
Speaker 3: was funny. That's He's like, wait a minute, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: chug beer. It's like, wait a minute. If somebody says, yeah,
Speaker 3: you can't chug that in here. You can't no chugging beer.
Speaker 3: But I'm protesting. Oh okay, go ahead, like all right.
Speaker 1: Hey, can I luck to this guy? His name's Jay
Speaker 1: Channing's eighteen years old and he's going across the UK
Speaker 1: visiting over six hundred and fifty pubs.
Speaker 3: Well, maybe you can run into our good friend Christine
Speaker 3: Mitchell in Scotland. And I say, good friend. She's not
Speaker 3: a good friend yet, but we should start on the show.
Speaker 1: We should get on the show.
Speaker 3: We should. She's thirty seven years old, she doesn't have
Speaker 3: much going on. I mean, she's a National Health Services
Speaker 3: biomedical scientist. She's a busy mom. I mean she's got
Speaker 3: things on her plate.
Speaker 1: And so I'm saying, child's being sarcastic. Okay, she's very busy. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: because you're gonna get that one person to do it.
Speaker 1: Says to me, Look, she's busy.
Speaker 3: Chad, I know, yeah, quick, quick, playing it down. Well,
Speaker 3: she decided to throw her hat in the ring. The
Speaker 3: thirty seven year old was just hired by Aldi, the
Speaker 3: grocery chain as their official beer taster, where she's going
Speaker 3: to be sharing her feedback on the latest bruise and
Speaker 3: helping shape the supermarket's future product selection. Sounds like it

Speaker 1: Texas happening now.
Speaker 3: This cracks me up here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, out in Fort Worth, it's a if you ever been,
Speaker 1: if you can make it out to the fort Worth
Speaker 1: State Fair, it's it's so much fun. A lot of
Speaker 1: food that will kill you, you know, unhealthy options. But hey,
Speaker 1: that's what the state fair is all about. But stay fair.
Speaker 1: Texas Staple is partneringhip with fort Worth with fort Worth's
Speaker 1: Martin House Brewing to sell its own I said, Martin
Speaker 1: House Brewing, said Martin House Brewing.
Speaker 3: Brace yourself, hold on your saddle, folks.
Speaker 1: Mustard beer on the fair grounds, on the fair ground
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah. When it comes to the condiment to
Speaker 1: put on Fletcher's Corny Dog, I don't know if you
Speaker 1: ever had a Fletcher's corny dog. Wow, it is so good,
Speaker 1: so good, but always got to put mustard on it.
Speaker 1: It's a staple. You get the Fletcher's Corny Dog and
Speaker 1: you put the mustard on it.
Speaker 3: But now they're telling, I love me a corn dog
Speaker 3: and I love mustard on it. In fact, a good
Speaker 3: friend of mine he sent me a picture and of
Speaker 3: this mustard beer he was drinking that you're talking about, Yes,
Speaker 3: and I and I said, I just said, what the
Speaker 3: hell's wrong with you? And you know what he did?
Speaker 3: He said it's actually really good.
Speaker 1: That's what they all say, and then you taste it
Speaker 1: and it's like.
Speaker 3: Oh, no, he said it was good, but yeah.
Speaker 1: So Fletcher's Corny Dogs announced on social that they're selling
Speaker 1: their signature mustard beer at the State Fair of Texas
Speaker 1: this year. Now, if you remember, we talked about this
Speaker 1: last year. The beer was first brewed in collaboration with
Speaker 1: fort Wortz Martin House and twenty twenty three for the
Speaker 1: second Glassy Fest. We talked about that last year, but
Speaker 1: this year they're actually bringing you back and selling it
Speaker 1: on the fair grounds for the first time. So that's
Speaker 1: exciting for it. And it's not the first time Martin
Speaker 1: House has delved into some strange bruise, which we spoke
Speaker 1: about many times in the past. The brewer has made
Speaker 1: hot dog water flavored Seltzer beer, made sour pickle beer,
Speaker 1: and Elphine beer brew with spaghetti maple syrup and M
Speaker 1: and m's what was the squidding beer Chad that we had?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that was so bad?
Speaker 1: And what was that? I had the roast beef, the
Speaker 1: French dip beer.
Speaker 3: You have the French dip one.
Speaker 1: I had a friend called Friend's dip and it was
Speaker 1: sixteen percent alcohol and it tasted just like that dip?
Speaker 1: Was it oju? Is that what they call it?
Speaker 3: A ju?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: And then yeah, and then I had the one. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I had the Buffalo Chicken Wing beer that tasted like
Speaker 3: liquefied chicken wings. And you're supposed to serve it in
Speaker 3: a pint glass rimmed with ranch dressing. Right, so wrong?
Speaker 1: But yeah. The Fletcher family debut the famous Corny Dogs
Speaker 1: at the State Fair at Texas back in nineteen forty two,
Speaker 1: and it became a staple at the State Fair of
Speaker 1: Texas each year, and in twenty twenty three, fun fact,
Speaker 1: Fletcher sold more than five hundred and eighteen thousand corny Dogs.
Speaker 3: The older I get, the more I relate to the
Speaker 3: old man yelling at the cloud. I really do. I'm
Speaker 3: just this, this is no get off my lot and
Speaker 3: I don't get this one. I don't And I will
Speaker 3: say you and I we did a beer tasting event
Speaker 3: when we were at Brewmaster's Craft Beer Festival on Galveston Island,
Speaker 3: and we went out and we were tasting beers and
Speaker 3: we had a friend of ours get up and talk
Speaker 3: about this and said, never pair like flavors together. So,
Speaker 3: for example, this one that you just talked about mustard
Speaker 3: beer with corn dogs in it, don't pair it with
Speaker 3: a corn dog and mustard because it's all just gonna
Speaker 3: blend together. It doesn't stand out. And I thought about this,
Speaker 3: and we try this with Buffalo Bayou's pineapple pineapple pineapple,
Speaker 3: and we tried it with a slice of pineapple, and
Speaker 3: we were like, you're right, this doesn't taste good. We
Speaker 3: tried a cinnamon beer with some cinnamon candies. They didn't
Speaker 3: taste right. I was like, it doesn't make sense to
Speaker 3: pare them like that because they overpower each other. But
Speaker 3: it doesn't stop people from going to great links to
Speaker 3: be able to pair these up. Because at the State
Speaker 3: Fair of Texas there's yet another beer pairing from Lakewood
Speaker 3: Brewing Company to pair up with the award winning I
Speaker 3: really want to try this cotton candy bacon on a stick.
Speaker 1: Cotton candy bacon on a stick.
Speaker 3: I know what you're thinking, this is cotton candy that
Speaker 3: tastes like bacon.
Speaker 1: So wait a minute, and you hang on cotton candy.
Speaker 1: So they take the bacon and they put on a stick,
Speaker 1: and then they put in that cotton candy thigh.
Speaker 3: You're talking right. See, it's not cotton candy that tastes
Speaker 3: like bacon. It's bacon on a stick.
Speaker 1: And then cotton candy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got it. It won the Big Text Choice
Speaker 3: Awards as the best New Food item at the Texas
Speaker 3: State Fair. So Lakewood Burn Company says, eh, let's make
Speaker 3: a beer to go with it. Russo's cotton candy Bacon
Speaker 3: on a Stick features honey smoke bacon hooked with a
Speaker 3: special seasoning and glazed with a secret cotton candy syrup.
Speaker 3: And then it's wrapped in fluffy cotton candy because you
Speaker 3: know you need more cotton.
Speaker 1: That sounds like so good. I'm like, I'm Homer Simpson
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I know exactly, I know. Meanwhile, meanwhile,
Speaker 3: your insurance company is ready to cancel your policy because
Speaker 3: you're a cardiac arrested.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure my doctor's just yelling at me like
Speaker 1: you're in your forties, you're not in your twenties. You
Speaker 1: can't eat anymore.
Speaker 3: That's right. Lakewood's cotton Candy Bacon Blonde exclusively available at
Speaker 3: the State Fair, and the lake would bring tap room,
Speaker 3: and of course you can get all your other favorites there.
Speaker 3: You know, the press release. They gotta they gotta plug it.

Speaker 3: beer the Mustang Nation. You mean SMU Yeah that's two
Speaker 3: all right, yep, they are there, But I don't know
Speaker 3: about you. I'm I'm all in on this bacon cotton
Speaker 3: candy amazing.
Speaker 1: I bet you is amazing.
Speaker 3: But I don't want it with the beer. I want
Speaker 3: them completely separate. So I would if I were at
Speaker 3: the Texas State Fair, I would go get the ba Okay,
Speaker 3: I'm more intrigued by the bacon cotton candy.
Speaker 1: They have to sell it together, right they don't. You
Speaker 1: don't have to go across the fair grounds to get
Speaker 1: the beer, and then.
Speaker 3: They probably do sell together. But I want the bacon first,
Speaker 3: and then I'm gonna go eat some peanuts and some
Speaker 3: popcorn and maybe get a corn. Okay, here's what you do.
Speaker 3: You get your mustard corn dog beer, then you get
Speaker 3: your bac cotton candy snack. Then you get your mustard
Speaker 3: corn dog, and then you get your cotton candy bacon beer. Okay,
Speaker 3: gotta cleanse your palate.
Speaker 1: And then get a physical after that because that's gonna
Speaker 1: be cholesterol. Hell, the way, results may vary, results may
Speaker 1: vary a real quick. Before we get out of here, we
