What is family for?

A peach label promised sunshine. The pour delivered wheat. That’s where our night starts—expectations versus reality, how labels shape first sips, and the simple tricks that can rescue a subtle beer: the right glass, a slice of peach or orange, and a little patience. We get honest about why some wheat beers are easy on the palate but tough on the gut, and why “fruit” on a can doesn’t always mean fruit on the tongue.

Then the lights dim and the mood shifts. We pop Goose Island Bourbon County and everything slows down: deep aromas of smoke and oak, chocolate layered with vanilla and caramel, and a bourbon warmth that asks you to sit, swirl, and sip. We talk temperature and glassware, why this stout is a closer, and how it pairs with cigars or dark chocolate. We even stack it against Kentucky Bourbon Barrel and call a clear winner for balance and depth. If you’re into barrel-aged stouts, this segment is your tasting roadmap.

Between pours, life sneaks in. One of us steps into new responsibilities at work—scheduling trucks, printing orders, leveling up in Excel—while we swap a gnarly hygiene story that proves how tiny habits can keep a whole crew sick. We pull back the curtain on our show too: a new Facebook page, Buzzsprout link, and a look at growth across 66 countries. Seven seasons later, the formula still works—good friends, good beer, real laughs—and consistency beats perfection.

If you like candid beer reviews, practical tasting tips, and the kind of banter that makes a week feel shorter, you’re in the right place. Hit play, grab a glass, and tell us where you land: team wheat or team barrel-aged stout? Subscribe, share with a friend who loves big flavor, and drop a review with your top stout recommendation.

SPEAKER_04 15:50

Pull it out a little bit, shove it back in. So that that ain't bad. But the next part, I mean, we definitely I'm looking actually looking forward to this next one.

SPEAKER_03 16:03

I am too, so I even though it's a little bit more. So I was working whatever right towards the end of the day after I already bought it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 16:13

And then I was like, fuck. I don't know if you could see on the camera, but we do have where you had the bottle caps up there.

SPEAKER_03 16:20

Right. And I was like, fuck, did we just I thought we just did I don't think I started thinking that like we just we might have did something from that brewery and and I thought it was a bourbon barrel, but I don't remember paying what I paid for it.

SPEAKER_04 16:35

Yeah, well, you got like four mini uh wine bottles there, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 16:40

I mean, I mean I'm not bitching about the price yet, yeah. Till after he drinks it. And once I once I seen it said the original bourbon barrel, yeah, I was like, all right, well, so me this very well could be the starter foundation of bourbon barrel. And I mean Goose Island, that's an old brewery, yeah. I think it's Goose Island, isn't it? Yeah, Goose Island. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's old.

SPEAKER_04 17:08

So the other thing is is like uh people most people when they think of uh bourbon barrel beers, they think of what Kentucky bourbon barrel.

SPEAKER_03 17:15

Kentucky bourbon barrel, yeah, right. Yep, right. So and uh for it to come out of Michigan, yeah, you know, so I mean it's kind of a little bit of a thing, anyways. And we'll have to see how good it is. And I really like the bottle, I'm not gonna lie. I thought the bottle, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:53

SPEAKER_03 28:03

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 28:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 28:04

I didn't THC button.

SPEAKER_04 28:06

But they shouldn't put that much in one cookie. Because who's just gonna take a bite of that cookie? You're gonna eat the whole damn thing.

SPEAKER_03 28:14

That's why they do it.

SPEAKER_04 28:15

Yeah. That's why they do it. I wonder why I was so snacky hungry. Snacky, anyways. Cat liked it.

SPEAKER_02 28:22

Snacky hungry. Come here, cat. Come back from war. I'm hungry.

SPEAKER_04 28:32

Have you ever stayed in a relationship just for the sex? Probably a little bit longer than I would have probably. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 28:41

Yeah. Yeah, I can see that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 28:43

I can see that.

SPEAKER_03 28:44

A little longer.

SPEAKER_04 28:45

Like you're like, yeah, I want to break up her with this Friday, but fucking crazy shit, but she swallows like a motherfucker. What's that song? Crazy bitch. You fuck so good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 28:57

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 28:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 28:59

Yeah. But yeah.

SPEAKER_03 29:00

I think everything.

SPEAKER_04 29:01

I've been one 30 years too long.

SPEAKER_03 29:06

It's not because of the sex. It's just the alimony.

SPEAKER_04 29:09

It's the payments I would have to make these days.

SPEAKER_03 29:13

It eventually switched from one to another. You know what I mean? That's a funny thing, though. Like, how quick does that switch? Yeah. You know what I mean? Like over the years, you're like, oh, wait a minute. Yeah, the sex has dwindled down. Now fuck. Like now it's money. Like now for payment. Yeah, my payment's gonna be more than my truck payment.

SPEAKER_02 29:32

Fuck. Like, I don't know if I can.

SPEAKER_03 29:34

I'm not getting a new truck this year. Ever, ever. Forever, ever, ever. Until this bitch dies. Then you think about it.

SPEAKER_04 29:43

I could have went to prison for 20 years.

SPEAKER_03 29:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 29:47

Well, when you stop for a second and then you come back to this, it's easier just to keep uh keep drinking. Keep sipping. Just keep sipping. Because I I stopped for a moment to woo. But that's some chocolatey, chocolatey stuff there. That bourbon, chocolate.

SPEAKER_03 30:03

That bourbon. I mean, it literally it's bourbon with chocolate.

Stout Versus Kentucky: Verdict

SPEAKER_04 30:07

Yeah. But and smoke. Yeah. Smoke. Yeah. A lot of smoke. And when they said vanilla in that, I'm like, come on. Caramel? Yeah, I mean caramel, maybe.

SPEAKER_03 30:17

That might be calming it down a little bit, honestly. That a little bit of notes of vanilla, whatever, just to try to calm it down a little bit. I I get you get very, very slight notes. Very slight notes, but it's probably calming that bourbon taste down. Yeah. I would not say Princess on this one. No, but I would say Jason Keeper.

SPEAKER_04 30:40

I would too. The only reason is because this is a good one to end your like if you're sitting around with your buddies and you're having a little cigar or joke time or whatever, this will put everybody in the right mood.

SPEAKER_03 30:54

Now, would you dip your cigar in that? Oh, I might. Do you know how they you know how like I'm not a big cigar? I think it would just pair well. With the cigar? Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. So I guess uh JJ, you know, JJ would he's a big cigar guy, and camera puts all that weight on me.

SPEAKER_04 31:14

Oh, yeah, it's it's just this one beer. It's this one beer.

SPEAKER_03 31:18

I was fine until I did this one.

SPEAKER_04 31:21

How is it? Now I'm feeling a little bloated, are you?

SPEAKER_03 31:23

I was like 150, and then you open this. Now I feel like 300. I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 31:28

It is heavy ish.

SPEAKER_03 31:30

Yeah, it is heavy. Now, what would you rate that? Honestly, it's not that heavy. No. You know what I mean? It's kind of a smooth drink or liquid-wise. Yeah. It's not a heavy drink. But it's not gassy. But taste-wise. Oh, it's rich.

SPEAKER_04 31:50

It's strong. It's rich. It's strong. It's strong. What would you give it? Now, this is the original bourbon. Throw this up against Kentucky. I would probably do this over Kentucky.

SPEAKER_03 32:00

Absolutely. This wins. Yeah. Hands down. Yeah. For a Kentucky, or for a bourbon barrel.

SPEAKER_04 32:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:06

Hands down. This is probably one of the best I've had.

SPEAKER_04 32:10

Yeah. So in this category, I'm going to throw out there. I'm going to give it a 10 in that category.

SPEAKER_03 32:15

I'm good.

SPEAKER_04 32:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 32:16

I'm good with this one.

SPEAKER_04 32:17

Because in this category, you know what I mean? In a bourbon barrel. Yeah, stout. Stout. Imperial. Yep.

SPEAKER_03 32:24

In a bourbon barrel.

SPEAKER_04 32:25

SPEAKER_03 32:27

SPEAKER_03 32:35

SPEAKER_03 34:28

Uh ultra, yeah, or whatever you're drinking. Like it's strong. Like it's a strong beer. Because we did that week. If you find this, you might want to start out with this. Yeah. Right? You know what I mean? Like, because don't get your palate to uh used to something. And then switch. And then switch to this because it's very strong. Unless you're a bourbon person. Yeah. If you're a strong bourbon person, you might love this. There's a lot of people that like stouts too. Yeah, stout. Yeah, I I just taste the bourbon. Yeah. I taste bourbon and smoke. Yep. A little bit of vanilla. And chocolate. Yeah. Chocolate.
