Full on tuna

A beer that smells like dessert and drinks like an espresso martini? We crack open a white chocolate espresso coffee stout from Boss Dog and it absolutely sings—silky coffee, a touch of sweetness, and an easygoing 5.5% ABV that keeps conversation loose and lively. Then we switch gears to a hazy IPA from Collision Bend that threads the needle between fruit-forward aroma and a clean grapefruit finish, landing in that sweet “all day” zone while still bringing a sturdy 6.2% punch.

Between sips, we follow the sun to Houston. Picture an open-air ice house with 55 taps repeated across three stations, food trucks circling like friendly satellites, and a massive outdoor screen sharp enough to make the Super Bowl look new. The vibe is pure spring-in-Texas: a breeze through the picnic tables, big fans spinning overhead, and menus that leap from lobster to funnel-cake mashups. We swap travel snapshots, talk about how weather shapes beer culture, and confess how quickly a good tap list can turn into a long night of favorites and firsts.

Back home, the conversation gets geeky in the best way. We compare ABV and IBU without the jargon, debate whether a projector beats a TV for movies and gaming, and admit that scale changes everything—from a screen that fills a wall to a stout that fills the room with coffee-chocolate aroma. The stout earns a rare “keep it stocked” from both of us; the hazy secures a solid eight and a spot in the weeknight rotation. And because craft beer runs on discovery, we’re opening the door for non-local suggestions—send your under-the-radar lagers, saisons, and hazies our way and we’ll put them to the test.

If you love beer that tells a story—Cleveland craft pride, Houston’s open-air tap scene, and the small joys that follow a great pour—you’ll feel right at home. Hit play, grab something cold, and join the banter. If you dig the show, click follow and subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a new go-to beer, and drop your top taproom rec in the comments. Cheers.

SPEAKER_02 3:59

Yeah, we'll have to get another one. We'll have to get another one and just leave it here. I tried to bring them back and forth.

SPEAKER_05 4:05

Yeah, and just that way we all didn't work till we couldn't get the other one to work. So all right, we'll talk about that one. Hey, anyways, anything I have some exciting stuff I did this week. Anything you got?

SPEAKER_02 4:17

I didn't do much. I mean, I enjoyed fucking 40-degree weather that we had.

SPEAKER_00 4:25

You enjoyed fucking the weather.

SPEAKER_02 4:27

Oh, dude, I was laying outside. Like I came home from work with all that ass crack, stripped down naked, and just laid on my porch. Like, yeah. We're getting the snow tan. Snow tan. It's better than fucking 20s, dude. Yeah, it was a little break from it. Yeah, it was nice.

SPEAKER_05 4:44

But it's but that adds to mine because I had to travel out of town. I was going to visit some family and some friends. So I flew to Houston. Yep. I get into Houston, I step off, and I'm out there in the um thing getting uh waiting for the bus to get to the uh car rental. 78 degrees, slight breeze. I'm like, oh right. So I was like, this is beautiful. Right. Instantly I'm thinking I'm in vacation mode because you're you're getting all this beautiful weather. Yeah. And then I go and I'm meeting some friends, they want to go to um dinner. So I'm out, I'm driving up there eating dinner. I'm just windows down. I'm like, this is so nice. We get up there. Now that was the Super Bowl, you know. Oh, yeah, yeah, that's right. You send out Sunday, yeah. Yeah. So I go up there and we're eating, you know, and stuff. We went to one of the Brazilian uh wax places, I mean, uh steak places where they cut you know what I'm talking about, where they cut all the meat, right there in front of you. And you start getting the meat sweats when you're coming out of there, you get real bloated and meat, anyways. So we went there, it was real good. And then uh my buddy was like, Hey, you want to go over here to this one place? It's an ice house. They call them ice houses around there, but basically what they are is just old watering holes that you know they they do you know the history of why they call them ice houses? No, because in Texas, everybody would go to the ice house to get ice, but they would have beer and they have a drink, a cold drink and stuff, but they would get their ice and stuff. So that's kind of cool. Yeah, so they call it ice houses. So we went to this one fifty-five taps. Wow. And they had three areas with 55 taps like 55, 55, 50.

SPEAKER_02 6:35

So 120 fucking taps or 115 tap. No, 165 taps.

SPEAKER_05 6:42

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And but there were 55 beers. You know what I mean? Different one was 50. No, they were all the same, but three setups. Okay, three setups. Yeah, so it's 55 beers, is what I yeah, I was like, holy cow. Anyways, plus you have all us. So we're sitting there. They had a TV. It was all well, they have a part that's closed, but then they have a part that's all open, it was all open outside, food trucks on the side, it was packed, picnic tables, tables, everything. They had one of them screens that was probably like you know, 10, 20 feet big. They had the fucking, yeah, and they had the game on there, by 400 or whatever, yeah. And it the picture on that thing was so clear, I could not believe how clear it was.

SPEAKER_02 7:27

Well, you know, we went to your brother-in-law's basically.

SPEAKER_05 7:31

Like he finally took his hat off and he he came out and I was having a smoke, whatever, and he did come out, and I'm like, see now that doesn't look bad. Yeah, but like Bobby was telling me the whole time he looked like fucking uh Well, he got it fixed. Yeah, and that's what he said. He said Grace hooked him up and fixed him up.

It does, I like I want one now. Like, I'm like, not that I have a spot that could I can put it. Yeah, I mean, I would have to put it in here to shine it on the wall in my kitchen. I'm like, like, I don't even know where I would.

SPEAKER_05 9:15

Could you imagine playing the game on that?

SPEAKER_02 9:17

SPEAKER_05 9:34

Oh, and then upstairs he plays.

SPEAKER_02 9:37

Yeah, yeah. But I couldn't imagine playing on that thing, dude. Like you would just see everything.

SPEAKER_05 9:44

Like you would be immersed. But that's where you would probably get sick. You know how they always have the warning if you play this game?

SPEAKER_02 9:51

I personally would.

SPEAKER_05 9:52

You'd be like thinking you're walking in it.

SPEAKER_02 9:54

Warm Weather And Snow Tans

SPEAKER_05 10:24

But so we went there and it was beautiful out. I'm like, damn loving this, right? So the next day, I'm hanging around and stuff. We're hanging out, and then we went to um oh, we went to a couple bars that I used to go to when I lived there. You know, just hang out. But we passed this one place. I went there once before. It was called Porky's. They had the sign like the old Porky.

SPEAKER_02 10:46

Like the old Porky show. Yeah, a movie.

SPEAKER_05 10:47

Yeah, and basically it's a big, uh, let's say, warehouse-looking building with a lot of garages. Garage doors. They made the out the inside of it has bars, tables, picnic tables. They had a little ban area and everything. But the unique part of it is the outside was set up like a greenery with sidewalks. They probably had about 15 to 20 um food trucks, and you could just walk like a park.

SPEAKER_02 11:13

Oh, that's great.

SPEAKER_05 11:14

Yeah, and they had games, you know, uh was it cornhole and all that, but all the different food trucks.

SPEAKER_02 11:20

I mean, they had they got the weather for that.

SPEAKER_05 11:23

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02 11:23

Like you can't you you could do something like that in Ohio for what three months? Yeah, yeah. I mean, uh, let's say five.

SPEAKER_05 11:31

Yeah. Yeah, five months.

SPEAKER_02 11:33

I'd say five.

SPEAKER_05 11:34

You know, but you gotta make all your money in five months. Five months.

SPEAKER_02 11:36

Yeah, that's it.

SPEAKER_05 11:37

And the thing about it, you're you the the place is making some money off the rental of the spots, but that place was packed because it was beautiful. And here's the funny thing is I'm actually there, and that's their spring. They go from winter, spring, summer, real quick. Right.

SPEAKER_02 11:54

So that's their spring. They're all like, yeah, it's really nice. Yeah, but okay, now they're summertime. How many people are standing out there fucking getting food?

SPEAKER_05 12:02

It's probably pretty packed because you could go in, but it's strictly they you know them big ass fans.

SPEAKER_02 12:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 12:08

They got them inside there, okay. Blowing and moving. Right, right.

SPEAKER_02 12:11

Yeah, so I wouldn't mean it's like 110 degrees. As long as you're in a shade. The beer goes down. Yeah, but if you're do you want to be in a food truck?

unknown 12:20

No.

SPEAKER_02 12:21

Do you want to be cooking in a food truck?

SPEAKER_05 12:22

I do not, but I bet you they're making that money.

SPEAKER_02 12:24

Yeah, oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 12:25

I'm sure they are, but they had everything from probably really thin.

Houston Trip And Super Bowl Night

SPEAKER_02 12:29

Yeah, like a song.

SPEAKER_05 12:31

They had like uh lobster truck, uh, a funnel cake truck that just did all nothing but like 50 different ways of doing a funnel cake. Like they had chicken ones and they had like noodle ones, you know, like noodles. Yeah, they had you know what I got eight chicken wings and they were huge, right? And I got fries and they were covered with grilled shrimp, with like the you know that like they put kind of like that sauce on top and everything. So freaking good. Oh, yeah. My buddy, he got crawfish on top of his. See, I'm not a huge crawfish guy, but it was they were already out of the bodies, you know, and it just means like so.

SPEAKER_02 13:10

I would like to try that. I guess I would definitely think it's not so bad. Yeah, because I did try crawfish and you're not a big fan. I wasn't a huge fan. I mean, just they're very fishy, they are a little bit fishy, they're a little bit fishy, and then they say like you suck that shit out.

SPEAKER_05 13:28

No, that's not so bad when you do that. But they said this. I was asking the guy, he said this past couple years they've been hurting. I guess they had a disease one year, and then the cold weather coming in really hurts the uh crawfish. Yeah, crawfish business. But anyway, some we just had a great time and it was nice out. And then, oh, there was one more place. I know it's all food, that's why I'm so big, you know. But I get it. We went to we went to this other place. We used to go after church, and it was uh Greek food, right? Okay. And uh it was funny because I was just talking to Kat about it, and I was like, and we went there. Guy said, Hey, let me take you to lunch, and we went there, right? And I was like, Okay, I'll I'll meet you where you want to go, and we went over there. And um, as I'm sitting there eating, they make the the pita bread, right? And I lifted that little, they have like a basket full of it, and you open it, like you know, uncover it, and I swear I uncover and I heard, Oh is that the non bread?

SPEAKER_02 14:25

Yeah, it's the nonbread. That's all fresh. Oh yeah. You so the first time I ever went to a Greek restaurant was with you guys. Oh yeah. Uh your guys' birthday, wasn't it? A couple years ago, yeah. Your birthday or whatever. Me and my brothers, yeah, yeah. And I and my brother came down, and that was the first Greek that was I went to one other one, but it was like it was like a chain. Yeah, like you're the one we went to wasn't a chain. But that was like I it was very, very good. I was like, okay, like I could definitely get into this place.

SPEAKER_05 14:59

Makes that place look terrible.

SPEAKER_02 15:02

And you know, I'm not that young now. Yeah. So anyways, back in the day, you back in the day, dude. I had a chick pull her panties down, and as soon as it pulled down, yeah, it was terrible. Full-on tuna. Like, no, like literally, you would have thought there was a fucking like someone opened a can of coffee. We were like ocean. And you're like, there's no ocean around here. I looked, I looked out a window, so I don't want to see where I was at. But you looked out. I looked out a window and said, Well, fuck, is that a ranger? And me and my buddy ran out. And you both were gonna get it? No. Well, I don't know, maybe, but I wasn't getting it. No more. Like it was literally, it was uh terrible. That was bad. That was the worst when you when you could take down the jeans and it was like sticky okay. Then you take down the panties, and then all of a sudden it was like the whole room filled like fish. But I mean, she was young too. Yeah, but you know, so maybe she didn't know to yeah. Well, when that happened to me, I was like, I can get over it. Yeah. I know, there ain't no fucking way to do it. No, you wouldn't be able to. I walked in behind you. I was like, why is this guy's running? No, you would not have been able to. I guarantee you, I like it would have been like me holding a tuna fish can to your nose. Yeah, I like tuna. You like tuna? Yeah, you're right. No, nah, no, nah, no.

SPEAKER_05 31:23

Okay, have you ever looked through someone's wallet while they were out of the room? No, no, no, I haven't either. No, that was kind of corny. Yeah, this is a good one. I bet you answers yes for tonight on this one. Have you ever had more than 15 drinks in one night?

SPEAKER_02 31:51

I know the answer to that one already.

SPEAKER_03 31:53

SPEAKER_02 31:56

SPEAKER_05 37:04

They say that the reason they do that is because they like the smell of it, and then men are really kind of attracted to it too, because they're like, Yeah, I'm not. You're not? You're not attracted to men's clone?

SPEAKER_02 37:18

Okay, let's rate this. This shit's going down till fast.

SPEAKER_02 39:12

Yeah, it's going bad.

SPEAKER_05 39:15

This is pretty good though. For high IPUs. Maybe it's a hazy IPs. For IBUs, it's pretty good.

SPEAKER_02 39:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 39:22

Yeah. I like hazy's though.

SPEAKER_02 39:23

SPEAKER_02 39:31

I would keep it.

SPEAKER_05 39:32

A little bit higher on the IB. I mean ABUs, ABVs. Alcohol. A B Vs. A B Vs. Alcohol.

SPEAKER_02 39:47

A B V.

SPEAKER_05 40:20

That other one was way better. Anyways, what would you rate this? I don't I don't think I would well, you know what? I'll go ahead and princess this because the reason I'll princess this is because if you like IBUs, I mean IBUs, if you like eight IPAs, if you like IPAs, you'll like this. You know what I mean?
