Two beers. Two moods. One tasting that proves order matters as much as flavor. We kick off with Flannery’s Irish Style Red Ale, a 5.5% pour built on European caramel and dark base malts. It’s all toasted bread, light caramel, and an easy finish that makes sense for St. Paddy’s Day and any night you want a reliable, sessionable red. We talk price ranges, four-pack value, and why this can outperforms bigger-name reds like Killian’s, while landing closer to the clean balance of Smithwick’s.

Then we flip the script with a Hot Honey Mango Sour at 6%. Think ripe mango riding a tart base with a soft honey gloss and a late, playful tickle of heat. The surprise isn’t how bold it sounds; it’s how composed it drinks. The sour pops without punishing, the sweetness doesn’t smother the fruit, and the heat keeps you curious. We even unpack that faint powdery note some palates catch on the finish and why it eases up after a few sips. Most important tip: drink the red first, then the sour. That single move unlocks better flavor on both.

Along the way we compare styles, share practical buying advice, and rate with zero fluff: the Irish Red lands at 8–8.5 for balance, price, and all-night drinkability; the Hot Honey Mango Sour earns a confident 9 for its sweet-heat harmony and repeat-pour appeal. If you’re stocking up for St. Patrick’s Day, a backyard hang, or a casual bottle share, this duo gives you a smooth crowd-pleaser and a bright conversation piece without breaking the bank.

If you enjoyed the tasting and want more blunt, useful beer talk, follow the show, share with a friend, and drop a quick rating to help others find us. What should we taste next?

And then after you're finished, you're asking her, hey, can you make me something to eat? She's like, no- uh, you better buy me dinner, blah, blah, blah, blah, right? But if you go deep enough, they got that cooking switch up in there. And you hit the cooking switch, you're done. I've never heard of it. I'm gonna make you want something to eat. You want something to eat?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I've never heard that.

SPEAKER_01

So you gotta hit that cooking switch. Well, once you hit it once, you don't want to turn it off now.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_00

I've never heard that one.

SPEAKER_01

Because you know, some women will be like, What are we going out to eat? You know, all right.

SPEAKER_00

Anyways, as long as they're paying, who cares?

First Pour: Flannery’s Irish Red

SPEAKER_01

Wherever you want to go. They're not paying, you're paying. Yeah, but, anyways, uh, we got this new trail. Uh what is that? Flannery's flanneries, Irish style red ale. Irish red ale. I like the can. The can's cool. It's like uh the flannel, like green, red, and flanneries. Yeah. Flanneries. It's pretty good. It's flannel, ain't it? Yeah, yeah. Flanneries. Anyways, and oh, that's a boot.

SPEAKER_00

Well, new trails. It's like a hiking, you know what I mean? They're playing off the hiking.

SPEAKER_01

Well, there's that whole group of people that do that. Remember, I got that one beer the one time, and it was like I can't remember. I got a sticker, I think I want to say, off of it. It was like uh like new trails and trails and nails, yeah. Yeah, kind of like that. Yeah. And my beards bother me today. My mustache. Well, we're gonna start off with this one. What is it? What was the uh 5.5%? 16 ouncer. Now they made that big enough. I think they can see that on the can. Yeah, European malt. Look at that.

SPEAKER_00

It is a deep caramel. Yeah, I can't fucking 16 ounces.

SPEAKER_01

I love how you can't read anything anymore. Yeah, you can read it up there on the book. I can read it up there.

SPEAKER_00

Flannery's Irish Ale is brewed with a complex layering of European caramel malts, dark base malts. Expect deep caramel flavors mixed with bready complexes. I definitely get the breadiness. Yeah, yeah. So I wasn't a huge, I did try this before. Yeah. And I mean, but I was kind of baby. But you like reds. I love reds that's I'm a huge red rack.

SPEAKER_01

Rick is known for the reds. He's a he's a big man on the reds. I do love reds. Redheads.

SPEAKER_00

But red butts. Well, only because I'm smacking that ass. It's like a baboon by the time I'm done. He watches the nature shows just to see what it is. Just to see what kind of color red it is. Maybe it matches look. But so to me, it does taste a little different now that I'm having it a little more sober-ish. Because the last time, and but I had a bunch of different beers. Like, you know what I mean? Like, yeah, yeah, and it was uh it was kind of bitter. Oh, this way it's not bitter. It's not bitter this time. No. You know what? Huh? It's because I did that one first.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, and I didn't mention this, but the next one we're gonna do is a hot honey mango sour ale. So I'm looking forward to that. That's uh unified art.

SPEAKER_00

And I don't know where that one's out of. We'll we'll let you know. Yeah, we'll let you know on the next one. Now, this one's out of Williamsport PA, Pennsylvania, which is home of the Little League championship. This is Wannake, Wisconsin or something like that. Oh, really?

And then it was Valentine's Day weekend. So when we everybody went oops, sorry, hit the mic. Um, Valentine's Day weekend. Um, so there was a lot of people out and stuff, and we went to that uh Italian place I like to go, and it was so good. And all you know, for my meal, I just got three meatballs. Okay. Yeah, they were about like snowball size. Wow. Yeah, but they're so good.

SPEAKER_00

They had the sauce with the uh you were able to put them two of them in your mouth at the same time.

SPEAKER_01

I was like, Yeah, like a Friday night. Yeah, like a Friday night. And then I had a wiener, no, um, then I had like uh what is it, the olives. I love the olives that are just cooked in like olive oil and garlic and spices. Oh yeah. But yeah, we celebrated Ethan's uh birthday party. That was nice. We had some the nothing but bun cakes, you know, a little snack at home, the little mini ones. Right, right. Yeah, it was pretty good. But other than that, we didn't do anything. It seemed like everybody was grumpy at work.

SPEAKER_00

Everybody's grumpy. So we ended up uh heading out to Marietta. Oh, yeah, that's right. Uh we went down there. Really nice. Uh we stayed at the uh Lafayette Hotel. Yeah. Uh kind of reminded you of the Cognate Lake Hotel. Oh, old, old hotel. Yeah, but right on the Ohio River. Oh. Like right on the Ohio River. Nice view, nice. Oh, it was beautiful. It really was. It was nice. It was it's a cool little town. Yeah. Little college town. Oh, it is a college town? Yeah. Yeah. And so we uh But it was a beautiful weekend. Oh, absolutely, especially there. Yeah, you know, it was like a three-hour ride south. Uh had a cool little strip you could walk, bunch of bars, shit like that. So it was cool. I mean, a bunch of little old antique places, and that's where you got these.

SPEAKER_01

You picked up these beers.

SPEAKER_00

Um, we actually picked these up in uh wheeling. We were on our way down, we stopped at some little farmer's market type town.

SPEAKER_01

Because that's good when you're out out of the area. Right. Because then you get these unique. You can find something new, yeah. Instead of the normal.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know if we've ever done this new trail. Oh, I so I don't believe we have. But I know we haven't done the hot honey, whatever. I we haven't done that company, but I don't know. For some reason, I see that boot now, and I'm wondering. Oh, on this, yeah, because on the if you can see it right there, there's a hiking boot on this beer can. Yeah. And now I'm wondering if I because I went out that way at the our first year show of the show.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, back in 2020.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I I went out that way. Yeah. So you might have I might we might have grabbed one from out there, especially with it being a red. And I'm kind of looking at we got a little board. I got a little board over our wall of fucking stickers, yeah. And I was looking for this boot, and I don't see it because I remember that boot. You know, now that I see it, I I'm wondering if we've done this once or twice before. At least once before. Well, we can check later too.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, not much going on. Nah, nah, nah, yeah. Nah. So that's pretty good. It is pretty good. That is really good. It's going down. Very, very, yeah. Yeah, it's I would definitely say this is like they said the caramel. I could get it where they say the deep caramel. Yes. Yeah. It's not gonna be a strong, sweet caramel, and but the the breadiness you get, the um I would say on the yeah, on the back side of it, you can definitely get that. That has to do with the uh the European malts. The malts, yeah. Yeah, the European malts. Actually, it is pretty good. I like it.

SPEAKER_00

It's good, dude. I yeah, I would I'll go ahead and say I'll keep it. I would keep it. I would definitely keep it. It would definitely be a Jason Creeper.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna go ahead and say it's Princess.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I guess. Because it is pretty modern. I can see that. Yeah, it's it's a nice it. I could definitely be having this on St. Paddy's Day. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, yeah, and we got St. Paddy's Day coming, coming full force now. Yeah, when is what day is that on?

SPEAKER_00

We don't fall that that doesn't fall on a Tuesday. Yeah, I was gonna say that doesn't fall on now.

SPEAKER_01

Isn't Fat Tuesday going on right now? Yeah, it just I did. Yeah, and then they get into what Ash Wednesday. Ash Wednesday, and then that was just yesterday, brown eye Friday.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, uh I'm I'm waiting for that. It gets tomorrow. Brown eye Friday, yeah. Yeah, it's when they all let you stick a finger in. It's religion, they have to. They have to. Come here, little boy. I didn't say that.

SPEAKER_01

I like the father jokes on the old lady. I like the father jokes, you know. It was funny because we've seen um on TV they had the news, and there was a guy on there, and of course, he had the ash on his you know, forehead from the uh Ash Wednesday, and he had so much ash on his forehead, it was like almost like the guy left the cube up there of it. I'm like, what the heck is on his forehead? You know, and it was like a big old chunk. Chunk was sitting on there, it's just supposed to be a mark, not a big old big old chunk. All right, all right. Anyways, it was it was just took me off guard to see that big chunk on his forehead, you know. He was just at a fire pit.

SPEAKER_00

Some guy was like, here.

SPEAKER_01

That's what Rick does. He smears it all over his face.

SPEAKER_00

He smears it all over my face, hide out in the woods.

SPEAKER_01

That's where you get to Brown Eye Friday. Making sure no one gets you.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, you're like, I'm hiding back here, my ass up against the tree.

SPEAKER_01

You can get through that. You can be on guard. So come after it. But anyways, what would you rate to? I mean, we got a little bit of this, but uh I'm about half. Yeah, I'm about half two. Now it goes against your reds. Now we're talking your reds like your I mean they compared it to what was it? Um um I forgot what they compared it to, but what do you mean? They were saying this compares to like your Irish.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, they said like uh to a Guinness. Againnis. Killians. Killians, yeah. Yeah. And which I'm I'm not a huge Killians fan. I would say it's close though. I'd say close to the case. I would say it's better. Yes, I would it's definitely better than a Killian's. Yes, I would agree. Oh I mean, I'm a huge Smithwicks. Where would you put this?

SPEAKER_01

Because you know Smithwick's.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I'm a huge Smithwick's fan. And that Alaskan. That Alaskan red is really good. Yeah. Them are your some of your very we've had some really good reds on this show.

SPEAKER_01

And we even had some reds that we got from local breweries. Or even when we went to the Carolinas.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

In the mountains.

SPEAKER_00

If I see a red, I'm picking it up and bringing it up.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's that's his cup of tea. All right.

SPEAKER_00

I I'm gonna go a strong eight and a half. I would almost go a nine, but I know uh what I think I gave Smithwicks a ten. Yeah. Oh. That's your favorite. And uh that is my favorite, but I don't know. This would probably match up there with it. I mean, it's real close.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna go solid eight. I wasn't thinking the half points, but I see where you get it. Uh like I I don't wanna because I'm saying strong.

SPEAKER_00

So bad, but there's just something I get it, I get it. Something missing. Like, I don't know if it's just not the needs more caramel, the the you know what I mean, it doesn't have that real sweet caramel. But I kind of like the bready flavor. I I do too. I don't mind it. I not at all.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so to me that that's not that bad, you know. I I'll go at strong eight. If you want to meet go a little bit more, I'd meet you at eight and a half just because I think it leans that way.

SPEAKER_00

It definitely leans that way. I I mean, but you know, you stick with yours and strong eight. Yeah, I'll go, I'll do eight and a half all day long. Yeah, I mean it's it's a very good beer, and if you ever see it, I would definitely say try it, you know, for sure.

SPEAKER_01

And it comes in a four-pack. You purchased it at four packs, right? Yeah, yeah, it was a four-pack.

SPEAKER_00

And I think it wasn't horrible. No, yeah, price-wise like$10.99, maybe$12.99, something like that. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01

It's crazy when we pay pay so much for uh a four-pack, dude.

SPEAKER_00

And they taste like dirt or or yeah, yeah, you can't not, I wouldn't say dirt, but it tastes so bad, you're like I mean, you figure anything over seven and a half, seven percent. Yeah, you're getting up to twenties. You're paying twenty bucks for a fucking four pack. It's ridiculous.

SPEAKER_01

And some of them are hard. And they're rough, yeah. We were on that little kick with the uh imperial stouts there for a minute.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and Imperial stouts get yeah, especially a bourbon. You get a bourbon barrel, yeah. You're looking at 24, 24, 25 bucks for you could get two packs of these, yeah. Yeah, you could. I could drink more of these. I would get drink, I could actually drink these like all night. Yeah, back to back, back to back, not having an issue with it. And they're only five and a half percent. Yeah, I mean that's not bad.

SPEAKER_01

That's almost like this Bud Light that we have here, you know, or tranny fluid, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

If you haven't noticed tonight, we switched back to the tranny fluid just for the night. Yeah, just a little different taste.

SPEAKER_01

We we we realized that the camera puts weight on us anyway, so I don't have to drink that.

SPEAKER_00

We figure we're fat as fuck, anyways.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I told him at work today, I said, you know, because there was that fit for 50, whatever. Uh huh. You know, and I was like, no, I I I gave up. I was like, fuck it. My new thing is fat as hell for 55. Fat as hell for 55. Like, I want to see if I can be. I mean, I got five years to go, so I want to see if I can hit 300. You're on your way. I'm getting there. Oh, I need another fucking 100 pounds. 25 pounds.

SPEAKER_01

You'll be your new all-time record. Yep. Yeah that's funny.

SPEAKER_00

And and then that way I feel like when I lose it all again, then everybody'd be like, oh my god, you look so good. Can I get some of that Ricky Rink? Yeah. Oh my God. You know what? What a transformation. You know what?

SPEAKER_01

You know what that people say that it for every what 10 pounds around your belly, your dick grows an inch? Right. It's just because you can see it better.

SPEAKER_00

But well no, dude, mine's hitting my knee right now. Because you lost so much. You lose weight. So when you gain it, does it disappear? Yeah, it does. So I want to see it go become a turtle. You want to see it be a turtle and then grow back? Come on, ladies. Spin it like a helicopter. But I did find out, do you know what's the best game to play on a blind date? Oh no. Aye. Why Jenga? So you can tell your pullout game. You see how good your pull out. Baby, look how good I am. Don't worry.

SPEAKER_01

Don't worry, trust me.

SPEAKER_00

Trust me.

SPEAKER_01

I thought that was fucking funny. That is funny. Baby, trust me.

SPEAKER_00

Flips right out. And you see how I flick that.

unknown

Yep.

SPEAKER_00

Flipping skills. Flipping your bean. That skill is nice. I did it with my tongue. Don't worry, it's all landing on your belly. Or your chin. Whichever. Okay, no. I've got to take a minute for it to that one. Calm down a little bit. My stomach's hurting. You want me to tell the other joke? No. I'll have to tell the other joke because we're on the back of the house.

SPEAKER_01

We ate some amazing lasagna tonight.

SPEAKER_00

And then just beer wench brought some amazing lasagna. Yeah. And it lasagna and beer don't really mix much. It mixes well with it. Oh, the red. I mean, it was great eating and whatever, but now I feel like uh now I feel like the noodles are just expanding.

SPEAKER_01

What's left is expanding.

SPEAKER_00

I'll be 300 pounds by the time this beer's done. I have a good feeling.

SPEAKER_01

And then you can lose it and you get your pipe.

SPEAKER_00

I'll lose it tomorrow morning. It'd be great. By yourself. I feel like them uh I almost feel like them. Remember back in the day, the you put them uh what sea creatures in the water? And they would and they like you do the little thing and they'd swell up. Yeah, yeah. Yep. Nope.

SPEAKER_02

That's what you feel like.

SPEAKER_00

I feel like that right now. It's just swelling up in my belly. Wish it would go a little lower.

SPEAKER_01

It keeps swelling up in the wrong spot.

SPEAKER_00

How come they haven't came up with that yet?

SPEAKER_01

It's the word swells down sound. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

You know, that's a good reason. Yeah, it's like a Viagra or Blue Chew or whatever. Yeah. Yeah. Too bad they couldn't do it for the girls and make them swell up and tighten. Get tight. The reverse. The reverse.

SPEAKER_01

Dry it out. I wouldn't want to dry it out.

SPEAKER_00

It makes it tighter. Oh, yeah. Man, I might as well just use my hand.

SPEAKER_01

It's dry too. You can get that tight.

SPEAKER_00

I can get that real tight.

SPEAKER_01

Just pretend you're playing golf. That's how you get it.

SPEAKER_00

It's blurple by the time I'm done.

SPEAKER_01

Burple and damage. It's like choking it.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, we should probably get off this. Yeah. We're gonna get kicked off on YouTube really quick. We're just talking about golf. We're just golf. It's all about golf. The grip of our grip. How you hold it, how you swing it, how it hits your chest.

SPEAKER_01

I ain't gonna lie. This warmer weather wants me to play golf.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, dude, I want to play so bad.

SPEAKER_01

I was like thinking in my head, I wonder if we can go out. I wonder if we can go out. But the other day too wet. It's too wet. Yeah, it's too wet. They ain't gonna let anybody out. The other day, um I I came home and we had all that rain and it uh like all the leaves had buildup in the front. So I'm like, damn, all these leaves. So I pull the leaves up and I said, Well, I have that drain in the back. I better go check that because that thing's probably full leaves, right? Right, right. So I start walking back there, sinking and slipping and just I'm like, holy cow. I get back there, I finally clean. I had to come up all the way around the house because coming up, trying to come up that hill, I was sinking right so muddy.

SPEAKER_00

But anyways, and you have dogs, so I feel for you this time of year.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, for sure. Dead mud. Oh, I've been learning.

Ratings For The Irish Red

SPEAKER_00

I don't miss it at all. I mean, I miss my dog, don't get me wrong. I miss my dog completely, but I don't miss this time of year.

SPEAKER_01

I tell you what, you would not miss it. One time I let him out, and we have a golden, and his paws just suck up mud. Right. And he came in, and I feel bad for him, and I'm trying to clean his paws, and I'm like, I have to let you sit out here and dry off a little bit. Well, you got that do you got the fleshlight thing for his paws? No, because you uh what I learned from you is we made that half cut wipes. Yeah. Remember the wipes?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we used to make uh we would cut paper towels in half, and we would put di Don dish soap and a little bit of water. I don't not vinegar. No. Right? No, it was just Don dish soap and a little bit of water. And then We just let them set and they would soak up and then we just put them in uh plastic bags. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And then they come like instant wipes.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, they're yeah. And we just wipe off his feet with them all the time.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Now, one thing that also is useful is the that rugs that we came a couple years ago. These them rugs are lifesavers. Yes. They're like some Amazon TikTok thing.

SPEAKER_00

They have like super absorbing all over them. Yeah, they work great. They do work good. Yes, they do.

SPEAKER_01

Yep. They get in the dog paws. But what I do, you still get mud. Yep. Yep. But, anyways, the other two aren't so bad. The one he he's so old and that he barely goes out in the yard and does it. Right.

SPEAKER_00

He just stays on pavement.

SPEAKER_01

But let me tell you, with all that snow, the land mines out there. Yeah. There's a lot of land mines.

SPEAKER_00

You just wait till the mowing season. Start shooting them.

SPEAKER_01

I tell you what though, I I went out there and started cleaning them all up because there's so many. Because I don't want them to walk in that.

SPEAKER_00

Right, right. Yeah, and bring that in. Yeah. Now, what I did notice when we started making our own food. Yeah. And which you have three dogs. I it's not affordable for you.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's very and plus the time the time. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. But when we started making his own food, I never cleaned up shit again.

SPEAKER_01

Because he was burning it up? The rain. Oh, would disintegrate it.

SPEAKER_00

It would just disintegrate it because it was like all natural. You know what I mean? Like it was just chicken and corn and uh you know what I mean, stuff like that. It would just, you know, I would go out there to mow and whatever, and it it wouldn't be anything to pick up, really. Yeah. Like another rain, and it would just go away. It would be gone. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That's why your yard was so green.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, absolutely.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And because me. You'd be out there. I pissed shit out there. Yeah. That's the seat uses human fertilizer. I live on a farm. And then he drinks the water that goes through the ground.

SPEAKER_00

The basin.

SPEAKER_01

But, anyways, uh, what we'll do is we'll take a quick break. We're gonna jump into this other uh sour, hot, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Honey, sour. I'm not gonna lie, I did try it. I'm glad we did this one first because, like you said, yeah, and I think that's what my problem was this weekend is that we went back up to the hotel room and I was like, well, I'm gonna try one of one of each of these, why not? Whatever, and you know, we shared it, whatever, and uh, but I did the hot honey first, and that probably tainted it messed everything up, yeah. So this tastes a lot better, and I guess just for future references, don't do a sour and then a red. Do the red, then the sour. Then the sour.

Break And Reset

Hot Honey Mango Sour Opens

SPEAKER_01

Hey, did it help with panty remover? I mean, mine fell off pretty easy. Yours always falls off easy. The wind blow. Anyways, we'll be right back. Welcome back. I hope you got a nice ice cold one like we do. We didn't get the red light. It was green. So many. It didn't flip. Anyways, we got this. We're gonna jump into the hot honey mangoes.

SPEAKER_00

Hot honey mango sour. And this is the out of Wisconsin?

SPEAKER_01

Out of Wisconsin.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you smell the honey, you almost smell the heat a little bit. Oh, mine was foaming up. Oh yeah, you don't want to do this one before the other one.

SPEAKER_00

But now I'll let you finish. Do you got that back end taste?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, I know what you're talking about. There's almost like a chalky something. Yeah, it so uh Rick was saying during the break, he was like, hey, we've done something like this before where it leaves that something, something on the back end.

SPEAKER_00

And it I don't know, and I thought just said it it maybe it's the honey. Uh it might be the honey. Or the mango or the mango, it could be the mango. I think I think it tastes like that. There is definitely just a taste. I mean, it's still good. Don't get me wrong. I I did enjoy it. I do enjoy it. It I think it's a good beer. I'll tell you what, I like the sour on it. I love the it because it's not overpowering. No, no. Uh there's not there's not much spice to it. No, it's a very little heat.

SPEAKER_01

Very little heat. It's six percent, so it isn't that bad. It's just 0.5% stronger than the other one. Right.

SPEAKER_00

And then on tap, they're giving it uh 3.81. Which that's kind of high. Yeah, I mean, so out of five. So you know, almost four. Four yellow dots. Yeah. I mean, and it does have a little bit of a little bit of a spice to it. A little tickle in the back. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Not bad though.

Sweet Heat, Sour Balance, And That Aftertaste

SPEAKER_00

So on tap says, uh, what turn up the heat with a fiery twist of a fruit forward sour, ripe mango burst through a fat. Yeah, tart tangy base, which I get all that. You know, it it's a good beer.

SPEAKER_01

It's a good beer. I'll give it a minute, but I know what you're talking. The first sip, I got a, but it, you know, it mellows out. It mellows out a little bit, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So it's not as bad as yeah. But you know what I'm saying? Like, we had a beer one time that had that taste. And for some reason, I want to call, I want to say, to me, it just seems like it's it's fucking like turmeric or something. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01

Like some kind of it could be the combination of the honey and the mango and uh you know whatever that just makes us wrong. Because we've done this that three ingredients before honey, mango, and jalanero. And jalanero, and jalances. And we've done the jalapeno before. Yep. But yeah, but I don't remember the jalapeno having that. And typically the jalapeno have more of a smell and that, not and and no heat. No heat, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, just the taste. Yeah, just the taste.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah. But this you get a little bit of a a little heat on the the back. Right. We'll give it a, we'll give it a chance, you know. I'm not sure. I mean, I like the sour.

SPEAKER_00

I'm fucking, I I I actually really like this beer. I tell you right now, I would Jason keep a creep this. Absolutely. If I could go back down, go for another two and a half hour ride. Just do it. Just a just grab this. Yeah, I probably would. Like, I mean, it's I like it. It is pretty good. Yeah, I like it. I would fucking definitely keep it. Uh princess? I'm gonna give it a minute. Uh see if it sinks in a little bit. Yeah, see, uh I mean, I guess it depends on the princess, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. On this one, it is unique because you're talking sour, you're talking heat, you're talking habanero, a little bit of sweetness.

SPEAKER_00

So, I mean, me personally from it doesn't say jalanero. It doesn't, it's just hot honey. Oh. Hot honey mango. Oh, for some reason I don't know why you keep saying jalanero.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Anyways, it doesn't have no habanero in it.

SPEAKER_00

So it's just got hot ass honey. It's hot honey. But it tastes like uh uh habanero. It kind of yeah, you kind of get that.

SPEAKER_01

That's why I was probably thinking that, yeah. Well, I taste habanero and mango.

SPEAKER_00

Maybe it's just the honey, mango the hot honey and mango mix. It kind of brings out a habanero. Yeah. I like the can. I do too.

SPEAKER_01

It's kind of girlified though. Kind of girlified. I would I would probably I would probably say me being princess taste, I like it. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but your princess taste is not expanded. As expanded and it's not the true original. And it's not a true source sour. No, no. You know what I mean? It's not locking your jaw up. No. Now the first thing the first sip did get me a little bit. Okay. Yeah, it's to me it didn't. Like I was just oh my god. But I mean, I it's sweet on top of it. Yeah, it's good though. Yeah, it's gassy. It's gassy. Anyways, you ready for it's a lasagna.

SPEAKER_01

I think I would do that. Yeah, that wouldn't be bad. That wouldn't be bad. Yeah, I know. Smells like blue juice. You know, actually, in reality, I have slept in a bathroom before. I was in the military, right? And it was so dang cold outside, right? They had a hard building, you know, for a bathroom. Right. I'm like, damn, I can't take this cold anymore. I head over there, I open the door. There's about 30 guys up in there. Just all fucking high. All sleeping everywhere. Yep. Shoot, I just found me a little spot.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_00

No, probably younger, because I know better now. Yeah. Well, I can't, I can't do them. Like I gotta stick with my beer. Like I I start doing shots and it's all done over. It's all over.

SPEAKER_01

I I have because we'll go out and hang out with some people and they'll always say, Oh, do a nip, do a nip, do a nip, you know?

SPEAKER_00

And then no, there's a difference between a shot and a like, you know what I mean? Like taking little sips.

SPEAKER_01

No, but their sips are shots.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, no, yeah. No, I know.

SPEAKER_01

And then I keep saying, Oh, oh, make them half, make them half, and they're like, all right.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, no, I would have to say no. I I I've learned in my years that it uh it doesn't agree with me well.

SPEAKER_01

Well, it's hard for me to recover after eight shots.

SPEAKER_00

Well, yeah, that too.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, I mean, I would say they hate to say this, but on average, if we go and hang out with them people, I'm like six in.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I don't know. But then do you calm you calm down on the beers, though, evidently too, though. Well, I slow down. I'm not no, yeah, you slow away down, not like I'm a beer drinker, so like I never go on. I'm still I'm still drinking them like water, yeah, and then throw a couple shots on me. I'm like, yeah, no, there ain't no somebody's carrying me the fuck out. Or I'm sleeping in a portion. They know I'm carrying that 300 pounder. I'm sleeping in a porta potty for 10 grand. Drinking someone else's urine. Drinking somebody else's urine right out of the blue gate. The blue juice. Blue gate.

SPEAKER_01

Would you ever lie about a person to get them fired? Absolutely not. You wouldn't lie about a person? There was that one person you didn't like very much. I would never lie.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, there's still plenty of people there that I don't like. Yeah, like but I'm not gonna lie to get them fired. I mean, that's their livelihood. Yeah, I'm not gonna mess with their livelihood. I agree with you on that.

SPEAKER_01

Plus, I've you've ever been in a situation, I've learned over the past that if you you I even tell my um other people that are working with friends, I said, don't ever um elaborate. Because we like to say something and add to it, right? And then I said, be very careful with that because you're projecting your you know, opinion on your opinion on it and then they call you up to the plate and then say, Hey, you said this, this, this verbatim, because they got it word for word. Right. Then all of a sudden you add it to what his or her story was. Right. Now you look bad and your your credibility's bad. So I say never, never people do that.

Final Verdict On The Sour

SPEAKER_00

But they don't they don't mean to. They don't mean to, you know what I mean? And I'm not saying I haven't. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like I I probably have in the past, whatever. You know what I mean? Not not to get somebody fired or whatever, but just in conversation and you'd be like, oh, they got all mad, and they but they were stomping, and the person was like, Yeah, I got upset and I stood up quickly.

SPEAKER_01

Right.

SPEAKER_00

You know what I mean? Like it just Yeah. But at the end of the day, I don't ever want to see anybody get fired. Yeah. I mean, there's plenty of lazy ass people at our place.

SPEAKER_01

They get fired themselves.

SPEAKER_00

That it they exactly. Let them let them do them.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But you know, I mean, I agree with you.

SPEAKER_01

There is a they're feeding a family, they're feeding a family.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I don't I don't ever want to see anybody lose or I feel bad for them.

SPEAKER_01

And no you don't want people to do it to you.

SPEAKER_00

Well, yeah, yeah, I mean lie about it to get you fire.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, good luck. I believe too that this thing is is that uh proofs in the pudding, in other words, uh uh sh sh work ethics and working hard pay off. Absolutely versus someone talking the shit or talking the walk. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00

I mean, I I wanna I do want to say that when I first started there. No, when I first started there, I guess I somewhat threatened a person. Uh oh. Yeah. I could see that. But at the end of the g day, luckily there was a guy there that actually worked with me before too. Yeah. Excuse this is my second time around there. And he was the supervisor at the time, and he didn't take any credibility of anybody of what the guy was saying. But the guy was a shit starter. Yeah. You know, he was just a shit starter, whatever. And they knew that. And all I told him, and I told him in front of, like in the lunchroom, I was like, dude, keep my name out of your fucking mouth. Oh, you were like, What's his name? Yeah, no, I keep my wife's name out of the bomb. Yeah, yeah. Will Smith, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I was just like, dude, keep my name out of your fucking mouth.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That's all I'm saying.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. And and that's a threat.

SPEAKER_00

He said, and that that could yeah, he tried fouling. Oh, he threatened me. He threatened me. And I told him, I was like, Yeah, I told him, like, you have no reason to say my name. Yeah. Like me and you don't work together, we don't have to do anything. Yeah, I know what you're doing. He's just a little guy, dude. He's only like five foot. You like sealing it, so I was smacking.

SPEAKER_01

Doctor for me.

SPEAKER_00

Talking in the microphone.

SPEAKER_01

Anyways, let's rate this now that we've got some more of it down.

SPEAKER_00

So I don't know what like where do you want to put it at? Like, do you want to put it at a well it's saying sour el.

SPEAKER_02

It's a sour, so we're gonna have to put it a sour.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I I really do enjoy this beer. I like this beer a lot. I I'm gonna go nine. I I'm gonna go a nine. I know we've had some really good sours, but I I like the little bit of sweetness. I like the sweetened heat. The sweet and heat on it.

SPEAKER_01

I'll I um actually I'll go nine. I'll actually I don't it's pretty good. I am enjoying it a lot, so it's a solid nine.

SPEAKER_00

Uh I'll go nine. I I'll definitely like I say a nine. Yeah. It's a solid my taste buds.

SPEAKER_01

I'm kind of borderline with the princess. If uh as far as sours go, if you have your princess out there and you like sours, I think you're safe with this one. And you like heat.

SPEAKER_00

You gotta like you gotta like the heat though, too. That's the thing.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's where it gets a little rough. So we'll just stay away from the princess.

SPEAKER_00

You told me earlier cat wanted to try one. So I I would I you know what I mean. I would have liked to have known a woman's point of view. That would be true. Yeah. On it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

You know, she might she I think she would like it. Right.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Well, I I forget. We got a woman right here. What does she and so what's she's rubbing her titties.

SPEAKER_01

She likes it, so and and she's not a sour person. No, but but she said nine, not princess, though.

SPEAKER_00

I agree. Which I can agree with. I uh it's just gonna depend on the princess. And how they like it. And how they like it. But I mean, if you're kind of like girl, she might like it.
