    Episode 15 - Hopslam, Awkward Science Questions & Summer Survival

    This week, Patrick shares some of the most memorable—and occasionally horrifying—reproductive questions he's fielded as a science teacher. Then we crack open Bell's Brewery's Hopslam, dive into the history of one of craft beer's most iconic seasonal releases, and give our ratings on the legendary double IPA. We wrap things up with some end-of-school-year summer musings, including car modifications, books we'll probably never read, and the unique challenge of working from home while the rest of the family is suddenly on vacation.

    Episode 14 - Futbol Ownership, Farmhouse Ale & Fallout Plans

    This week we kick things off with John’s “credit-union style” ownership stake in an Italian futbol club and the realization that modern sports ownership might be getting a little weird. Then we crack open Boulevard Brewing’s legendary Tank 7, break down why it became such a staple in craft beer, and give our ratings on the farmhouse favorite. We close things out debating who among us would actually survive the apocalypse and finish by naming the beers we’d create if we ever started our own brewery.

    Episode 13 - Scammed, Sipping TourBus & Beer Market Reality Check

    We kick things off with Patrick finally joining the club no one wants to be in - getting caught in an online scam - and the lessons (and laughs) that came with it. Then we crack open TourBus from DESTIHL Brewery, break it down, and give our ratings on this road-ready beer. We close things out with a look at the current state of the craft beer retail market before running it back with another round of Beerdle, this time with a “phone-a-friend” twist.

    Episode 12 - Backwoods Bastard, Beerdle & Questionable Parenting

    We kick things off with one of the strangest conversations we’ve ever had, a homicidal quadriplegic cornhole player, and somehow it only gets more normal from there. We crack open Backwoods Bastard from Founders Brewing and break down this bourbon barrel-aged classic before giving our ratings. Then we wrap things up with the subtle (and mostly innocent) ways we torture our kids, and debut a brand new game from Patrick: Beerdle. Instagram:⁠⁠⁠ 4BI⁠ Website: Founders Brewery

    Episode 11 - Too Much Curling, Pliny the Elder & Side Hustle Schemes

    We kick things off with the 2026 Winter Olympics and one big question: why is there so much curling? From there, we crack open the legendary Pliny the Elder from Russian River Brewing and talk about what makes it one of the most hyped IPAs ever. We close things out brainstorming our best (and worst) side hustle ideas, because who doesn’t want another way to make money… or lose time trying. Instagram:⁠⁠ 4BI Website: Russian River Brewing

    Episode 10 - First Cars, Lasting Damage & Side Project Anabasis

    We kick things off with a look back at our first cars, the questionable decisions we made behind the wheel, and what we’d actually trust our kids to drive today. Then we crack open Anabasis from Side Project Brewing, a massive barrel-aged barleywine that slows things down and gets us thinking a little deeper. We close things out swapping stories about the worst jobs we’ve ever had… the kind that build character whether you like it or not. Instagram:⁠⁠ 4BI⁠⁠ Website:⁠⁠ Side Project Brewing

    Episode 9 – Bluewood Brewing, Day Drinking & Online Gambling

    This week we stay local with Bluewood Brewing and crack open Sparkly Bits, a crisp Kölsch that proves sometimes simple beer done right is anything but boring. The conversation drifts into the fine art of day drinking - when it works, when it absolutely doesn’t, and the bad decisions powered by sunshine. We close things out discussing Missouri’s newly legal online gambling and why placing a bet somehow makes everything feel more intense. Instagram:⁠⁠ 4BI⁠⁠ Website:⁠⁠ Bluewood Brewing

    Episode 8 – Tree House Brewing, Hazy IPAs & Growing Up

    This week we crack into Tree House Brewing's Julius and start with some classic mindless banter, plus a few uncomfortable thoughts about inching closer to 50. The beer takes over as we talk East Coast IPA origins, hazy innovation, and the creative (borderline unhinged) ways people try to fly beer home. We wrap it up with the history of the beer can and finish strong with the childish guilty pleasures we refuse to grow out of. Instagram:⁠ 4BI⁠ Website:⁠ Tree House Brewing
