Episode 269: The Guys Interview Flying Dream Brewing

Jacob and Eddie headed to Marlboro, MA to interview the founder of Flying Dreams Brewing.   Interview: So on your website’s section “our story” it's basically just Dave Richardsons story…So what are your stories? Says here that Dave has won 35 awards. Does the website get updated every time a new award is won? Can you name all 35 awards? What’s the story behind the name? 2 locations: Worcester and Marlborough, MA. Looks like beer is brewed in Worcester and the taproom in Marboro. What’s the story with the two locations? *potential follow-up: Wormtown used to brew at the Worcester location How did the relationship with Wormtown Brewing begin? Are there any collabs with Wormtown? How have you guys dealt with the new normals amidst this pandemic? What’s your thoughts on the hard seltzer trend? Do you remember drinking your first craft beer? What was the first beer you brewed? What’s your favorite style of beer? What beer do you enjoy brewing the most? *If there was a beer you could brew with no regards to cost, production, or sales, what would it be and why? On collaborations, which brewery was the most fun to brew with? What beer was it? I may be retarded, but how do you pronounce “SYZYGY”? Why? Any shout out to any upcoming future brews It’s been over a year since the news section has been updated? What gives? Nothing going on over here? Yes, this interview is mostly based off your website and whatever google searches we pulled up. Name Style ABV Ratings Avg Dr. Equahtic #5 DIPA IPA - Imperial 9.1 3 4.52 Boroweizen Wheat Beer - Hefeweizen 5.2 2 4.44 Cream Ale Cream Ale 5.2 1 4.38 Eccentrica DIPA IPA - Imperial 8.9 1 4.37 Syzygy IPA - Belgian 6.9 4 4.33 Topics/Segments:   Game - Know your neighbor (local brewery beers, name the brewery)   War Castle (Redemption Rock) Shook Ones (Greater Good) Becky Likes The Smell (Bay State Brewing) Buddha’s Juice (Wormtown) Mass Soul (Wachusett) Hoppy Buffalo, DIPA (Milk Room Brewing, Rutland MA) Mass Hole (Wormtown) Famous Celebrities, Are they Marlboro or Worcester Bill Simmons (Marlboro) Jordan Knight (Worcester) Daniel B Wesson (Worcester) Aaron Dulbac (Marlboro - Converge and Bane) Carmella (Worcester - WWE) Marcia Cross (Marlboro - desperate housewives) Dennis Leary (Worcester)   LPT from Reddit: (updated 10/1/20)   When wearing a tie on a windy day, slip a coin down the inside of the hem to keep the tie from blowing around. When you sign up for anything online, put the website’s name as your middle name. That way when you receive spam/advert emails, you will know who sold your info.   Bad Yelp Review - Redemption:   Steven B. - Boston, MA (Worcester location) A very small, cozy brewery located next to a restaurant. I recommend the tasting as you will get to keep your sample glass. The samples you get to try will vary from day to day depending on which beers are on tap.   Concession IPA- Bitter and hoppy. Unfortunately, I did not find this IPA terribly appealing.   Double bock--Caramel and whiskey. Like a barley wine. Nice smooth finish.  This was the highlight of the tasting.   Cafe session stout--thinner consistency than most stouts. Distinct Coffee complexity. Reminds me of cold brew. It's a refreshing stout.   Double Mando DIPA--Strong hoppy flavor with a nice bitterness that lingers in the tongue. Pine note. Thin consistency. Decent DIPA.   Park Ave porter--a little malty but not much. But, I found the flavor dull and watery. Satisfactory, but not much going on here.   Like most breweries, the brews can be hit or miss. Double Bock alone is worth a visit. Flying Dreams gets a recommendation. came here by accident, meant to go to the Worcester location. I personally was on the hunt for their sour beers but none were on tap so I asked for water while my boyfriend got drinks. There were 4 of us in total here and the girl never came back with my water or to check in on my boyfriend. He finally put his empty glass very obviously forward so he could get another beer and she came. I asked for water again and never got it. I get its a brewery and perhaps I annoyed her by not drinking l, but blatantly ignoring 50% of your customers sucks. it's also in an odd space with lawyers offices. Casey L. - Quincy, MA (Marlborough location)

Episode 268: The Guys enjoy some @hillfarmstead and a collab with @vitaminseabrew and @jwakefieldbeer     LPT from Reddit:   When hired for a new job, copy the list of responsibilities they provide you and save it in a folder with your resume. This will make it easier to complete an application the next time you look for a job when the employer asks what your last job duties were. Don’t be afraid to splurge a little bit on a few luxury items from the grocery store that may dissuade you from eating out, and act as a reward for saving money and (probably) eating healthier. (The cost of a meal purchased at the grocery store is on average far cheaper than a similar meal via fast food, takeout, or (especially) delivery. If you can afford it, splurging a little bit on a good steak, or specialty produce at the grocery store may prevent you from eating out as often, so you’ll save money and experience higher quality food compared with a similarly priced meal from a restaurant.)     Beer news:   Anheuser-Busch Wins the Regulatory Go-Ahead to Acquire Craft Brew Alliance The Department of Justice gave its approval on Friday, Sept. 18 for Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) to move ahead with its acquisition of Craft Brew Alliance (NASDAQ:BREW) -- or what Craft Brew calls an "expanded partnership." The deal been in limbo since February, when an antitrust examination began, but has now cleared a major hurdle on the way to closing. The approval is contingent on the two parties' agreement to sell the Hawaiian operations of Kona Brewing to PV Brewing Partners, LLC. Craft Brew Alliance and Anheuser-Busch suggested the divestiture back on June 10 as a way to "expedite the regulatory review process and alleviate potential regulatory concerns." Anheuser-Busch InBev and Craft Brew Alliance will grant PV Brewing Partners a perpetual license to brew and market Kona beer in Hawaii, along with selling it a new brewery with a capacity of 100,000 barrels and other Kona facilities in the state. Anheuser-Busch has owned a 31% stake in Craft Brew since 2016, but the deal will give it 100% ownership, paying $16.50 per share to Craft Brew's shareholders at closing. CBA's shares ended Friday trading up 6% on the news. Anheuser-Busch's Brewers Collective president Marcelo Michaelis said the beverage giant expects the combination "to help fuel the growth of the craft beer category" in the "competitive and dynamic" American beer market.

Your name is very similar to former Celtics guard Shane Larkin. Thoughts? How did you get started? Where did you get the name? You guys are based in Cranston, RI. Which do you prefer: Breaking Bad or Malcolm in the Middle? Cranston has a bit of a reputation in Rhode Island, do you ever run into any crazies? In our previous shows we’ve had some great stories about drunk people in the taproom? Do you have any such stories? Ask about the beers everyone is drinking (and all beers they brought) You have beers called “You Thirsty” New England IPA and “Extra Thirsty” Triple IPA - when it comes to hydration do you recommend these as a replacement for water? My co-host who isn’t here was recently at a wedding rehearsal dinner in Sturbridge, MA and all the beer glasses in the restaurant were Revival Brewing glasses. Do you think that’s cool? Your website says you host Dungeons and Dragons games every Monday? Has anyone ever accidentally crossed over to “The Upside Down?” Halloween season is here. BOO! Did that scare you? Do you ever do limited edition spooky beers or events in the tasting room? We’ll give you 60 seconds to talk about anything you’d like   35:00 - 40:00 - Your Beers in Other Words: Revival Astronomy Kid - Star Child Pilsner Twice Dark - Double Black IPA Finger Promise - Pinky Swear Berliner Weisse Romeo’s main squeeze - Juliette Imperial Stout Defunct Rhode Island amusement park - Rocky Point Red Ale Celebratory Dance chain - Conga Imperial IPA Bum Bum Time - Fanny Session IPA Ivory Zzzzzzzzzap - White Electric Coffee Stout   40:00 - 45:00 Try Jacob’s Beer Peeing is allowed during this segment Jacob and Ted explain the beer Revival tries the beer - the group discusses taste, brewing process, etc. Bring audience members up to try it Ask Revival guys for advice Remind everyone about buying Revival beer and the raffle Thank Revival   45:00 - 60:00 Interview Kelsey Have Kelsey try Jacob’s beer (if there’s any left) and review it You are one half of The Brewery Babes. Does that make you “The Brew” or “ery Babes?” Could you explain for the people here and listeners the idea behind The Brewery Babes? You and your partner in crime have the name first name. What’s the most awkward thing that’s happened because of that? What was the worst-rated brewery you ever reviewed? What was the brewery you liked the most that the other Kelsea didn’t like? What’s better: going to a brewery or going to a beer festival? Who is your idol? Pumpkin beers: yay or nay? You have a section on your Instagram named “sexy beers.” What makes a beer sexy? You guys once did a poll about the best beer podcast but I don’t think we ever saw the results. Does that mean we lost? We have a big race coming up. Do I stand a chance? How can people find your stuff? 60:00 - 62:00 Remind people about buying Revival and getting in the raffle Ask Kelsey which Revival beer she’s drinking and if she would buy it, hope someone else supplies it or straight up deny it. See if she remembers what her suggestion for the fourth option was. 62:00 - 75:00 Is It Wet?

Other random banter inbetween   10:00 - 35:00 - Welcome Black Hat to the stage / Interview BH I want to get this out of the way first. You two are brothers, and when we first met you were wearing matching Iron Maiden tee shirts and claim it was not on purpose. Can you explain that to the audience? How did you get started? Where did you get the name? What does it mean to be a gypsy brewer? So if people didn’t like you enough to let you brew in their place you couldn’t succeed? We always wonder about how breweries name their beers, what are some of the great names you have? What type of beers do you brew? How much money would it take to get you to work a regular job instead of being a brewer? How much of your life is spent brewing? How early in the process do you know if a beer is going to be good or bad? Which cartoon character would be the best at brewing and why? How come there are no sitcoms about breweries? What do you love so much about brewing and beer in general? Favorite beers of your to drink? In our previous shows we’ve had some great stories about drunk people in the taproom? Do you have any such stories? Comedians have to deal with hecklers. What’s the equivalent for brewers? Do you get pissed if someone sends a beer back? How come brewery websites make you confirm you’re 21 just to see the website? Explain the upcoming South Shore Brew Fest? Who’s going to be there?

What draws you to comedy? We see your artistic interpretations of comedians you do at the shows you’re at. How did that start? What do you look for for inspiration? Since you always have the best answers at the pick a side stupid debate, we figured we’d ask you some debate-style questions. You just spilled your beer. Do you: find a straw and try to suck it up off the bar OR order two beers in case it happens again Which beers make better friends: your Buds or your Buds light? YES or NO: If an IPA has lots of hops, does that mean it can jump over a stout? What’s more likely: a high-gravity malt liquor smoking a lot of weed, or a Pilsner developing an opioid addiction? Who is more deserving of the beer that is named after them: Sam Adams or Tom Green? You’ve been accused of murder and it’s the day of the big trial: do you get drunk before? Yes or no? Would you rather have no friends and have to drink by yourself or have friends but none of you can drink? 62:00 - 75:00 Saddle Scales JJ explains what this is (animal is named, we rate 1-10 on how well you could ride the animal with a saddle) Lion Walrus Dolphin Ape Leatherback sea turtle Giant rat Michael J.
