- 1:12Speaker 2: It doesn't stick in the jaws.
- 1:14Speaker 3: You figured it'd be a little bit higher if it'd
- 1:16Speaker 3: be in the West Coast. It's only 5.6, though. Yeah,
- 1:19Speaker 3: that's got to help.
- 1:20Speaker 2: 45 IBUs. That's pretty good. Not bad.
- 1:24Speaker 3: Not a lot on the sniffer, though. Like, It's a
- 1:28Speaker 3: little hoppy.
- 1:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not picking up much here.
- 1:32Speaker 3: Good carbonation. I like that color.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Those might not be working today. I don't know.
- 1:35Speaker 1: Not bad.
- 1:40Speaker 3: It's kind of nice.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Dressing down the glass nicely.
- 1:44Speaker 3: When you have a West Coast, you can't just sit
- 1:47Speaker 3: back and just have a little... You know what I mean?
- 1:49Speaker 3: Just sit back and enjoy it.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Enjoy it.
- 1:51Speaker 3: It's kicking me in the teeth too hard.
- 1:53Speaker 2: This is not kicking in the teeth.
- 1:54Speaker 3: No, it's not bad at all.
- 1:55Speaker 1: No, this is ETX Brewing out of Tyler, Texas. We've
- 1:57Speaker 1: talked about this before, or their brewery before. You can
- 2:00Speaker 1: follow them on Facebook and Instagram at ETX Brew.
- 2:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the can there.
- 2:05Speaker 2: The can's pretty cool.
- 2:06Speaker 3: What do you think 1846 is? Am I missing something there?
- 2:09Speaker 3: I probably am.
- 2:10Speaker 2: I think there's something. Is that like when Tyler, Texas
- 2:12Speaker 2: was founded or something?
- 2:13Speaker 3: Maybe.
- 2:14Speaker 2: I don't know. Like anybody could even know that.
- 2:18Speaker 3: We've got the internet at our fingertips and just can't
- 2:21Speaker 3: figure it out.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 3: Our interpretation of a classic West Coast IPA, light-bodied, amber-based,
- 2:26Speaker 3: my only bitter way I did all that. Usually they'll
- 2:28Speaker 3: put like, oh, it's named after whatever. Yeah.
- 2:33Speaker 1: They got a ton of beers on tap. It's like
- 2:34Speaker 1: more than 18 craft beers on tap. It is quite
- 2:37Speaker 1: a bit.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Okay, here you go. It's a reference to 1846, the
- 2:41Speaker 2: year Texas officially became the 28th state in the United States. Okay.
- 2:48Speaker 3: So there you go. It became the 28th state? Yeah.
- 2:51Speaker 3: And we seceded and then we went back to them again.
- 2:54Speaker 2: I don't. Did we go back? Wait, we're supposed to
- 2:56Speaker 2: be seceding now. I don't know, man.
- 2:58Speaker 3: We are.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Texas officially joined the United States on February 19th, 1846. Yeah, I.
- 3:04Speaker 3: Think some other stuff happened since then. I don't know, man.
- 3:09Speaker 2: I'm just telling you. The Mexican-American War began in 1846
- 3:15Speaker 2: with much of the early conflict taking place along the
- 3:18Speaker 2: Texas-Mexico border after disputes over the The Rio Grande.
- 3:24Speaker 3: You said February 19th?
- 3:25Speaker 2: I did. Okay.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Yeah, the formal.
- 3:27Speaker 1: So, December 29th, 1845, U.S. President James Polk. My kid
- 3:32Speaker 1: went to school there. Signed a bill making Texas a state.
- 3:36Speaker 3: Boom. Yeah. And two months before then, Texas voters approved
- 3:41Speaker 3: a new state constitution and annexation.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:45Speaker 3: March 2nd, 1836, Texas declared its independence from Mexico.
- 3:49Speaker 2: You boys like Mexico?
- 3:51Speaker 3: Pretty cool place. It's pretty cool. Pretty cool.
- 3:58Speaker 2: Super Trooper 3 comes out in August.
- 4:00Speaker 3: I saw it. They got the extended cut or whatever
- 4:04Speaker 3: right now. Yeah, that's like an old Derek and stuff
- 4:07Speaker 3: like that. Yeah. Blowing out of the ground. Yeah, they
- 4:10Speaker 3: got the extended preview or something like that on Hulu.
