  Blast off, we are back banging beers.
• 0:12
  Last beer of the night. I'm not going to lie, I'm a
• 0:15
  little buzzed. I'm kind of sipping on a little
• 0:18
  there. Loco, wasn't it?
• 0:21
  Yeah, I'm going to be a little cross faded too at the end of
• 0:23
  this because we're going to go and enjoy a little Blazing Buds,
• 0:25
  which we record tomorrow, by the way.
• 0:26
  That's right. But we are recording this last
• 0:29
  one of the night. We're getting a bunch of content
• 0:31
  out. But this last one is the Red
• 0:33
  Velvet Porter from Ithaca Brewing Company.
• 0:38
  Let's talk about them. They are from Ithaca, NY.
• 0:41
  They are a regional brewery. They average a 3.65, so they're
• 0:46
  right under that four. They are untapped and they have
• 0:50
  a Twitter RNX, a Facebook, a Instagram and a website.
• 0:54
  ethicompir.com two 796,000 check Insurance 256 unique.
• 1:02
  I don't know what unique is. We have to.
• 1:04
  Research that means unique being like.
• 1:06
  Google it. Google what is the unique check
• 1:08
  in? On top that means like somebody
• 1:10
  who. Don't guess who.
• 1:10
  Is by himself. I don't know where my phone is.
• 1:13
  Google this later. Well look, I always forget to
• 1:16
  look that up. 23.8 K likes I've had one Ithaca beer.
• 1:21
  I feel like there's more I feel like I've had more of them.
• 1:23
  But Ithaca Brewing Company specializes in brewing world
• 1:26
  class craft beer farm to table American style fair is served in
• 1:30
  our lively and modern brew pub restaurant.
• 1:32
  In addition to a year round favorites of our popular flower
• 1:36
  power ipai had that you also choose your new 5 barrels of
• 1:41
  beer a special Thursday night cast a seasonal selection on a
• 1:45
  rotation in our taproom. Enjoy dining indoors on our on
• 1:49
  our patio and lawn in the warmer months.
• 1:52
  Brewery tours are available on weekends by reservation.
• 1:57
  I wonder it's flower power the one I checked in that'd be
• 1:59
  hilarious. It is.
• 2:00
  It is flower power fry Ithaca that is like the go to
• 2:03
  quintessential like craft beer. I feel like a lot of people have
• 2:08
  experienced flower power, especially not.
• 2:11
  My assumption? Hold on, wait a minute, wait a
• 2:12
  minute. So to answer your question on
• 2:15
  untapped, total check insurance refers to the overall number of
• 2:18
  times a beer has been checked in, while unique users refers to
• 2:21
  the number of distinct users who have checked in that beer.
• 2:23
  So the beer itself has been checked in what was it like
• 2:26
  700,000 times, but it has been checked in by a total of 300,000
• 2:31
  viewers. Got you.
• 2:32
  So in for that case they're. Almost 800,000 times it's been
• 2:36
  checked in unique people, so almost 256,000 people have
• 2:40
  checked it in 796,000 times. That makes sense.
• 2:43
  So unique is the people. Yeah.
• 2:45
  And out of those 256,000, only 23,000 of them hit the like
• 2:50
  button. So fix that on tap.
• 2:52
  Users fucking like these guys. It's like YouTube.
• 2:54
  People go on and they watch a video, but they don't hit the
• 2:57
  thumbs up. They don't hit the subscribe.
• 2:58
  You're fucking us. What are you doing?
• 3:00
  You're fucking us. We're.
• 3:01
  Working hard here. They're making beers, we're
• 3:04
  drinking the beers, making content.
• 3:06
  These cameras and microphones aren't cheap.
• 3:07
  Hit a goddamn. Button no means.
• 3:10
  I'm gonna hit the button because that would be fucked up if I
• 3:12
  didn't, right? I was.
• 3:14
  Like, oh wait, how come you haven't?
• 3:15
  Liked the man though. I hit it.
• 3:18
  I hit it, I swear. Apricot wheat.
• 3:20
  I had that one. I'm just looking at their beers
• 3:23
  here, see if there's any of that that's that stand out for us.
• 3:27
  That fugly sweater sounds fun. A dark lager.
• 3:30
  I probably won't like it. You would like the darker 1?
• 3:33
  Maybe we make it, maybe take a trip up to Ithaca, NY and have
• 3:36
  some beers. But this one is the Red Velvet
• 3:39
  Porter. This is the one I got at the
• 3:40
  cake Santa Monica City. I bought this for Lily because
• 3:43
  she likes darker beers and I don't.
• 3:45
  So when I go got beers, I get the ones I like and then I try
• 3:48
  to get her a darker beer that she'll be into.
• 3:50
  And also Red Velvet Cake is delicious and it's something
• 3:53
  we've had. It's my favorite as her
• 3:55
  favorite. And we've had tea parties with
• 3:57
  her daughters that we ate Red Velvet Easy Bake oven cake and
• 4:00
  they poisoned it. Wait a minute, They didn't
• 4:03
  poison the cake, they poisoned the Kool-aid tea with the cake.
• 4:07
  Yeah, it was a whole thing. I almost died.
• 4:09
  It was a whole scenario. 732 people checked this in at a
• 4:13
  3.663 of my friends checked in 2.83.
• 4:17
  It is cocoa coffee ish chocolate dry thin Porter brewed with
• 4:22
  cocoa powder, natural flavor and artificial color.
• 4:26
  My dad checked this in and gave it a two point. 70 It does have
• 4:29
  like a red color to it that he didn't notice.
• 4:31
  Before he gave it a 275, he did not.
• 4:33
  He was not a fan of this. Another friend here gave it a
• 4:36
  1.75 Velvet Porter. Yeah, there's a little bit of a
• 4:40
  red tint to it. Yeah, she put a flashlight to
• 4:43
  it. I'll.
• 4:43
  Do it for the camera and so y'all.
• 4:45
  Can and Steve M gave it a four. So you already had this one,
• 4:50
  Lily. No, I haven't.
• 4:52
  You've been waiting for this. You drank a can of it.
• 4:56
  I think you and your dad had one the last time he was here, but I
• 4:58
  don't think I've. Had it.
• 4:59
  I think you're full of it. I think I gave you I've.
• 5:01
  Been I have been excited for this for quite some time and
• 5:04
  every time we go to drink this so we get I get stuck with a no,
• 5:06
  let's do a four. Smells amazing.
• 5:08
  Smells amazing. Oh oh, cheers.
• 5:16
  So for me, every dark beer tastes like coffee.
• 5:20
  I know I say this all the time. It does.
• 5:21
  I drink it. I just get roastiness.
• 5:23
  I get coffee. So I'm not getting anything red
• 5:26
  velvet with this. You don't get the cocoa at all.
• 5:31
  No. I will say no, I do get the
• 5:36
  cocoa flavored. I think to make it more red
• 5:40
  velvet I would probably add vanilla to it just so it had
• 5:44
  like the cream cheese icing, you know what I mean?
• 5:46
  When I like red velvet cake, I like the cream.
• 5:48
  I think the cream cheese is what makes the red velvet.
• 5:51
  Better it kind of, it kind of it accentuates the flavor almost.
• 5:55
  And I think that's the, as far as the red velvet goes, that's
• 5:58
  what I think is missing because red velvet, I wouldn't cake
• 6:01
  cocoa. Yeah.
• 6:02
  It's just red chocolate cake. Yeah, it's cocoa powder mixed
• 6:05
  with red food coloring that makes it like a red chocolate.
• 6:07
  And then you slather in some cream cheese and call it a good
• 6:10
  day. Yeah.
• 6:11
  So I think that's where I'm. Mixing So instead of being so a
• 6:13
  chocolate cake is usually made like with milk chocolate dark
• 6:16
  chocolate. This is just made with cocoa
• 6:17
  powder. My second taste, and I will say
• 6:20
  this too, we poured. These which cocoa is more of a
• 6:22
  bitter taste, I will say that. Yeah, I do get the bitter
• 6:24
  chocolate taste a little bit more now that I'm.
• 6:27
  So another trick to this too is I hold my glass a lot to warm it
• 6:30
  up because usually with darker beers and quarters, the more you
• 6:33
  let it aerate. So if we would have drank this
• 6:35
  and drank it out of a can, I feel like a lot of that flavor
• 6:37
  is going to be trapped and that's why I pour it.
• 6:39
  And if you notice, we save the darker beer for last because
• 6:42
  it's not going to be as cold and more flavor is going to come
• 6:44
  out. It's a little trick, a little
• 6:46
  trick to the tray. Do you?
• 6:49
  Which percent is this one? It is a 7%.
• 6:54
  Taste. It tastes good.
• 6:55
  You taste the booziness. It's not so much.
• 6:58
  I don't taste. Booziness.
• 6:59
  It's not that I taste the booziness, but I will say this.
• 7:05
  I tend to like the stronger beers.
• 7:08
  So I feel like, for instance, the blonde, to me tasted watery,
• 7:11
  like it doesn't have that full flavor.
• 7:13
  I like that full flavor. Yeah.
• 7:15
  So I will say that, like, maybe not so much that it's boozy, but
• 7:18
  I can tell that I'm not going to be able to drink this so
• 7:20
  quickly. You know what I mean?
• 7:22
  Yeah, I'm not going to give it a score because once again, it's
• 7:24
  not a style or. Just download it on tap so that
• 7:26
  I can do this. No.
• 7:27
  Well, we'll. I will be giving it a score,
• 7:30
  yeah. By the time you downloaded
• 7:33
  everything would be out of this video, so I'm not going to score
• 7:36
  it because I don't want to ruin your guys average and I don't
• 7:38
  want to make you guys look bad because that's not my objective
• 7:40
  here. I'm going to be honest.
• 7:42
  I don't hate it. I've been drinking it as we've
• 7:44
  been going. I can go back I'm.
• 7:46
  Surprised that you're still drinking?
• 7:47
  I can go back and take more drinks.
• 7:48
  I I am now pulling more of the coffee taste on.
• 7:51
  It's me, I'm broken. I everything tastes like coffee
• 7:54
  to me when it's darker beer burp.
• 7:57
  Let's talk about this real quick.
• 7:59
  Cakes is red Velvet Hot is not your number one.
• 8:01
  Red velvet is my number one. So actually this past year, I
• 8:05
  don't really celebrate my birthday often, I'll say that.
• 8:09
  But this past year I celebrated it here with you and your
• 8:14
  family. And your mom was like, what kind
• 8:17
  of cake is your favorite? And I was like red velvet and
• 8:19
  she bought me a red velvet. It wasn't a cake, it was a.
• 8:22
  Roll. It was a roll and to me, any
• 8:26
  flavor red velvet, whether it's a cupcake, whether it's in a, in
• 8:29
  a cake roll or an actual cake, like that's the best.
• 8:32
  And this is The funny thing about it.
• 8:34
  You're asking you're like, oh, it's Coco.
• 8:36
  I don't like chocolate cake. I don't like chocolate ice
• 8:38
  cream. I don't like chocolate flavored
• 8:40
  things. I don't like chocolate milk.
• 8:43
  I like chocolate in bar form. It's pretty crazy.
• 8:46
  I don't like, I don't know, it's just to me if I had a chocolate
• 8:49
  cake, it would be too rich. Same thing ironically is red
• 8:53
  velvet cake is super rich but I feel like I could sit and eat a
• 8:58
  whole red velvet cake or a red velvet cheesecake or whatever
• 9:01
  like so. My number one confetti cake.
• 9:04
  Confetti cake. Love me some confetti cake.
• 9:07
  Some confetti cupcakes. Good vanilla icing on that.
• 9:10
  It's almost like a dunkaroo. OK, I like me some Dunkaroo.
• 9:16
  So you like the white confetti cake?
• 9:18
  The ice? Have you had like the icing?
• 9:20
  It's the icing more than anything.
• 9:21
  If you could just make a bowl of dunkaroo icing and put that on
• 9:24
  every. Piece I know the question as
• 9:25
  well. Oh man, what cake do you like?
• 9:27
  But do you prefer actual icing or buttercream icing or like
• 9:33
  buttercream icing? Or what's a fasting or what the
• 9:35
  whipped icing? Would have to.
• 9:36
  You would have to. Break that down.
• 9:36
  So like the kind that has like more of a thickness to it or the
• 9:39
  kind that melts when you touch it?
• 9:41
  Probably melt. OK, so you're more of like a
• 9:44
  whipped icing buttercream icing baby I.
• 9:47
  Don't know. All right, well, that'll do it.
• 9:49
