  Speaker 1: you don't want to help me drink this beer. It's a,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: it's a tall boy. If you want some, she's I'm good. Well,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: all right. Then if you don't want to help me,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that's fine. All right.

  Speaker 2: I guess I'll drink it all.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I'll drink it myself. Yeah. So October.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: October fest starts this weekend, which is great. Roast everybody.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Hope everybody has a good, safe time. I've never been,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: I wanted, always wanted to go, but I just, I've
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: never gone. And I don't know if I will now,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: but yeah, it's crazy. Now, we always like to do
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: food pairings. We'll talk more about the beer here in
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: a second, but we love the food pairings, right?
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I know you're going to get two of these. I
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: don't know about the rest. So you're not going to
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: get the rest, actually. Give me two of the food pairings.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Brats.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Grilled bratwurst or sausages. Pretzel. Soft pretzels with mustard. Well,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: with mustard, according to this. I know you don't like mustard.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I'll get a little bear cheese going with it. What
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: else would it pair well with?
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: It's... You're just not going to get it. It's pan-fried
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: white fish and light salads. Or light salads.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: The last one is a cheese. It's not your normal cheese.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: It's a funny-sounding cheese, but it's aged. How about that?
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Funny sound... I think Funny Sounding and Havarti sticks out
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to me.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: It's not that. I thought you were going to go great.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I thought you were going to nail this one, too.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Aged Gouda. Gouda. Gouda's another one.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Havarti always sticks out to me as a funny cheese name.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. Havarti and Gouda.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Gouda.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like Buddha, but it's Gouda.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is my time of the year. Love Pilsners.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Love Fest beers and things like that. Um, anytime they
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: bring out the, the, the pills or whatever, you always
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: got to have that light drinking, uh, easy drinking fast
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: beer because it's lower ABV. You're out there, you're in
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the tent. You're just out there just enjoying yourself. You're
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: knocking back those big ass, uh, you know, what do
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: they call them? It's like a Steins, you know, knocking
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: back those giant Steins.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: You're drinking, you're singing songs, you're making friends. You're just,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: you're living your best life is what you're doing.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. And they're easy drinking. So it's like, you know,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: if you're going to get to the 32 ounces or not,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: they're not coming in 30, they're in a 32 ounce Stein,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: but you're getting about, you know, 26 ounces out of
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that baby. But, uh, you know, if it gets a
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: little bit more as you're drinking, you know, you're talking
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a lot, you're singing a lot. It's all right. This
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: beer is this, this beer can be rodeo cool and
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: you're just fine. I do like the distinct taste at
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the end though, that, that, that dry finish. I like
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: that a lot. I love the color of the smell. Oh, buddy.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: And we have the Oktoberfest versions of these things. But
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of the Oktoberfest versions are, they're the darker color,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the malty ones. You know what I mean? So they're the,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: it's not, what's it called, Alan? It's not Fastbeard, it's
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the other one. Oh, my God. It's the copper colored ones.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: We went absolutely blank. Unbelievable.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Marzins.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Marzins. There you go. There you go. Marzins.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I was like, what the hell?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I like Mars's, but sometimes they get a little too sweet.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: These kind of beers, these are the ones you can
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: knock back and enjoy yourself, have yourself a good night.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: But yeah, no, this is easy drinking. It's light looking.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: It's not light beer, though. Let's be honest. It's not,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: but it's low ABV. It's got a nice flavor to it.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: You know, light beer gets a little thin. This beer
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: isn't thin. It's thin compared to some things. It's very flavorful. Yeah,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: it's got a lot of flavor. Oh, that's okay. There
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: you go.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Yep.
