- 1:50Speaker 2: have every single season. Every Oktoberfest.
- 1:53Speaker 1: It's a little sweet. It's got a little sweetness to it.

- 2:13Speaker 1: matches the gold of the beer. Yeah. I mean, this
- 2:19Speaker 1: is just one of those beers that just checks every box.
- 2:24Speaker 2: It's a purity law beer out there, isn't it?
- 2:26Speaker 1: Yes.

- 2:45Speaker 2: this is a solid beer. Gotta have it every year. It's,
- 2:47Speaker 2: it's how you kick. You know, it's, uh, I think
- 2:49Speaker 2: Oktoberfest started what last weekend or the week before that
- 2:52Speaker 2: last weekend. Yeah. Last weekend. And so.
- 2:56Speaker 1: You got some of the other local Oktoberfest all kind
- 2:58Speaker 1: of happening. Uh, I think there's some more happening this weekend. But,
- 3:04Speaker 1: I mean, it's just, I don't know. I love the
- 3:08Speaker 1: Oktoberfest season. I love the beers. They're all simple. They're
- 3:14Speaker 1: simple beers, but they're great. Oh, yeah. There's nothing, they're
- 3:19Speaker 1: not tricking up beers or anything like that. You're just
- 3:22Speaker 1: making a damn good beer. And they're good at it.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Yeah. You know?
- 3:28Speaker 1: Paul and hers have been open since 1634, right? So
- 3:33Speaker 1: they've been making beer for a little while.
- 3:36Speaker 2: And according to this is the Hell's Lager, which we
- 3:38Speaker 2: love Hell's Lagers. Oh, yeah. Fest beers are amazing. Big
- 3:43Speaker 2: fans of that. You know, the other one, I don't
- 3:46Speaker 2: want to say traditional Oktoberfest, but what you see for
- 3:49Speaker 2: Oktoberfest beers are Marcins.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Marcins are Fest beers.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Yeah. See, I'm a Fest beer guy. Marzins are fine,
- 3:57Speaker 2: but I prefer fest beers.
- 4:00Speaker 1: I think I prefer the Marzins. I like that little
- 4:03Speaker 1: bit of that darkness. That little darkness.
- 4:06Speaker 2: It's too sweet.
- 4:07Speaker 1: A little sweet, but more full-flavored. I like more full-flavored beer.
- 4:14Speaker 1: It gets you a little bit more on the mouthfeel
- 4:17Speaker 1: on that one, the darker ones.
- 4:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I can take Hellos down to Poundtown. Like a brutal...
- 4:25Speaker 2: brutal at a hell of that one year. And we're
- 4:28Speaker 2: just sitting there. I got the shirt on too, like
- 4:30Speaker 2: their anniversary. And I was like, yeah, they had that
- 4:32Speaker 2: hell spirit out there. I was like, boy, I just
- 4:34Speaker 2: went down to pound town, caught her tonight with that thing. Boy,
- 4:38Speaker 2: I tell you what I was at all night, all day,
- 4:40Speaker 2: all night with that thing.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Well, and it's, it's the lower ABV, right? Uh, we're
- 4:46Speaker 1: dealing with 4.9% on this one. So it's not something
- 4:49Speaker 1: super high. Um, but it's just, I don't know. It's just,
- 4:53Speaker 1: it's just, and delicious.
- 4:55Speaker 2: It's a classic.
- 4:56Speaker 1: The average scores were on untapped on this on untapped.

- 5:11Speaker 2: and fifty nine thousand four hundred and four times.

- 6:06Speaker 2: breweries around the country.
- 6:07Speaker 1: I'm not taking shots at anybody. I'm just saying, you know,
- 6:12Speaker 1: we got to have a beer that's inspired by RoboCop,
- 6:15Speaker 1: Ninja Turtles, and we went ahead and we threw 52
- 6:19Speaker 1: Kiwi Lime.

- 6:54Speaker 2: me the purity law. Give me some beers like this
