- 1:59> Julianna>Hey, everyone, welcome, um, to another sud segment where we aren't afraid of haunted houses or creepy cemeteries at night. No, no. The only places that scared us are, uh, beer stores that put shark top in the craft section and breweries that talk more about their food than their beer. Okay, I'm scared.
- 2:27> Dave>I am scared because I did not think. I honestly.
- 2:31> >No, listen, honestly, she's never done that before.
- 2:34> Dave>I honestly believe that good old boy Mike did the worst fake accents, like, in the history of the world.
- 2:41> >At least the continuity of.
- 2:44> Dave>Of you.
- 2:44> >Of doing pathetic accent. You destroyed it. She has. She has joined the club.
- 2:49> Dave>That was potential. Like, I don't know what part of the world you thought you were in.
- 2:53> >I mean, I feel that we have offended a whole new group of people.
- 2:57> Dave>I think several. Because she was. She was in Latin America for a little bit. I think she was in the Balkans. Um, she might. She might have, like, wandered into somewhere in Asia. Yeah. And she probably offended someone in the northeast as well.
- 3:13> >Absolutely. They are four pissed off Canadians going, dude, seriously, this is offensive.
- 3:19> Julianna>You are welcome.
- 3:20> >I'm sorry.
- 3:20> Julianna>You are so welcome.
- 3:22> Dave>I have no idea what's going on.
- 3:23> Julianna>I'm so proud to take up this mantle.
- 3:26> >Don't change the channel yet. We actually have some really cool things.
- 3:29> Dave>Stuff might happen.
- 3:31> >Stuff might happen. That's right.
- 3:32> Julianna>All right, you guys are rude. Um, I'm one of your hosts. Good o gal Juliana. And joining me at the table today is good ol boy Mike.
- 3:40> >Well, I could aspire to offend, uh, a whole new group of people, but Julianna has done such a great job of that and taking that off my shoulders. I'm so happy. All I have to say is one, one Pissed off host here today.
- 3:54> Dave>So, yes, I, uh, I give my credit. I thought he was going to be too intimidated to do a fake accent after that.
- 4:03> >No, I'm sorry. You just said Mike intimidated.
- 4:06> >Those are two words.
- 4:07> Dave>He took it as a challenge.
- 4:09> >Yes. I think our beverages in front of us are intimidating enough, so.
- 4:12> Julianna>Hi, good old boy Dave.
- 4:14> Dave>Hey. This is how I really sound.
- 4:18> Julianna>Whatever.
- 4:18> >Sadly, one. One redneck from.
- 4:25> Julianna>Nice. Okay, fall is here, folks, and the weather is finally starting to cool down.
- 4:32> >Sort of football time in Tennessee.
- 4:34> Julianna>It is about time.
- 4:35> Dave>Roll tide.
- 4:36> Julianna>The store. Who are you? That's gross.
- 4:42> Dave>I could have said anchor down, I guess.
- 4:43> Julianna>Okay, that's a little better than that. That's whatever. The stores are full of pumpkin beer, pumpkin bread, pumpkin coffee, creamer, everything. And there's an abomination known as candy corn. And it's just running rampant.
- 5:02> Dave>It's right in your face.
- 5:03> >Is it corn? Is it candy? Is it candy corn?
- 5:06> Julianna>Or is it something else? Yes. Well, it must be getting close to Halloween. I mean, it's gotta be, right? One could hope.
- 5:15> Dave>I'm too scared to tell.
- 5:17> >Hold my hand.
- 5:18> Julianna>Oh, geez. With that in mind, we found a collection of ciders that we hope don't taste as scary as they look. Groupo de. I like how I said your name and the screaming started.
- 5:36> Dave>I get that from a lot of girls.
- 5:38> Julianna>Um, please tell us more.
- 5:41> Dave>I can't with you right now. Today we will be trying the thriller pack from Angry Orchard. Uh, that's apple cider. If, uh, for those of you don't know, hard cider. Their cider so hard.
- 5:57> >Um, 4.7%.
- 5:59> Dave>Here's what their website says about it. Glow in the dark and packed with bold Halloween treat, inspired colors. Ciders, uh, cider, sure. This variety pack, I hate you. Features a killer twist, a limited edition Jason Voorhees blood orange can.
- 6:23> Dave>This pack is the highlight of freaky season. Yeah.
- 6:27> Dave>And won't stick around forever.
- 6:29> >Except in your apple. Right back here.
- 6:32> Dave>Except in your, uh, lower intestines. There are certain heavy metals that will never leave your body once you consume them. The ciders we'll try today are Blood Orange, Extra Bloody, uh, Berry Bewitched, Sinful with a C apple, and headless Pumpkin.
- 6:57> >I'm debating how long that marketing meeting was to come, um, up with those product names. You know, is this. Was this the first round of product names or like the fifth? Or, you know, did they.
- 7:07> >Did they acquire somebody from a competitor and they went, I've got an idea.
- 7:12> Dave>You know, like, what was the point of sinful with a C. I don't get it.
- 7:18> >Oh, that. That feels like at least a 17 minute discussion.
- 7:21> Dave>M. Yeah, I think one guy didn't say anything in the entire meeting and he was like, I've got to get my piece in on this. He's like, well, what if he hopped into it?
- 7:33> >He had, uh, you know, engine and said, uh, how can I make this worse?
- 7:37> Dave>Yeah, it's like, hey, we don't want to alienate all the church people who might be buying hard cider, so let's change that S to a C and then it's fun.
- 7:46> Julianna>Yeah, you know, it's great.
- 7:48> Dave>It's fun. It's.
- 7:49> Julianna>It's great. Okay, why don't you give us the shoulds ratings for today?
- 7:55> >I will do my best impression here. We'll be tasting instead rating. I am walking away from this rating and signature belching. Belching sounds. Number one. That sucks. Give me anything but a free trip to Crystal Lake. It's such rating.
- 8:22> >Number two. Was that a belch? With sound of absolute terror. Suds three. Ah, what a relief.
- 8:35> >That creepy doll's eyes are really following me wherever I go. Suds4. 4. A body should really not make that sound as if it's being shoved into the wood chipper. Faster. Faster. He sounds like the guy.
- 9:00> Dave>Fiddler on the Roof.
- 9:02> >Listen to the thing. Time. Give me another. Freddy versus Jason versus Michael Miles versus Dracula versus this guy. Who knows what I'll be doing.
- 9:14> >Last summer mashup movie.
- 9:19> Dave>You know, it's not zero rehearsal. It's not easy to just make up new suds rating all the time. Yes, but it's very easy to murder them.
- 9:33> >Are you saying that that's not how you thought it would go in your head when you wrote. Wrote that out?
- 9:38> Dave>Yeah, that's, uh. Oh, it's exactly how I knew it would happen.
- 9:41> >And we almost hit the bottom.
- 9:44> Dave>Yeah.
- 9:44> >All right.
- 9:45> Julianna>And, uh, you said murdered.
- 9:47> >Murdered, yes.
- 9:50> Julianna>Okay, let's get to the first one.
- 9:53> >Yeah.
- 9:54> Dave>Okay.
- 9:56> Julianna>Oh, boy.
- 9:57> Dave>Which one is this?
- 9:58> Julianna>This would be the blood orange flavored, um, with other natural flavors.
- 10:04> Dave>Yeah.
- 10:05> >Well, I thought what was interesting said other.
- 10:08> >Yeah. So Dave's first comment was. Hm. That doesn't look right. You know. Is it red? You know, uh, for sure.
- 10:18> Julianna>Um, 5% ABV. Folks.
- 10:20> >I was close. I said 4.7.
- 10:22> Dave>Mike, tell me all the things in nature that are this col. Um. Hm.
- 10:26> >Um. Well, it is. Ah, it's very sweet. Um, and not like a natural way. It's almost like a, you know, like an other natural Way like an aspartame, you know, kind of way.
- 10:45> Julianna>Yeah, yeah, like a bad candy.
- 10:47> >Like my mouth is like candy corn was blended.
- 10:50> Dave>Mouth is very chalky.
- 10:52> Julianna>We'll be back more. Welcome back everyone. You know they're all making fun of my voice.
- 11:09> >Not laughing at you. I'm laughing with you.
- 11:13> Julianna>Well, ladies and gents, today's episode we are taking a little 12 pack here from Angry Orchard called the Thriller pack.
- 11:23> Dave>I think I know why they're angry.
- 11:26> Julianna>And the first beer before the break is the blood orange cider. And besides talking about the wonderful non natural color that it is, we um.
- 11:41> Julianna>What is the aroma that you get off of this?
- 11:43> >I um, was um, saying that it was um, a bit of citrus on there. Definitely reminds me of a juice box. Like a kid's juice box, you know, uh, that you would uh, you know, if you were putting it in a glass, you know, and as opposed to consuming it through a straw. Has a lot of those same, I don't know, artificial driven, you know, aroma.
- 12:09> Dave>I think that's why they put juice box juice in juice boxes. Because you don't see it.
- 12:15> >I don't think 5% would be enough to calm down most 5 year olds.
- 12:18> Julianna>So does this taste alcoholic really at all?
- 12:23> Dave>Tastes to me.
- 12:25> >Mhm.
- 12:25> Dave>Like second hand Hawaiian Punch.
- 12:28> >There you go. I was gonna say, uh, nice.
- 12:30> Julianna>Okay.
- 12:31> >When is the Kool Aid man coming?
- 12:32> Dave>Oh yeah, this is like Hawaiian Punch that someone else enjoyed, then didn't enjoy, gave it back and then you drink it.
- 12:41> Julianna>Okay.
- 12:42> >Um, and put just like a couple of shots of vodka in it or.
- 12:45> Dave>Or neutral grain spirit malt malt liquor.
- 12:49> Julianna>Well in, in general and you know, I'm playing the devil's advocate here. Apple cider. When I think of apple cider, I'm thinking of like some crisp apples, something. I'm thinking of a little yeastiness to kind of dry it out. And that's my.
- 13:04> Julianna>Like that to me. Right, right, right. That to me is a, is a good cider.
- 13:09> Dave>Something that accentuates the flavor of an apple.
- 13:13> Julianna>Sure. And like maybe maybe add uh, like a cherry or a blue or you can do berries of some sort. But usually like I think of those going together. I don't know that I necessarily think of an orange with an apple in the same breath. Like do you know what I mean? Because, because oranges are like acidic citrus and an apple tends to be like.
- 13:38> Dave>Well, let's be very clear. Okay.
- 13:40> Julianna>Yeah.
- 13:40> Dave>And I'm not. And I wasn't there when they made this.
- 13:43> Julianna>Okay.
- 13:44> Dave>I would be Greatly surprised if there was an actual apple or an actual blood orange within six miles of where this was made.
- 13:55> >It feels very.
- 13:56> Julianna>Okay.
- 13:57> >It. It tastes like a flavor man experience.
- 13:59> Dave>It tastes like science. Yeah. Yes. I think some food scientists came up with some stuff and put something together. Now they're going to say there's apples. And I don't know what the rules are, Mike, about how much apple has to be in a can of a beverage for you to say that there's apple in it.
- 14:19> >Oh, I think this is just labeled as a malt beverage. I don't even think they declared as a cider. Yeah, you know.
- 14:25> Julianna>You know, it says in the ingredients, it just says hard cider.
- 14:31> Dave>So hard cider. So they added some hard cider. One apple, one, uh, one half apple. Okay.
- 14:37> Julianna>Okay.
- 14:38> >Yeah. Uh, here's my rating.
- 14:39> Julianna>Okay, so we are going to rate this a. Oh, God. The special one. Yes, this number one. Okay, so. So maybe one didn't like a blood orange, but now let's go to the berry Bewitched.
- 14:56> Dave>My mouth feels weird.
- 14:58> Julianna>Okay, this is another 5% ABV. And of course, it's gluten free. Like, everything here is different.
- 15:07> Julianna>Gluten free.
- 15:07> Dave>It smells more berry ish.
- 15:10> >Yeah, definitely way more blueberry. Uh, it would probably be the big draw of this.
- 15:16> Julianna>Okay. And it's the color on this is a little bit more of a naturalish looking blue berry juice.
- 15:26> >Yes. Ah, this is definitely, you know, like.
- 15:29> Julianna>A cranberry kind of thing.
- 15:31> >No, definitely blueberry. Um, very purple.
- 15:35> Julianna>Oh, does it. Yeah, I guess it does have a purplish.
- 15:39> Dave>Yeah, it's a blueberry ish juice.
- 15:43> Julianna>Now, this one, to me, is drier than the previous one. Um, like, the viscosity I was getting on the first one was a little thicker.
- 15:52> >Uh, this is. This is actually heavier on the palette. Um, I think.
- 15:57> Julianna>Oh, really?
- 15:58> >Okay.
- 15:58> Dave>All I'm getting is more residual sweetness on this.
- 16:01> Julianna>Okay.
- 16:01> Dave>It does finish. The sugar is different, dry like the other one. This is m. This one is actually more pleasant.
- 16:09> >I agree.
- 16:10> Dave>Like, vastly more present or pleasant than the other one. Not good. I'm not saying good. Don't go crazy. But, like, I don't.
- 16:20> >This is. This is closer to a cider. This doesn't taste.
- 16:25> Dave>I would finish the can of this one.
- 16:27> Julianna>Okay.
- 16:28> Dave>I would drink. I'd drink a whole can.
- 16:29> >I would finish the sample in front of me.
- 16:32> Dave>Well, that's a step up.
- 16:33> >That's a step up.
- 16:34> Julianna>Yeah, that is. That is a step up. Okay. So in tasting these, like, magical flavored ciders mhm.
- 16:42> Julianna>What does one eat with these?
- 16:45> Dave>Ooh, uh, Halloween candy.
- 16:50> >I, I would say something that has no sugar in it because these are so sugar.
- 16:56> Dave>I would eat hot dogs or hamburgers. Yeah, some kind of in, uh, but also kind of salty like, because you might pull a little bit more of the flavor, the sweetness out of this.
- 17:09> >You know, Um, I can see some, uh, fatty cheeses, uh, would probably go well with this. Commemor.
- 17:17> >Uh, brie. Um, you know, even, um, a great manchingo would probably go well with this.
- 17:26> Dave>But I guess you, you also have to think situationally though, Mike. Like, okay, you're drinking. Which one is this? Berry Bewitched.
- 17:36> Dave>Okay. So it's not like you're gonna go to a steakhouse and get a steak and say, well, you know, what beverage would you like? Oh, do you have any of that angry orchard berry be. Which you know, to go with it, my, you know, 14 ounce rib eye, um, and baked potato. So like, that's why I said like a hot dog or something. Like, I think this, you would be at a, a party or like a barbecue or something and like whip one of these out and have it in that context. I think, you know, it's not, it's also situational and not just strictly about food pairings.
- 18:15> >Yeah. You know, I just wouldn't have it with, you know, something like a birthday cake or.
- 18:19> Dave>No, because you don't want to just.
- 18:22> >Or you know, uh, again, something that would be bringing more sugar to the table, you know.
- 18:28> Dave>Yeah, you're just stacking sugar at that point.
- 18:30> >Yeah, Yeah.
- 18:32> Julianna>I, I'm just wondering, like, in general, who is the apple cider drinker? Is this somebody that doesn't like beer?
- 18:41> >Yes.
- 18:41> Julianna>Okay. But also somebody that likes something a little sweet.
- 18:45> >Somebody that does not like hops, I would say would be at the top of my list.
- 18:48> Julianna>Okay.
- 18:49> >Yeah. But also somebody that has delusions of grandeur thinking that cider, uh, is actually lower in calorie. Yeah. Which is not true at all.
- 18:57> Dave>You know, the gluten free crowd, you know, they'll go for this.
- 19:01> >But.
- 19:01> Dave>But also, I don't like some of the ciders that we've had on the show. Like that French cider Mike brought that one time. And like some of those.
- 19:11> Dave>Yeah, like this and that.
- 19:14> Julianna>That's two different worlds, you know, uh, pardon my French, but apples and oranges.
- 19:19> Dave>A person who likes this, I think would equally dislike that French cider as they would a beer, you know.
- 19:27> Julianna>All right, we're gonna rate this one quick and we're gonna rate it a 2.
- 19:33> Dave>It's twice as good as the last one.
- 19:36> Julianna>That's what that means. No, I don't get a yeah, sure.
- 19:43> Dave>Well, why would you get them?
- 19:44> Julianna>I think we'll be back in just a minute with more.
- 19:47> Dave>I'm the one who said the funny thing. I wasn't talking to you, Mike.
- 20:00> Julianna>Welcome back, everyone. Um, and how are you today?
- 20:06> Dave>I just expressed my love for good old Mike.
- 20:09> >Very, very, very in the spirit of the moon.
- 20:13> Dave>I don't even know what button to hit.
- 20:16> >Yeah. And once again.
- 20:19> Dave>Oh, that's unpleasant.
- 20:21> Julianna>Ladies and gents, it's not just us with our fake accents. Um, today we are doing a little takeover from Angry Orchard. We have been trying their Thriller pack. I just don't like drinking it, but I like when I feel good after it. Yeah. Uh, she needs to be here at the table. So right before the break, we had talked about two out of the four of this Thriller pack pack. And the next one that we are going to talk about is the sinful with a C I N N. Yeah, there's two wins. Yes. Um, this, the Sinful Apple and looks alone. This is what a cider usually.
- 21:17> Dave>I mean if you just poured this out in a cup, you would say, yeah, okay, that's apple cider.
- 21:23> Julianna>Right.
- 21:24> Dave>Then you smell it and you're like, um, yeah, I mean, maybe apple cider maybe. Yeah. I think there's a cinnamon presence there in the nose as the winos like to say.
- 21:38> Julianna>This one has a lot of tiny bubbles. You know.
- 21:46> Dave>If you take the first one, the blood orange as the baseline.
- 21:50> Julianna>Okay.
- 21:51> Dave>And then you do the Berry Bewitched as a step up.
- 21:58> Dave>I don't know that I like this better than the Berry Bewitched.
- 22:02> Julianna>Okay.
- 22:02> Dave>But I do like it better than the blood orange.
- 22:06> >Um, this definitely has a lot more of what you would think of in terms of having apple, you know, traditional apple cider or just apple juice in general.
- 22:15> Julianna>Okay.
- 22:16> >Um.
- 22:16> Dave>It's still too sweet.
- 22:17> >Yeah, I agree. And the cinnamon feels like it's been.
- 22:20> Dave>Back sweetened and the cinnamon takes overtakes the apple.
- 22:24> Julianna>Well, I was gonna say is that there's. It's like cinnamon heavy.
- 22:29> Dave>It's like drinking Apple Jack cereal.
- 22:32> >Mhm. Yeah.
- 22:35> Julianna>I think that even make Apple Jack cereal. Anyway.
- 22:39> Dave>Yeah.
- 22:39> Julianna>Okay.
- 22:40> Dave>Like I hate to say it but like this is marketed towards. I'm not gonna say children. Okay.
- 22:51> Julianna>I. I was thinking toddler myself, but.
- 22:53> Dave>You know, that's just the very young and the non real alcohol drinker.
- 22:59> Julianna>Okay. You know, that's Fair.
- 23:01> >Yeah, it's definitely appealing to, again, somebody that's not looking for something that's bitter at all in any shape or form.
- 23:08> Julianna>Um, well, there's nothing bitter about any of these.
- 23:10> >And the reason why it tastes like it is out of balance and jacked up, you know, because it doesn't have, you know, anything to bring that balance, you know, around.
- 23:19> Dave>So there's not enough alcohol.
- 23:22> >If there's anything that I would have probably done with this, I would have actually poured this on ice because, you know, I think diluting, uh, it down would reduce a lot of the, you know, invasion of sugar up front, you know, through this.
- 23:34> Julianna>Yeah. And also, this is the kind of beverage that needs to be, like, ice cold.
- 23:38> >Yeah.
- 23:39> Julianna>To. To.
- 23:40> Dave>I. I'd pour a shot of vodka in it or maybe even bourbon.
- 23:44> >I would have just, uh, had the shot of vodka and poured this out. Fair. Um, yeah, this is. This is another sugar bomb, but it's, uh, very different.
- 23:55> >This is just, you know, flat out just, uh. Wow.
- 23:59> Dave>I think Mike's gonna rate this one a four.
- 24:01> >Uh, yeah. So, yes. Um, I don't think this one's gonna crawl off the floor for me. Oh, yeah.
- 24:07> Dave>I'm gonna say this because it's better than the blood one.
- 24:10> Julianna>Okay.
- 24:10> >All right.
- 24:11> Julianna>And I was. Well, so we are going to rate the sinful Apple A2.
- 24:17> Dave>It does make my stomach hurt, though. I don't know if that detracts.
- 24:22> Julianna>Okay. So if we're thinking about holiday get togethers, and for me, when I think of the fall, I think of football games, you know, tailgating.
- 24:32> Dave>Um, which one of your ugly cousins are you gonna give this to? Mike?
- 24:35> >M. Yeah, that's a good question.
- 24:39> Julianna>Um, does this even come to the tailgate?
- 24:44> >I'm, uh, I'm definitely thinking of a certain cousin, yes.
- 24:47> Julianna>Oh, okay. So this does come to the tailgate.
- 24:51> >Yeah, I think.
- 24:52> Dave>I think there's a.
- 24:53> >There's a company if. Yeah, I agree. If you're in a crowd of 30 people, there's going to be somebody that's gonna go, I like this.
- 25:00> Julianna>Okay, That's. That's fair. Is bobbing for apples also going to be on the table?
- 25:06> Dave>I think. I mean, I think your hard seltzer crowd go for this just as easy as they would a, um, you know, a twisted whatever or a, uh, claw thing.
- 25:17> Julianna>Okay. You know, the white claws in the.
- 25:20> Dave>Yeah, I mean, because, um, there is flavor here.
- 25:24> Dave>It's just.
- 25:27> >So. I'll confess, what I'm actually having here at the same time is actually have Some white cheddar Cheez. Its that I'm having to cleanse my palate.
- 25:35> >Oh.
- 25:36> Dave>How's all. How's that contrast?
- 25:38> Julianna>It's helping.
- 25:38> >It's really helping an awful lot to, you know, combat this much sugar, uh, that is just hanging around, you know, uh, on your palate itself. So, um, when we were talking about pairing earlier.
- 25:52> >Yeah. Uh, um, all the way to go, for sure.
- 25:57> Dave>Which is like what you would have at a, you know, holiday party or a, you know, or tailgate or something. People are, you know, I could grab a couple hot dogs and slam a couple of these. You'll probably be all right.
- 26:10> >So. Yeah, Dave said earlier that, uh, these are supposed to glow in the dark. And we were debating, does the can glow in the dark? Does the box glow in the dark? I think it has to be glow in the dark.
- 26:21> Dave>I think it has to pass through.
- 26:23> >Your body or as you're tasting or as you are relieving yourself of these fine beverages. I use the word, that part. Glowing in the dark beverages.
- 26:33> Dave>You know, are you.
- 26:34> >Are you, uh, writing, you know, your name in the grass, you know, uh, under the. Under the darkness of night?
- 26:40> Dave>I have to say this, though, Mike, and this is in all seriousness, I think that is an actual winning marketing strategy. If you had a beverage that when you let it go later on, you were, you know, like, creating your own.
- 26:55> >Glow stick, whatever, that'd be an interesting conversation. Uh, in the restroom. Yo, yo, yo, yo, man, come over here. Look at this.
- 27:02> Dave>Yeah. Hey, somebody turned the bathroom light out.
- 27:05> Dave>Yeah. Yo, man, look, this technically is glowing.
- 27:10> Dave>That is one of the only. That is one of the main things you never want to hear in a. In a men's room. Where do you put somebody Turn the lights out.
- 27:17> >Do you describe that as an experience or do you put that down as a skill, you know, on your resume? I mean, you know, where does that fit?
- 27:24> >It's like, I have. I have viewed, you know, what glows in the dark with, you know, you know, my piss. Or do you describe that as a skill and say, dude, I can make this happen. Watch.
- 27:34> Dave>You know, I just think, though, like, you know, for bonfires and things like that, guys are going to go, you know, drink a lot.
- 27:42> >It sounds like you're promoting somebody, but.
- 27:44> Dave>Like, man, you start. You start whipping it around and, like, stuff's glowing in the dark, people are going to notice you.
- 27:50> >Yeah, for sure. And here I'm thinking, here goes Dave whipping it again.
- 27:55> Julianna>Uh, if I'm. If I'm out side, you know, with Like a. I don't know, like a bonfire or a get together, you know, in a backyard, and you saw somebody with glowing. Well, then I'm just wondering. Oh, okay.
- 28:11> Julianna>So this is the side of the fence that no one needs to go on because it's glowing?
- 28:15> Dave>Because I would be. It might take me three trips, but I would definitely write my name on the fence.
- 28:22> Julianna>Oh, how sweet.
- 28:25> >All right, turn the juice on the electric fence again. Uh, Dave's heading over. Look at him twitch.
- 28:31> Dave>How did he misspell his own name?
- 28:35> >Dan Again.
- 28:38> Dave>I thought your name was Dave. Why does it say Dan?
- 28:40> Dave>Uh, I ran out of. Ran out of ammunition. Leave me alone.
- 28:44> >Hand me some more Barry Bewitched.
- 28:47> Julianna>Oh, my stars.
- 28:49> Dave>I think it's just poor aim. Yeah.
- 28:51> Julianna>Uh, okay.
- 28:52> >But I wonder how many people step into the. You know, the marketing pool of, you know, that. That gimmick, you know, just.
- 28:58> Dave>Well, it's Halloween. It's scary, you know, like.
- 29:00> Dave>Or, you know, in scary movies. M. And maybe it's that Jason Voorhees that glows in the dark or something like. Oh, yeah, set that up.
- 29:09> >I would definitely want more of that if that were glowing in the dark.
- 29:11> Dave>Yeah. And maybe if you drink it in the dark, it tastes better.
- 29:17> Julianna>Oh, I. That's. Yeah, that's a thought.
- 29:19> Dave>If Kendall was here, we'd get him to shotgun one of those.
- 29:22> >Oh.
- 29:23> Dave>See what that.
- 29:24> >We have some spares, so that might be, you know, a video that shows up on. On our social media channels.
- 29:30> Dave>Yeah.
- 29:31> Julianna>And he would be.
- 29:32> >I can hear him saying. Absolutely.
- 29:34> Dave>We're doing that.
- 29:35> Julianna>Yes. Right now. Let's go.
- 29:37> Dave>I can hear him saying some things.
- 29:39> >At the zoo last night. Yeah, probably. Well, not probably in his current condition, but he would have normally have probably been there, but.
- 29:46> Dave>Yeah.
- 29:47> >Um.
- 29:47> Announcer>Oh, my gosh.
- 29:48> Julianna>Yeah. Have this at brew at the zoo. All right.
- 29:51> Dave>I think it would scare the animals.
- 29:52> Julianna>We'll be back with more in just a minute. Welcome.
- 30:02> Julianna>M back, everyone. And here we, uh, are gathered around today to drink some cider.
- 30:16> >Dear dad, please send an exit strategy. Love, Mike.
- 30:21> Julianna>Whatever. I am better than you. So today we did, um, a bad thing. Yes, we did a very bad thing. We found a thriller pack from Angry Orchard.
- 30:35> >We brought. It was on the end Cap and Dave just didn't want to walk down the rest of the.
- 30:38> Dave>Yeah, I was like, oh.
- 30:42> Julianna>Let'S just do it and be quick about it, Mike.
- 30:44> Dave>You know what? That's actually pretty close.
- 30:45> >A lot closer to the truth. I know. I don't think this would even make it to the shelf. I think they would just have it as an incap.
- 30:52> Dave>I think the guy was hauling it from the back and he's like, man, let's leave it here. Yeah.
- 30:57> Julianna>And see what happens. Yeah.
- 30:59> >Watch this.
- 31:00> Julianna>Okay, so before the break, we were talking about the sin C I, N N, F U L. Apple cider.
- 31:10> Dave>Hey, I want to call out two of those letters to you. F you.
- 31:16> Julianna>And we are rating it A two. In case we didn't say that earlier.
- 31:21> Dave>Let'S make it very clear. This is a number two.
- 31:24> Julianna>Okay, but now the piece, the resistance. No, I think so just dead loud is going to be the save.
- 31:35> Dave>The best for last.
- 31:36> >Not even close.
- 31:37> Dave>Yes. So it smells like pumpkin.
- 31:40> >We, uh.
- 31:41> Julianna>And this is another 5%.
- 31:42> Dave>In a weird way, uh, while we.
- 31:44> >Were out on break, um, uh, we were talking about another brewery, uh, that was local, uh, to us, that made a cream ale, Pumpkin pumpkin cream ale.
- 31:56> >It would. It would taste pretty close to this because this is. Which. When somebody, uh, said that, you know, it was like, wow. Uh, you know, how many things can you be offensive about all at the same time? One, I don't think that brewery can make a great cream ale. Two, I think dumping a flavor on top of cream ale is like, you know, seriously, that is just a bad idea all into itself.
- 32:20> Dave>It's a. It's like, hey, let me make this pork chop flavored pilsner. Okay? Because.
- 32:27> >Why.
- 32:27> Dave>Why not? You know?
- 32:28> Julianna>Pork chop pilsner?
- 32:30> Dave>Yeah. Actually, somebody's gonna make that now.
- 32:34> Dave>Wow.
- 32:34> >Um. This is so bad.
- 32:36> Dave>This tastes like pumpkin pie cake icing.
- 32:48> Julianna>Like frosting that's all artificial.
- 32:52> Dave>Uh, I mean, I. Can you make that natural? I don't know.
- 32:57> Julianna>Okay.
- 32:57> Dave>It's just like. It's. It's the pumpkin pie spice stuff with a. Just a ton of sugar in it.
- 33:04> Julianna>Like, would you say there's a degree of spiciness that's, like, unnatural to this?
- 33:11> >Like some baking spices, like cinnamon and.
- 33:14> Dave>Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
- 33:15> Julianna>So it's not just a pumpkin. It's all the accoutrements that go with the pumpkin.
- 33:19> >Well, I'm gonna say that it is, actually, to me, I know this is. There's a slight difference between these, but it's closer to nacorn squash, you know, for me. Um.
- 33:29> Julianna>Oh, okay.
- 33:30> >Yeah. It's, uh. It's just that pumpkin itself is, I don't know, not. Not. This, um. This has a touch of bitterness that I would probably associate, you know, a lot. A lot more with acorn squash.
- 33:44> Julianna>Okay. So it's a headless acorn.
- 33:47> Dave>Squash. Squash.
- 33:49> >Oh, uh, man, that is not good. Um, I was thinking about. So I make a dish, uh, that is grilled, uh, pork chops, uh, that has, uh, that sits in a, um, apple uh, marinade, uh, overnight. Yes, I've made it a lot. I've probably made that dish 40, 50 times.
- 34:10> Dave>Pork and apple is a very good combo.
- 34:11> Julianna>Goes very well together.
- 34:12> >Um, and you just use, you know, a frozen concentrate, you know, apple juice when you're making that. But there are other spices that you put in it as well. Um, pumpkin pie spices. Um, there are some baking spices that you put in that.
- 34:27> >I'm thinking that this would be a good substitute for using that apple concentrate, um, has a very similar flavor characteristic. So if you drink a half a can of this and go, I wonder what I'm going to do with the rest of the pack because I don't like that. Boom. There you go.
- 34:42> Dave>You know, I think that's a great approach to this.
- 34:45> >Pork chops in a Ziploc bag filled out with a can of this and, and maybe some uh, rosemary and some thyme. I think you're, you think you're headed down.
- 34:54> Julianna>Call it a day.
- 34:55> >Yeah, call it a day. Let it marinate overnight, throw them on the grill. You know, invite three of your least favorite friends and see what they say.
- 35:03> Dave>No, I think that's good. I think, um, kind of like with the last one like that sinful with two in apple. Uh, m. You know how, you know, you make like a beer can chicken?
- 35:15> >Mhm.
- 35:16> Dave>I think you could use like one of these for, for, for that, like that, that cinnamon apple maybe, or even this one just to do like a beer can chicken or something on the grill. I think you would get some nice, like, uh, like some, some nice semi apple flavors going into it. I think it would be kind of nice and you won't have to drink it. So that's, that's the real.
- 35:42> Julianna>Yeah, that's a plus. Sure.
- 35:44> Dave>Now for the blood orange, I don't have an alternate use for that one other than maybe windshield wiper fluid replacement.
- 35:53> Julianna>Oh yeah, sure. For the holidays.
- 35:56> Dave>For the holidays. To make it fast.
- 35:58> Julianna>Yeah.
- 35:58> >Oh, why does that actually, why does that guy's car smell like, you know, a high C fruit punch?
- 36:05> Dave>It might be a good Halloween prank though. Like if you put that in someone's uh, windshield wiper reservoir and then like put some stuff all over the windshield so when they hit it, this red spray comes out. It'd be like a horror movie.
- 36:18> >So Sticky. After three days, the wiper wouldn't even move across, you know, the glass.
- 36:22> Julianna>It wouldn't even, like, push out. It would get clogged.
- 36:24> Dave>Oh, it'd still be.
- 36:25> Julianna>Yeah.
- 36:26> Dave>Oh, I'm gonna do that. I know a certain dog.
- 36:30> >Say, uh, which sibling are you going to?
- 36:32> Announcer>Where?
- 36:33> Dave>Oh, I was going to say, I know of a certain Dodge Caravan that's very, uh, very close to me right now. That certain person might need to use the windshield wipers.
- 36:45> Julianna>Oh, yeah. I'll make sure I warn them.
- 36:48> Dave>Yes.
- 36:48> Julianna>Yes.
- 36:49> >Okay, well, I think let's rate this up first before I move on. I'm sorry. Okay.
- 36:53> Dave>M. You want to go ahead and get that middle finger out there, Mike.
- 36:56> >Yeah.
- 36:57> Julianna>We're rating this A1 as well.
- 36:59> Dave>Yeah.
- 36:59> Julianna>Okay.
- 37:00> Dave>So we had two ones and two twos. So if you add this whole thing together, we had a six.
- 37:08> >I think of these four best ever. These four. I would go back and have the berry be wedged. Yeah, that was the best one. Um, by far. That was the best.
- 37:18> Julianna>The berry Bewitched is the most realistic.
- 37:20> Dave>What was your least favorite?
- 37:22> >The pumpkin one that we just had.
- 37:24> Dave>You like the pumpkin one less than the blood orange.
- 37:26> >Yes.
- 37:27> Dave>Interesting.
- 37:29> >Yeah, I just, uh.
- 37:30> Julianna>Well, would you say it's the spices that kind of.
- 37:32> >Yeah, I'm just. I don't like pumpkin beverages.
- 37:35> Dave>They do give you some of that. They give me some of that pumpkin beer show flashback that I. Oh, I don't.
- 37:44> Julianna>We're still trying to get over that.
- 37:45> Dave>Right.
- 37:46> Julianna>Well, that's too soon.
- 37:47> Dave>A little p. P. S.D.
- 37:50> Julianna>Yes.
- 37:51> >Well, I look forward to trying to figure out what part of the equation, uh, glows in the dark. I was gonna say blows in the dark.
- 38:01> Dave>This. That's a different show.
- 38:08> Julianna>Mike.
- 38:09> Dave>You gotta drink more than just a little cup of this stuff.
- 38:11> >So I'm gonna go into the closet, I'm gonna turn the lights out, uh, and we're gonna see what happens from there.
- 38:17> Dave>Mike's gonna see which parts of his body glow in the dark.
- 38:21> Julianna>Yeah. And what will happen when he comes out of the closet. Okay.
- 38:25> >Why is my left hand glowing more in my right?
