Episode #139 Fulton Hard Seltzer

In today's episode we discuss Fulton brewery and their local Minnesota roots 

We'll also taste Fulton's Blood Orange Hard Seltzer

Finally, we learn about some of the history of Fulton Brewery

Right off the bat, we were confused about which sugar type is table sugar, we were kinda right. See here for a breakdown of the differences between Sucrose and Glucose. Short answer: Sucrose is table sugar!

We want to thank Fulton for producing a delicious product that Aaron can drink with his beer averse palette. Check them out on Facebook, and let them know we sent you. (image credit http://www.fultonbeer.com/beer/blood-orange-hard-seltzer)

Episode #138 Road Food

Sippy Cup Edition

Today we’re tasting a hard latte from Brown Bomber and Insight Brewing’s Rowdy Uncle.

Aaron and Andrea definitely enjoyed the Brown Bomber,
but found it super dangerous while Aaron couldn’t quite get
past the beer flavor in the Rowdy Uncle. He still enjoyed it,
however, and said he could drink a bit of it here and there!

As you journey on the road with us, try to find a Whataburger first founded in
Corpus Christi, Texas. How do you pronounce it? Here’s one pronunciation.

We also talk about Shake Shack, In N Out Burger, Culver’s
(take a look at the Pretzel Haus Pub Burger that Aaron ate before this episode),
Del Taco, Five Guys and more!

For those of you wanting to learn more about the differences between
Frozen Custard and Ice Cream, check this out.

And last, but certainly not least this week: We have officially launched our
merch store at TeeSpring! We have shirts and hoodies that bear our
humble logo for your comfort in the coming cold months
and beyond! Check out the Merch Store here!

Episode #137 Hudson's Hamburgers

In today's episode we explore Coeur D'alene, Idaho, and talk about the taste of historic Hudson's Hamburgers 

We'll also taste a hand-crafted secret spice liqueur, and make a cocktail of sorts

Finally, we learn about the history of this historic tourist-town mainstay

We first want to highlight Hudson's Hamburgers for their down to earth style of burgers. You can check out their Facebook page here.

This week's drink was Bubba's Secret Stills brown liquor, which we added to about 4 ounces of 2% milk over ice. As mentioned in the episode, we endorse the addition of this liquor to eggnog, as we believe it will be a tasty treat, and a fad in the coming holiday season.

If you would like to drive through a redwood tree, you can find some more information here.

Thank you so much for listening, and we hope you have a wonderful day/week. See you next Tuesday!

• 2 cup Water
• 1 Egg white
• 1 and a half ounces of light rum
• 1 ounce of dark Jamaican Rum

1. Combine the lemon juice, simple syrup, water, and egg white together to create a sweet and sour mix.
2. Add 3.5 ounces of the mixture to a blender and blend briefly with the light rum.
3. Pour the blended mixture over ice in a short, chilled glass.
4. Carefully float the dark rum over the top of the drink.

Here once again is the alternate version of this drink

We want everyone to share in the experience of going t a Tiki bar at some point, and are proud to shout out Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge as the first such establishment that Aaron has ever been to.

Here are also links for Frankie's, and Gold Tiki which are both in Las Vegas, NV.

If you're looking for recipes for drinks of your own, we of course recommend Mixel and The Grogalizer, you can also check out Smuggler's Cove as it has been suggested many times by Greg from How to Drink.
