Welcome to another interesting show where we drink some NA cocktails and match them up against their alcoholic versions! We sit down with Evan and Nick from Bridgeview to sample some Ritual Zero Proof 'spirits'.

In this episode, Nick mixxes us a pair of Bee's Knee's cocktails using Boreal Juniper Gin and Ritual's gin spirit, followed by a pair of Palomas made with Cascahuin reposado and pit it against Ritual's tequila spirit.

Once again, the BBR crew decided to 'torture' ourselves and see if we can continue the legacy of not being able to tell the difference between several macro brews, like in episode 18 back in June of 2019. We invited back to the show cousin Torry for some fun laughs and confusing tastings!

3/C)  Budweiser Lager

4/D)  Busch

5/E)  Leinenkugel's Original Lager

6/F)  Old Milwaukee

7/G)  Pabst Blue Ribbon

“A falling knife has no handle” is a saying that is well known here at Falling Knife Brewing in Minneapolis, where they are "willing to take a risk and get what we want. Even if it means we take a few cuts along the way." Excellent point, and even better beer! The BBR crew sit down with Drew from Falling Knife to chat about the brewery and the culture surrounding it.

In this episode we sample their Arnie Palmer hard seltzer (made with infusions from Meteor), Kaiju Smash tropical sour (made using Sourvisciea), Terminal Chill West Coast IPA, Verbal Tip NEIPA, Dark Match imperial stout, and Very Old Painless BA Barleywine.

Can YOU get enough pickles? We here at BBR can't. So much so that we invited comedians John Narum, Paulina Combow, and Paula Kosienski from Nashville to join us and patreon subscriber Jacob K  to sample some local examples of this delicious veggie in beer!
