Does sour beer have a smell? Beergirl Melissa stops in to hang out and convince us to have a "CBR After Dark" version of the podcast. We're also talking about the sober world cup, Thanksgiving aftermath, the grossest-looking fruit, the weird saga of MacLeod Ale, and when to admit you're drunk.

-

Flex is sipping on Raspberry Tart from the elusive New Glarus Brewing. Mel is drinking Murphy's Law from District 96 and Ghost Hawk Brewing. Greg is enjoying Malibu Brewing's Oktoberfest.

Are you watching the world cup? Hopefully, not from the stadium where you can't drink any beer. We're talking about our Thanksgiving break, and it turns out that there's a "pasta course" during dinner. Flex got drunk with his in-laws, and Melissa is starting a new 800 service for hot Italians. And we're tackling the big questions, like what is a snake fruit?!

Chew calls in to talk about Atrevida Beer in Colorado Springs.

-

MacLeod Ale out of Los Angeles is having all kinds of weird drama. San Francisco's Cellarmaker Brewing acquires The Rare Barrel. Another cop shows up drunk to work. A drunk lady hits a pole and doesn't hide it. And we have a crucial conversation about giving directions.
