Beers on this episode:
Revolution Brewing - Pursuit of Freedom: Apple Tart
"The enticing combination of apple, vanilla, and cinnamon offers beguiling aromas and captivating flavors in the latest entry in our Pursuit of Freedom series of Session Sours with real fruit."

Noon Whistle Brewing - Daaa Gummy
"Da Gummy is a hazy IPA with a blend of Cashmere, Strata, Chinook, and Mosaic Hops. Cashmere hops open up with notes of peach and tangerine rind. Strata hops step in, offering herbal and dank undertones that add depth. Chinook hops bring a symphony of pine and resin notes. Finally, rounding everything out Mosaic hops shine, with their signature fruity character, weaving in elements of juicy citrus and ripe berries."
