We are not black, but we see you. We are not black, but we hear you. We are not black, but we mourn with you. We are not black, but we see the injustice that you face daily. We not black, but we see your fear for your sons and even your daughters. We are not black, but we will stand with you.




 

Oof... (Quarantine skype episode 2)

With California's "Shelter in Place" still in effect and in an effort to adhere to the social distancing practices, we decided to try recording the next few shows via Skype. After finally working out the bugs, bumping up internet speeds and multiple tries we finally got it all worked out....kind of. This definitely was different as we actually like being around each other but you do what you gotta to make the magic happen! We scoured local shops for the best of what we could find and we are pretty sure we pulled out a great little selection!! So strap in and bear with us...it's going to be a trip!!

Justin brought on his neighbor Christian (last name left off because he was afraid the fame would make his daily life unbearable) who used to be in "The Biz" to tell us about a different style of beer than we have had before...Trappist and Abbey style Ales. This was technically our first interview and it was such a pleasure having someone on that had such a great knowledge and love for the craft. We also decided to go down the rabbit hole with Rudy's "Finds From the 99" where Rudy brings out something from the 99 Cent store and they see how it stacks up....here's a spoiler....IT DOES NOT!!!

Well this was from earlier in the day when we spoke to Co-Founder Gerald Dollente of Latchkey Brewery (Located at 1795 Hancock St. San Diego, CA 92110). We only had him for a short while but he was awesome. After we spoke with him we tried a quick flight and as always gave our opinions about it.
