Happy New Year, mmkay! Beergirl Melissa stops in to hang out with us as we wrap things up before the New Year’s parties. We’re talking about our drunken Christmases, weird Wisconsin foods, Murky vs. Hazy beers, end-of-the-year beer lists, and our collaboration beer with Pedals & Pints!

Mel is drinking Cup of Gold Murky DIPA from Pure Project & Alvarado Street Brewing. Flex is sipping on King Julius from Tree House Brewing. And Greg is researching Focal Banger from The Alchemist.

Big News: Greg brewed a collaboration beer with Monica from Pedals n Pints. There will be a live show on Friday, January 13, to celebrate! Intern Brian and Flex had a World Cup bet, but who’s the biggest loser? Mel talks about her very Italian Christmas and all the made-up food they ate (and wine they drank). Flex slept his way through the holiday. And thanks to illness, Greg’s festivities were quite laid back. Flex also turns us on to some weird, mid-western food. Mel’s beer leads to an important question: what’s the difference between murky and hazy? And we talked about hanging out with Mel’s husband off the air and all the craziness that ensued.

Many breweries are finishing the year by closing their doors; is this a sign of what’s to come in 2023? In the UK, ambulance drivers are on strike, and the government warns partiers to go easy on NYE. We’ve got the 7 New Champagne of Beers to Drink This New Year’s Eve. And Untappd gives us The Top 10 Highest-Average Rated Beer Styles of 2022.
