Transcript

Intro / Opening

>> Announcer: Brought to you almost live from, um, the dude in the basement studios. Why? Cause that's where the good stuff is. It sits suds, and smokes with your smokin host, the good old boys. >> Speaker B: Suds. Uh, suds. >> Announcer: Uh, suds. It's time for more suds. >> Julianna: Hello, greetings. Welcome to another Sud segment. I'm one of your hosts, Goodogao, Julianna. And joining me today at the table is good a boy, Tim.

>> Speaker B: Hello, good morning, good afternoon, and good evening. >> Julianna: And good old boy Dave. >> Dave: Trailer park sangria. That's what we're covering today, right? >> Speaker B: That's what I came here for. >> Julianna: Wow. Well, recently we started a new series and we call it Beer Club. >> Speaker B: Beer club? >> Julianna: Yeah. Think of it as a book club, but with records and beer that makes it so much cooler than stupid books.

>> Dave: So someone picks an album, in this case, someone incredibly handsome, dashing and witty. Then we all listen to it. Then we each pick a beer that pairs well with it. Now, we'll sit around and each of us will share our beer and talk about why we think it pairs well with the album. >> Speaker B: Good old boy Dave, since it sounds like you picked the album, how could you tell? Well, you're the most dashing, good looking one here, as you described.

>> Dave: That's true. That's very true. >> Speaker B: Can you. >> Dave: And humble. >> Speaker B: And humble always. Would you let us know what you picked? >> Dave: Sure. We, uh, are listening to, uh, our. The album we'll be discussing today is wet leg by the band wet leg. It was released in April of 2022. It was recorded in April of 2021, probably during the pandemic. I know that's when the songs were written. Cool, uh, little funky indie rock band from the Isle

of Wight in England. Uh, so really just kind of a cultural phenomenon in a way because they kind of came out of nowhere and they've gotten a lot of press, been really big. Um, and I think it was just a really cool album. And it's one of the few really new albums that have come out lately that really grabbed my attention and, um, had some catchy tunes on it. >> Speaker B: Yeah, it's really catchy. It has a lot of great, great tracks, for sure.

>> Dave: A lot of fun songs, but a lot of bad relationship songs. Getting high songs, getting drunk songs. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Dave: Touching yourself in a car songs. You know, I mean, there's all kinds. >> Speaker B: Of stuff they cover. They cover all the bases. >> Julianna: It's pretty classics. Yeah. >> Speaker B: Yeah. It's really silly, too, which I like. Yeah, you just don't. You don't really know what's true and what's made up, but maybe it's very.

>> Dave: British, you know, it's that witty, kind of, uh, sarcastic, you know, dry wit to it, too. It's really, really enjoyable. >> Julianna: Yep. Yep. >> Speaker B: And to women, to female artists, which, I don't know, maybe England. Do you get, like, female duos all the time in modern music? >> Julianna: Well, I think they're just more progressive that, uh, it's cool to do that. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, it's cool to do that.

>> Dave: They were stuck in a. Stuck in an apartment together during COVID So this is what came out. >> Speaker B: Yeah. Somehow it blew up. >> Dave: Yeah. All right, so good old boy Tim, why don't you give us the suds ratings, and we'll get this thing going. >> Speaker B: With the beer club album. We'll be discussing and rating these beers with these suds ratings. Plus our signature belching sounds. Here are those ratings now. One, that sucks. Give me anything but a bud.

Two. Was that a belch? Three. Ah. Uh, what a relief. Four, a body really should not make that sound. And five. Listen to that hang time. Give me another. >> Dave: Sound effects are really weird. >> Julianna: Okay, well, before we get into it, what? We can't play any clips from, um, wet lake, but we encourage you to check it out for yourself. Vinyl is always the best option. Um, I don't know if this. >> Dave: Oh, there's a seven inch deluxe version.

>> Julianna: Gotcha. But you can also stream it online, um, with your local streaming. >> Dave: Yes. Streamers. >> Julianna: Streamer. Yeah. Okay, Dave, why don't you kick it off? Would you bring to drink? And why did you pick this record? >> Dave: Okay, so, first off, the beer, because the beer always comes first. From garden, um,

Good ol' Boy Dave's pick: Ron's Not Bitter - ordinary bitter dry hopped with Fuggles and Golding hops, aged on white oak and conditioned with honey and native wild yeast. 3.9% ABV Garden Path Fermentation Burlington, WA SUDS-4

path fermentation in Burlington, Washington. It's. Ron's not bitter. It's 3.9% ordinary bitter, but it's not ordinary. It was, uh, let's see. Dry hopped with, uh, fuggles and goldings. And it was canned, conditioned. It was oak fermented. They used native wild yeast, and they conditioned it on honey as well. So, yeah, a lot of stuff going on there. >> Speaker B: Yeah, there is a lot going on. >> Dave: And that's kind of why I picked this to go with the

album. There's, you know, on the surface, it's a silly album. A couple girls singing, uh, singing about, you know, people going. Getting high and going to the supermarket or breaking up or, you know, angry at their ex and lots of different little things that the youngsters go through these days. Um, but there's a lot of wit to it, too. You know, kind of like we mentioned before. And a lot of depth to some of the songs beyond just, you know, singing about a chaise, long and wet

dreams and stuff like that. So I really thought I would like to bring a beer that seems, you know, it's. It's a british style. A beer is a british style, which I love, but. But there's a lot going on underneath it. So I haven't really had this beer before. So we're gonna try it and we're gonna see. But this is the beer I thought would pair well. So try it and tell me what you think. >> Julianna: Cool.

>> Speaker B: Yes. It's like kind of a, uh, modern, um, or alternative take on a bitter, maybe. >> Dave: Yeah, that's a good, good way to put it. I also thought, though, with the oak fermenting in Oakland, it might be a kind of a throwback to how a bitter might have tasted. Like, way back when all they had was native yeast and everything was fermented, you know? >> Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, it's a good point. Um, it's a. It's. It's interesting.

>> Dave: Present itself as a bitter. >> Speaker B: It does not. >> Dave: It's more like, if you had to ask me, I would say farmhouse, mixed culture farmhouse beer. >> Speaker B: Totally. >> Julianna: Um. >> Speaker B: Um, it's got a little tang. Sour tang to it. >> Dave: Yeah. >> Julianna: Yeah. There's. There's a bar near funk in here. >> Speaker B: And there's oak, which, you know, goes in a lot of Cezanne, farmhouse, whatever.

>> Dave: Like, you're saying a lot going on for 3.9%. >> Speaker B: There is. It's impressive. >> Julianna: Yeah. I mean, it's great in that regard that you're getting so much flavor out of it. And I like how the oak on it ends, like, everything. >> Speaker B: Yeah, it does. It's a nice finish, and I think. >> Dave: Maybe it plays well with the name of the beer. Ron's not bitter, so maybe Ron isn't bitter. Or maybe this is Ron's not bitter beer. So there you go.

>> Speaker B: Maybe. Yeah, maybe. >> Julianna: Yeah. Ron likes a lot of bitters. And this is as non as it gets. >> Dave: Yeah, sure. >> Julianna: Yeah. >> Speaker B: Because it's not bitter. >> Dave: Sure, sure. >> Julianna: But I think the play on words goes along with the wet leg. >> Dave: Yes. If I drink too many of these, I might have a wet leg. You know what I mean? >> Speaker B: That's a good. But that's a good plan.

Words. >> Dave: These are small beer, so it take a lot of these to, uh, get to that point. But, like my favorite song, it's kind of hard to pick one favorite song. I feel I'm having a julie moment, but I'm going to go ahead and say chase long is my favorite song. It's very witty. It was the first single off the album. Um, and it's just a really. It's kind of upbeat songs. Got a lot going on, and has the line, um,

uh, is your muffin buttered? Would you like us to assign someone to butter your muffin? Okay. >> Speaker B: What is that about? >> Dave: That's. Dude, that's. That's classy. Okay. That's. That's almost Shakespeare. >> Speaker B: Yeah. Maybe they're related. >> Dave: They might be there. >> Julianna: Yeah. Same neighborhood, so why not? >> Dave: So I'm. I'm all in on wet leg. Yeah, of course.

>> Speaker B: Yeah, of course. That was the first song I had heard on this album a while ago, and I did not like it, uh, the first time I heard it. Yeah, it was, like, a little. Little repetitive, you know? >> Julianna: Really? >> Dave: No, a little bit. Just a little bit. >> Speaker B: And I've gotten over it. I like it. I like it a little more now, but it figures it'd be your favorite song. >> Dave: Yeah, that's fine.

>> Speaker B: You can be, you know, you're very repetitive. >> Dave: Yeah, well, I am a little repetitive. Let me just reiterate what I was saying. >> Julianna: But of course. >> Speaker B: Wow.

>> Julianna: Okay. Um. All right, so getting back to this beer, I. I mean, I think it pairs well with the record because it's a juxtaposition of things, and I think this record is a juxtaposition of so many things, and it's very tongue in cheek, you know, in a british sort of way, which I could see why it's, um, been nominated for, you know, so many awards. >> Dave: 9000 awards and 9000. Yes. >> Julianna: Yeah, yeah. >> Dave: And I won 8999.

>> Speaker B: Ah, you can't win them all. >> Julianna: There's just one that got away. >> Dave: That's exactly right. >> Julianna: I. Yeah. >> Speaker B: Thank you. Thank you. >> Julianna: Okay. >> Dave: So how do you like the beer, though? >> Julianna: Um. Um, it's. It confused me. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Julianna: You know, at first because I'm thinking of it as a bitter, as in an

english bidder, and I'm like, oh, yeah, that makes sense. Like, have an english bidder with an english band. But, um. Um, no, it's definitely more saison yemenite, you know, more barnyard funk. That being said, I like it because it's mellow in the scheme of things. It's not too much. And I. And I like the amount of oak that they use because it's a nice. Just finish. It's not. There's nothing really that lingers. You get that oak. Like you're. You're chewing on an oak

spiral at the end. Not that I chew oak spirals in general. But if I was to chew on a wet oak spiral, I would get that little, like, zhuzh from the wood, and then it would be done some tannins or. Yeah, yeah. >> Speaker B: Right. So little. >> Julianna: Does that make sense? >> Speaker B: Yeah, definitely. I agree. It is. It is. A juxtaposition is the best way to describe it because, I mean, a bitter and a cezanner are pretty far, pretty far apart on the beer spectrum.

>> Julianna: Yeah, they're. Yeah. >> Speaker B: And so maybe we're misreading the label and it shouldn't have been, but when you put that on. On there, it kind of conjures up an idea. And then it says it's a native yeast ale conditioned with honey, which, I mean, I get what those words mean, but that's. >> Dave: That says farmhouse, right? >> Speaker B: It does, yeah, yeah. Um. But, yeah. For what, say, 3.8% or something? >> Dave: 3.83.9. Yeah.

>> Speaker B: The flavors, it's awesome. It's incredible. It's very impressive. And it's got. With the yeast, with the malt, with the oak. Um, there's just a couple layers, you know, things to enjoy. >> Dave: I wonder if the honey was too much because, like, it just. It kind of dries it out in a way. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Dave: Like, maybe if it was a little less. But I don't know. It's pretty nice, though. >> Julianna: Do you get any of the

hops in this at all? Cuz I don't know. Okay. I just think that they're lost. >> Dave: The dry hop. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Dave: And then dry hopping it and then can conditioning. It feels like there's a lot. There's so much going on after the initial fermentation. Like, it maybe it's just sort of counterproductive. >> Julianna: Yeah, yeah. And I'm not honestly getting a lot

of honey out of this either, though. I feel like the honey dried it out a bit, you know, gives you that more. Yeah. >> Dave: But I think that kind of accentuated the tartness, too. >> Julianna: Yeah. >> Dave: Okay, good. >> Julianna: So we're going to rate it a four, and we'll be back in just a minute.

>> Speaker E: It's not just the destination, but, baby, the whole elation riding down the slope lovers avenue as slow as a willow blows or as fast as the whirlwind grows we glide beneath the stars and cobalt blue look to the left, to the right keep your eyes on the road, my darling wondering if we're only passing through open roads and open windows my hand is yours forever, sweet love our eyes ahead on these back roads with a view.

>> Julianna: So today we're doing a pic by good old boy Dave. >> Dave: Hey, that's me, everybody. And I picked wet leg by wet leg because I've got a wet leg. My beer that we just covered was, uh, Ron's not bitter from garden path fermentation in Burlington, uh, Washington. >> Julianna: And now we'll move on to m. >> Dave: Good old boy, Tim. Good old boy Tim, why don't you share your beer that you paired with wet leg by wet leg.

>> Speaker B: For wet leg by wet leg, I

Good ol' Boy Tim's pick: Das Wunderkind! Blend #26 Bière de Coupage farmhouse ale- a young, fresh, hoppy farmhouse ale, blended with mature, barrel-aged wild beer, then giving the blend a fresh dry hop of El Dorado, Moteuka, Meridian and Simcoe hops. This was bottle conditioned for 8 months in the bottle. 5% ABV Jester King Brewery, Austin TX SUDS-5

chose a beer from our friends at Jester King. And the beer I chose is Das wunderkind. Das wunderkinder kind. >> Dave: Yeah. It means amazing baby. >> Speaker B: Well, it. The picture on the bottle looks like an amazing baby. >> Dave: Yeah. >> Speaker B: From another dimension, but, yeah, this is a, um, Cezanne from them. >> Dave: Okay. >> Speaker B: They're so good at making cezannes. >> Dave: They don't stink at it.

>> Speaker B: Yeah. And it comes in right at 5%. >> Dave: Nice. >> Speaker B: Um, and. >> Dave: And it's in a bomber. >> Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, it's old school. Right. >> Dave: See, bombers too much anymore. >> Speaker B: Not. I mean, I'm still a fan of bombers, I think, for some beers. Yeah, I agree. We got a little bomber crazy for a while, and then everyone's trying to sell $20 bombers. >> Dave: Yeah. >> Speaker B: Next to $12.06 pack.

>> Dave: Well, they're leaving them sitting out in the top shelf of the store and get all janked up. >> Speaker B: Yep. But I think certain styles. I'm. I'm still a fan of cezanne bombers. Um, it was weird. We used to start putting all the high gravity things in bombers, but this is the largest bottle format. Wouldn't you want something that's a little more drinkable? >> Dave: Well, and I think, too, like, I think the high gravity stuff is good in a bomber because you want to

share it. But I think also bombers. And I wonder, though, like, you know, how those 19 ounce cans or I. 19.2 ounce cans right now, is that gonna be the new bomber? >> Speaker B: Yeah. I don't know. I don't. >> Dave: I mean, I know it's usually for gas station beers, but pretty much. Why couldn't you put a nice, big Cezanne in there? >> Speaker B: Well, like, um. Um, Oscar blues. They put, like. I think they're 1050 in some tall ones as well.

>> Dave: Um, like, bombers are just. They're kind of clunky. They take up a lot of shelf space. And I think that's one of the reasons people got away from. >> Speaker B: Yeah, that is true. And as we got away from glass. But I'm just still romantic for the old school bombers. So I like. Like, jester King still does. Yeah. People just don't. Don't do them like they used to.

Um, but anyways, I was kind of in a conundrum about what beer to pick for this album because there's so much going on in the album. >> Dave: Yeah. >> Speaker B: Um, and I do really like it. I've. I listened to it a lot before you. You had chosen it, and I was thinking about going to something british and then just thought that seemed too obvious. And all the british stuff that your english stuff that we get

over here is. It's just the, um, cool, boring, but it's the stuff we've had forever. >> Dave: And get fullers. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Dave: You know? >> Speaker B: Yeah. Sam Smith. Like, um. Or Sam Smith. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, which are great beers, but like, speckled hen, I think I saw or something today, too. And. And that's like, those beers are the opposite of what this album is, I think. >> Julianna: Yeah, because those are very traditional.

>> Speaker B: Like, exactly. >> Julianna: Wish, you know, I wish we were able to get some of the newer breweries that are doing their interpretations of east or West coast ipas or just like, ipas in general, you know, because that's not something that would be a common british beer that you would have on a hand pump. You know what I mean? >> Speaker B: Right, yeah. So, like, yeah, even some brew dog, you know, doing some weird stuff, but, yeah.

Um, but then, I don't know, the more I thought about it, like, I think Cezanne obviously can embody so many sort of different things within the. The realm of Cezanne. And I do feel like this album kind of has songs. There are a lot of different silly songs, um, that are just fun and playful. And I feel like cezannes are like that too. It's a style that you can kind of freelance a little, you know, go off the cuff, be a little different, but still be within the style kind.

>> Dave: Of fits any mood. >> Speaker B: Totally. Yeah. Yeah. >> Julianna: Well, yeah, because think about all the adjuncts that you can add to a traditional saisone. Still be classified as a cezanne, but you've got, I mean, you run the gamut of flavors, which is, you know. >> Dave: Pretty well if you think about, like, you know, thinking about Cezanne Dupont versus, like, BlackBerry farm cezanne. >> Julianna: Sure. >> Speaker B: Oh, yeah.

>> Julianna: Yeah. That's, like, nice. I mean, it's almost night and day, but yet they're both so good. >> Speaker B: Yeah. And then this one even is a, uh, mixed culture Cezanne, you know, which I personally kind of categorize as just completely different than, uh, traditional. Yeah. Even if. Even if traditional one has Brett or something, if it doesn't have bacteria and not not a mixed culture. Like, the flavor is just so different. >> Julianna: Oh, yeah.

>> Dave: Jester King is so good about using their native yeast from around Austin, you know, the little floaties. And I think that's kind of cool. Along with the wet leg bringing their own little sound and style from the Isle of wight, you know. Yeah, kind of the same kind of thing. >> Speaker B: Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Jester King definitely embraces where they are and drink local. Totally. Yeah. And they've been that way for a while.

Um, another fun fact is, um, when I did one of my, like, podcasts with good old boy Mike, um, the one on one. Yeah, the chats, I did it with Capert. Good old boy Caperton. Um, who, uh, if you don't know, he's passed away, but he was a huge cezanne fan. >> Dave: The biggest. >> Speaker B: And in that, um, chats episode that we did at the end, Mike kind of was firing off random questions and he asked him about, like, one of his

favorite albums. And Kiberton had some weird answer about what do you call an album and a band and some. I couldn't even, I couldn't even get there. Um, but then he said, you know, one album I've been really listening to and enjoying a lot is wet leg. Uh. >> Dave: Are you kidding me? >> Speaker B: Yeah, there's like, two years ago, you know, if you'd listen to the chats that I did. >> Dave: I try not to listen to, but.

>> Speaker B: Yeah, it was, uh, and I had heard, I think, just the chaise launch, uh, which, as I said, I was, you know, torn on in the beginning. But then I remember going and listening to the rest of the album and, um, you know, Caperton was an older, not old dude, but I thought I knew he was a huge music fan. But it was kind of funny when I was like, wow, I didn't expect the one thing I could see him. >> Dave: Like, in the front row of a wet leg.

>> Speaker B: Oh, my God, 100%. Yeah. And when I listened to them, I was like, of course he likes them. Like, they're awesome and funny and silly. >> Dave: Yeah, just like him. >> Speaker B: Yeah, exactly. So I didn't plan on doing the saison, but then when I saw this, I said, well, it just kind of seems. >> Dave: That's a perfect dude. >> Julianna: Yeah, it's a perfect. It's a perfect fit. And I mean, Chester King, have you ever had a bad beer by them?

>> Speaker B: It's pretty rare. >> Julianna: Probably not white. >> Dave: I'm just kidding. >> Julianna: But no, I mean, and this is a classic. I mean, it's been around for years and we've got an old bottle in. >> Dave: Our cellar right now. >> Speaker B: Yeah. And the. The folks from wetleg, uh, they ain't old. They're pretty young, and they're pretty impressive already. So they are wunderkind. Um, sort of wunderkinds of their own.

>> Julianna: Yeah, yeah. Perfect. We are going to rate das wunderkind a five. And, hey, now we're on to meet now for some. >> Speaker B: Here we are. >> Dave: All right. This has been a great episode, everybody. Want to thank you for joining us for. >> Speaker B: We're gonna end early. >> Julianna: Love you guys. So, stinky, what are you saying? >> Speaker B: Thought it was a beer chat.

>> Julianna: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so this record, not, um, as familiar with it as you two are, and I'm familiar with it just because of Dave, um, playing it and playing that one song in particular. Sometimes he can get into a boy and play that multiple times over and over. Yeah. Just like that cake song. >> Dave: I'm not gonna sing it on. We'd have to pay rihanna some money. >> Julianna: Yeah, there's just some things that are unnatural.

But anyways, so then I got to like listening to the whole record on my own, singly, not playing one particular song over and over and over again on repeat. And I was like, you know what? I like these guys because they have that sarcasm and that tongue in cheek, like, you know, we're gonna say. We're gonna be like southern

people are. Instead of coming off with expletives, they have a nice roundabout way of saying that you're the worst person in the world without telling you that you're the worst person in the world. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Julianna: You know, very british and. Yeah, and they're very. Yeah, they're very good about that. >> Speaker B: Or buttering the muffin. >> Julianna: Yeah, right. But I didn't know butter. I didn't know what to come up

with. It's hard because they're sort of all over the place, and I couldn't think of a beer per se, that would fit the model. So I did something completely different, and I

Good ol' Gal Julieanna's pick: Cape Codder can cocktail featuring house vodka, Massachusetts cranberry juice and lime juice. 7% ABV Tree House Distillery, Charleton, MA SUDS-5

went with the Cape codder, which. Okay. Tree house is very near and dear to my heart. >> Dave: Um, Triasper and company. >> Julianna: Yes. >> Dave: Boston. Ma. >> Speaker B: Charlton. >> Dave: Charlton. >> Julianna: Yeah, Charlton. Not Boston. >> Dave: Try to get a flight, though. >> Julianna: They have an, uh. They have a place in Tewksbury now, which is really gorgeous, but they don't brew there. It's just a, um, tap room in a lodge that is

just stunning. Anyways, for those of you that may or may not know, they also make spirits. And so they're starting to can some cocktails and the cape codder using their house vodka, um, is one of these canned cocktails, and I absolutely love this. Um, I mean, in general, this is, to me, the quintessential cape Cod summer cocktail. >> Dave: Trailer park sangria. >> Speaker B: That's what he was saving it for. >> Dave: Kidding. >> Speaker B: Oh, man.

>> Dave: Very good. Love is in the air. >> Julianna: Yeah. Love is so in the air. Um, cranberries, lime juice, and vodka. Like the simplest of things, but yet so refreshing and to me, so great in the summer. Now, how does that relate to wet lake? Well, because it's off the beaten path. And I know we're a beer driven podcast, but yet, you know, today I'm kind of pushing that envelope with a brewery that is thinking outside the box.

>> Dave: Yeah. >> Julianna: Um, you know, to keep with the trend, so to speak. >> Speaker B: Yeah. >> Julianna: And I think they did a wonderful job on this cocktail, like, of coming up with this. Like, it's so New England, but yet you could have it even here in the south. >> Speaker B: Yeah, I mean, it's. >> Julianna: And it could be very delicious. Yeah. Now, wet lake. Okay. So once I started listening to the record, I really enjoyed it.

Now, what song to pick? And. Yeah, that's. I mean, that's a tough one because there's a lot of songs, like, I could go out on a limb and say Angelica is really good because I like the kind of psychedelic. I mean, and I've been there to those parties where you're just, like, sort of going through the motions because you really don't want to be there, but you feel like you have to because you have a friend that invited you and, you know, and. >> Dave: Mm hmm.

>> Julianna: Okay. But I also really, like, um, don't want to go out because, again, I've been there, too, sometimes where you just don't feel like going out. But also, for whatever reason, to me, it just reminds me of a David Bowie record. Like, it's just I get that kind of psychedelic y kind of thing going on with it. Um, which, again, is, like, so completely different than the chase lone song that, you know, is so popular. >> Speaker B: Right.

>> Julianna: But goes along with, you know, how they're sort of all over the place, but still cohesively together and they come up with a decent record. >> Speaker B: Yeah. And a great overall. Exactly. >> Julianna: And for them being so young, I can't wait to see what the future holds for them. >> Speaker B: That's awesome. Yeah. >> Julianna: Yeah. Okay, so what do you guys think of the Cape codder? >> Dave: I think it's great. It's tart,

uh, very refreshing. And the. The amount of it's weird in a canned I cocktail. Like, you know, they made a ton of this stuff. Somehow they still got the lime just right. >> Julianna: I know, right? >> Dave: Uh, that's weird. >> Speaker B: That's a good point. I hadn't thought about that. But it's. It is the perfect amount of lime. I mean, the juices just taste very fresh. You know, there's nothing tastes fake.

>> Julianna: It's like you just made it yourself, right, with the fresh lime, with some fresh cranberries that you pressed yourself, and then that bit of vodka. >> Speaker B: And what's the alkal ABV alcohol? >> Dave: 13%. >> Julianna: No, it is not 13%. >> Dave: 75%. >> Julianna: No, it's seven. >> Speaker B: Seven. That's. >> Dave: That's actually pretty big. >> Speaker B: Yeah, it is. Yeah. Well, it's

sneaky, but it's nice. I mean, uh, I guess coming in twelve ounce cans, maybe you'll. You're gonna have to. >> Julianna: Yeah. >> Dave: But I think. I think, though, the. The whole 7%, they're not selling this as a locale, you know, no weight loss alternative. >> Julianna: Yes. >> Speaker B: Ah. >> Julianna: New England is known for having cocktails, not little aperitifs and low gravity.

>> Dave: They didn't sacrifice flavor. And that's. I think that really shows in this thing. >> Speaker B: Yes, absolutely. >> Julianna: And you don't taste. There's no alcohol burn. You don't taste it. You just taste the fruits. And you just went to a bar. >> Dave: And got a good drink. >> Julianna: Yeah, exactly. >> Speaker B: Yeah. I barely taste the vodka. Really? >> Julianna: Yeah. I mean, not that you really would taste taste, but there's

really no alcoholic burn on this at all. So what do you guys think of it? Um, okay, well, I'm in five territory, so we're gonna rate this a five. >> Speaker B: Let's do it. >> Julianna: Good old boy. Dave. I think this was a great record choice. >> Dave: Of course it is. >> Julianna: I mean, beer slash alcoholic. >> Dave: Yeah. >> Julianna: Compliments to it. Yeah. Um, good old boy, Tim. Thanks for being here.
