On the 15th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast, the Drink of the Week is Trial by Wombat. This is a hazy/New England IPA that comes in a four pack with 16 oz cans. Trial by Wombat is brewed by Thin Man Brewing. They are located in Buffalo, New York and it's something we haven't heard of before.
Brewed with copious amounts of Australian galaxy hops and flaked oats, this 7% AVB beer isn't bad! It also has a prominent peach and pineapple flavor with hints of orange or maybe even grapefruit. You definitely get some fire can art with this one. Trial by Wombat has a close-up picture of a wombat showing those wacky teeth!

On the 14th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast, the Drink of the Week is Mr. Waterbury. We have an American IPA today, a common theme on the 4th season here. Mr. Waterbury is made by Big Tree Brewing Company out of Waterbury, VT.
We chose this drink because of the name of the beer alone. The Waterbury reference hits close to home, literally. We live in the Waterbury, CT area but we didn't know that there was also a Waterbury in Vermont.
Apparently Big Tree Brewing is a side project made by Mark Frier. He's a popular guy in the Waterbury, Vermont area who is known for restaurants. However, he makes beer too, by doing local partnerships. You can read more about him and the partnership here.
Mr. Waterbury is a hazy citra hop IPA. It has a pale, goldish color with a white foam head. It has a strong aroma of tangerine and grapefruit. This beer has an ABV of 6% and it's fairly easy to drink. It also had a fair amount of bitterness along with the strong fruity flavors. We felt like it was hard to give this drink an identity. Overall, not bad but it's hard to see this one standing out compared to other IPA's on the show this season.
How We Rated Mr. Waterbury Rob’s Rating: 5.4/10 Kev’s Rating: 6.2/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website to find out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.Here’s how the episode goes down with Mr. Waterbury.
Show Notes
Wedding season: Rob just went to his sister Laina's wedding and we talked about the greatest moments from a wedding celebration. Kev makes it a point to hit the dance floor literally the entire time. Pesky things that bother you: We about how minuscule things could really ruin your whole mood! Whether it's a popcorn kernel stuck in your mouth, a loose collar hitting your neck, or a piece of rubber dragging on the bottom of your shoe. Dave Chappelle: He recently had his own comedy special drop on Netflix. Netflix is taking lots of heat for backing him up with his controversial content.

On the 13th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast, the Drink of the Week is Flexural Strength. We have a Scotch Ale/Wee Heavy drink on our hands, not something that we've ever heard of. Flexural Strength is made by Reverie Brewing Company out of Newtown, CT.
Flexural Strength is a slightly hoppy ale, medium in color, and has an ABV of 7.7%. We found this beer tucked way in the back of our beer stash. While we never heard of this brewery before and any beers that they have, this was surprised us. It's complemented by peanut butter with a malty taste to it. Overall, we embraced this delightful surprise with a positive review because it's repeatably drinkable. Well done!
How We Rated Flexural Strength Rob’s Rating: 7.7/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.7/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Here’s how the episode goes down with Flexural Strength.
Rating PeopleWe're baffled how humans rate each other whether it's based on looks or personality. We score humans on a scale of 1 through 10. Your whole existence! Rated with this bare bones scale. Would you want to know what other people are rating you if you could?
Throwback Segment!We went back to old-school "Would You Rather?" questions. It's been a while since we did this.
Would you rather not eat fruit again? Or would you rather not eat meat ever again?
Would you rather give up Chinese food? Or would you rather give up Mexican food?
Movie Plot IdeaAs the Flexural Strength was flowing through us, we got even more creative. How about this for a movie plot? The main character could manipulate the dreams of others. Similar to Freddy in a way. But it's much more subtle for a super power. You can influence the decisions of others and control their dreams! This spun off into thinking about the subconscious and how you can condition it.

On the 12th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast in Season 4, our Drink of the Week is Karate in the Water by Beer'd Brewing Company. It's a New England style IPA meant to be smooth like Karate in the Water with Australian Enigma hops. Each sip is like a burst of fruit (maybe pineapple?) and it has a 6.1% ABV.
It's an orange shaded beer and pours with a bright white head. The can says it's brewed with flaked oats and flaked wheat. We both had a pretty similar tasting experience with this one. So much that we actually came up with identical scores. We agreed that the initial sip is definitely good. However, the mouthfeel and what comes afterwards kind of turns into more bitterness than we would like.
Beer'd could be hit or miss on drinks. Although it is a pretty cool place to be out of Stonington, CT. This limited release was nice to try, but probably could pass if we saw it again compared to the competition of NEIPA's out there. Pretty cool can and beer title though for sure.

Halloween or ThanksgivingSome holiday talk as we kick off October. Which of the two holidays do you like better? Is Halloween more exciting than ever now that we are adults with costume events?
Mop SlanderThere's a bit in this episode honestly just blasting mops. Why are they still a thing? There are Swiffers out there that actually clean the floor. Mops just take in dirt and redistribute the dirty water on to the floor.
The Dating GameWe talked about greeting somebody on a first date. Right from the first glance. Do you play it safe with a hug? Or even pope-level conservative with a handshake? There's also the kiss on the cheek if you're feeling bold. A good portion of this episode is about dating experiences and how it's about having fun and reading signals from the other person.

On the 11th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast in Season 4, our Drink of the Week is Double Hop Hop by Aeronaut Brewing Co. If you couldn't guess from the title, this beer is a double IPA with an ABV of 8.4%. Double Hop Hop features hazy citrus and mosaic hops out of Somerville, MA. It's also described as having flavors of cold-extracted hops steeped in Aeronaut's whirlpool following vigorous fermentation.
Double Hop Hop is a wonderfully balanced beer with tropical flavor. As expected with any double IPA, we tasted to see just how well the high ABV is masked behind the fruitiness. This is our first go with Aeronaut Brewing, and it certainly did not disappoint. Definitely an addicting taste to it that we both agreed that we can stock up on. An absolute killer beer to have! Here's how we rated it.
How We Rated Double Hop Hop Rob’s Rating: 8.8/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.6/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Here’s how the episode goes down with Double Hop Hop.
What to Expect This FallHow could we describe what the first week of Fall means? Seeing people jog while you drive on a crisp morning. Seeing mist or even frost on your car with the heat on. Followed by putting the AC on by the middle of the day. Layering up your wardrobe, yet layering down as the day goes on. We both enjoy the amount of ways you can dress in Fall weather. Fairs, ciders, pumpkin stuff, and all the goods! Oh, back to the people jogging on the side of the road part. How can you not just silently root for those people hustling out there while you drive!
Adjusting your RoutineMainly on Kev's side as he lands a new career. How do you set your routine throughout the day? When you have a career, how do you keep that work-life balance? Especially when it comes to staying active exercising and keeping up with your passions and hobbies (aka podcasting!).
Solo DatesHave you ever tried a solo date before? Whether it would be taking yourself out to eat or a shopping trip. It could be anything, but it's a fun way just to unwind for a bit. It's also a bit of a challenge if you haven't done it before. One thing about solo dates though, is that you might be more observant of what's going on around you.

On the 10th episode of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast in Season 4, the Drink of the Week is Baby Kittens by Fat Orange Cats Brew Co. It's a regular IPA with a pale yellow color. It has a tiny amount of bitterness at the first sip followed by hints of passionfruit and citrus. Baby Kittens is a really solid IPA with a mild undertone of spicy hops. This IPA also sports a lime green can loaded with drawings of kittens of all different shades of orange.
It's a fantastic choice for an IPA that deserves at least an 8 out of 10. We pointed out that in Connecticut, you have lots of great IPAs that fall into this range. It's more on the simple side, but at the same time it's a pleasant beer to have. We would definitely buy it again.
How We Rated Baby Kittens Rob’s Rating: 8.2/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.0/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Here’s how the episode goes down with Baby Kittens.
American Culture DestinationsYou'll always hear us talk about what it means to live in Connecticut. A main advantage that we have is having the opportunity to travel to New York which is famous worldwide. We talked about what Miami is like (especially for breweries). The breweries down in Miami infuse Latino culture within their beer and events which is something uncommon for Connecticut.
We also mentioned going down South because you get elements of culture that you can't get up here. In particular, BBQ food down in Texas or the famous partying in New Orleans.
Think about how we know what staples of culture are in the U.S. without even visiting there. Wisconsin is known for cheese but we don't know anything else about it.
SquirrelsJust a quick thought, did you ever notice how squirrels freeze and observe at times? Squirrels actually communicate and sense danger with their tails. They also wag their tail to alert other squirrels of any danger nearby.
What Had the Bigger Fall Off? Milk or Blockbuster Video?How did we get to this question? We don't know either. We talked about milk in households over time. Milk was in food pyramids for kids and recommended in regular diets. Now milk has taken a downturn because of HGH and overall just not being good for you.
Blockbuster on the other hand, also got crushed by Netflix back in the day. Blockbuster was in nearly every town! People rented movies and games in-store and that's how it was. Netflix started with their mail in service complimented with a digital streaming service.
On a side note, Netflix also made cable TV take a hit. A big problem with cable is obviously the price. But also we don't need hundreds of channels with random shows playing for us. Not to mention, cable shows us irrelevant ads that don't keep our attention.

On episode 8 of the Bois & Bar Talk podcast, we are drinking Warheads by Artisanal Brew Works. This special variety pack is based off the popular sour candy with four flavors. The 4-pack features Black cherry, Watermelon, Sour Apple, and Blue Raspberry.
Artisanal Brew Works is an artisanal style beer microbrewery out of Saratoga Springs, New York. On their website, Artisanal says that they, "make world-class beer in upstate New York with local ingredients".
How We Rated WarheadsIt was definitely one of the most entertaining things we've done on the show for this episode. You know the usual drill. We usually each take a can and rate the beer. But we felt like we had to try all four flavors in the variety pack. So that's what we did and we rated each flavor. Overall you get a perfectly replicated Warhead smell to each beer.
The flavor was very different representing each flavor. We both averaged around a 6 out of 10 for the variety pack, except for Sour Apple. That's where things got interesting. Kev immediately started gagging while Rob enjoyed it. Rob gave this one a 6.2 while Kev gave it a 0! That's right, the first 0 out of 10 ever given on the show!
Show NotesThis is more like a quick summary of what to expect. Complete chaos. We wanted to try live streaming the episode on Instagram (@boisandbartalk). We found a tripod for the phone and tried to go back in forth between interacting with the live stream and recording an official episode. Not to mention, we have an absolute scorcher of a day which meant sweat. Add a fast moving centipede, our headphones not working, and trying to squeeze four beers into a 30 minute episode.

On the 7th episode of Season 4 on Bois & Bar Talk, we are drinking Sizzling Hippie. Our Drink of the Week comes from Thomas Hooker Brewing Co. out of Bloomfield, CT. Thomas Hooker is a favorite of ours and they deliver lots of consistent beers. Sizzling Hippie doesn’t disappoint either.
Sizzling Hippie is a Nelson Citra IPA with an ABV of 6.4%. The psychedelic can art caught our attention when we were shopping for new beers. It’s available year-round and has white grape and citrus flavors. The color resembles a passion fruit! Overall it’s a juicy delight that comes in a four-pack.
How We Rated Sizzling Hippie Rob’s Rating: 7.8/10 Kev’s Rating: 7.6/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Here’s how the episode goes down with Sizzling Hippie.
The Ending of SummerWe broke down our pros and cons of the summer vs the fall. Kev enjoys the fall while Rob would rather just live in the summer all the time. Rob argues that daylight cuts down, the sight of dead trees, too many hoody days are dreadful. Kev mentions fall festivities, mixing and matching outfits, and crisp air make for a good fall season.
Age PerspectiveTalking about our age (27) was a huge talking point on this episode. It was more introspective and we looked deeper into what’s going on in our lives. In the mid-late twenties, people you know are all over the place. Some people move, have families, go back to school, or maybe they are still finding themselves.
With an exposure on social media, we don’t even need a high school reunion to get a glimpse of what everybody else is doing. While it’s a good thing, we discussed the flip side. It’s constant pressure comparing yourself to other people even though we all live our own lives.
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**kThis is a popular book that Rob mentioned that he is reading. While you could easily go on for a whole episode about the book, we covered a page or two. Mark Manson (the author) talks about overthinking simple questions that we ask ourselves. It could be as simple as “How do I apply for this job”?
While we know how to apply to a job, it’s the thought of overthinking it to death! A question like “How do I ask this person out?” might make you freeze on the spot. It’s a simple action, yet the process of thinking about it too hard makes us doubt the whole thing in the first place.

Today, on the sixth episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking Golden Messenger by Hog River Brewing out of Hartford, CT. It's the first time that we tried Hog River out as we don't know much about the brewery.
Golden Messenger is a Kölsch-style ale. We've been on a kick with German beers this season. It has a 4.8% ABV and has a lighter style. This beer has German-style hops, malt, and has a balanced taste.
This one had mixed ratings between the two of us. Kev wasn't much of a fan and would rather have a Bud Light if he was going for a light beer. Rob enjoyed the citrus/pineapple hints of flavor and like how it tasted for such a light drink. You can also find Golden Messenger for pretty cheap. The four-pack costed around $9.
How We Rated Golden Messenger Rob’s Rating: 7.4/10 Kev’s Rating: 5.8/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Show NotesBeach
We discussed our only beach day of the summer so far. During the trip we brought a sophisticated, giant cooler. This thing could do it all. It even had a hot dog making feature and has a built-in radio signal that scares away seagulls.
Why do some beaches always have to have strict rules?
What would aliens think if the first place they visited on Earth was a crowded beach?
Cotton Candy
We stopped for 2 minutes during the episode for a cotton candy break.
Thrilling Activities
We discussed parasailing and roller coasters. It's weird how kids aren't nearly as scared as adults when it comes to taking risks.
Church
Kev went to church but couldn't stand it. Literally, he doesn't like to stand and kneel constantly!

Today, on the fifth episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking Workhorse by Counterweight Brewing Company. We continued our journey to find different style beers, and this one was pretty unique.
-
Today, on the fourth episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking I Love Lamp by Evil Genius Brewing Company out of Philadelphia, PA. We continued our journey to find different style beers, and this one was pretty unique.
I Love Lamp is a german style hefeweizen. It had a very yellowish color and we poured it into a glass. Very foamy right from the first pour. Even Kev’s professional pouring still managed to get half foam, half beer in the glass! Bright white head and has a banana aroma.
Overall, it was kind of refreshing on the first sip. I Love Lamp is a wheat ale and has an ABV of 5.5%. Mostly you could find I Love Lamp available in the summer. The taste has banana with a twist of pineapple. We rated this one a little later in the episode so we got some extra tasting before making a decision. Even though the first sip was impressive, it did dwindle a little bit as we went on. Not too bad however, and we thought it was an alright beer to have!

Rob’s Rating: 6.5/10 Kev’s Rating: 6.2/10 -
Today, on the third episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking Czech Mix by Back East Brewing Company. We’ve been trying to get a mixture of new beers rather than our heavy doses of IPA’s.
Czech Mix is a pilsner with an ABV of 4.9%. With typical pilsner fashion, it pours with a golden, yellowish body and a bright white head. Czech Mix has some subtle hops to it with a crispy flavor. It has a solid amount of carbonation, but it’s a light-bodied beer with a European twist.
Overall, it’s a reasonably priced beer, you can usually get a six-pack for around $10. Great starter beer if you’re at the bar and want something on tap.
Would we drink it again? Maybe, there’s so many options out there that it’s hard to choose this one over the rest. There was nothing wrong with Czech Mix, but it’s not exactly outstanding.
Back East Brewing Co. on the other hand, is a wonderful brewery with a great selection of drinks. Not a bad choice and a clever play on Chex Mix.
How We Rated Czech Mix Rob’s Rating: 6.4/10 Kev’s Rating: 6.7/10 -
Today, on the second episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking Lunch by Maine Beer Company. We’re getting the ball rolling now and you better know we’ve been stacking up beer choices for this season!
Lunch is an IPA that you could drink at any time of the year. It’s a popular one out there, and we found out what the name “Lunch” actually means. It’s a special whale that was spotted off the Maine coast in 1982. The whale looks like it carries a bite mark on the fin.
Overall, Kev really wanted to try this one on the podcast. We bought a few 16 oz bottles and poured them in a glass. Lunch has a 7% ABV with tropical flavors such as orange, grapefruit, and has a malt sweetness to it. There is definitely some intense hops going on, but the finishing taste isn’t very bitter at all.
On Beer Advocate, Lunch has a score of 97/100. We both agreed that the beer was excellent and had no complaints other than availability. It’s a hard beer to find for us, and when we do, it’s going to be on the expensive side.
How We Rated Lunch Rob’s Rating: 8.5/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.3/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
During Lunch, we kicked off the episode with a first sip and review of the beer. One of the first topics we got into was customer service (a popular rant). We talked about the standard 20% average tip and if it’s enough. Kev’s been in the restaurant business for most of his adult life, so he’s used to it. Rob on the other hand, can’t stand job with customer service.
Have you ever thought about what a world with no money would feel like? We touched on transitioning to a life of digital currency. Why do we feel more emotion when money leaves us when it’s cash? For example, Rob said if he’s down in the stock market it won’t really bother him. But if a gust of wind happened to blow a few hundred dollars away, he'd be tight about it.
We transitioned into talking about bedbugs and how you can spot them. Commonly bedbugs are associated with a sleazy hotel. If you ever sleep in the bed of a hotel be sure not to lay down on the bed cover. They never wash that!

Today, on the brand new first episode of Bois & Bar Talk Season 4, we are drinking Imperial Sunshine by Blue Point Brewing Co. It feels absolutely fantastic getting back to podcasting right in the beginning of summer.
Imperial Sunshine is a blonde ale brewed with orange and natural flavors out of Patchogue, NY. It pours a light amber color with a slight haze to it. The aroma is similar to an orange peel, and it’s going to have a strong scent!
Overall, we chose Imperial Sunshine because we wanted a summer-style beer. It has a 9.6% ABV which seems kind of high for a blonde ale. Although we can’t believe how the high alcohol content is masked so well. You could easily slug a few of these down on a hot summer down and it could sneak up on you fast! Not to mention, you could most likely find this beer for a bargain - we bought it for $8.99 on sale.
How We Rated Imperial Sunshine Rob’s Rating: 7.5/10 Kev’s Rating: 7.4/10We kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
During Imperial Sunshine, we kicked off the episode doing our typical rating and review of this blonde ale. We followed by doing a quick recap of the last six weeks we took off during the off-season.
Imperial Sunshine mentions that it resembles an orange tic tac. Rob thinks of orange tic tacs as a candy while Kev thought he was kinda crazy. If you got tic tacs as a candy for Halloween as a kid how would it make you feel? Afterwards, Kev talked about his superior swimming ability while Rob admitted to not being buoyant at all.
Lastly, Kev ran through the entire Harry Potter series for the first time during the off season. He gave his reaction and we talked about real-life spells that would be cool to have. Yeah, one of the spells was the ability to crack every egg in the world at once. What would that do to the economy?

Today, on the 19th episode of Bois & Bar Talk we are drinking Ice Cream Man by Backeast Brewing Company. We’ll call this part 2 since we originally had this drink during season 1 (for all you long-time listeners out there).
Ice Cream Man is an IPA brewed with citra hops out of Bloomfield, CT. It pours a nice hazy orange color similar to orange juice in a glass. The aroma is ripe and fruity meant to resemble a creamsicle, but you can also taste the sweet citrus hops off the bat.
Overall, we think it's a special drink that is still pretty limited over here in Connecticut. Anytime we see it on tap, at local bars, or on sale in the store it's delightful to see. Almost always worth a buy just to stash it at least. It holds up well when it comes to drinking again as we don’t really get sick of the flavor over time.
How we rated Ice Cream Man Rob’s Rating: 8.5/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.6/10 Ice Cream Man Show NotesWe kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
During Ice Cream Man II, we kicked off the episode doing our typical rating and review of this sweet IPA. We followed by talking about the current state of the United States and how vaccines may impact us in the future. Will we be restricted if we aren’t vaccinated? Cruise Lines are already making requirements that include a vaccination in order to board.
Kev brought up a random would you rather on the fly. Would you rather know when you are going to die or how? It’s a tough question actually uncomfortable to think about! Rob revealed that he could hardly tie his shoes, and we jumped to the astounding process of tattooing nipples. We wrap up the show with how you dry your hands in public bathrooms and then, somehow, we got to sweatpants, dick prints, and perfect position penis days! The beauty of improv is you truly never know where the show will go.

Today, on the 18th episode of Bois & Bar Talk we are drinking Guinness for the sake of St. Patricks day!
Guinness is a well-known beer, and is a staple of the world of stouts. There was really no other choice but to drink the Irish Guinness on this episode to be honest. Rob hasn't had Guinness in a long time, while Kev never had one before. It's labeled as a "Draught Stout" and pours very dark What's interesting is that Guinness has one of the smoothest sips out of any beer. The foam provides a creamy taste from the first sip.
How we Rated Guinness Rob’s Rating: 6/10 Kev’s Rating: 5.5/10 Guinness NotesWe kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.
Starting off this episode, we revealed a surprise Jameson drink guest appearance to compliment our Guinness beer. In addition to St. Patrick's day, we discussed how stimulus checks are being distributed to bank accounts across America. We mentioned how many people benefit from stimulus checks, but how many people are buying luxuries like MacBooks and PS5's? The richest companies in the world get richer when you think about it!
We dove into a conversion about all kinds of smart products. Can you imagine if your car came to pick you up at the touch of a button on your smart phone? What if your refrigerator was designed for smart capabilities. Every time you take something from your fridge, it automatically places an order to restock for delivery. We also covered smart trampolines and how we think what kind of futuristic features they would have.
Furthermore, we talked about Youtube loops that we all got stuck in. Kev recently got into alien conspiracies while Rob watches old school concerts. Either way, we both complain about how Youtube videos have way too many ads which is intrusive to your Youtube experience.

Today, on the 17th episode of Bois & Bar Talk we are drinking Rise by Whalers Brewing Company.
Rise is an APA that packs its own unique flavor from Rhode Island. It pours in a white 12 oz can, featuring the signature whale on the front. The aroma is glassy and you can taste the sweet hops behind this APA. Rise also has a pale yellow color with a foamy white head. Overall, Rise has this certain freshness to it. It has some hops, while providing hints of citrus, pine, and spice. It has a good amount of carbonation making this a very balanced beer to have.
How we rated Rise Rob’s Rating: 7/10 Kev’s Rating: 8.2/10 Rise Show NotesWe kick off the show reminding everyone to check out the website Boisandbartalk.com to check out all of our episode posts. We do show notes and ratings for every beer and every episode.

Everybody from music artists to historical figures are being cancelled over condoning toxic culture. We broke down each generation including Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. Each generation is classified by age group and we compared the tendencies of them.
Shortly after, we dug into the TikTok trend where people eat wings together and cover themselves in wing sauce. They dap each other up which makes viewers (including ourselves) unforgettable to look at. Somehow this transitioned us into talking about egging cars. Everybody thinks about how bad egging cars are, but what if somebody cracked eggs inside your gas tank? It would be super undermining. Somehow, we spend the last five minutes of the episode trying to answer the question, are there birds that are also mammals? Tune in to find out!

Today on the 16th episode of Bois & Bar Talk we are drinking Julius (Our 4th Treehouse beer this season).
The first thing we discussed was the comparison to King Julius which we did earlier in the season and what was the actual difference between the two. A source on Reddit.com made it pretty simple by just explaining that King Julius was just a double IPA version of Julius. King Julius is 8.2% while Julius is only 6.4%.
Treehouse.com describes Julius as an IPA "bursting with fresh hand selected American hops. Julius is a bright, juicy beer filled with flavors and aromas of mango, peach, passionfruit, and a melange of citrus juice. A soft, pillowy mouthfeel and rounded bitterness ensure it will never tire the palate. Loaded with immense flavors as a result of years of focused brewing application and judicious use of the freshest hand selected hops, Julius is a delicious Tree House IPA that is a true joy to drink time and time again".
The Bois couldn't get enough of it...

Following that we get into Minimum Wage and whether it should be raised or not, but also we try to keep an open mind to other solutions and not getting tunnel vision on just one. Then we go into the "College Experience". Is the experience of college worth more than the education itself?
Somehow we circled into roundabouts (no pun intended) and driving in general. Shoutout to all the safe drivers that are annoyed with the ignorant ones!
Finally the episode ends with Kev talking about the Saw movie series. He explains the worst test he has seen while rewatching all seven movies. So, you're welcome for all the nightmares!
