What do pagers, Blockbuster nights, yacht rock, and craft beer have in common? Absolutely nothing… and somehow EVERYTHING on this episode of Brewsing Banter Podcast.The Legendary Brew Crew is back with another hilarious, unfiltered conversation—kicking things off with bold craft beer picks, including a barrel-aged 14% brew, a crisp rice lager, and a spotlight on Black-owned brewing excellence.But as always, the drinks are just the beginning.This episode quickly turns into a nostalgic deep dive into 90s culture, where the crew debates music history, breaks down the origins of “yacht rock,” and hilariously realizes how much they don’t know about certain legends like the Grateful Dead.From there, it’s pure throwback energy:Recording songs off the radio and dodging commercialsPager codes like “143” and early messaging cultureNextel chirps and walkie-talkie etiquetteThe rise and fall of Blockbuster VideoMapQuest directions and getting lost before GPSIt’s funny, relatable, and packed with moments that’ll have you saying, “Yo… I remember that.”If you love craft beer, real conversations, and nostalgia with zero filter—this episode is for you.Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and join the conversation.What We’re DrinkingThe Brew Crew pulled up with a lineup that definitely set the tone for the night:A barrel-aged barleywine-style lager from Elder Pine Brewing and Blending → Clocking in at a heavy 14% ABV, aged in oak and bourbon/porter barrels—this one hit more like straight liquor than beer. Smooth, bold, and not for the faint of heart.The Viking Queen Hard Seltzer from Black Viking Brewing → A refreshing 5% seltzer infused with rosewater and strawberries. Light, crisp, and a perfect contrast to the heavier pours—plus, always showing love to Black-owned breweries.The Grateful Dead Citrus Daydream Lager from Dogfish Head Craft Brewery → A 5.3% rice lager brewed with fonio, lemongrass, and lemon peel. Easy-drinking, flavorful, and definitely in that “pass me another” category.Want exclusive content, behind-the-scenes drops, and bonus episodes?
