Beers of the Episode
Urban Family Brewing: Raccoon-Level Dexterity (New England Hazy IPA) No real crazy notes to input on this beer since I’m catching up on these later and can’t specifically remember this beauty but if I gave it a 4.0 it must be a pretty damn solid hazy. A little on the brewery though is that it’s a small craft brewery located in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle. Never have I ever been to Seattle but one day I’d love to bury a beer or 300 over there.
(We Rated it a 4.0) It’s Untappd overall rating is (3.9)
Weldwerks Brewing: Brazilian Limeade (Fruited Sour)Sour Ale with Lime & Key Lime Puree, Vanilla, Marshmallows & Milk Sugar. Weldwerks brings the fire once again as always. I swear they never fail and it’s very rare that I even ever give them a 3.75. What a treat.
(We rated it a 4.25) It’s Untappd Overall Rating is (4.03)

Let’s chat #5 and all things Umbrella Academy. I’m honestly not the biggest Umbrella Academy person but after I found out Girard Way was the creator I had to give it a shot. It’s quite an interesting story and the show is pretty neat … Just not totally for me and I honestly can’t even tell you why. I just always fell off the wagon of watching and had to re-try very many times. Be sure to let us know what you think of the episode too. Have some Number 5 history we may have missed? Fill in the blanks in the comments so we can learn even more. Or we can just talk cool beer that you’ve had lately. We’re always on the hunt to try something new to add to our Untappd. CHEERS!
