The boys return after an almost year-long hiatus to “ketchup” on the state of cervezas in the world, all while cracking a few random brews from the back of the fridge and beyond. Disc Golf and bodily fluids are discussed, of course, while sipping someSome Modern Times stouts, some random back-o-the-fridge ales - and a holiday ale brewed by Black Hole Supply Company artist and friend of the show: Dorsh Gorner.

We’re living in quite extraordinary times, and our favorite brewery, Modern Times, has released a thematically linked line of quarantine beers as their standard monthly releases have marched on in the face of revenue destroying tasting room closures. Thrillon McGillon (aka Dillon) joins us again to sip all of the May 2020 special release beers and let you know if they’re “good drinkin’ beers” or “a little too chemically.” We guzzle down Extraordinary Times Dry-Hopped Pilsner, Extraordinary Times Hazy IPA, Extraordinary Times Hazy Double IPA, and Extraordinary Times Doom Hawk with wild abandon, all while talking about the state of beer throughout the Covid-19 Pandemic, and Joey’s huge problems with Rick and Morty fandom - which is the most important aspect of this 3 hour podcast of course.

Today we’re pourin’ over the massive amount of changes in the Craft Beer industry during the fun little quarantine we’re all going through right now. Breweries are becoming drive-thrus, the rarest barrel aged “tasting room only pours” are being filled to the brim in crowlers and literally shipped to your doorstep - what has the beer world come to?! Our hearts go out to all the screwed over tasting room employees who’ve been affected by this, but our mandatory WFH tummies are filled with delicious brews that have never been easier to get. Also, we go into a FULL SPOILERCAST of Netflix’s Tiger King - the best thing to hit a world full of viral refugees who are sitting at home day drinking high-abv pastry stouts and need a distraction. The trials and tribulations of Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, one-armed trans-men, the Wal-Mart expired meat truck, Jeff Lowe, Doc Antle and more are probed DEEP into...as deep as the love between three male meth-heads could have.

Steve concocted a stupendous...and quite sticky...idea recently: to invite a bunch of people to his house and crack open some insanely rare, expensive stouts that he’s been aging in his kitchen cabinets for YEARS. They were practically falling out every time you opened one, say to get some Cheetos Puffs or some salty macadamia nuts. On top of that, he decided that he, Joey, former guest Thrillon, and friend of the show and first time guest Dorsh Gorner would be uncapping and upending his hyper rare, hyper high-value MT Ultra 3-pack from Modern Times to (and a bevy of other expensive brews) on Beer There, Drunk That for your listening pleasure! This might be the grandest Pre-Party sesh ever, as the boys go through SEVEN high ABV, high dollar stouts (including an Abnormal Pappy Van Winkle bottle or two) BEFORE Blackout Friday even started - then they cracked over 10 more!!! Were they all wasted by 6PM that night? Let’s guzzle down and find out!

After a half-year hiatus, the boys are back to recount their recent excursion vacation to Bavaria (southern Germany) for Munich’s Oktoberfest 2019! Many liters were drank, many lederhosen and dirndls were seen, and many PISS-FREAKS were witnessed...at least in the form of new improvised characters that Joey and Steve used to annoy Joey’s wife for the 12 day trip. What is Oktoberfest like for a couple of morons from southern California? What kind of brew varietals will you find there? Have they even HEARD of Hazy IPAs in Deutschland?! Let’s guzzle down and find out!

Our first podcast Inception-style crossover episode! Welcome to Closet Knowledge, our topical podcast where we come out of the knowledge closet and go deep...very deep...about something we’re both into, something a guest is into, or something one of us is into. We’re crossing over to pull our love of Beer out of the knowledge closet, with all the basic factoids to give you a pretty good baseline on what the hell beer is, what it’s made of, the difference between Lagers and Ales, Stouts and Porters, Pale Ales and India Pale ales, all that sudsy shit. Let us know what you think in the comments of your favorite podcast service, and for more content like this, join our Patreon at patreon.com/probingancientaliens, which exclusively houses bonus podcasts like Adventurous Ghosts, our Ghost Adventures podcast, and Probing Deeper, which discusses the paranormal and other content out put in the ancient aliens-verse.

What’s this? What’s this? There’s white things in the air! That’s right little skellingtons Joey recently drove up to the land of Ultimate White Stuff: Mammoth Lakes, CA for a family getaway full of blow in the snow. Of course he took a trip over to what used to be the only brewery in town - Mammoth Brewing - to grab a grip of their in-line bottles and a couple seasonal special releases to bring back to his best (suds) bud Steve to sample everything this long standing staple of post-boarding brew lovers has to offer, including Golden Trout Kolsch, Yosemite Pale Ale, Double Nut Brown, Epic IPA, IPA 395, Charley’s Revenge Olde Ale, and a few special releases. Does Mammoth Brewing Company shred the slopes as well as the locals that fill it’s bar stools every evening after the mountain shuts down? Or is it’s popularity simply due to the defacto monopoly it’s held on the entire Mammoth Craft Beer Scene for more than two decades? We give some honorable mentions to brand new rival brewery Black Doubt (soon to be Distant) Brewing as well, so it’s a bit of a double black diamond episode if we do say so ourselves! Let’s guzzle down some ice cold Mammoth Brewery beers bro

The boys have quite the treat on today’s episode - all the way from the Far East, Hong Kong specifically, are beers from Young Master Brewery - a true delicacy for some Cali surfer dudes! We pit them against a duo of brew houses from the Far East...of America: Florida, where they sip some suds from Orange Blossom Brewing Co. and Hidden Springs Ale Works! How do these southern-fried fermentations fare against the far-flung brew-jewels of the Orient? You’ll just have to gape those ear-holes and find out! Yee-haw and Nihao to you good sirs and madams!

This week the city of brotherly love is reestablished in the borough of Brooklyn, New york as Steve’s big brother Matt joins us with a handful of east coast ales to throw into our tummy pails! A recent work trip to the hipster-laden neighborhoods of B-town resulted in a suitcase full of brews that we can’t get our hands on out in the good ol’ Califor-Nai-Ay including Interboro’s Premiere Double Dry Hoppped IPA and Other Half Brewing’s Dream Layers Oat Cream IPA and Feels Like Outer Space American Imperial (AKA Triple) IPA. These tasty suds are complimented by a bevy of brews news about recent review brewery, Trillium, and their employment woes as well as diving deep into their heavy metal-filled childhoods - leading all the way up to their recent visit to the Decibel Metal & Beer fest at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, where they crushed can releases from Hoof Hearted, Wake Brewing and a handful of others as their ears guzzled sick riffs with their noses inhaling dank spliffs! Let’s guzzle down and drink in the memories of these brothers from the same mother!

Boston-born beer makers Trillium Brewing Company have been winning their fair share of awards in their five years of existence, mostly in the hop forward IPA categories but making a sweet splash with their experimental pastry stouts. The boys’ good pal Thrillon returns from his beer-trading escapades with a bevy of dark brews to sample and review on the show - a rare treat out here in sunny southern California - including their Tiramasu Imperial Stout, Coconut Pecan Pie Imperial Stout, Nanaimo Imperial Stout, and Affogato Imperial Stout. How did the boys enjoy their first sips of this sought after bastion of east coast beer excellence? How did each desserty delight fare against each other? How drunk do the boys get on air as they share 4 26 oz bottles between the three of them? You better guzzle down with them to find out ya wannabe Mass-hole!

Bootlegger's Brewery finally opened its newest location in Costa Mesa, CA and you better believe Steve and Joey skittle-skattled on over to test the new digs! How did this newest take on one of their oldest favorites compare to their Fullerton locale? Were these brand new taps pumping out the same quality Knuckle Sandwich, Rocco Red, Pumpkin Ale, Valencia Orange (and more!) that the boys were used to? Have their hazy IPA's benefited from a change of scenery or are they still lackluster gut busters? As a bonus, the guys throw in their review of Bottle Logic's Harry Potter-themed Tri-Wizard Trivia Tournament! It's the brewery's third, and the boys' second, go-around with this event, and there was an amazing assortment of exclusive beer to be had, from Butterbeer to The Grim to Paisley Cave Complex, Fundamental Observation, and their always solid New England IPAs like Roots of Muir. How did teams Patranus and Mung-dungus Feltcher fair in the contest? Guzzle down, listen, and find out!
