Sam's back! Steve and Adam still haven't left. Big, hype IPAs and pales are back! Adam is mad. While Adam's palate is offended they all learn about the newest trend in beer, Boba Beer (which has nothing to do with Star Wars.) Also Zuckerberg cracks down on whale hunting across Facebook and Instagram, and Pittsburgh's infatuation with pickles extends to booze. While other shows go negative, this one goes positive and spends time highlighting the charitable side of beer and finally the three hosts pitch their best marketing ties for files announced at #SDCC San Diego Comic-Con

Steve and Dennis of Firstsipbrewbox.com are in the Larimer side of Pittsburgh to visit Cary, Darren and Mike the owners of Couch Brewery. They talk about the origins of the brewery, cultivating a vibe and bucking the standard fabricated, sterile brewery motif; being inviting to all people, as well as brewing for fun and camaraderie. Also, they remember old pornos and play a game of Mashed in which the brewers have to craft a beer based on a scenario and ingredient requirements. And I know you're thinking, "Hey Independence Day was a movie. I thought we doing game puns?" Well it also was a game for the PS1. You flew as fighter jets or the alien ship. It was like Ace Combat, but not.

Katie has the hook up on beers from Guam, so Steve and Adam are assisting in the drinking of Guam beers. They make fun of someone throwing a hissy fit, recap Beers of the Burgh, and drop the 411 on upcoming homebrew events. Then it's Guam facts from Adam and Katie, plus Katie's own experiences in Guam. Finally, they play a game of Is It A Beer or Is It A Band to appease the festival gods of Bonnaroo and Firefly. Bomberman Tournament is the reference title this week, because Guam rhymes with two things and there was never Calmerman 64.

Then Steve shares what he learned from Brian Sorensen's book Arkansas: An Intoxicating History and from visiting craft brewery websites. Finally it's DON'T BUY and DO BUY for Father's day beer gifts.
