  Episode 175: Allagash 'Tripel' and River Roots 'Ryeclops'

  Feb 22, 20261h 10m

  Sleep training kids and the male cold can be two challenging things to be doing while trying to be micro-influencers. This week we get back at it with some high octane drinks. David has the Belgian offering of "Tripel" from Allagash. A good hearty 9% for those looking for a good bang for their buck. Rye whiskey isn't preferred but when you get the 12.5 year Ryeclops from River Roots, it may change your mind. Gary approves. Tell a friend about us, won't ya? Hosted on Acast.
