Summer is slipping away faster than an ice-cold beer on a hot day, and Rick and Princess are here to remind you to savor every moment with another round of honest brew reviews and belly laughs.

After Rick's solo episode last week, Princess returns to the recording studio ready to explore two vastly different brewing styles. First up is Little Fish Brewing Company's Cleft – a barrel-aged peach sour that comes with high expectations but delivers what the hosts can only describe as "rotten peaches" and "licking a battery." Their expressions upon first taste are worth the price of admission alone, though they admirably power through to award it a respectable 5.5/10 as it improves slightly with each sip.

The mood shifts dramatically when they crack open Black Horse Brewery's IPA from Tennessee. This perfectly balanced hop experience with subtle citrus notes and zero lingering bitterness earns a rare perfect 10 rating and the coveted "Princess Approved" designation for IPA lovers. As Rick notes, "The notes are all there, they combine well, it's just a good flavor" – making this a "trust me beer" worth seeking out.

Between sips, the conversation flows naturally through recent events including Rick's son's wedding, an impressive golf outing where they scored a 42, and upcoming camping adventures. Their easy rapport shines through off-color jokes originally prepared for their absent "Beer Wench" and playful banter about everything from golf course holes to workplace characters.

As their busy summer schedules force a three-week podcast hiatus, Rick and Princess leave listeners with a reminder that summer's fleeting nature is itself "another reason to drink" – so grab something cold (preferably not one that tastes like a battery) and make the most of it while you can.
