Remember that perfect summer day when everything tasted better? That's exactly what we captured in this episode when we cracked open a Blueberry Lemon Shandy from Saugatuck Brewing Company. This Michigan-made marvel transported us straight to flavor paradise with its authentic blueberry profile that had us reminiscing about childhood cereals and carefree summer days. Not too sweet, not artificial - just pure, refreshing blueberry goodness that earned our coveted perfect 10 rating.

But summer isn't always sunshine and rainbows, as we learned with our second tasting. The Rocket Pop Sour from High Wire Brewing promised nostalgic popsicle flavors but delivered something closer to melted popsicle water from the bottom of a cooler. With minimal carbonation and an identity crisis that left us questioning what makes a beer truly "sour," this disappointing 5/10 experience proved that creative concepts don't always translate to satisfying sips.

Between tastings, we swap stories about weekend golfing adventures, camping mishaps, and the peculiar behavior of aging dogs with digestive issues. Our "Ricky's Bad Choices" segment ventures into morally questionable territory with questions about sleeping in empty graves for cash and whether we'd crush children's Santa dreams for money. We also bond over our shared hatred of extended warranty phone scams and reminisce about the friend dynamics of bar-hopping in our younger days.

Whether you're seeking your next favorite summer beer or just want to hang with friends who tell it like it is, this episode delivers honest reviews, genuine laughs, and the occasional cautionary tale about what happens when your beer tastes like glue.
