We teamed up with Brandon from Ethereal Brewing to dive into the weirdest holiday drinking traditions from America and around the world. From New Year’s Eve and Drinksgiving to Krampusnacht, Christmas Adam, and Hanukkah’s eight days of drinking, we explore how different cultures find excuses to gather, celebrate, and pour another round.

Matt:

Here's a modern American interpretation of, uh, Hanukkah. If you are Jewish. The Hanukkah booze trend. I'm not Jewish. Okay. I'm not gonna pretend like I know.

Brandon:

We know.

Matt:

Oh, yeah,

Jason:

no shit. No shit.

Matt:

Jason:

Welcome

Matt:

Jason:

It's me.

Matt:

hold on, hold on. The

Jason:

The greatest part of. arsenic culture, Jason. Oh, I'm

Matt:

Jason, uh, juice Force. Hale.

Brandon:

Oh,

Matt:

I was gonna say something else. I forgot what it was. Um, you remember Juice Force? IPA God dude, that was like meteoric rise and meteoric fall. Like everybody was like, oh, it's so good. And then it was like, blah.

Brandon:

not, it's not around. anymore.

Matt:

It was, he is just like,

Jason:

I don't

Matt:

of it, man.

Jason:

I, I think if you drink like four. of those though during the day, it's like, man, I can't drink anymore. It's.

Brandon:

Yeah, they're 9% and they only come in fucking

Jason:

Well, but the, it's the flavor. Like, it, it gets too artificial, like after a couple of them. maybe not four, maybe three too, I don't

Matt:

And then we got Brandon. Uh, barley wine is dead Floan. I'm not gonna forgive you for not Belerephon anymore.

Jason:

I

Brandon:

I want,

Matt:

I'm gonna hold that over you. I'm gonna hold it under you like a candle. Well, I should probably stop eating as we're talking.

Jason:

You should. That's fine.

Matt:

We are recording and drinking alcohol, and I have not had breakfast and every single one of the eight beers in front of us is 10% alcohol or 16. So, uh, but welcome back. Um, what is our topic today? What are we doing? Why are we

Jason:

us baby. You tell us.

Matt:

Okay, it's holiday

Jason:

Okay.

Matt:

Okay. I'm gonna give a quick shout out to Brandon again. Happy anniversary. Uh, 11th anniversary for, um. Ethereal brewing where we are broadcasting from this room is a badass, by the way, so you all need to open this up. Um, but, uh, I'm gonna sit up here. Well, you need heat, but

Brandon:

Yeah. Well, the hvac, they craned it up onto the, you can see it's there. Uh. They crane it up onto the roof about three years ago and it's never been hooked up. so Pretty sure. it's not ever gonna work. when they

Matt:

These windows too. We probably need to put a little, uh, sock in that part right there. Maybe. The single pane glass from eight 1700 whenever this was

Jason:

it adds to the ambiance.

Brandon:

It is a cool,

Matt:

a cool, it really does, dude. This is actually a, a dope pass room. So, uh, thank you for having us back

Jason:

Before we get going too much though, make sure to like and subscribe on YouTube if you've Not already, so you can not miss any of our upcoming episodes. And this one,

Matt:

Yeah. Now you had nothing to

Jason:

Working it in? No, I'm good now.

Matt:

You can just, just be quiet for the rest of the episode. Um, but it is, it is the holiday season and um, this is, drinking is down across the world and a lot of people are drinking like non all alcoholic stuff, low a BV stuff. That's fine if you're a pansy, but you know what? Real human beings like to drink alcohol and there are a lot of people that still do, and there are a lot of excuses to do it, and I thought it'd be fun. This will be a quick episode. If you're looking for an excuse to get together and have fun with your friends or Debaros family, these are a list of events that go along, go on around the world, uh, where people get together for stupid reasons so that way they can drink alcohol. And I'm gonna start out with one, actually, I'm not heard of almost any of these, with the exception of some obvious ones. Okay. Um, did you know on Black Friday some of these have already passed? I'm gonna start with those. Did you know on Black Friday there is a tailgate culture? No,

Jason:

No

Matt:

people will go. Yeah. Um, it's like you stand in line. Wait for Walmart to drop that deal for, uh, their how home brand, which is like on with two ends. For a 30 inch TV that's like $15 off or

Jason:

inch tv. Yeah.

Matt:

And then people just line up all around the building. Well, there is a culture where people have started coordinating, um, essentially like bottle shares in line to where you just bring a bunch of alcohol and, and, uh, some businesses, uh, have quote unquote like doorbuster, mimosas and shit like that, where they're like, yeah, where they'll like serve you, which

Jason:

I'm in for

Matt:

very responsible, but I guess it depends on what you're standing in line for.

Brandon:

sounds like it's gonna get violent when the doors. do finally open. You know,

Matt:

They already do is the thing, you know, I mean, they don't anymore because the, uh, way online is kind of superseded like retail shopping.

Jason:

Well, Speaking of that, so I saw this last night, uh, So Target had this door buster thing. The first 100 people to get there, got a target bag, a Special bag like holographic looking. With a swag inside. So here's what happened.

Matt:

gonna be a stuffed animal or

Jason:

The swag inside was like a bag of nerds. A little bag of nerds. Some like, some like, uh, Lens cleaners, like just some things thrown in there.

Brandon:

just random

Jason:

Random Shit. that People were so bad, like talking to the manager, Karens out there going crazy. I'm

Matt:

bought 'em off of Alibaba in bulk. They had like 8

Jason:

there was like nine items in this bag. They're like, what the hell is this? Like,

Brandon:

an Amazon surprise box you buy for like five bucks or whatever the hell

Matt:

they're all return items. That's

Brandon:

wet for some reason. Like, what the fuck?

Jason:

mildew smell like, I dunno, could have been a dog. Got

Matt:

is new? Yeah. Um, but this started in the late, uh, 1990s, early two thousands, back when Black Friday became a thing. Um, I'm surprised it's still being done now. I kind of would be interested to see what the metrics are on

Brandon:

that. or like where in America this

Matt:

I will say this. So we visited my family in Tennessee for Thanksgiving.

Jason:

Mm-hmm.

Matt:

And we drove back on Black Friday. We drive through Corbin, Kentucky. You ever been there? There's not a lot in Corbin, Kentucky. You know what they do have? They have a big old Walmart and the highway that goes through Corbin. Traffic was lined back a mile and a half approximately of cars waiting to get into Walmart, and we were in the right lane just passing and we're

Jason:

there's no chance of me beating that

Matt:

No. And then we finally passed it and we could see Walmart's, you know how big Walmart parking lots are? Their parking lot was full. I've never seen a full Walmart parking lot before. And they had, uh, multiple, uh, security cars patrolling the parking lot for like criminal activity and stuff, or

Brandon:

the fuck? absolutely

Matt:

insane. But it goes to show that people are still doing this, like

Brandon:

in Corman, Kentucky.

Matt:

yeah. To, to the chagrin of a lot of civilized human beings out there. People are still

Jason:

I get that soap Quarter off. baby.

Matt:

Yeah. And it's always something like absolutely asinine. But, uh, anyways, um, yeah, people, let's see. It's most common in Midwest and southern states, which we are considered a southern state for people that like to tailgate when you go to football games and stuff. So, I mean, I

Brandon:

That makes sense. Yeah, There's already like an a well Established tailgating

Matt:

Like rural places

Jason:

it's like bottle releases too. So some of the distilleries do. Heaven Hill does, I think like twice a week, Tuesday or Wednesday, and then Saturdays.

Brandon:

Saturday.

Matt:

Yeah.

Jason:

So they'll do that. and people will line up camp out for it. and they'll be sharing bottles out there. of course. So,

Matt:

Um, this is the biggest one everybody knows. This is just New Year's Eve going out and partying. Um, it's pretty obvious I had to put it on here though. Uh, this apparently dates celebrating New Year's Eve dates back to Mesopotamia around 2000. BCE. Just imagine a bunch of people in Mesopotamia making. That's when beer first started too, I think. Or maybe it

Brandon:

that's supposed to be The birthplace of

Matt:

Yeah, but they're wearing like little conical party hats and little like, like, like horns that they're blowing out of and stuff like that. Uh, but yeah, even back then, like alcohol became the centerpiece of like partying before like the turn of the new year. So, um, it is the world's largest synchronized drinking event for obvious reason. Um,

Brandon:

Or

Jason:

at midnight or whatever.

Matt:

yep, exactly right. Uh, champagne consumption in, in, uh, on New Year's Eve is. Amounts to about 360 plus million glasses worldwide.

Brandon:

It's gotta be

Matt:

de

Brandon:

Like the more the more champagne is probably consumed that day than, any than like The rest of the year. combined.

Jason:

I would agree. The most champagne that I ever consumed is mimosas, like a brunch or

Matt:

honestly, yeah. Um, actually, the last time I had champagne was with you over the Boyd.

Brandon:

Oh, yeah. Was it the method of

Matt:

Yeah. Or, or were you, you were there. That was Justin

Brandon:

That was Justin

Matt:

Yeah.

Jason:

it off. Yeah.

Matt:

Yeah, and we were trying to savor that bottle and then almost slit my wrist. Yeah,

Brandon:

Well, by the way, we just came back out with it and it is

Jason:

Nice,

Matt:

Really.

Jason:

Okay. Okay.

Matt:

Okay. Then we will do our next broadcast over there.

Brandon:

Try again.

Matt:

Yeah. Uh,

Jason:

take the cork off. This time we learn, we learn the cage. the

Brandon:

Yeah,

Jason:

K job. I tried to tell Matt, I tried to tell Matt that cage

Matt:

Oh, this is, this is where I do the rewind from that episode Flash. Don't you take the cage off. Are you supposed to take the cage off? No, I'm just, I'm gonna go with it. Don't you take the cage off. Off. I'm gonna go with it. I'm gonna go with it. I'm gonna go with it. Oh eight attempts later. But emergency rooms report a near doubling of alcohol related visits between

8:00 PM and 3:

00 AM on New Year's Eve. Yeah. Which again makes, uh, makes a lot of sense. Um, this one, this is where it gets into the fun ones. A lot of these I've never heard of. Um, we talked about it just a second ago. You ever heard of drinks Giving? Yes.

Brandon:

Yep. Yeah. Um,

Matt:

you said no.

Brandon:

Well, have participated in it. I didn't know there was a specific name for it.

Matt:

it makes sense once you talk

Brandon:

What you're talking

Matt:

right? Um, it's called Drinks Giving or Blackout Wednesday. I had never heard of this before, but the thing is my family is really conservative as in, um, on my dad's side. Super, uh, strict Christian, don't touch anything that has sub any sort sort of substance, especially alcohol. But yeah, everybody gets together the night before Thanksgiving, which is a Wednesday and. You see cousins you haven't seen in a year or like second cousins or uncles or whatever. And then it's just like, oh, hey, how are things? Maybe classmates, you know, you went to school with from your hometown. You're like, oh my gosh, what have you been up to? Especially when you go out with your cousins that you haven't seen in a year. And then it ends up just becoming like this huge party in wherever your hometown is and everybody gets blackout drunk on accident.'cause you just go out for a couple drinks, you know? Uh, but then you just like compare all like stories and stuff like that. It is, um, it's, the name started as early as 2007, but it goes back into the eighties. Uh, I was looking for a stat here. Sun bars see 200 to 300% increase in shot sales compared to a normal in industry. Uh, uh, data and police departments across the us uh, issue warnings every single year because it is like bars just dreaded and everybody just gets absolutely

Brandon:

I'm surprised it only goes back to the eighties.

Matt:

Yeah.

Brandon:

and not just back to, I don't know,

Matt:

should have just been a thing. Yeah. Since Thanksgiving was invented.

Jason:

you think people would've had More time off, back before then. You know what I mean, Had like that Wednesday and Thursday, Friday off. Now if you're working, I mean, it's hard to get those days off. You know everybody.

Brandon:

you do know that you're gonna have Thanksgiving off, so you're probably. gonna go pretty damn

Jason:

right. That's right.

Brandon:

right. Wednesday night, because you're like, I got a free hangover. day.

Matt:

Yep. And then every, yeah,

Jason:

then Hangover Thanksgiving dinner hits, hits better. Yeah,

Matt:

exactly right. Yeah. And it is uniquely an American holiday too, so

Brandon:

sure. Didn't, didn't originate Mesopotamia.

Matt:

No, it didn't,

Jason:

You know what else is uniquely American. Bourbon.

Matt:

yeah. Bourbon is, and never say die is half American.

Brandon:

Uh,

Matt:

it is partially aged at sea and shipped off to, uh, England as it ages on a boat, which is really cool. And I'm pretty sure one of those boats contained pilgrims at some

Jason:

Oh yeah, for sure.

Matt:

uh, founded our nation.

Jason:

Also pirates

Matt:

and, uh, pirates and probably ninjas. Um, that's actually what never say die

Jason:

I think I saw that movie when that in high school, ninja versus pirate. or something like that.

Matt:

It's a never die is an old, uh, ninja adage.

Jason:

Al was in it. It's, it's ninja. Never

Matt:

ninjas. Never say die. Steven Psych.

Brandon:

Jesus Christ,

Matt:

Imagine Stevens just walking

Jason:

He just does that.

Matt:

up and people like

Brandon:

Oh dude, Yeah. Bullshit. Shit.

Matt:

350 pounds

Jason:

touches you.

Matt:

yeah. So, uh, but uh, check out. Never say die at a liquor store. You the good stuff. Uh, we appreciate those guys. Um, this is fun. Uh, apparently there is a thing called SantaCon Weekend,

Jason:

Ooh.

Matt:

and there are in bigger cities. Uh, it originated in San Francisco, which is a big city in 1994, and it was inspired by a Danish Street theater group and it spread all the way to New York City in 98. Um, that's fast. Yeah.

Brandon:

like across

Jason:

Very, very

Brandon:

Especially with the, the sub, you know, before The internet. Like that's kind of, that's kind of wild.

Matt:

And I'm guessing it's primarily

Jason:

Dead, their tour,

Matt:

Grateful Dead. Uh, I'm guessing it's primarily in San Francisco and New York City, but I, I saw mention to where it's in some other bigger

Jason:

I know, I, I remember like used to, we go like pubs and stuff or bars, whatever, like the Santa Santa pub Crawl. You ever see

Matt:

So this

Jason:

don't know what time of year that was? but I

Matt:

That's, this is what that is. Okay. But on a huge scale. And apparently like thousands of people dress up at Santa and they just bombarded all these

Jason:

we were in Memphis one time, uh, my wife and and cousin were actually running like a half marathon or something. Shockly. I wasn't running.

Matt:

Oh. I was like,

Jason:

no. Hell no. I, I was drinking. I was drinking.

Matt:

can, this be a spinoff episode of you running a half marathon? That'd be great.

Jason:

It'd be a Long episode.

Matt:

He is running with like a logger in each hand, like trying not to spill it. Yeah.

Brandon:

and

Jason:

Yeah.

Matt:

No, that's awesome

Jason:

gimme a little back. Right on. I remember, I remember being in Memphis and like where it went to the bars after the race just hanging out and I've never seen so many Santas, like everybody, like the doors open. Everybody's just coming in. I don't Where the hell did you come from? And all they do is just go bar to bar to bar and they're hammered by the

Matt:

Yeah. So that's the thing is you dress up as Santa Hat, you get absolutely blasted, and then you get arrested.

Jason:

Yeah.

Brandon:

I feel like some some bad shit happens. Especially when carrying around a Big S.

Jason:

S. Oh yeah.

Brandon:

You know, Whatever.

Matt:

Oh Yeah. Yeah. Who knows what he is like, yeah. Gifts. No, this is Oxycontin and uh, and heroin. Yeah. Have you been a good boy?

Jason:

We, we took a dark turn right there. Yeah.

Matt:

be like, I'm about to be the best boy, actually. I'm gonna be the worst boy. So, um, but that was really cool. I've never heard of, uh, doing a Santa bar call in like these big cities where they're just like absolutely blasted. This is a crazy one. This is called Christmas Adam. Was what?

Jason:

Christmas. What? Adam? Adam,

Matt:

Adam. You ever heard of Adam? He's the first

Jason:

Oh, I know him. Yeah. Yeah.

Brandon:

Yeah. He banged Eve and then all of his children.

Matt:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, so this was, I guess it was a millennial, gen Z kind of thing. And it started in the late 2000 aughts. Um, I read somewhere

Jason:

like last year

Matt:

the idea. I know, right? Yeah. That

Brandon:

This happened yesterday, so

Jason:

Mad. Just made this shit up right before we started.

Matt:

December 23rd

Jason:

and. it's Christmas ev, right? Truth

Matt:

I don't know how much truth there is to this, but I read somewhere it said, they call it Christmas Adam, because, uh, Adam came first when

Brandon:

Oh God, where's this

Matt:

I don't know. So it is just like you do Christmas, Adam, would you celebrate that first and then you do Christmas after that?

Jason:

the views that Matt expresses are not the views of arsenic culture. Just, I don't, I don't know. I'm I'm just I dunno where we're going. I'm

Matt:

repeating what I read. I'm not saying this is, uh, this is kosher. I'm not saying that this is, uh, gospel, but um, this is what I read. So, but, uh, apparently it's like a Friendsgiving kind of thing, like, uh, the last day to get together with just a bunch of heathens, like Jason and you and, and then we all just have a bunch of drinks and stuff before you get together with your traditional family. But apparently this is like a, this is like a big thing now.

Jason:

say it's Similar to that day before Thanksgiving Right. You're back in town. You got a little

Matt:

Yeah, I would say. I would say so. Yeah.

Brandon:

more, I think more people come in town for Christmas than they do Thanksgiving, so

Matt:

Yeah. I agree.

Brandon:

probably Catching up with a bunch of high school buddies. and shit like that.

Matt:

Yeah. Yeah.

Jason:

then Also, it's like, you know, it's Christmas Eve, you, she ain't got much to do the next day. so, you know, kind of hanging

Matt:

But thematically, again, it's like people get together and maybe they'll do like a bourbon share or like a bottle share with beer and stuff like that. It's cool to see those kind of traditions still going on. People still do bourbon chairs and stuff like that, but Christmas Adam is a thing and if that's how it started then, uh, please don't shoot me for that. I didn't make it up.

Brandon:

I mean, that's what I mean, to be honest, That's, I think that's what is, what is wonderful about alcohol is that it is, it is, a social beverage. It is meant to be consumed. amongst friends, You know, with friends it's to elevate, your, you know, facilitate conversation. You know, conversation. and like, just, it makes things so much easier, especially after you have like one, you know? it could be, It could be a little awkward. I haven't seen it in a few years, but, you know. like, Hey, cheers, and then

Matt:

I'm just gonna take that snippet of you saying alcohol is wonderful and I'm just gonna isolate it and like not put anything like,

Brandon:

Make a remix

Matt:

alcohol is wonderful. Yeah. And then I'm gonna put these eight glasses in front of you that are all halfway empty.

Brandon:

and then send it to My family.

Matt:

yeah. Um, here's a modern American interpretation of, uh, Hanukkah. If you are Jewish, the Hanukkah boo trend. Where there's like, um, I'm not Jewish. Okay. I'm not gonna pretend like I know

Brandon:

we know

Matt:

Oh yeah.

Jason:

shit. No shit.

Matt:

What gave it away. But, um, I guess there's like, they do, they do gifts for like eight nights or 12 nights or 36 nights or something like that. Right? So there is like this new trend and it is with like the younger generation where they do booze themes for eight nights in a row. So it's like, it might be vodka one night, bourbon, another night gin, you're doing schnapps, or something like

Jason:

Ugh. It

Matt:

It

Brandon:

sounds like just perpetual.

Jason:

That's not good.

Brandon:

Just snowballing. Yeah.

Matt:

Yeah. Uh, some of the other ones I saw in here that they, that do thematically.

Jason:

might be my worst, like drinking it straight. I, I enjoy serving like a cocktail.

Brandon:

should be a co. It's a cocktail. beverage. I don't know. Anybody drinks Gin Stray. They're a

Jason:

I, I've tried it. I've tried it. Yeah. I would never,

Brandon:

it's so just hot. and spicy.

Jason:

Yeah, yeah,

Matt:

Yeah. I can't do that. Um, but they do, uh, sometimes they'll do thematically, they'll do Israeli spirits or Iraq, which I've wanted to do an episode on that. That is an interesting.

Jason:

be pretty

Matt:

Spirit. Um, you don't even know what it

Jason:

No, no. I like to try. I I think we've had some Israel something from there. We had, uh, I think Jeff back in the day brought something on,

Matt:

Maybe

Jason:

I don't remember what it was. Maybe it's a Wine or something, but I, I, could be wrong. Um,

Matt:

Um, they'll do honey Le cos they'll do gelt. I think that's how you pronou. GELT. Well it says chocolate cock gel chocolate cocktails. That was harder to say than she. Yeah, you sound Jewish now all of a sudden. Uh, and then jelly donut

Jason:

We're gonna let, we're gonna let you actually, eat

Brandon:

Ooh, the jelly donut Yeah, that's totally a Jewish thing. Like

Matt:

This is, I don't know what this word is, SIA.

Jason:

Soup. Soup.

Matt:

It's S-U-F-G-A-N-I-Y-O-T. How do you

Brandon:

We should, we should. probably try and listen to Google translate these for us before we try and pronounce 'em ourselves. Yeah. I

Matt:

had

Jason:

that cheered up on my phone.

Matt:

Ready to go? Yeah. Uh, but this is very much, I think a younger, younger person thing. Um, there are some bars now that will run full Hanukkah cocktail menus with. Eight completely different drinks to like try for like different, like themes and stuff like that. Yeah. And this last one is my favorite. If you guys haven't figured out a, uh, cocktail themed or booze themed soiree for, uh, you and your friends, this is the one to do. It's called CRE is,

Brandon:

De

Matt:

and

Jason:

Just rolls off the tongue, you know? Yeah.

Matt:

Uh, but it's like Krampus night. And apparently, uh, this is rooted in Alpine, pagan traditions, predating Christianity. First references were in the 16th century, um, but it exploded in the early two thousands, but everybody dresses up as you know what Krampus is. Yeah. You know what Krampus?

Brandon:

Alp Alps, like demon. that

Matt:

Like huge horns. Did you ever see the movie

Jason:

Did you ever see the movie? Oh, I have. Yeah. It's a good

Matt:

such a good movie. It's a horror movie. Yeah. Everybody dresses up as like Krampus or some variation of Krampus. They just dress up as demons and they just run around the streets and drink schnapps.

Jason:

That's how you get

Matt:

How cool is that? I know. Yeah. I mean, you could probably do this in Denmark and get away

Brandon:

happen in America, I tell you that

Jason:

you, come to my

Matt:

do it on Manchester Street and you're gonna have a lot of police over here real quick. Yeah. Uh, but this has been around, not since Mesopotamia, but like for hundreds of years. Um, some of these cramp suits, they're like made out of wood,

Brandon:

dude. There's people who, I, people who make those krampus suits. I mean, Some of those are like, so extravagant and amazing, Like scary.

Jason:

I need to look that up. I'm not seeing

Matt:

It says some of them can like cost between a thousand and $3,000. Um, schnapps consumption spiked so much on December 5th that many towns will double their police patrols. Uh, just because there's so many drunk people walking around looking like

Brandon:

kns are Like super sweet too though. So like, I feel like you just feel like ass the next day. if you Just

Jason:

Oh oh,

Matt:

yeah, yeah. I get that Sugary

Brandon:

in a cramp rage. all night. And me, so,

Matt:

call the law and just have 'em on standby, you

Jason:

Nu number one would be peppermint. I bet. peppermint? they're taking shots of that. Nothing. You're not gonna take a shot
