this video with some nomad internet link below we are at a famous kansas city brewery today
there we go guys boulevard brewing company here in kansas city and this is the tours
and recreation building well kc logo there too we gotta go check in for our tour thank goodness for
air conditioning we're gonna check this area out later there's also a gift shop over there
on the way out but uh over here is where the tour starts by the flashing arrow right there i don't
know how far they uh send a boulevard brewing beer don't don't know if it's where you are right now
but it's the local here i bet they ship all over the country all right we're outside on the tour
he did ask us not to film them so i don't know what i'm going to be sharing with you exactly
but we're going to go on this tour and i'll stop and let you know anything i learned
look at the size of these tanks i think we're going over the tap room first
i don't know one of one of the brew houses here ah air conditioning cool cool cool all right
we're gonna we're gonna start with grabbing a beer here heck yeah all right let's try it
it's tasty it's tasty yeah so this is the original brew house that we just learned about
in here again he doesn't want me to film him talking so uh we learned about the pale ale
that we just drank being the original that was uh brewed right here 100 years ago and then
their very first shipment was sent over on the back of a pickup truck in a keg it sold out
three hours and then they had to order more and hence that's how boulevard brewing paleo started
then we can come back in here after the tour get some more try all those you know
and now we're going into brew house 2 established 2006. oh look at the barrels
all right we're going upstairs oh nice
so this is their newer bar up there and look more beer all right
there's the pale malt and there's the barley hops we gotta move into the next room but here's some
of their their newer tanks here and we were just drinking space camper yeah the space camper's only
been around for three years here at boulevard and i really liked it the pale ale was the first one
this one was the ipa and i really liked that ipa cool well he just taught us about the fermentation
process there's a good shot of downtown kansas city out there on a warm warm day out here and
while they were doing the tour the smokestack i wish she had smell-o-vision because it smells
great and it's also cool that they were able to expand the property here over the years i just
don't think i've ever tried a boulevard beer until today and i really like it especially that that
space camper i'll get a better shot of it by the way but there's the space camper logo oh cool now
we're going to learn about the bottling room here i'm going to let him talk i'll get back to you
all right so we just learned about the bottling the can stuff is over there but the bottles
and stuff and their distribution goes to 47 states and washington state is one of them
i just don't remember seeing it in any of the stores i've been to so i'll keep an eye out now
and one other funny thing to maintain 12 ounces because they have to be exactly 12.0 ounces
anything that's over or under is available to the employees down there on the floor
i think i need to work here all right the tour is basically over we're going to go back to our
starting point and our little id cards these are our beer coupons if we want to try something else
all right after this we'll go check out the gift store they have one more
uh variation of the space camper it's the star haze space camper
it's a really yummy ipa it's really yummy all right verdict is out on the star haze
camera good stuff it's good it's good now i'm gonna dry the
golden amber which is like a fancy bud light version
yeah although it's good and tasty it's not as good
all right good stuff and of course just like disney you exit through the gift shop
of course of course there are lots of magnets to choose from lots but look they have a space camper
cosmic ipa magnet rubber magnet which i love i like to get two though because they got stickers
yeah they had a lot so yeah they also have this one which is a magnet plus a beer opener that
says boulevard or maybe i should just go with the one i don't know okay wait a minute they
have a mix pack a little party pack the giga hop along with cosmic ipa and delta ray and there's
nebulous ipa alpha vapor too interesting well that was a fun little tour out there
glad i got to know a little bit more about a local uh brew house here and uh boy tell you
what i'm not gonna complain about this heat because there's so much sunshine that's like
i feel like we're off to a really good start here in on this trip here in missouri and this
is actually my last night in missouri after after this we're going to be picking which state we're
going to choose to go west as we continue to head towards the pacific ocean but um yeah this is my
last night here so i want to do a couple things um i had an interesting afternoon here with
opie i'm gonna share that part with you first all right first of all hope he's doing okay
he's nice and dry now mostly he's got some wet spots still on the bottom of his fur um you know
jax was a short-haired cat tara is a short-haired cat opie is medium to medium long hair
and um as far as grooming i i do pet him with his little brush like i brush him and comb him from
time to time but this morning something happened in the litter box opie had a as robert calls it
a dingleberry issue and um he had some matting issues going on with his behind back here
and um i caught it in time he he started to kind of drag his butt to fix the problem
and then i picked him up and saw what was going on
and sorry this is a gross story it was so bad that um opie got his first bath ever
not only did he get his first bath but i had to take the motorcycle over to petsmart
um and get some pet clippers these are these are pet specific clippers i didn't want to use
my clippers obviously um on my kitty because this is now something that opie and i need to address
at least on on a monthly basis um to keep him from having issues again like that um he needs his bum
trimmed behind his tail here which i'm gonna spare you looking at a shaved bum
we put a number two clip attachment in there and um it's it's gonna it's just gonna keep things
cleaner boy your fur is really soft now opie it's so soft are you doing okay that was pretty
traumatizing huh yeah you go to poop and the poop just follows you right out huh gross eric really
so many people are going to unsubscribe right now so so yeah i am now an official butt trimmer
the things we do for our our pets that we love opie i'm just doing my part to make your life
better okay i'm just i'm just doing it to help you okay all right man he had a he had
a rough afternoon though he did i'm sorry hopey everything's gonna be okay now okay
all right buddy how's tara doing there's my terra bear that's daddy's sweet angel how are
you peeking out the window there yeah we staying cool in here all right girl i was just sitting
down to edit some video and i tried the the the delta ray one there from the variety pack
um i didn't actually think that it was gonna fit in my saddlebags but that 12-pack fit in
my saddlebags all the way here and then we put a couple in the freezer to try them out so anyways
i'll get back to here in a little bit i gotta pack up a few things and also i'm gonna need to get
robert's help to get the trailer back out of the grass in case it sunk a little bit to reconnect
i'm hoping i'm really really hoping that for the future there will be very few times where
i actually have to unhook that motorcycle trailer i would say like once every 30 days i'm gonna have
to unhook it even the campgrounds that i'm at most of those sites are 40 foot i had no
problem parking miranda back into them with the smart car in front right now bumper to bumper
with the trailer i'm sitting at wait a minute 36 feet 36 feet without disconnecting the trailer
however are you still gonna have room to lower the ramp to get the bike out and that's just gonna
be something then again i'm not going to a lot of paid campgrounds anymore i will be utilizing them
at least once a week probably to empty my tanks get water maybe do laundry or something like that
but mostly we're gonna be boondocking anyway so i won't ever have to really disconnect the trailer
like this it's just it's nice fitting here and being close to a power cord where i could plug in
for these record-breaking hot may days in kansas city do you have any viewers from the kansas city
area here this is some crazy hot weather huh maybe it's passed by the time this gets uploaded but
i'm ready for summer and hoping to not see any more temperatures
in this range goodness so we got this big blank metal canvas of no magnets for this trip yet
and uh until right now there's our first official magnet of the trip from missouri
heck yeah i got all the the green lights going on in here and the green machine
i also don't keep them on all night it's just for fun to start then i love the wheel wells
that is such a cool little add-on piece there with the wheel wheels there
so anyway kind of going to be tightening things up tomorrow and getting back on the road
i still have to decide kansas or nebraska still have to decide and i have not decided yet
