I’m 40% Galaxy by Local Craft Beer

Futurama is Back Baby

Futurama aired it’s first episode of “Season 12” (and I put that in quotations) on Hulu today (or Disney+ if you have the bundle). The A-plot is another Bender existentialism episode where he meets his family from Mexico, and the B-plot is a heist about stealing NFT’s.

While the idea being the NFT’s is pretty cringe and very dated at this point, the overall episode is pretty solid (as most Bender episodes are). Its not as funny as the FOX era or some of the best Comedy Central episodes, but its a decent episode, that on first viewing I felt “meh” about due to the NFT story beats, but then with a second viewing I enjoyed a bit more. Most likely falling in the 6.5 or 7/10 range for me.

Interestingly Danny Trejo voices Doblando, and I am currently reading his book – Trejo.

I’ll post more thoughts on the episode, and some references and things after the beer review.

Beer Review

I’m 40% Galaxy by Local Craft Beer (LCB)

Brewery: Local Craft Beer (LCB)
Style: Triple New England / Hazy IPA
ABV: 10%
IBU: 15
Untappd Description: More like 80% Galaxy but Bender doesn’t care as long as it’s beer!

As Bender might say, “I’m 40% Galaxy” is 100% amazing. This Triple New England IPA from Local Craft Beer (LCB) pours an inviting, hazy golden-yellow, reminiscent of a glowing sunset over New New York. Topped with a thick, creamy white head that shows impressive retention, it leaves a delicate lace that would make even the most indifferent of robots take notice.

The aroma of this beer is an olfactory feast dominated by the hallmark characteristics of Galaxy hops. Imagine Fry’s favorite Slurm drink, but transformed into an explosion of tropical fruit aromas featuring passion fruit, ripe peach, and zesty citrus. These fruity notes are complemented by subtle undertones of pine and resin, adding complexity and depth, much like the intricate plots of “Futurama.”

From the first sip, “I’m 40% Galaxy” delivers a smooth and juicy experience that would make Leela trade in her single-eye view for a taste. The tropical fruit flavors take center stage, with passion fruit, mango, and pineapple dancing on the palate like Hypnotoad’s mesmerizing performances. The sweetness from the malt is perfectly balanced by a gentle bitterness, ensuring that the beer remains refreshing and not cloying, akin to the refreshing humor that “Futurama” fans adore.

The mouthfeel of this Triple NEIPA boasts a medium to full body with a luxuriously creamy, velvety texture. The moderate carbonation provides a lively yet smooth drinking experience, much like a seamless delivery run by the Planet Express crew. Despite the high ABV, the alcohol is well-masked, making the beer dangerously easy to drink, even for a robot with Bender’s legendary tolerance.

The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of tropical fruit and a mild, resinous bitterness. There’s a subtle warmth from the alcohol, reminding you of the beer’s strength, but it remains well-integrated and pleasant. This is a beer that, like the best episodes of “Futurama,” leaves you wanting more.

“I’m 40% Galaxy” by Local Craft Beer is a stellar example of a Triple New England IPA, showcasing the beloved Galaxy hop in all its tropical glory. The balance of flavors, the creamy mouthfeel, and the masterful hiding of the high ABV make this beer a must-try for hop enthusiasts. Its complexity and depth ensure that each sip offers something new, making it a perfect subject for a detailed review. Just as “Futurama” continues to captivate with its blend of humor and heart, this beer captivates with its blend of flavors and aromas. Cheers to a beer that would make the Planet Express crew proud!

My Untappd rating: ****
Global Untappd Rating: 4.02 (as of 7.29.24)

Futurama Season 12

Futurama Season 12 picks up after the 10 episode “Season 11” aired last year (2023) on Hulu. In 2025 there will be another additional 10 episodes, and then another 10 in 2026. So, I suppose you could say – Futurama is DEFINITELY Back Baby!

Season 11 of Futurama on Hulu (and I am using Hulu’s season and episode numbering here) was…. ok. I reviewed some of the episodes (you can find the links below). I am hoping for a rebound season with Season 12, and this was a decent kick off to it.

For a list of the Futurama episodes you can view the Wikipedia article here: List of All Futurama Episodes.

A fun review of “The One Amigo” (S12: E1) by Johnny 2 Cellos:

For some fun Instagram posts (PG-13+ rated) check these out: Alana Acker. Alana Acker.

I might post some more video reviews the episodes from this season, if I do, they will most likely come out on Wednesdays or Thursdays. We’ll see. Would everyone want to see them?

Promo Still for Parasites Regained on Hulu

Week Four and Episode Four of the Not So Futurama Monday… Monday…. or Thursday…..

I have the mental image (and voice) in my head of the near opening scene of Encanto when the one guy gives Mirabelle a gift and says its the “Not Special Special Gift… Because Your Not Special”.

So this is the Not Futurama Monday – Monday – but on Thursday video review. Have no fear though – with my new work schedule they may be late – they won’t be forgotten, and I fully intend to make sure I still do video reviews of all ten episodes. You can find all of the videos here at the Futurama Episode Playlist.

Mow and Flow by Eleventh Hour

Mow and Flow by Eleventh Hour

Beer: Mow and Flow
Brewery: Eleventh Hour Brewing
Style: IPA – Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
ABV: 8%
IBU: N / A
Untappd Description: Brewed to celebrate the official Royal Couple of Wilkinsburg, we started with the King & Queen of hazy IPA hops, Citra & Mosaic. A hearty blanket of flaked oats gives this a pillowy soft mouthfeel, with a big punch of Simcoe to round out the beer. The resulting liquid has a sticky & dank aroma up front blending effortlessly with the citrus and stone fruit for a beautiful final product. It’s a great beer to celebrate Wilkinsburg and to bring attention to the efforts of these two amazing individuals.
Global Average Rating: 4.12 (as of 8.24.23)
My Untappd Rating: ****

After the video, I took the beer outside to help assist me in the hop harvest. Look for a beer review of this beautiful beer coming soon.

Promotional still from How the West was 1010001

Week Three – Episode Three

Well, this isn’t exactly a “Futurama Monday” article – though we still did cover a Futurama beer for Futurama Monday – Beer Review: Fing-longer (Turning Point Beer) – and technically I am a week behind (this week’s episode was Parasites Regained and was Season 11 Episode 4); but here is our video review of Season 11 Episode 3 – How the West was 1010001.

Theres been a lot of changes here – one, I have a new job (working at a local brewery rather than the casino) and two, I have four daughters – one of which just turned 16 and the other is nine months and just about ready to walk. So time is on a bit of a limited scale.

We are still pumping out a ton of content though, so have no fear about that. I might add (on top of doing the Futurama episode reviews) video reviews of the Ahsoka show as well. We’ll see. Premier for Ahsoka is next week (August 23rd) and they are airing two episodes at kick off.

My beer for this episode’s video review is ‘The Shining’ by Foam Brewers. I want to give a shout out to Emily for gifting me the beer. Thanks Em!

Omicron Persei 8 by Space Time Mead and Cider Works – a Metheglin style mead for our Futurama Monday.

Futurama Monday

Back for our second week of Futurama Monday. Last week Futurama premiered on Hulu, and they continued with “Season 11” Episode 2 today – Children of a Lesser Bog.

As I said previously – we will be doing a Futurama themed article each week, and later in the day I will be doing a Futurama episode recap / review on YouTube. So be sure to check out both.

Last week for our blog article I covered Futurama and Philosophy and did a book review of it. You can find that here – Book Review: Futurama and Philosophy (Edited by Courtland Lewis). Then later in the day I hopped on YouTube and did a recap / review of the episode – “Season 11 – Episode 1: The Impossible Stream” which you can catch here: Futurama Episode Review – The Impossible Stream and Mead Review: Omicron Persei 8 (SpaceTime Meadery) – you can also go straight to the video here: Season 11 – Episode 1 Review: The Impossible Stream.

On the video I did a recap / review of the episode as well as drank the Omicron Persei 8 and discussed it a bit, giving it a small, light review. I will be doing the full review in this blog post. (Later today, I will do a video recap / review of today’s episode – Season 11 – Episode 2: Children of a Lesser Bog.) I will be most likely having Allusion Brewing Company’s Star Wars themed beer – “Stay on Target”. (I won’t always be having a Futurama themed beer while doing a review, but I will try when I can.)

Futurama Monday Articles

Omicron Persei 8

Lrrr and the other Omicronians hail from Omicron Persei 8. They are a Reptilian / Lizard / Somewhat bird-ish species. For fun, I asked Chat GPT if they know about Omicron Persei 8, and here is its response:

Yes, I’m familiar with Omicron Persei 8. However, it’s worth noting that Omicron Persei 8 is a fictional planet from the animated television show “Futurama.” The show, created by Matt Groening, follows the adventures of a delivery boy named Fry who is cryogenically frozen and wakes up 1,000 years in the future.

In “Futurama,” Omicron Persei 8 is portrayed as a distant and dangerous planet, home to the Omicronians, an aggressive and warlike alien species. The Omicronians are often depicted as an exaggerated parody of science fiction tropes, and their planet serves as a recurring location in the series.

As a real astronomical object, Omicron Persei is a star system in the Perseus constellation, located approximately 1,100 light-years away from Earth. There is no known planet called Omicron Persei 8 in reality.

Chat GPT 3.5

The two Omicronians we see the most on screen is Lrrr and Nd-Nd his wife. To say they have a ‘complicated marriage’ is probably putting things mildly. Possibly my favorite episode involving the Omicronians is “Spanish Fry”.

Mead Review: Omicron Persei 8

Omicron Persei 8 by Space Time Mead and Cider Works

Beer / Mead: Omicron Persei 8
Brewery: Space Time Mead & Cider Works
Style: Mead – Metheglin
ABV: 9.3%
IBU: N / A
Untappd Description: Omicron Persei 8 has a nice hop character with almost malt like taste created by the buckwheat honey and coffee (think stout). This semi sweet mead is made with local wildflower honey, buckwheat honey, hops grown by Avery Mountain Bines & Twine, and Moka Origins Coffee. Hops and buckwheat honey added in boil. A wonderful mead when you are devouring. Lightly Carbonated. Gluten Free. Featuring art by Alexya Rauso.

Since I covered this a bit in the YouTube video, I’ll dive more into it here in the blog mead review. I suggest watching the video to get an idea of how the mead looks and how I thought it tasted on initial try. (Futurama Episode Review – The Impossible Stream and Mead Review: Omicron Persei 8.)

Appearance is very pretty, its a lovely light honey colored mead. It is transparent but with that golden orange glow. It has very good carbonation with wonderful bubbles that dance their way up to the surface.

Aroma is a honey, coffee, sweet, wild flower, with light hop note medley. This has a lot more interesting stuff going on with it than I had imagined at first pour. Taking a good nose of the mead gives you lots of different notes. The honey and hops might be muted due to the other notes of wildflower, sweetness, and coffee – or it also might be muted a bit due to age. This makes for an interesting (and nice) concoction of aromas.

Sipping on this – and its certainly a sipper, since its both a Mead, and a 9.3% ABV drink, you get the full gambit of tastes and things to notice. First taste, first impression, I get the sweet, the honey, the wildflower, with just a wee hint of coffee. Not much, and honestly without knowing the nose and reading the description, I’m not sure if I would believe its fully there. This could be an age thing, or it could be the mead itself. The hop characteristics have certainly tailed off, and I would place that a hundred percent on the age of the mead and not a thing to take umbrage with the mead itself. As you sip this you get a bit more of the medley of notes you first pick up in the nose and aroma. I get more coffee, I get more grounds and earthy notes (possibly the hops), and a lot more of the sweet, wildflower, and some of the hops fully and outright. The honey seems to sneak back in as the mead finishes up hitting you with a very sweet dosage of its potency. This was a wonderful addition to my “nerd panel” of beers and meads, to go along with all of the Star Wars RAR beers, the other Futurama themed beers I’ve had, and the numerous other Star Wars beers as well.

My Untappd Rating: ****
Global Untappd Rating: (Not Enough Reviews For a Global Rating) (as of 7.31.23)

Children of a Lesser Bog

Quick note on today’s episode – I will do a full review and recap on YouTube later, but since I have seen the episode already, I’ll jump in here and give a little bit of thoughts on it before expressing myself fully later.

I enjoyed the episode. I thought the start and the lead up to getting to the Amy / Kiff part was a bit weak (the honey stuff), and I thought some of Zapp’s lines felt forced, but generally I enjoyed the episode. I liked Kiff’s portrayal and segments, and I think it gave Amy some good character growth as well. Leela I thought was dumbed down a bit though, and not really sure my thoughts on how I feel they portrayed her in this episode.

I did enjoy the “bear biologist” and his return (he was the “whale biologist” from the original Fox run). The tardigrades was a fun inclusion, and I did like Axel, Mandy, and Lil Newt. I kinda wanted to expect more out of the idea of thousands and thousands of baby tadpoles and that there’d be more to it than just Kiff and Amy having three kids at various age stages, but I think this can work for future references and bits and segments. I was fully expecting them to do something different though.

Overall, I enjoyed the episode, and am looking forward to next week’s episode about “How the West Was 10101010101” and then the episode after that – “Parasites Regained”.

Futurama is Back Baby

As we covered in the previous two articles: Good News Everyone, Futurama is Back: Exploring Futurama – Inspired Craft Beers and Book Review: Futurama and Philosophy (Edited by Courtland Lewis) – Futurama is back, starting today with the first episode airing on Hulu streaming (July 24th, 2023).

Video Review

I did a YouTube (video) review of the first Futurama episode – Season 11 Episode 1 – The Impossible Stream. You can find that video here:

Futurama

We will be covering a weekly blog article each and every Monday for all 10 episodes of the Season 11 run on Hulu. I will also be following that up with a weekly video on YouTube giving my thoughts, opinions, and other commentaries about each episode. I will also likely be doing these reviews while having a beer and giving a quick review of the beer as well.

The first Futurama weekly blog article is a Book Review of Futurama and Philosophy, edited by Courtland Lewis.

Mead Review: Omicron Persei 8 by SpaceTime Meadery

Before we completely jump into this mead review, let’s first take a look at Omicron Persei 8.

Omicron Persei 8

From “The Infosphere” (Futurama’s version of Wikipedia or akin to Star Wars’ version of Wookiepedia), we get the following information on Omicron Persei 8:

Omicron Persei 8 is a planet situated about 1000 lightyears from Earth, in orbit around the star of Omicron Persei. The rulers of the planet are Lrrr and his wife Ndnd. Its surface seems to consist mainly of deserts. It is the home world and capital of the warlike Omicronians, the single greatest threat Earth and the entire Democratic Order of Planets are facing. It seems to have a small, asteroid-like satellite. [1ACV12] In addition to this, there are hundreds of small moons in the planet’s low orbit. [7ACV16]

In 3017, Fry travelled to Omicron Persei 8 to retrieve an artifact that would help clear the universe of hypnowaves. Lrrr, upset because he was using the artifact to steal cable channels from Earth, invaded New New York, and wouldn’t leave until President Nixon turned Fry over to him. The Omicronians were surprised that the Earthicans put up such a fight, and decided to call off their attack. However, Lrrr and Ndnd remained on Earth, along with a replica of the Omicronian Palace and several other Omicronian buildings.

……..

The Omicron Persei system contains at least 27 planets, as Omicron Persei 27 has been mentioned and the number indicates which planet in the system is being referred to, with the highest numbers being furthest from their stars. Omicron Persei 8 is neighbored by the planets Omicron Persei 7 and Omicron Persei 9 as have been referenced by Ndnd. This is a reference and a gag on the common Earth expression, and book by John Gray, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, the planets that “surround” Earth on either side of its orbit. It is merely meant to hyperbolically portray the large gap in cultural understanding between the sexes.

In “T.: The Terrestrial“, it is shown that the planet has hundreds of small moons in its low orbit. Its “third moon” is mentioned by Lrrr in “Spanish Fry“.

Omicron Persei 8 (The Infosphere)

Mead Review

Omicron Persei 8 by SpaceTime Meadery

Beer: Omicron Persei 8
Brewery: Space Time Mead & Cider Works
Style: Mead – Metheglin
ABV: 9.3%
IBU: N / A
Untappd Description: Omicron Persei 8 has a nice hop character with almost malt like taste created by the buckwheat honey and coffee (think stout). This semi sweet mead is made with local wildflower honey, buckwheat honey, hops grown by Avery Mountain Bines & Twine, and Moka Origins Coffee. Hops and buckwheat honey added in boil. A wonderful mead when you are devouring. Lightly Carbonated. Gluten Free. Featuring art by Alexya Rauso.

Not going to go too crazy in depth on this due to discussing it in the video, but this was a really lovely mead. There is a nice hop character to it, but its also a lovely dry and crispy mead. There’s a non – cloying sweetness to it deriving from the honey and wildflower that adds a very nice character to it.

We had stopped in Scranton area and stumbled upon the meadery and loved its SciFi, science, NASA, themes, and being a huge Futurama nerd I had to grab a can of this to go.

(And I am so glad I did.)

The Impossible Stream

In this video:

Futurama Episode Review – Season 11 Episode 1 – The Impossible Stream (as well as a Mead Review of Omicron Persei 8 by SpaceTime Meadery)

I give my full thoughts on Season 11’s Episode 1 – The Impossible Stream. So I will give it a proper rating here on the blog, and let you watch / listen to the video for my full thoughts.

On a score of 1 to 10 (1 being the worst, 10 being the best) I gave The Impossible Stream a 6 going to 6.5; and with benefit of the doubt I’ll stick to 6.5.

So for each future episode, I’ll keep a running tally of the season. So far:

Season 11 Episode Ratings

  • Season 11: Episode 1: The Impossible Stream – 6.5 out of 10
  • Season 11: Episode 2: Children of a Lesser Bog – (will air next week – July 31st, 2023)

I will keep this list updated and will show the next upcoming episode after. There is 10 episodes for each of the two seasons currently greenlit for Hulu. Season 11 and Season 12 are both scheduled to have 10 episodes, and all of the episode names have been announced.

Futurama – Season 11 Episode 1: The Impossible Stream

So make sure you come back each week for my video recap and reviews of each episode, as well as the accompanying blog articles.
