  • El Segundo Brewing Company's Clasica Mexican Lager
    May 4 2025

    “Ladies and gentlemen, beer lovers far and wide… we’re back! Welcome to the grand return of The Hoppy Time Podcast— your long-lost, hop-happy haven for craft beer reviews, questionable opinions, and way too many tasting notes. It’s been a year, but we’re shaking off the dust and cracking open the first round of many more to come.

    Today, we’re easing back into the groove with a smooth, crisp refresher: Clásica Mexican Lager by El Segundo Brewing Company — handpicked by our very own Flameskid, who clearly knows how to make a comeback in style. And if that name sounds familiar, it should — we actually reviewed El Segundo way back in Season 2, Episode 14, so it’s like catching up with an old friend… who brought beer.

    So grab something cold, sit back, and join us for our long-awaited return — it’s season whatever-we’re-calling-this, and it’s starting now on The Hoppy Time Podcast!”

    Sorry for the short break but the team has been quite busy this summer. We plan on uploading a bit more consistently now that our schedules are a bit more free'd up. Enjoy this special episode with Hugo's brother Christian Alexander and how we dive in to a bit of the music world and get to understand the life of a musician while sippin' on some delicious beers from the Hermosa Brewing Company. Christian Alexander and his band Lost Paradigm will be performing live on September 23rd, 2023 at The Pour House Bar & Grill in Monrovia, California. For more details or to support the band please follow them on instagram @lost_paradigm.
