Understood. Assumed he was an ISU fan since people on here seemed to care what his opinion was.
It’s all an act. If any listener cares what Chris Hassel thinks, then they’re doing it wrong.

'The spirits dude in Johnston might be doing that on purpose. I remember asking him about the Cyclone Fanatic Cody Road back when that was being released, and he said, "Oh, it's Cyclones? Yeah, we probably won't get that here."
If that conversation happened need to take it up with the general manager. Hy-Vee would not be pleased with personal fandoms standing in the way of giving the customers what they want.

On the road...
Would like to see what it looks like in a glass. Should it be served with an orange slice?
Here ya go! You most definitely will not need an orange slice for this. Blood Orange, if you haven't had one, is a tart, slightly sweet orange with some floral notes rounded out with a touch of raspberry. With this beer you will get some candied orange with a hint of tart grapefruit and raspberry. I personally am not a huge fan of wheat beers, but this is incredibly refreshing.

Don’t know anyone who has said swarm is good
I was at my class reunion last summer, and a group of guys I was sitting with ordered a pitcher of Swarm, thinking it would be funny knowing I was a big Cyclone fan. I had no idea what it was, so I asked them after taking a sip and said it tasted like ****, before they confirmed it was Swarm.

Looks beautiful. Can't wait to come up to West O twice later this month. Once for the Cole Swindell concert and once for the CF Road Show event.

Finally listening to Hassel's take and it's pretty bad. He also tweeted out that he thought Bloody Mary is a gross name for a drink so we can just put his opinion in the trash here.
All wrestling fans will love the name and most people who don't know wrestling will see that it has blood orange in it and they will understand. Hassel must be one of those people who faint at the thought of blood.

Apparently he also doesn't know history either so he doesn't know who Bloody Mary was.
