Backstory:
Years ago, Hertz and her friends waited patiently for the afore-mentioned Randy to join them at a Thanksgiving weekend college football game. When they realized he had decided to spend the holiday sitting on the couch and stuffing himself with his mother’s holiday turkey, their derision was merciless (as only good friends can do), with much colorcommentary offered about his preference to stay home. All agreed that “Fat Randy!” had missed out – and thus a monikerwas born that he never quite shook. It is in his honor that Holidaily’sFat Randy’s IPA is named.
