The declaration endeared him even more to Milwaukee fans, swiftly going viral online and earning widespread praise. Frelick explained on the Pardon My Take podcast that people were now offering him beers at unexpected moments, such as during breakfast the morning after the parade. He acknowledged the deep affection Wisconsinites have for beer, joking that he wouldn't need to purchase a beer in Milwaukee for the rest of his life. The team's star player, known for his love of Spotted Cow, joked about where to find all those beers in the morning. Despite his newfound celebrity, Frelick expressed his pride in being a Brewer and his determination to secure a World Championship for the fanbase.",
