Another gift to the lounge (yes all the gifts are scotch, don’t make a big stink about it we like scotch – don’t ruin this for us). Anyway this is a Speyside, and of recent memory it’s actually kind of a good Speyside. There is Talisker Storm, but that’s a uniquely well done scotch even for Talisker, not just the Speyside region.

McEwan’s Scotch Ale
McEwan’s Scotch Ale: 4.0 – So there was a scotch ale (which is a beer type I adore) that we mostly hated – called Wet Willy. Now that was actually hated simply because it was so basic and average. However this is more like Old Chub, not only is it a not good scotch ale – it’s actively bad. However take that 4 score with the mindset that even a bad scotch ale is still just a supbar beer.

Okocim Beer
Okocim : 3.0 – That is a beer I guess it’s really just a generic Pils but it has so little there that I kind of actually hate it. I will admit that the pirogi’s I had at the Polish restaurant with this were much better though.
Price Average: Okocim $7 for 4-pack

Cazadores Tequila Reposado Tequila 750mL
Here we have a tequila with a deer on it. That makes no more sense to me than it does to you friend. (Okay I mean to be fair the white tailed deer does actually live all across America from Canada to Mexico, but in a choice of those 2 countries you would take Canada every time) Any way not to spoil the review, but this is actually a tequila that we like in case you were worried considering how we’ve been bashing them lately.
Michelob Lager
Michelob Lager: 1.5 – I want to go on record as not being a huge fan of St Louis – and if their shitty well-known beer is this it’s not endearing. (I know local brews and all that, but Boston’s mark on the world is Sam Adams, and that’s quite servicable). Not to take too much time, but this is much like Heineken, a beer I don’t understand. It’s not particularly potent to make you drunk faster, and it’s not really beer-tasting. It manages to fill the space of just being bad at it’s job in both ways, and that the only reason to have this is because maybe you want to leave a bit tipsy, talk or quietly ignore the people your with at whatever bar you get this, and pee a whole lot. In short, it’s bland, weak, and terrible.
