Samuel Adams Boston Brick Red
Boston Brick Red: 5.0 – Just a little too average of a beer. Kind of sad really since you know Sam can sometimes make really good beers.
Google Shop Average: Boston Brick Red $4

Avery The Czar Imperial Russian Imperial Stout
Avery The Czar: 7.0 – Really good, and there’s a lot of power behind it (apparently also in AbV) Good amount of chocolate flavor as well.
Google Shop Average: Avery The Czar $9

El Zarco Silver Tequila 750mL
Another Silver tequila that I’ve picked up in lieu of a party (why my friend can’t handle other tequilas is beyond me). This one is a bit interesting because it’s a much more value price. It also is not sickengly sweet or downright awful – in fact the only real complaint about this is the Eurotrash look and feel.
North Coast Brewing Company La Merle Saison
La Merle Saison: 6.5 – Apparently this is named after a bird according to hipster bar person. Some citrus and fruity flavoring, and an overall tasty saison.
Google Shop Average: La Merle Saison $8

Wicked Pissa SPF 0
Wicked Pissa SPF 0: 6.5 – A really good golden ale with a lot of flavor.
Google Shop Average: Wicked Pissa SPF 0 $7

Balinoff Vodka 750mL
This vodka angers me, and if you want to know why it’s because this vodka is basically France making a lie. And there are two things I hate: liars, and light beer – which is water that’s lying about being beer. No I’m not saying that France can’t make a good vodka – hell with all the brandy and sacred water they go on about – it should work out fine.
Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale
Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale: 4.5 – So everyone (mostly west-coast) practically jizzes about Stone, and I’m not having it. Add that to a beer saying that I won’t like it because it’s strong and I prefer my Miller and Bud Lites and this beer can go fuck itself. Actually reading the text on the back and I’ll give them that their beer isn’t an arrogant bastard, but they sure are. At the end of the day though I’m here to review beer and this is simply nothing special, and the taste is just an unhoppy balance.
