Innis and Gunn is a fairly standard beer (the rum and other casks variants fair much better.), but it’s just a good beer, and if it’s in a bar among it’s Bud and Corona brothers – well the choice is obvious.

BreckenRidge Vanilla Porter
To be fair we were hoping for a beer/vanilla combo to be great – like vanilla coke. And other beers may get it right, but this does not.
Dogfish Head Chicory Stout
Then we come to a fairly well known (at least in New England) beer-maker and their spin on a stout, and while Shipyard’s Blue Fin Stout from beats it – it’s not bad.
Out of Bounds Stout
We decided to review some stouts at our Beercation and first up was Out of Bounds stout, and while it’s certainly not an awful stout – it’s really not worth your time to go out and try it.
Dragonslayer Imperial Stout
FUS ROH BEER! Seriously though I was in a wine store having picked up some nice wines, and the beer that we’ll review in the coming weeks, but there was a lack of stouts. Except for this one, and considering my recently acquired sword I felt like enough of a nerdbag to pick this up.
Gran Centenario Tenampa Azul Reposado Tequila 750mL
Sadly our Mexican reviewer has gone mysteriously missing (something about Immigration officers and the sex offender’s list), leaving me the Buffalo to review this tequila. I’m not sure how I feel about this since most tequila’s just bring back memories of excessive vomiting. I always thought rum was a better way to not have memories. Nonetheless we have here a very – well it’s not very anything actually – besides being very middle of the line.
Johnnie Walker Black Label Scotch 750mL
Hello we’re back to regular reviews again, this time with something related to a review we posted a few weeks ago. It’s the Johnnie Walker name, but this time to complete your drunken bruises we’ve got the black to go with the blue. While this can’t measure up to his bigger brother by any means, it’s still a very good scotch and worth my time and yours.
Weekly Wine – July 1st 2011
For this segment to happen I am going to take you all the way back to 2010. All the way back to the end of last year as this is when we actually reviewed these wines but Lee is too much of a douchenozzle to actually do anything for any segment or show we do. Due to this ineptitude, I have been tasked with writing about something I keep near and dear to my heart: vagina. Oh and wines.
Editor’s Note: Apologies for William, but also this is the first ‘Wine-Tasting’ we use for Weekly Wine; however later on we’ll have articles for wine every week since DJ_Lvl, and The Buffalo attend a local wine-tasting.
Retrospective 1 on How to Stock a Bar for $100
Hello and welcome to another special edition of Booze Reviews. This week rather than giving you a review of something new we decided to take a step back and see how far we’ve come in the past half of year. (We even managed to be mostly on schedule.) So then where has our treasure trove of knowledge left us?
