Kenzinger Pale Lager
Kenzinger: 5.5 – A good pale lager, needs a bit more to the taste though.
Price Average: $4

Wicked Weed Brewing ‘Devilwood’ Ale
‘Devilwood’ American Wild Ale: 1.5 – This says it’s a bourbon barrel aged Belgian style ale. Those may all be true words, but let it be said that just because your style of beer takes 5 minutes to say doesn’t mean we can’t sum up a review in a single word – Disgusting.
Price Average: $9 for half-bottle

Sagamore Spirit Rye American Whiskey 750mL
Well, folks, we’re not going to lie to you. The next few weeks around here are going to have a prevailing theme, and that theme is Whiskey. Due to the site updates changing the typical review seeking, and because we are prepping some special December goodness the old fallback of whiskey dominated reviews reigns again. We have at least been kind to break it up instead of being scotch every week, which leads us here.
Smuttynose Really Old Brown Dog (Julio’s BBA W/ Cinnamon And Vanilla)
Smutty Julio’s: 6.0 –It certainly feels like a bourbon barrel aged ale. While the combo of the vanilla and cinnamon are thankfully very present, and they’ve successfully not made it sickeningly sweet – it’s still not greatness.
Price Average: $?? – possibly not available

Tavern on the Green Oktoberfest
Tavern on the Green Oktoberfest: 4.5 – It finishes the majority of taste rather quickly but leaves something wrong for a long while afterwards. There’s spice and it has markings of a slighty too much fall spiced octoberfest, but its simply subpar.
Price Average: $9

Mount Gay Eclipse Barbados Rum 750mL
So we are a serious no-nonsense review site. With that in mind, we will use the remainder of this tiny space before the fold to air some things about this rum that don’t really belong in the review proper. Now it’s understandable that we can see this came from a distinguished sir, who owned a piece of land like a mountain, but there is a proverbial elephant in the room – and it’s this. MOUNT YOUR GAYS LADS – WE RIDE AT WHEN THE MOON PASSED THE SUN! (moar like drink some of this and I’ll mount a gay eh?)
Editor’s Note: Sorry.
Soho Park Lager
Soho Park Lager: 3.0 – It’s simply way too light for a lager, and has an unpleasant metallic taste. Looking back it’s highly likely that because this isn’t a typical beer it’s possible to be a watered down concoction stored improperly.
Price Average: $11
