Stackz On Stackz On Stackz: 7.6 – It’s an imperial blonde ale aged on blueberries and maple syrup. Extremely sweet, so you really would only be able to drink 12oz before becoming sick of it. Like most Barreled Souls beers it’s unique, and it tastes like a blueberry biscuit.
Price Average: $7 draft

This rum sucks ass. We want to be as clear and upfront about this as possible. We want the damn Google search results to include this first bit of text about how much ass this rum sucks. Do not buy this unless you want a headache, or because you’re a Royal Navy sailor and England is forcing this upon you and calling it a ration.
Horse Tongue: 7.0 – That tart bit of sour and the wheat combine in a way that makes this feel sort of like a red ale. It’s nice and crisp, and that sour is bringing a bit of fruit, but the barrel aging brings it all down to stop it from being overpowering. It’s actually really good.
Price Average: $14 for 22oz

Hop Sounds Dry-Hopped Kolsch: 7.5 – There’s a very unique sort of sweetness going on there that comes back in the long aftertaste. The fruit here is very nice, and it’s a very nice kolsch that does a lot of very nice things.
Price Average: $12 for 6-pack

Maybe it’s seasonal depression given this review is happening mid-Jan, but this vodka just evokes a mindset that makes you sort of want to hate it. It’s got this naming and imagery that seems more at place on a rum, and yet we can’t deny – it’s actually an all around above average vodka.
Petal Prophecy Honey IPA: 7.0 – This site tends to shy away from IPAs (unless you are River Styx brewing), but we still try IPAs despite our bias, and review the ones we like – this is one of those. While there ideally would be just a touch more honey or spice to make this an amazing beer – it’s an IPA worth talking about.
Price Average: $13 for 4-pack cans

Maple Breakfast Stout: 6.0 – While it might not be something you’d actually drink for breakfast it does carry that marriage of coffee and maple flavors well. The sweetness of the maple thankfully helps balance it, but the effect is a bit odd compared to other coffee beers.
Price Average: $3

2020, well it’s certainly a new year despite the same old problems going on – a microcosm of this tequila if we’re honest. No part of this is truly terrible (well the price is for what you’re getting) but it is overall just – fine. The same beats told again of not having anything spectacular, burn a little too much, and then to compound the sin – basic ass mixers.
