Hello everyone and welcome to yet another cheap but shit tequila. Yes no holding back on our thoughts for after the fold, we want this shit in the Google Search Results to ward you off it. This is actually a 2-parter with the silver this week and the gold next week, and while that’s better we must first start with the swill.

Berkshire Brewing ‘Brewers Series’ Grisette
Berkshire Grisette: 6.5 – It truly is what you want from a grisette its light bit of citrus and easy to drink. There was quite a bit of head despite the lack of what feels like hoppy or wild yeast to the beer.
Price Average: $7 draft
Johnnie Walker A Song of Ice Blended Scotch Whisky 750mL
We wanted to post this at the end of the final season, but given how badly that went down we decided to let heads cool. (Get it?) The reason being that we actually want to recommend this to you dear readers, and it’s hard to do that with the amount of vitriol that was swirling around.
Barreled Souls – Summer Jam Sour Wheat Ale
Summer Jam: 7.5 – There is a bit of that wheat and overall pale ale flavor here, but let’s be real. This is a punch in the face of strawberries. Other strawberry beers often taste like strawberries, but in the way that you can tell, oh that’s how the berry has changed the taste of the beer. This? This taste like fucken strawberries, and we love it.

Steel Dust Handcrafted Vodka 750mL
We are suckers for a good creamy flavored vodka. (and to all of you who thought about that whipped cream vodka please seek help). No we mean a vodka that doesn’t feel clean or wheat-y, but creamy making it a prime candidate for one of our favorite drinks – a white Russian. This, however, is a double-edged sword because by virtue of not being ‘pure’ and ‘clean’ it’s possible this fails elsewhere.
Freigeist Geisterzug ‘Spruced Traditional Gose’ Ale
Spruced Traditional Gose: 1.0 – This is without a doubt the worst gose we’ve ever had. The consensus among the D&D group was that this is the worst gose and quite possibly one of the worst beers. It isn’t vile, but it’s basically undrinkable.
Price Average: $7

De Ranke Gravity Never Fails Porter
Gravity Never Fails Porter: 6.0 – It’s not a great porter, but that’s mostly because the additional bitterness mixes in a way that makes this feels like a British ESB instead of a regular porter. It’s overall tasty with the roasted malt and chocolate flavors combining well with the hops.
Price Average: $6

The Original Bombay Dry Gin 750mL
Now most people when they think Bombay picture that iconic blue bottle of Sapphire. Only those who’ve spent their time looking at the bottom shelves or met with a terrible fate asking for G&T at a bar to find there is another. So if Bombay Sapphire is the premium model, what’s the basic version like – well it’s certainly basic.
