Switchback Ale: 5.000000001 – That is a contender for the most ‘micro-brew standard ale’ ale. Honestly this is about as inoffensive as you get, but at least it’s perfectly fine at par. (I made sure to add significant digits to emphasize this)
Google Shop Average: Switchback Ale $5

Dunkel Lager: 5.5 – It’s an okay lager, and there is an aftertaste of something more porter stout, but overall it’s rather weak for a dark/black lager.
Google Shop Average: Dunkel Lager $18 for 24-pack

Sigh. Sorry to bum everyone out, but I am just waiting to try a Canadian whiskey that is actually something great. Something that is more than just a single note of Rye, or a subpar taste. However again I seem to be stuck into reviewing a whiskey that is for lack of better or more eloquent words bad.
Well I think it’s time for some scotch, but because I am clearly masochistic by point of doing this site – it’s time for some more bottom shelf scotches. This week we got with Ballantine, which they themselves have little to say and since I was taught to never say anything unless it’s nice I do as well. (Read: Total lies)
Rusty Chain: 5.5 – A bit too sweet for my tastes, but an overall solid beer choice – not that I’ve had too many vienna style lagers (let alone from a can of which we did not know this came bottled at the time)
Google Shop Average: Rusty Chain $9 for 6-pack (cans we got were cheaper ofc)

It’s been a while since I checked in with a Cuervo, and I’m glad that I did. It’s always good to remind myself why the hell I check myself out, because Cuervo is just awful tequila to drink. Make no mistake it’s not worse than tequila which is bland and terrible – but goddamn does the word pain come up a lot in my thoughts and review.
Hill Farmstead Everett: 4.0 – This was part of a flight of pale ales, and sadly the IPA’s destroyed my palate. This however is just a sub average porter.

Hill Farmstead Double Citra: 2.0 – Called an American Imperial Pale Ale this feels almost no different than an actual IPA, and as a flight I was beginning to worry the last was a black IPA.
