I’ve definitely fucked with some 40s. The drink of choice was to take like 2 sips out of steel reserve then pour in some thawed frozen orange juice mix. One of those was enough to get started and the orange juice was ditched for the rest of the night.

At the same period of time that I was drinking this we found some old stock of oversized water bottle cages in the back of the shop. Guess what fit into them perfectly.

The appeal of 4loco was that it made everyone go crazy and stay up all night and do dumb shit

Nowadays we just mix everclear into bang birthday cake flavor

Same.

Holy shit

Rn I’m having a delirium red and it’s basically fruit flavored malt liquor

I was at the grocery store yesterday and it appears they’re up to like five of these bubbly liquor drinks. I was pretty impressed at how fast this took off.

Yeah they will be fine because their customers are young middle class women

Heard a thing on the news about ciders losing shelf space to hard seltzers. That makes me sad.

not surprising - i think they appeal to the same market, so the folks buying hard seltzers stopped buying cider.

Except is ain’t so bad since most of those ciders were horrible and were only made because ciders got popular for a minute. Most were bad and all were way too sweet.

I dunno the cider selection at even the local whole foods here has a ton of good stuff. Just the fact that Austin Eastciders exists and has crazy good distribution contradicts this.

Never heard of that stuff. I’m referring mostly to crap like ace or Jack’s or angry orchard

No Austin eastciders in Seattle? No way! I mean I guess in NYC we’re sitting just south of an exquisite apple region.

Lulz.

Eastern Washington, Oregon, and the Willamette valley aren’t exactly hostile to apples, grapes, or hops, and it’s a long distance between newy ork and Seattle. There’s plenty of local ciders available, for any taste and budget (as long as that budget is at least microbrew $).

They might not be in a local corner store, but they out there.

I’ve had some pretty good ciders.
The only problem is that they aren’t beer.

Yeah tons of high quality ciders from pnw. New England too. And ca for that matter

Aren’t apples literally what Washington is known for?

Just cuz the apples are good doesn’t mean the cider will be. I largely agree with Kyle that most of the ciders are bad. So many are so sickeningly sweet.
