Just like most any other Wendesday night, I spent last at a friend's place BBQing. Well eating hummus and chips while others threw some meat on the grill. Instead of breaking out a bottle of wine for the occasion, since I had to drive home, I only had a beer or two. Around the time when the ghost stories were being told, and I'd already eaten my delicious smore, Keith and I decided to take off for a lazy movie night.
We stoped at Bar Barry (a liquour store) so that he could pick up Amarula, a South African fermented fruit beverage (around $20 dollars a bottle), which will be commented on later when he sends me the picture. While we were there I pickedup a Mike's harder fruit punch, just for laughs really. I only ended up drinking about 4 ounces of it while we watched A Boy and His Dog. According to Netflix its a cult classic, and while it doesn't totally make sense, its a worthwhile hour and 27 minutes. Who can resist a post-apocalyptic romp with a strangly uplifting ending?
Ah, so for ratings, Mike's get's a 5/5 for value. At 8% a can of this stuff will get you pretty buzzed for less than three dollars, and you CAN'T taste the alcohol at all, so its really a dangerous product. I'll give it a 4/5 for yumminess though, because I'm guessing the hangover from this sugary stuff could be pretty nasty. Overall, a tastey, but not totally girly outdoors type drink. Hasta luego!
Ever wondered if that bottom shelf wine was worth the last three dollar bills in your wallet? We can help!

FYI the Mike's harder lemonade is also very tasty and can be bought in a four pack of cans.
