Stoli Moscow Mule Kit at Costco.
What's not to love? ................A lot.

Well, now they make the vodka in Latvia but that's sorta like Russia, right?
Good thing I had a couple copper cups at home because the kit doesn't come with any, even though they are required per the instructions and pictured on the box. Guess everyone has a few laying around.
Not sure where they got the 'ginger' for their ginger beer because it tasted like carbonated corn syrup. Nada.
Only out $32 for the 1.75 liter and bought it for a party, but it is something I'll never buy again.
Oh ya, no limes or lime juice either which their recipe required. Figured a 'pack' or 'kit' would have everything you need except the ice.

That's gayer than 3 dudes fighting over a backpack full of buttholes. Just get some Russian standard, reeds ginger beer and a lime. The reeds extra makes it pretty damn good.

Ugh.

Reminds me of that time I bought premixed 'long island iced tea'.... WTF....

If you're going for a moscow mule and like ginger.... There is a ginger vodka called Yazi, and partner that with a decent ginger beer like Bundaberg, Regatta, or cock'n bull (local)..

Black Raven Grandfather Raven Imperial Stout. Blacker than a moonless night, thicker than January molasses, richer than Bill Gates. Delicious. Nicely balanced. Not overly malty/sweet like many Imperials. As the label suggests, bitter chocolate and subtle caramel come through. The implied “coffee” doesn’t really show up, but it isn’t missed, either. 4.75 out of 5 stars.

^ 22 ounces of 9.5 percent ... that’ll do it!

Sounds delicious.

Nice review, enjoy :thumbsup2:

Madpick is right on the alcohol content....

It's always funny to watch guys drink something theyre not used to, like that, or Dead Guy Ale, or Men's Room Red, and treat it like the Bud Light they drink normally....

"I nominly don get dith dunk....."

Drink 3 in 45 mins, and.....

Generic QFC vodka, Wylers instant lemonade, and ice made from unfiltered tap water served in a semi fluted Wal Mart tumbler made in Turkey.

I grabbed a 1.75L of Costco's Kirkland Signature Blended Scotch Whiskey...


Popped it open last night and gave it a taste. Not bad at all. I like it and it's only $30 per half gallon, out the door!

I’ve got a cold, but really wanted a beer.

It’s a little foamy but not bad at all. I feel better already.
