Huh? Is that a Blonde joke?

New York has 'em too.

Dirty Blonde - Adirondack Pub & Brewery - Lake George, NY - BeerAdvocate

Tried one this past summer. First reaction: too bubbly.

That's really awful. I think the 'rape culture' people aren't completely off the mark.

... though if I'm ever marketing lead for the launch of a new premium vodka, I now know what our theme will be:

Completely Tasteless

"SnootyPants Vodka - Completely Tasteless"

... and the art department will crank out dozens of completely tasteless images. I'll be supervising the copy editing myself.

"SnootyPants. We have NO taste."

Cheers,

LOL, had a couple of bottles of that myself up at LG this summer. Agreed, quite bubbly, and more so when your bouncin around on a boat.

Pouring the beer into a glass took care of the problem. Also bought a 6 of their Iroquois Pale Ale - which was also fizzy.

I had samples of a couple other brews from them at a pub, though the names escape me at the moment.

Crap ad, but supposedly that's an excellent vodka. It's Polish. I've not tried it, but I have tried Chopin ...also Polish. It's also excellent.

The Poles know their vodka.
