Now it appears there is going to be a product for people who want to have a mixed drink and not haul heavy booze containers with them.

Has anyone actually tried the beer?  If so, I'd like to hear about it.

Just saw this.

Looks like the days of hauling liquor for generic MIXED drinks might be a thing of the past?

What's a 'mixed drink'?  The only thing I mix my liquor with is my liver.

I did not see any single malt or Irish listed. I gave up lemon drops 45 years ago.

My camping single malt is frequently Aberlour a'Bunadh.  At 120 proof, you don't need a lot (it even benefits from a drop or two of water).

I take lemon drops every trip, but its for use on portages.  I'll pop one in my mouth at the beginning of a longer portage to keep my mouth from getting dry (and give be a little sugar boost).

Man you guys want EVERYTHING first class. Wink Grin
I figure this item will be popular with the people like me who wouldn't know good booze from bad, because we don't drink hard liquor on a regular basis. For the true connoisseur of fine spirits, this isn't it. Tongue

Doc, Second that The Abelour A'Bundah or nearly cask strength is a fine sipping single malt.  A drop or two of clear glacial lake H2O opens it up so fine.  You only have to make sure it gets up there in an unbreakable container like saline bottles that I use for surgery.  Airtight seal with a silicone gasket, pour it in just before you hit the trail and your beverage is very safe.

Oh this is an easy one. Pick any Kentucky bourbon (95 percent of bourbon is made in the Bluegrass State -- the rest is counterfeit), and go with a small-batch or single-barrel flavor.

Done.
