I charged him to haul it away...  |
epic win for you, epic fail for them
the concept for this beer actually seems like it could have been successful (there are a LOT of ed hardy juiceheads out in the hamptons), but ultimately the execution was a complete disaster. they should have at least put some effort into the taste.
