00:00Stacey Burke here. Let's try a new beer. Or is it a beer? Let's see.
00:04Hi, Stacey Burke here, and I just got home from the strawberry farm.
00:08Yes, I'm back to work.
00:10And I stopped by my local liquor store to find a new beer.
00:16I think it's a beer. I don't know. It says Long Drink.
00:20Let's see. It's an 8.5.
00:23The Finnish Long Drink, Legend of 1952, Strong Citrus.
00:33And it doesn't really say. I'm thinking it's a beer.
00:37Oh, no. Oh, oh, no.
00:40It says gin with natural grapefruit and juniper berry flavors and carbonation.
00:46Oh, boy. I thought it was a beer.
00:48Me and gin don't get along.
00:51I used to like gin. Well, no, I don't know if I ever liked gin, actually.
00:54My mom used to like a Belvedere dry martini.
00:58Um, and to me, it tastes like gasoline. It tastes like perfume.
01:03I'm not a fan of gin.
01:04Because I like, I used to drink vodka sodas, um, back in the day, back in the DA, before seltzers
01:11and all that.
01:12And sometimes they would accidentally give me gin.
01:16Gin kind of makes me a little, kind of violent, I think.
01:21Because I haven't had it in over 20 years, so I don't know.
01:23I'll give it a whirl, since I bought it.
01:26You know, maybe it's different.
01:27But me and gin do not get along.
01:30First of all, it tastes like perfume.
01:32And second of all, it doesn't give me a good buzz.
01:34It just makes me agitated.
01:38So, good thing.
01:39No one's around.
01:41Oh, I smell it.
01:41I smell the gin.
01:43What? What the hell?
01:46I smell the gin.
01:48Alright, bottom up.
01:52After I finish this, someone's bottom is going to be up.
01:55And not in a good way.
01:58Alright.
01:59Smells like gin.
02:01Smells like gin.
02:02Like gin and soda.
02:03Or gin and juice.
02:05Gin and juice.
02:06But it's bubbly.
02:07Okay, here we go.
02:09Okay.
02:11Okay.
02:12Okay.
02:14Okay.
02:16Okay, I'm not hating it.
02:17It's light and refreshing.
02:24The perfumey is not that bad.
02:27It's not bad.
02:29Maybe because it's in here.
02:30If I went to go get a gin drink at a bar, I probably would not like it.
02:35But I'm not hating it.
02:37It's better than some of the seltzers I drink.
02:39Like, I don't like those seltzers.
02:41It just tastes like carbonated water.
02:43And it's just too filling.
02:45This doesn't taste filling.
02:46Although, I don't know.
02:47I only had a couple sips.
02:52This seems lighter.
02:56And the bubbles seem, like, smaller.
03:00Like, it's not like big bubbles.
03:01Like, big gassy bubbles.
03:03This is like...
03:06The bubbles...
03:07I don't know.
03:08It seems smaller to me.
03:09Like, look.
03:10You don't really see that many bubbles.
03:13It is carbonated.
03:14But it's like...
03:16You know, sometimes when it's carbonated, it's those big bubbles and it makes you burp and gassy and stuff.
03:21This is like...
03:23Refreshing.
03:24And you enjoy the bubbles without it being too overpowering.
03:28If that makes sense.
03:32Okay, it's a hot day today.
03:35So, um...
03:37I'll drink it.
03:37I like it.
03:39I like it.
03:40We'll see how it goes.
03:42I don't think it's that much gin.
03:44So, it's like...
03:44I don't think I'm going to get agitated.
03:46It's not like a gin strong drink.
03:48You know what I mean?
03:48It is an 8.5 and it is kind of dangerous because it doesn't taste that strong at all.
03:58It tastes almost like a fresca.
04:00Like when you're drinking a fresca.
04:02So, I like it.
04:03Okay.
04:04Two thumbs up from Stacey Burke.
04:06So, it's...
04:07I don't know.
04:08I guess it's just a long drink.
04:09That's the name of the place.
04:11The Finnish Long Drink.
04:12Legends of 1952.
04:13Because I see other long drinks.
04:15And they have different things.
04:17So, um...
04:18Yeah.
04:19So, it's gin, grapefruit, juniper berry, and carbonation.
04:24Alright.
04:25So, if you find it, I give it two thumbs up.
04:27Alright.
04:28Stacey Burke out.
04:29I hope you have a groovy day.
04:30Until next time.
04:31Peace.
