I've been really into the hazy and milkshake IPA's lately, I've got a few I need to post on here.

Here is my honest review: Bird Dog is a cheap whisky. The praline flavor is strong, but not too strong (*like Honey Jager or Leopold Brothers New York Apple). However, the sweetness is a little overdone. It's okay for sippin, but unless you really loved it, it'd be tough to have a bunch of glasses in one night. It has kind of a caramel/pecan pie smell, and tastes pretty similar. It'd probably be amazing as a way to spice up a coffee in the winter.

*Honey Jager tastes EXACTLY like you just drank a shot of honey, which is impressive, but after a spoon full of honey by itself I'm usually done, let alone an entire ounce at one time.
I had Leopold New York Apple once and it was a bit too strong/sweet, BUT if you cut it by about 50% with water, it tastes just like apple juice. Apple juice that will sneak up and kick your ass if you get carried away.
My favorite flavored whiskey so far is Crown Royal Peach, which I seem to be able to drink lots of at a time. My buddy showed me that peach whiskey mixed with lemon aid is pretty great.

I can't remember who, but someone has a pineapple milkshake IPA. It wasn't terrible, but trying a few cans of it was enough.
