Had occasion a few days ago to try Fat Tire for the first time in years.

It's worse than I remembered. Much worse. They did something to the recipe for sure.

I gave it more credit (or gave myself less credit, I suppose) in another thread - I drink primarily beer and whiskey, and really don't drink wines of any sort. It would have been miraculous if I was impressed, it's really just not my thing. I dunno, I was just kind of hoping to find something sparkly that I enjoy when I'm up in the air! I'll bring a pair of plastic flutes some trip coming up, and we'll enjoy the mimosas and pretending we're fancy, just like we do at bottomless mimosa brunches =p

I don't care what drinks are offered, as long as they don't dump Diet Dr. Pepper.

I found it so odd they didn't wait to do a new drink menu in the planes until after the DPSU lemon lime changes and have this card showing both the old and new options.

But I am looking forward to the new sparkling water. I think this will complete the major carriers all having added an essence sparkling water.

Great phase-in of these new drinks, Southwest.

+1
They did not have the Lagunitas offering on my 12/4 ONT-PHX flight or 12/7 PHX-ONT flight. Had to show the drink menu to the FA on my outbound flight.

Feel free to take the the drink menu photo with a grain of salt. Taken 12/27 on my SNA->MDW flight. The Deep Eddy Vodka was not too bad. I always ask for the can of pop so I can add the Vodka to it as needed,
