"The Reuben Package" Bonus Review
Bonus Review - Thermal Packaging
No one typically pays attention to packaging, but Katz’s choice to use one of the most innovative solutions on the market deserves mention. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see a truly better material show up in replacement of the norm. Opening up the box, the contents were perfectly nestled into the natural cocoon of thermal management the liners provided. The ClimaCell liners crafted by RVA’s manufacturing juggernaut TemperPack arrived in perfect condition. A quick gut estimate gave me the impression that these liners weighed about 22 ounces per square yard. The perfect 1.0” thickness and geometrically perfect fitment shows TemperPack’s commitment to world class manufacturing and the ultimate success of their customers. Who knew packaging could be so interesting?
Double Bonus Review - Brooklyn Six Point Brewing "Anti-Resin"
While cooking up the amazing offering from Katz’s deli and writing these reviews, I have been sampling a new offering from Brooklyn’s own Six Point Brewing: the “Anti-Resin”. At a fat 9.1% ABV, one thing is clear: this will get you drunk. Here’s the problem: you don’t even know it’s happening. With the original “Resin”, you know what you’re getting into because the ridiculously high 103 IBU level punches you in the jaw every sip. However, the “Anti-Resin” Hazy IPA offers no such warning at 0 IBU. It sneaks up on you like a James River water snake while sunbathing on the Texas Beach rocks. It’s all carefree fun until one of these legless slime freaks crawls up your swim trunks. And with that statement, it is clear the Anti-Resin has gotten the best of me and I’m done reviewing things for today.
