[chocotaco]

Is it from a variety pack?

Despite my background of "bottle holders" it is not from a mixed pack.

Yeah your right I just happened to have that bottle and a picture of it laying around. trying to make you feel better, it took you like 3 guesses last round

Heh, the pic with the bottle actually didn't come up for me at first. So I was a bit incredulous

True story, there is a Peruvian restaurant near me that usually has Total Domination on tap and serves it in the exact same glass that you used. We go there often for executive meetings. So I have had it served that way many times. When I saw the glass I was like "wow that looks exactly like a glass of Total Domination at Inka Mama's". Boom goes the dynamite.

Every once in a while you get so lucky that it makes you look like some kind of alcoholic savant If you had used a different glass I am 100% sure I would not have guessed it correctly. It's just color+shape association.

 

[chocotaco]

Is the rarely used variety a grain?
