Peanut Butter & a Double-Walled Delight

It’s time for another round of Thirsty Thursday—where we test mystery drinks, try out branded drinkware, and give our unfiltered opinions (for the good of marketing, of course).

This episode brought the full crew: Jade Crider, Briar Swigert, and Kirby Hasseman—and yes, things got interesting fast.

The Drink: Peanut Butter Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing

This week’s mystery pour was the Peanut Butter Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing Company—a creamy, dessert-style beer that definitely sparked some reactions.

Here’s how it went down:

  • Jade: Hard pass. The flavor and texture combo was just not her thing.
  • Briar: Surprisingly into it. Smooth, sweet, and different in a good way.
  • Kirby: Hesitant at first, but once the reveal came, he said:

“Now that I know what it is… it makes sense. It’s kind of growing on me.”

So if you’re into rich, nutty, sweet beers—this one might be your vibe. If you’re Jade? Probably not.

The Drinkware: Double-Walled Acrylic Tumbler from BelPromo

Now this was something everyone agreed on.

This episode featured the Double-Walled Acrylic Tumbler from BelPromo, and the entire crew loved it. No debate. No hesitation.

Why it stood out:

  • Keeps drinks cold longer thanks to the double-wall insulation
  • Lightweight and durable—perfect for events, giveaways, or employee gifts
  • Clear walls show off your drink (even weird ones like peanut butter stout)
  • Great imprint area for branding without feeling bulky

It’s one of those everyday-use drinkware pieces that people will actually keep—and keep using.

Why Thirsty Thursday Works

We say it every week: branded merch isn’t just stuff—when it’s useful and well-designed, it creates real impressions.

This episode proves it again:

  • Drink? Divisive.  Everyone has their own opinion (and they should).
  • Drinkware? Home run.
  • Brand impact? Lasting.

So whether you’re team peanut butter beer forever or team please never again, we can all agree—the tumbler stole the show.
