You can't, you can't, Dark and Stormy is trademarked.

You gotta be very, very careful.

I-K-W-Y-D-L-S are the initials of which horror film? Okay then, next two questions are spot the not.

So question three, which of these is not a variety of pumpkin? Is it A, Red October, B, Cinderella, or C, Washington Naval? Which of these is not a variety of pumpkin? Is it A, Red October, B, Cinderella, or C, Washington Naval? And question four, which of these cocktails does not usually contain rum? Is it A, Dark and Stormy, B, Corpse Reviver Number Two, or C, Zombie? Which of these cocktails does not usually contain rum? A, Dark and Stormy, B, Corpse Reviver Number Two, or C, Zombie? Okay, next two questions of this round are anagrams, and they are anagrams of characters from horror novels, okay? So question five, uh, Cut Cauldron is an anagram of which horror novel character? And phonetically that is A, Alpha, C, Charlie, uh, U for Uniform, T for Tango, and then Charlie, Alpha, Uniform, Lima, Delta, Romeo, Oscar, and November.

Uh, Cut Cauldron is an anagram of, uh, which horror novel character? And question six, Piney News is an anagram of a character from which horror novel? And that is spelled, uh, P for Papa, and then India, November, Echo, Yankee, November, Echo, Whiskey, and Sierra.

So Piney News is an anagram of which horror novel character? Okay, and because this is a Halloween themed quiz, you might have thought, uh, you weren't getting a Guess Their Age question this week, but I'm afraid to disappoint you because here they come, 'cause the last two are Guess Their Age.

So question three, I asked you which of these is not a variety of pumpkin, Red October, Cinderella, or Washington Navel.

And the answer was Washington Navel, as that is a variety of orange.

Question four, I asked which of these cocktails does not contain rum, Dark and Stormy, Corpse Reviver Number 2, or Zombie.

And the answer is Corpse Reviver Number 2, because that contains a gin.

And it was like

dark and stormy.

Yeah, I remember them.

All those ones, they were fucking yum.

They were very

yum.

The best thing about the dark and stormy one... was it's Bundy rum and the ginger beer.

explanatory videos.

But I'm calling it the five D's of drinking.

Where you have to drink a Dos Equis, a Dogfish Head, a Dark and Stormy, a Downy Cider, and then a draft beer of your choosing.

My five D's of drinking, because all of them start with a D, much like One Piece.

I like it.

...

Bloody Mary, Dark 'n' Stormy, Martini, and you can tell me how, how you prefer your martini, uh, a Mojito, an Old Fashioned, and a Whiskey Sour.

And so there are seven of them.

I am including the visible part of the spectrum, and we'll go down the list.

Okay.

Another good choice.

What about a Dark 'n' Stormy?

Hmm, a Dark 'n' Stormy.

I don't know if that's from Jamaica or where that's from, but, um, is that something you all are exploring or seeing consumers use ginger bug in?

Yeah, I mean, there's the Dark and Stormy and the Moscow Mule are the two big cocktails that use ginger beer specifically rather than ginger ale.

And yeah, we've heard that a million times at markets.

Oh, I'm going to use this in my Moscow Mule tonight.
