I haven't been much myself.

Chill out while listening to "Bambi" by Hippo Campus—a catchy yet mellow song anyone can interpret in their own unique way. One interpretation of the lyrics in this electronic melody could be about the struggles of securing your dream job and creating the life you've always wanted.

You know exactly what you want but you can't just start there. You need experience to reach your dream but it's hard and you lack motivation. You try your best but you would rather sit at home and enjoy some bourbon or a nice craft beer.
"I swear to God I wasn't born to fight. Maybe just a little bit, enough to make me sick of it."
It's the weekend and you're exhausted. Your friends invite you to go out and you tag along. You put on a show and smile but you would rather stay at home and enjoy that very same drink you had after work. You have too much to think about. You are almost certain you won't do anything productive while you're home but you also know partying with your friends isn't going to help either.
"I haven't been much myself and I feel like my friends are being put through this hell I'm feeling. I think that I'm living if you could call it living, so brash and unforgiving, ruled by the vibe I'm bringing."
This song is a mellow one. It's easy on the ears much like how Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale is on the tongue. It has a fantastic electronic tune with company of some soft drums and bass. It's a song about daydreaming and one you can listen to while you just lean back and daydream about your own life. Think about your future job, family, house, and even your brand new car while you savor your newly founded beer.
"Wait and see; I'll be making my own way now. I'll be making my own way now to where I got to be."
This beer by the Alltech Lexington Brewing and Distilling Company is aged for six weeks in bourbon barrels from some of Kentucky’s finest distilleries. You'll taste notes of oak, vanilla, caramel, and toffee. It's a little sweet, a little malty, and not very bitter. So pick up a goblet and pretend to be a modern mad man (or women) as you put your tastebuds on an adventure while you dream about what's down the road.

Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass.

You're in the Mafia and you made a deal with the devil. You promised to follow through but you got caught. Now you're going to court and you can't bring up who you're working with. If you do, it's the end of you. "I bet my billionth bottom dollar on a hopeless case and now the devil on my shoulder has a knife to my face." Maybe it's time to talk to daddy. After all, he has connections. He can get you out of anything. But then again, if he helps you, you will pay. No, not with money; you're broke after paying your lawyer. You'll pay with something much more severe, most likely your life. "Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest. Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest. Sometimes all you gotta say is 'Daddy, make it go away.' Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass." After talking to daddy, you find it's in your best interest to stay away from him and his workers. You go back to court and the police as

There's a picture on the wall of Kanye West.

"Freaking Out," the psychedelic pop-rock song by The Wrecks, gets pretty weird… "In the bathroom, on my back, there's a picture on the wall of Kanye West. He's staring at me; he's staring at me. I'm freaking out; I'm freaking out." …as weird as an IPA labeled with a tiger shooting rainbow-lasers out of his eyes. Elysian's Dayglow IPA pairs perfectly with the odd sounds The Wrecks bring us in this new single. "I'm on the lawn. It's almost 3:00. I look around; I look at her; she looks at me. She's suspicious; she's suspicious. I'm freaking out; I'm freaking out." The lyrics and the sounds of the keyboard will automatically have you thinking, "this is weird." And even more so if you listen to the guitar rift in the first second as you stare at your newly found Dayglow bottle. But then you take a sip. It's crisp, a little juicy, and oh my—is that pineapple? Yes, it is! Now your on to the cho

Dance for me.

"Dance Monkey" by Tones and I on their only release so far, The Kids Are Coming, is truly unique. Enjoy this fresh new song with the fresh and fun Belgian-style tripel, Golden Monkey, by Victory Brewing Company, based in Downingtown, PA. "Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me." There's that one person at the bar you want to have an exhilarating experience with; that could be a dance. That's what this song is all about. You know your paths will separate at some point but you should enjoy the moment while it's right in front of you. "I've never seen anybody do the things you do before. They say move for me, move for me, move for me and when you're done I'll make you do it all again." Belgian tripels are not so different. Savior the moment. These beers are hard to come by at a lively bar but they are a great choice. They're strong so it'll last you awhile before having to wait in line at the bar again but they are also
