TailGate Brewery<\/a> makes a collection of classic beers, and surprisingly it\u2019s also behind a tea-and-lemonade brand called Nashville (named after its home city). Both tea and lemonade can be useful cocktailing ingredients, so let\u2019s give these canned offerings a shot. All come in massive 16 oz. containers.<\/p>\nNashville Lemonade<\/strong> \u2013 If this had had a bit of pulp in it, I\u2019d have been convinced it was homemade. Mind you, one can will get you 76% of your recommended daily allowance of sugar, but the tart lemon notes are authentic and crisp, effectively cutting through all that sweetness. It\u2019s for sure a decadent treat on its own, and a useful shortcut for cocktailing as a lemony mixer. A-<\/strong><\/p>\nNashville Sunshine <\/strong>\u2013 A mix of sweet tea and lemonade \u2014 Nashville\u2019s answer to the Arnold Palmer. It\u2019s surprisingly fruity up top, almost like it\u2019s made with Nashville\u2019s peach tea instead of sweet tea, with a squeeze of lemon added to the mix. After the rush of sweet fruit fades, the tea comes into focus \u2014 particularly on the expressive nose, once it gets some time in glass. Ultimately the balance between the two halves is pretty spot on, making for a beverage that might be better than the sum of its parts.\u00a0A-<\/strong><\/p>\nNashville Sweet Tea<\/strong> \u2013 A moderate to strong sun tea flavor kicks things off \u2014 classic and vaguely minty \u2014 until a healthy sweetness comes into focus and takes over. Though it\u2019s sweetened just with cane sugar, the character hits as equal parts brown sugar and honey thanks to the interaction with the underlying tea. At 180 calories per can, that sugar is doing an awful lot of the talking \u2014 but damn if it doesn\u2019t take you on a trip straight back to Sunday afternoons in the South. B+<\/strong><\/p>\nNashville Peach Tea<\/strong> \u2013 I\u2019m not really a fan of peach (or really any fruit) in my tea, but for some I know it\u2019s the only way to fly. The flavor is not inauthentic or overloaded, but the extra sweetness is palpable. At 180 calories per can it\u2019s a lot to manage in sugar alone \u2014 and the fruit notes become even stronger as the tea warms up. Too much for me.
