The Hexer’s ninth chapter just may be its most eventful one yet. Renfri returns! Geralt confronts Falwick! Ciri makes her (somewhat anticlimactic) debut! It’s an episode that’s, frankly, overloaded with important moments, and so we’ve paired it with an equally overloaded spirit—the 125-proof White Dog Mash #1 by Buffalo Trace Distillery. There’s no doubt the raw, unaged White Dog is powerful stuff, but is it actually whiskey? That proves to be a matter for debate, as does whether or not we like Hexer’s take on Ciri, if Nenneke should just stop screwing around and jump Geralt’s bones already and what the heck the Temple of Melitele’s vision-seeing Iola is doing for most of the episode.
