More Information:
Mezcal! That's right, mezcal is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from any type of maguey - similar to tequila. The word mezcal comes from Nahuatl mexcalli, which means "oven-cooked agave." We've tried tequila on the channel before but never mezcal! Let's see how our TRYers react to this new drink!

Two TRY Legends back again! And George was also back. 😜 🤣
PS I think we need to put Lolsy’s reaction face on a T-shirt 😂
indeed
ABOUT FREAKING TIME!!! AND 100% on the shirts hahaha
Lol, "los HA-bees". 😉
I loved your Lolsy face on that middle tequila. Classic, now learn to burp.
It's like she's practicing a pirate face!
It was an absolute pleasure being paired with Lolsy for her first video back!
I WAS SO HAPPY TO BE PAIRED WITH YOU FOR THIS TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE.
@@lolsybyrne5337 shared trauma!
@@lolsybyrne5337 Well done both- thank you!
@@lolsybyrne5337 I hope they give/gave you something nicer for your next taping. As far as the "pussy pussy pussy" goes, you have WAY bigger huevos than I would trying that stuff.
You both were a laugh riot.
My god, I missed Lolsy! Note to Ireland: NEVER LET LOLSY LEAVE IRELAND EVER AGAIN! !
Unless she wants to go, because it's mean for us to cage her for our own amusement. No matter how amused we are. :o)
I 2nd this
@@Kurgosh1 He's saying she's a national treasure... let him pay Lolsy a compliment without worrying too much about it 🙂
I mean last time she left there was a global pandemic, I don't think it's a coincidence.
@@krash2fast99 i think they where saying something called a joke
It's been a while since the video, but to whoever might be useful: the reason mezcal is mainly produced in Oaxaca is because the name is a protected denomination.
By this point you may have deduced that tequila, mezcal and other drinks share almost the same thing in common: they are alcoholic drinks that come from the distilation of agave. But (by law) depending on the region you make the distilation process, the method (with old tools or in a factory) and the plant species you use, you can (or can't) use the name. To call an agave distilation "mezcal" you need to use specific species of agave, (mostly) traditional tools to process the plant and make your process in the designated regions; otherwise you can't use the word "mezcal" in your label.
In the present, there is an ongoing debate of what commercial name should be used for the drinks produced with the exact same processes for tequila, mezcal, sotol or bacanora that are made outside the legal designated regions (remember, by mexican law only certain regions can use those name to protect heritage and commerce).
"Pussy, pussy... XD"
Be proud, according to the official ranking of mexican authorities, Montelobos is one of the three mezcals with the highest alcohol content (only surpassed by two brands: Santa Pedrera and Alipús). It would be fair to say, though, that while it was fun to see them suffering their first encounter with mezcal, there are softer brands; precisely for those who don't want to have their clavicles sweating very early on in the drinking experience XD.
There are other mezcal products that softer even more the experience, like "mezcal cream".
montelobos is not even close to being in the top 3 for alcohol content, lol... its only 43%... there are many in the 50% range.
@@ogarza3 one of the highest alcohol content for a comercial mezcal, the legal ones.
I guess its what he's trying to say
@RobertMrQuez you can walk into any boutique mezcaleria here in México, and almost all of them will be above 45%, all legal and commercial.
Couldn’t have explained it better myself. I see you are a man of culture as well. Also tequila is just fancy mezcal :3
@@RobertMrQuez Commercial? The bar i use to work at legitimately had 9 different mezcals higher than 43%, and we were a small bar -- not even a mezcal one. Lol.
"People are people and you shouldn't call them names. Thank you."
Wiser words were never spoken.
But...people have actual names. And adjectives aren't names. I'm so lost.

Good to see Lolsy back! She's like a balance to Ciera, who drinks petrol without flinching. Those two should always be together in an alcohol video.
YES!
Hopefully in a Durian fruit alcohol video. >_>
Ciera: Oh, this is grand. I like this.
Lolsy:
That's an awesome idea!!
@@wumpusrat spot on!
I'm sure I'll be one of many to say this: It's good to see Lolsy on the channel again
Watching her eyes go wonky at 1:30 has made my week, and this came out on a Monday.
Yup . 😝
Amen to that! Didn't realize how much I missed her until every second she was on screen this video.
George as well. Funny dude...
Yessss. George and Lolsy are 2 of my favorite try-ers 😍
Watching the Tryers try to pronounce Spanish words and Mexican states is actually even funnier than Justine trying to do a Virginia accent.
Futhermore...: I think sometimes People Who usually cannot pronounce a foregeing idiom, drunk can actually speak quite better.
I'm so sad no-one intentionally tried to use a Virginia accent, that I heard, but a lot of the mispronunciation could very well be - Buena Vista anyone?
Lolsy never disappoints with the "faces".
"My clavicles are sweating"
7:00 is the best one by far 😆
_Straight death at 100% for lolz_
Lolsy was missed. Her confusion, her burping, and the expressive face. Just lovely.
Mexican here, I once tried moonshine mezcal. It tasted like a mixture of vodka and tequila but with a deeper fruit aroma and sweet tinge; a tad oily. After the first (and only) chug I went blind for a couple of seconds and felt a punch directly on my brain. My Dad, God bless his souls, told me I wasn't suppossed to drink it neat.
12/10, would try it again.
I would recommend another video with mezcal cocktails, the earthy and smoky flavors go very good with sweet flavors, as they mentioned. In Mexico there is a very traditional well known of preparing a cocktail with Jamaica water, is prepared like a tea with jamaica dried flowers, or even something more sweet like a mango cocktail with mezcal, nice to see a Mexican drink being "enjoyed" (haha) by other people around the world!
LOLSY!!!! Welcome back! We missed the contrast you bring to the team. 🥳🥳🥳 now we have enough people that are animated after drinking the beverages, the stoic-poets, the fussy eaters, the party extroverts, and the casual folk. Now, I hope there are some exotic food tries in the future...the type that make you question your life choices.😬 😆😆😆 seriously, great episode.👍👍👍
The Try team is awesome and it's great to see Lolsy in a video.
Mezcal has only started becoming more popular in the US. For decades it was known as the booze with the worm in it. Great at parties, (who will eat the worm). Our bars close by yelling “Last call” maybe turn on brighter lights.
Lolsy’s expressions and reactions make the world a better place and make my sides hurt from laughing so damn hard. Thanks for that Lolsy
I missed Lolsy's expressions so much. It's great to have her back.
I've not felt such a high level of joy in a long time. Thank you TRY, thank you Lolsy.
I looove Irish people. Starting today. Lolsy is my favorite Irish person. Greetings from Mexico.
Lolsy is just so fun to watch :D Would love Clare and George to tell more stories of the tragic demise of various woodland creatures, or the next chapter of the lone bee survivor's journey of self discovery and establishing its own colony
George, god bless him, has returned with new rhythm and patience, with more comedy chops. Thanks so much!
That first one turned Lolsy into a pirate against her will. 🤣
I could not be behind the camera during a Lolsy filming session...no amount of ADR would drown out my laughter.
Every time Clisare mentioned lemons I was like “Wait, do they not have LIMES in Ireland?!” 🍋🤯
Also, Lolsy’s facial expressions, especially while Aidan is just ignoring her and giving his opinion, were absolutely hilarious!!! 😂🤪
When I lived in the UK for 4 years it was always lemons. I don’t know what they never had limes.
I think they probably didn't have limes in Ireland about 30-40 years ago when people first started figuring the tequila thing out, so they used lemons instead and that just became the standard. There's more South and Central Americans in Ireland (particularly Dublin) now so the cocktails are much more accurate these days
Yes, I was wondering that as well, what happened to a lick of salt & sucking the lime after ? Hmmm 🤔
They dont like limes because it's green... 🤔😬🤣
Tequila specifically comes from the state of Jalisco in Mexico, the same way real champagne is made in France only. Mezcal is a broad term for alcohol made from agave plants, mainly the blue agave.
When Lolsy said Mezcal is a type of Tequila, she had it backward. Tequila is a type of mezcal. Tequila must be made from blue agave (& only blue agave).
All Tequilas are a type of Mezcal but all Mezcals are not tequila. The clear or blanco tequila is the shortest aged, the gold is blanco with Carmel color added... a rip off, the next is reposado, then anejo, with anajo regular and extra and the extra you sip like fine wine.
Hell of a welcome back for Lolsy! xD Such a pleasure to see her again. Love the variety of reactions to the mezcal.
I love the paddy explanation of no self control. I can relate
Very happy to see George and Laura back on. I've missed them.
Lolsy. Be respectful.
I'm bingeing y'alls old content and Lolsy's expressions will never not make me laugh! 🤣🤣
" If its too easy to drink then I will keep drinking it". That totally makes sense to me.
I am so glad LOLSY Is back!!! I forgot how much she makes me laugh!!!
Are you sure they're Irish? 🤣 Lot's of complaints about alcohol! Hahahaha Lolsy is a legend of expressions! Love her! Burp... I mean... Cheers! 😁
You should do a mezcal cocktail trial! Anything you make with tequila can be done with mezcal but it adds a depth to the flavor that some people find amazing
Hilarious! Lolsy and George were so funny. Welcome back!
I am so excited to see Lolsy in try videos again!!!
Montelobos is a fantastic mescal. Tried it a while back and loved it.
I love Claire's analysis!
Lolsy is BACK!!! finally the alcohol try episodes are back to 4 stars again! "Faith and begorrah what a pleasure it tis to see such a fine broth of a lass the likes of which I've not seen in years! how do ye do how do ye do?!"
“It turns out I just love suckin lemons” - Clisare. The BEST comment. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 6:36
I love Lolsy reactions. She is so cute and funny 🤣🤣🤣. She did a whole transformation 💕💕💕 bring her back more often.
I'm amused how Mezcal is now considered a higher end alcohol. When I was growing up, it was one of the cheapest around. The bums sleeping in the alleyways drank this stuff. Maddog 20/20 was a step up from Mezcal.
There are grades of all kinds of alcohol. Just compare something like Jack Daniel’s to a good bourbon like Buffalo Trace or Three Roses, or Bombay Sapphire gin vs Roku gin. Also, there have only been higher end brands of tequila for the last 15 or so years tops, so it’s time for mezcal to step up too.
Right? When I was a kid, Maddog was for drinkin, Mezcal for disinfecting.
Jaysus, Maddog is cornershop drunk fare.
No.
$4 Champagne is still trash. There’s good stuff and lesser quality stuff in every category.
Mezcal is tequila but it’s not produced in the region that can legally call it Tequila. Just like the Champagne region in France. If it doesn’t come from there - then it ain’t.
The US makes plenty of sparkling wine- but we can’t call it Champagne
Yes this is how I remember it too
Seeing both Lolsy and George in the same video seems like a dream. Great to see both of them back
I always enjoy Clisare's company, but George seems to bring out the most good cheer in her---great pairing!
Irish-Mexican here. Irish whiskey beats scotch every time. But Mezcal beats tequila too :D I have a Mezcal right now from an old lady who makes it, and it is liquid fire. You could start a jet engine with it. Its like Mexican moonshine. (raicilla)
Jalisco = Tequila
Oaxaca = Mescal
Ireland = Whiskey
Kentucky = Burbon
Laughing so hard im crying. Lolsy is a WHOLE mood.
Yay! Lolsy and George are back! Missed you both!! And Lolsy's alcohol reactions have been sorely missed!
Losly's expressive reactions are gold. I laugh till I cry😍
Good to see Lolsy again, such animation, such awesome expression!
Lolsy’s reactions are everything. Love her! 😆❤️
She comes back, and you have someone under the table hitting Lolsy with a cattle prod all shoot.
That’s mean, everyone. Stop being mean.
As a whisky and mezcal mexican aficionado myself, I’m glad I’m not the only one comparing them two.
The bar/dance club where I spent much of my formative adult years used Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Were Made for Walking" as their walk out song.
Lolsy-you did great! You made me laugh till tears flowed down my cheeks. Thank you for going through that.
Where's Demont? Irish Jesus and Black Jacket Guy? You need to do a part 2 of this. I wanna see their reactions to this. Would be historic!
YAY I’ve been waiting for Lolsy to come back!! Started to think she was staying away or behind the scenes, missed her in the alcohol videos!!!
The only mezcal I've ever had was something dodgy-looking brought back to the US by a friend who had gone to Mexico to visit family. It was like getting clubbed over the head, then overly affectionate stroking - like an abusive boyfriend.
Sounds like Mezcal alright, swills awful
An abusive boyfriend, or a kinky girlfriend.
@@aceundead4750 the one who set your apartment on fire and told the cops you did it, but does that thing with her hips? Yeah.

Somebody needs to pay you to write descriptions on food and drink packaging
So happy George and Lolsy are back!!
Lousy makes the best faces when doing shots… I kept rewinding…. Great show
😄😄 We have 2 of those in the cabinet RIGHT NOW!! 😂 I'm (Mike) sipping the Montelobos today 🤣🤣 We would cherish every moment drinking with any of you 🤘👏🍻💕 Nicely done y'all
It's been a while good to see George Fox & Aidan Greene, god I love his sense of humor!
Love seeing Lolsy back. Yay!
Lolsy is the best!!! So glad she’s back!! Now, where’s Kellie been?
I never laughed so hard in my life! Lolsy's reaction was all too real!
It's great to see Lolsy back...but here's a suggestion...give the Tryers a Mezcal worm in each shot then ask them to say a simple tongue twister after each one. Just the reaction of seeing the worm in the shot glass would be worth watching the video!!
Awesome to see her back
There is also a mezcal with a worm in the bottle and a spicy lick before the shot that was my favorite I can't remember the name of it though 👍😀🎊🎉🎈ps folklore if you ate the worm you would hallucinate
I drank a bottle with the worm on my birthday for 25 yrs, after drinking the full bottle you'll see some chit, the worm is just a snack.
Gusano Rojo. That stuff is rocket fuel.
Guidance Rojo. I love that stuff. It's like drinking your barbeque grill. The smoke flavor is strong and greasy, like good barbacoa tacos.
@@thomasking5472 now that's something they should try, real barbacoa from way south Texas

Lolsy's back! YAY!!!! Don't get me wrong, I love all y'all, but I'm so happy to see Lolsy again!
Can't tell you how much I missed Lolsy's reaction face, and George's comedy. Watching him tease about Clisare's lemon addiction was just golden.
Lolsy’s expressions has me rolling on the floor. And her last comment, the tears were just pouring down from all the laughter 😂😂😂
Lolsy's facial expressions...her drunken, incoherent ramble near the end, omg lmmfao!!!!!!
This is one of the best lolsy videos I've seen. She was grand
OMG! The Lolsy burp!!!! I had no idea how much I missed that!!!!!
Aaah how I've missed Lolsy. Welcome back sweet girl❣ Loving the reactions in this episode.
Lolsy is great…plus I love seeing younger folks wearing a Beatles t-shirt. Love all your videos.
IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE LOLSY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
Lolsy! George! SO glad to see them both!
As a Oaxaca resident I can say the bottles you used would not be drunk in Oaxaca - it is a commercialized version of the real Mezcal I buy from the artisanal and ancestral little producers.
To taste a mezcal it is important to do it in a tall glass and holding it by the neck, this way you prevent it from getting hot and you will be able to detect its qualities.
View: Good production is reflected in the color, clarity, brightness, transparency and body that is perceived by the density of the “tears” it generates.
Smell: The intensity of the aroma will depend on the agave with which it was distilled. When vacuuming it, do not do it all at once because you will not be able to appreciate its components.
Taste: Before trying it, shake the glass and smell it again, it will release essences that you had not discovered. This way you can identify its sweetness, acidity or bitterness.
Touch: When you try it you can feel the heat, the cold, the astringency of the drink or whether it is spicy, burning or abrasive.
8:46 Lolsy's pronunciation actually scared me... Was not expecting to hear my tio's voice to come out of her
I had once mezcal with a Spanish guy (I am a mezcal fan). First time he did not like ir at all. The second time we finished an entire bottle. It was great.
Final Ward with: Very Slightly Smoky Rye Whisky (100 Rittenhouse will do, but the original recipe calls for Danish Stauning Bastard Rye), Lime (not lemon!), Green Chartreuse (or sub, i use Gauloise Vert nowadays), and Agave Liqour (mixing 50/50 Light Agave Sirup and Mezcal (the gentle Del Maguey Vida)) - Lime goes with the Mezcal and the dilluted smoke of the Mezcal goes with the Rye. This, especially with original componenets, will fire *everything* in your mouth. "The Bastard" is a drink for sipping and drooling both :D This is the best use of Mezcal I have come across, and why I have a bottle.
Lolsy's face after taking that shot got me 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂...
I had a good laugh at the “dehydration” joke lol
Good video!
Always,always love these drinking episodes !
Soooooooo happy to see Lolsy and George back! You have been deeply missed!
yeah montelobos is something i keep around for after a stresfull day, not something id give out, also its kind of expensive for a local to buy so there is also that.
Tequilla is a sipping drink once you have been sick a few times when binging.
Watching the Mezcal work its Latin Magic to morph Lolsy into the adorable, if slightly malformed goat, Lupe, from the Ferdinand movie was literally everything.
Del Maguey makes amazing Mezcal. I've only had Vida but I've had that a lot. I really need to spread out.
Glad lolsy back favorite lady ❤💕!!
Hello, Lolsy
This is Louis, Lolsy
It's so nice to have you back where you belong
Lolsy's facial expressions have me dying with laughter! She's so fun to watch!
A bartenders suggestion; when you drink just about any alcohol its best to allow your mouth to tamper the burn a bit and to acclimate every thing to the drink. Let it rest in your mouth for a few seconds and then let the drink go over your tongue and let it rest then swallow. You can neutralize quite a bit of alcohol burns this way and you get the flavor. You should experience in almost every sample of a drink a front end taste, a middle of the road and a finish. When you let the drink rest a bit in your mouth you are actually initiating quite a bit of stuff going on in there with chemical bonds and reactions and to get the full experience when you are sipping that drink should stay in there for a bit. Its almost like smoking a cigar or eating a complex desert you tend to savor the flavor a bit longer before the next step.
I find mezcal to be pretty horrid, but the mezcal they make with the scorpion in the bottle looks impressive.
I've never heard of scorpions in mezcal only certain worms that live in the agave plants, and whoever takes the last shot from the bottle is required to swallow the worm it's a tradition. They worms are said to be very hallucinogenic. 🌵
@@robtowen My local Total Wine has the stuff. Scorpion Mezcal Reposado
9:13 "cause of death Burp" LOL 😂😂😂
the 3th mezcal is Mezcal Joven, so is less stronger than the reposado, cos' the reposado as the name says "Restful" is more stronger cause the reposado have more time of destilado
They have sent them good non-commercial mezcals, Oaxaca is the state that has the highest production in Nexico and a greater variety of agaves to make mezcal
YAY!!!! Lolsy is BACK!!! I've missed the Lolsy alcohol face!!!!
I was so concerned with the first mezcal. I’m glad you brought on at least one high quality product for this one (del maguey). You should do more history lessons for them. Ie why does the del maguey come in a hand woven basket. Difference between this and tequila.
And to add a 3rd element - pulque, the third drink made from the agave plant (made from the sap of the agave). Mezcal is made from the cooked "heart" of the agave, while tequilla uses the entire plant. Pulque was made for hundreds of years before either mezcal or tequilla.
I missed Lolsy's faces. It's good to have her back.
Should make a tshirt with that Lolsy quote "People are people and you shouldn't call them names".
