Hammerlock (Original)

Is it Lady Aurelia in the form of a cocktail helping Handsome Jack? Who knows, but one thing is for certain, The Hammerlock takes its influence from the Manhattan cocktail formula of whiskey + sweet flavor component + bitter flavor component. For the PostModern Spirits Hammerlock, American Single Malt Whiskey is the backbone of the cocktail. Amaro Alpino plus a cinnamon & cardamom syrup play the respective roles of cocktail bitters and sweetener. This well balanced whiskey cocktail is sure to fuel many video game sessions.
