Jason Isaacs, who currently is starring on USA’s Dig, stopped by the BuzzFeed Los Angeles offices to taste-test our enchanting concoctions.
All Potterheads know this to be true: There is no better wizarding beverage than Butterbeer.
You can try some at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, or the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in England. But what if you made your OWN Butterbeer at home, from scratch?
Luckily, we're always up for a challenge, so four "Hogwarts students" (JK, BuzzFeed employees) decided to test their Potions prowess and whip up their own interpretation of the drink, which has been described as a "less sickly butterscotch" by none other than J.K. Rowling herself.

But we couldn't just make four Butterbeers and call it a day. We needed to determine a WINNER, and who better to judge our efforts than Jason Isaacs, aka Lucius Malfoy himself?!?
Jason currently is starring on USA’s Dig — an “action-adventure, murder-mystery, conspiracy thriller,” as he described it, that travels across the world — and said it's “more real and more exciting than many things I’ve done” (also, you should be catching up on the show, he said, because “you don’t want people to spoil the huge, surprising fun shit that happens.”)
Luckily for us, he said he’s “always loved sweet things.”

Jason stopped by BuzzFeed's L.A. office to lend his discerning Death Eater taste to our Butterbeer taste test.

Our four Hogwarts students had 15 minutes to whip up their best interpretation of a Butterbeer for Jason to taste-test. Let's just say the competition was VERY heated!
