[Stephen Thomas Erlewine](/source/Stephen_Thomas_Erlewine) of [AllMusic](/source/AllMusic) gave the album three stars out of five, writing that "not one song is undeniable, the kind that works into the subconscious, but that doesn't really matter, as this is just breezy fun, a collection of cheerful drinking songs that never threaten to careen out of control."[4]
