Yeah, Surly only distributes their cans in the greater Twin Cities area. They're very highly regarded in the craft beer world.

Three or four bars in my area have that on tap. I'm going to give it a try.

It's superb. One of my very favorite beers, and I just had it for the first time last weekend.

This is going to sound really gay, especially coming from me.

But I'm drinking Nutty Irishmen tonight.

I'm drinking water.

I think I'm going to go a little crazy and make some green tea.

Cranberry Apple Crystal Light. I'm on call. :(

Booty call?

Nothing that exciting (or lucrative). Tech support.

I'm guessing for computers and not marital aides. NTTAWWT

Software.

Sounds like you like for it to be hardware. Yes?

It's been too long since I've seen a hard drive.

You just want to watch?

Should have said experienced. It's after 3am. Cut me some slack.

Bushmills on a post-paddy's day clearance. I'll drink Irish whiskey any day of the year!

Never!:evil:

Jacob's Creek Riesling. Not half bad, tart, dry rather than sweet - Australian riesling is never all that sweet. 'Limes + green apples', wish I had stopped and bought some shrimp. These JC wines are on sale at Gomer's in MO and MO Prrrrrrrrrrice Choppah this week for cheap. Pretty tasty for the sale price involved. Their Grenach/Shiraz blend is a nice red wine with burgers or pizza.

I don't have time to read the whole thread. Can someone give me the short version?

Short version?

Drink drank drunk

bud light

Square One Microbrews....Pale Ale, IPA, Siason, and a spicy Blonde, Export Lager

good stuff.

Whoa! Who are you?

Guinness from the tap. Not as good as in Ireland, but whatever.

Pabst Mother****in Blue Ribbon.

I wanted to St. Joe it up tonite, and down a bottle of Jim Beam and beat the shit out of a cardboard cut-out of my ex, but I gotta get up early tomorrow...

So, PBR it is.

Cheers!!!

Rolling Rock

Popped the cork on a malbec that I picked up the other day.

Good stuff

some Jack Daniels later tonight

Fat tire ale + a manhattan

Dr. Pepper

Cherry Coke

Evan Williams

Boulevard Smokestack Series: Two Jokers Double Wit

Give'r one for me!

Sometimes you can't beat a Manhattan.

Forgive my ignorance, what is a Manhattan?

Jack, and Coke, and cheap Pabsts here. lol

Whiskey (bourbon or Canadian)
Sweet vermouth
Aromatic bitters
Garnish (cherry or orange twist)


Not a bad drink, but I've gone over to Old Fashioneds on the rare occasion when I want something that sweet (around Christmas time).

Jameson, then New Castles, quick switch to vodka tonics, and finished off with a high life I'm not sure I tasted...AND my typing skills are officially shaky. But I feel like a million bucks. Starting grad school Monday!

Good evening planet.

A manhattan is a whiskey martini, for all intents. I make my manhattan with Rye whiskey, as they were originally made. Rye is a lot easier to find nowdays, Old Overholt is available almost everywhere - it's cheap and very good. I keep Old Overholt, and Wild Turkey rye 101, there are a a lot more nowdays but those are the two I always keep in stock. Rittenhouse 100 and Russel's Reserve, Baby Sazerac are available here in KC. Old Overholt runs $12 or so, the others run up to the mid $20s.

Pour a jigger of rye, third to half a jigger or so of sweet vermouth and a few shakes of bitters in a cocktail shaker with one ice cube. I shake until the ice is mostly gone, then serve in a 'rocks' glass. Most bars usually put them in a cocktail glass, like a martini. Some folks do like the maraschino cherry, I skip them. Have one buddy who likes them so much that he keeps a jar of the cherries, drained of their juice and refilled with bourbon. I think they ruin my boyish figure.

I've gotten a few of my friends hooked on these. After they ran thru the Russell's Reserve I gave them, they had trouble finding more real rye at their liquor store, so they learned to like them made with canadian whiskey. Most Canadian contains some rye in their blend, less now than in the past.

You can make the same recipe with blended Scotch, then they're called a Rob Roy. They're all a pretty good drink on a chilly night. Or a hot night, come to think of it.

i got shitcocked sitting outside playing guitar in the son with some bacardi, i felt great, since drums carry over to guitar i starting beating on the guitar (and weiner) and asked some black guys to spit some shit, they called me crazy and I played goo goo dolls while they walked away.

Buffalo Trace on ice. onto Eliah Craig on ice.

I think I'll drink this tonight.

Captain and Coke tonight.

Gonna get shitty.

Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash

I'll toast to that. I'm gonna be hittin' some 151 thanks to the advice to some planeteers. Hopefully it'll get me hopped up and I'll make alot of really bad decisions.

151, eh?

Have fun waking up from that coma tomorrow.

I might do a couple of shots of Ice 101 once I get to the bar, just to get the juices flowing. I'm not man enough to drink 151 straight.

I figure 6-7 Captain and Cokes at the house before I go out, then a couple shots once I get there and I'll be able to set it on cruise control the rest of the night. Have a few beers, shoot a few games of pool, talk to a few bustacious skanks...

Jonesy - Australian tawny 'port'. Sweet, dried fruits. Great with flan or creme brulee, or day old donuts. Whatever you got, it's good with it. Fortified wine = 30 proof or so. This one will fly under the radar and have the bishop kicking out his new stained glass windows. It's stupid good for stupid cheap. Lucas in MO has it for $9/750. Parker rates it at 93, BOCF says 'yeah, what he said'.

I'm on a Schlafly Coffee Stout right now, with a Tucher Dopplebock to come later.

I had a couple Schafly Pumpkin Ales last fall. They had it on tap at Kelly's here in St. Joe.

****ing excellent.

I enjoyed their Oatmeal Stout as well.

I've just been having trouble reaching a good and adequate intoxication level. For some reason, I have a very high tolerance despite me not weighing over 200 lbs. So, 151 it is. I've only had it in shots, not really used it in mixed drinks to predrink. We'll see if I go hoggin' or not!

Go Hoggin buddy.

Roll her in flour and look for the wet spot.

Old Engine Oil, an Old Ale from Harviestoun Brewery.

White Russians

rum and coke

My belly is full of Rogue Chocolate Stout.

Their Dead Guy Ale is one of my very faves.

I was thinking about putting some of those cans of ICEHOUSE in the fridge that someone put on my porch the other day, but decided I don't want to puke. I imagine I will get drunk at the bars one day and then decide it would be a good idea to drink those afterhours.

You will ponder that the rest of your life, no?

yes. If someone dropped 18 cans of beer on your porch you would be boggled as well.

Tag-Team WIN

Schlafly Summer Lager. BLVD Wheat.

.

PBR tallboys.

Keystone light.

I have a couple Boulevard wheat's that need to be in my belly.

PEACH TEA

Had some beers at Flat Branch brewpub in Columbia, their oatmeal stout and their dopplebock.

Someone make this.

Same as last night.

I'm trying this for the first time tonight. (Sorry about the image size!)

I picked up a sixer of Lincoln, NE's own Empyrean Brewing Company's Burning Skye Scottish Style, and I have to say I'm very impressed with it.

Ya know, I don't think I've had anything to drink today.

Famous last words.

Seriously. Alcoholic or non-alcoholic. I don't recall drinking anything today. I need to remedy that. Crystal Light, anyone?

Poor Man's Margarita!!!

Lemonade and Tequila!
