A student I certified a couple weeks ago heard that I loke Laphroaig, so sipping this tonight. Very awesome.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...54e5f87105.jpg

Sorry for your loss man

Box wine may not be your cup of tea, but this time of year I go buy a box of rose' and drink it up over the next month or so - watching football or after yardwork. The La Ville Ferme Rose' they review in the link above is my fave - but 'Black Box' rose' is a good 2nd choice IMHO. The ex loved rose' wine - I loved getting her lit up on the stuff, and just so it didn't look like the set-up it was - I always drank along with her. Got to where I liked it too, and still try to keep up the tradition. You never know - she might wander back in if she hears I've got her pink wine and a lawn chair. It always used to work.

ETA: I talked myself into running out to buy a 3L box of dry Rose' on sale - grabbed a handle of Cutty on sale as well - to help justify my gas money. It's hard to explain the leaps of acceptance that occurs when I'm justifying gas money on liquor store runs. It doesn't have to make sense - it just has to help keep daddy's liquor shelf full.

Makers Mark 46...

Thanks dude

Drinking Makers and Coke Zero, been doing low carb for a while. Will switch to on the rocks later just need to take it easy for a bit.

Dalmore 14. Nectar.

I've barely been drinking any alcohol lately.

I think I need to see my doctor.

Not drinking tonight, but tomorrow is my birthday, and it's shaping up to be one of the shittiest ones in my memory, so after work I'm going to have at least a double Whistlepig 12 year straight up and probably one belt of The MacCallan's 12-year Single Malt Scotch on the rocks.

Amen.

Happy BDay Megatron.

I used to never be a Scotch or Bourbon drinker, but "healthy" is/was a reason for developing a taste. I take my time with it, and that's good...

Drinking whiskey has shown to help lower triglycerides.

We should all drink 1 glass of whiskey every day.

Then I may not have any triglycerides...

Thanks buddy. Much appreciated.

I bought alcohol today per doctor's orders.

Bottle of Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo, 750ml of Tito's and 750ml of Jagermeister.

I'm good for a few days. :D

Wild Turkey 101

Martini with tanqueray dry and garlic jalapeño olives

I like Titos - but it's spendy. Ask for some Polish vodka, give it a try - you can buy 2 or 3 fifths for what they charge for a fifth of Titos. Tito's may be 'better' but not by much. And that whole 2 or 3 bottles thing gives me a reason to figure.

That brings back memories.

Drinking some Proper Twelve and smoking some Gelato 41

Wild turkey gets a bad rap. It's not bad for that price range.

What brands of polish vodka are readily available? I usually just buy the Costco brand and am very happy but willing to keep my eye out for others at the liquor store

Enjoy what you like - and stay home to drink it.

Re: Polish vodka -- walk thru your nearest good liquor store, see what you spot. Most vodka drinkers drink what they know is good - I married one, I know what I'm talking about. Ask the guy behind the counter what vodka from Poland he's got. Russian vodka may be cheaper - but to hell with those guys.

How's proper twelve? I've only seen people shit on it. Can't wait to get my med card here in a few weeks!

I drink whatever the folks on the second story of the establishment pour into the funnel.

Yeah WT is a fine bourbon IMO paid $20 but **** I can't tell if it's a supply chain thing or just demand but the liquor store was selling Makers for $28 bucks. I remmeber a few years ago when it was $20. Not worth damn near $30 IMO

Didn't say it was bad memories. They make a great bourbon.

I have been getting the Knob Creek 100proof from Costco. Saves a little bit of $.

Need to get back to St Croix or St John and bring back a case of decent rum for reeeeaaaaalllllll cheap.

It's decent. Probably better at the same price if I really think about it.

I like Jamesons better. Three Gingers is decent as well.

:clap::clap::clap:

Worth the price? I'm partial to Laphroaig. just picked up a bottle of the Select, looking for the Laphroaig 15 (It's the new King's favorite), but Proper 12 is always right there.

Should I?

Just saw this reply. OK, I'll give it a go.

I'll make an Irish whiskey suggestion as well. Try some Bushmills Black Label (the Black Bush) when you see it. Always was my favorite back in the day.

Very tasty!

I really did not like Proper Twelve. That's a really sanitized version of what I said when I first tried it. There are so many better options for Irish whiskey -- Green/Yellow Spot, Redbreast, Tullamore DEW, Glendalough.

A little changeup. Had this at the winery a month back or so and brought a bottle home. Really enjoy it but goddamn if it doesn't taste like candy.

Austrian Vodka
 

Very Good $10.99 at Trader Joe's
Originally Polish

Oh btw, I know the whole alcohol is alcohol thing is true. But this shit got me extra wine drunk. Had a couple martinis and then killed that bottle and woke up on my couch at 4am wondering wtf was going on. I just remember my head feeling like it was floating and then I was out.

Will do again at some point but I really don't get too ****ed up off much of anything unless I just obliterate whiskey and this was a different drunkenness altogether.

Stouts just don’t do it for me. Got this in a sampler and it’s a solid meh

This morning I had Jägermeister and 12 year Balvenie Doublewood delivered by Amazon at 6:40am. Used a $55 Amazon gift card for most of the cost.

Going to have some whisky tonight with a cigar.

I’m back trying stouts. Not giving up yet. This one was like a Reese’s cup so it was great. Drank two and would drink again.

Sounds fantastic! They're pretty solid from what I've tried.... I've tried a couple that were really on point, and a couple that were probably a bit of an oversell ("double fudge brownie stout" being more like "there's some chocolate there").

Purchased this a couple weekends ago and it's pretty damn good... mostly coffee flavor, with a little bit of whiskey, and it's really smooth (only 33%).

Got hooked on Grind espresso rum for a while, but it has a ton of sugar in it and it's hard to find. First Light isn't nearly as sweet, which is nice.

I have tried some other pastry stouts and didn't care for them either, but this really is easy drinking motor oil. Peanut butter all the way thru so I was very pleasantly surprised and really could have went after two more of those 16oz. cans and been alright but saved them for another session.

I was in Anaheim the other day and had to pick up this guy, not sure I've ever tried a "BBA Sour Imperial Stout".

It's a lot of bourbon, but opening up more with a nice cherry flavor. They can be a bit hit or miss, but they do a lot of stouts (I think 75% of their tap list the other day was stouts) along with Bottle Logic only a couple miles away.

16.2% is high octane.

My good buddy Weiser, and some Pinnacle vodka

And we drink alone

For now yeah, but a buddy is coming over after work :D

Nice nice.

Your pal Jimmy Beam?

I tend to shy away from the dark stuff, an angry and ugly redneck lurks deep within me... and that stuff almost always brings him out :D

I'm a professional mixologist. Little bit of this. Little bit of that. Touch of this here, little herbage and I'll find my zen. LOL

With nobody else.

Except 360 Double Chocolate vodka and cheap beer.

360 makes some great vodka!

I've mixed the double chocolate with this and it's delicious, and their lemon vodka makes a great limoncello drink... and I'm not big on drinking straight vodka, but I'm sure they're tasty on their own, too.

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/...AA500SH20_.jpg

Those are good mixers. Used a wide variety of them with vodka

Gotta be careful mixing the boozes my man, it can produce some crippling hangovers hahahaaa... for sure on the herbage tho, they go together like peas n carrots

They sure do. I've accumulated some drinking knowledge over the years. I have my mixes down and keep it on the level for the most part, but yes, yes it can kill you if you do it wrong.

Unless you are not a fan of chocolate or peanut butter, give this a try, you might like it. Hy-Vee carries it, but it frequently sells out..

Evan Williams black label as 'standard pour' with some Van Winkle 12 year set aside for celebrations.

Broke out the fine china today. Coffee flavored motor oil first then the rest of my create a six pack to follow. If you love coffee and you love stouts this is probably your jam. It’s not mine

Beer and vodka, a tried and true formula

I had a really good coffee whiskey, but it went rather quickly on previous weekend mornings with 9 or 10am games... and I'm actually short on beer, too.

So, at the moment all I've got is 10am 124 proof bourbon... will see how this game goes and whether it'll get opened. LMAO

Not supposed to drink, but I picked up a 24oz of ale in town. Parked in the garage and got out, turned on some Tom Petty, petted the dog, and drank that ale.
Now I’m going to go inside and turn on the game
sec

I usually just tolerate sours but this one finds a balance I can dig. Tart but not gonna make you pucker and the flavor combo is just nice. Makes me want a pie

One of my dive buddies got me some of this nectar while they were in Tulsa for Xmas. Very tasty... I'm going to enjoy sipping on it for a while.. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a2f4676a66.jpg

I haven't had any alcohol in nearly 3 weeks and yet I have a gout attack.

Time to buy some booze.

Just nothing with pickle juice...

Pickle shots are good for you!! Little afternoon kick starter

Just have a pickleback cocktail. Equal parts pickle juice to bourbon over ice. Squeeze of lime if you're wanting a bit more.

I'm gonna do this lew. Never tried it but I love pickles, I love bourbon, I love lime, I love drinking.

Don't see where it can go wrong.

Simple syrup or a sweetener of your choice can help too. It's a fantastic cocktail actually, although it sounds weird up front to many.

Yeah it sounds weird, but I've done the shot with jameson before and with vodka so no reason why I should be scared to commit to a full drink.

Thanks bruh

I have some Makers we will see I'm pretty hungover
