What Are You Drinking? August 2023

[woodensmile]

Picked up a few bottles of this earlier in July. 100% agave and quite tasty. Some for now, some to stash

It's very fortunate that my sons enjoy beer. A few bottles with my son. That cup is from Japan.

Just had a small pour of Color of the Night Oatmeal Stout at Fidens Brewery in Albany. Got three four packs of their IPAs to go. The stout was okay, but the IPAs I’ve had from them in the past are killer. No pets allowed, so Susan took Wasabi for a walk.

Earlier tonight, at East Caroga Lake, my nephew shared some Ba Ba Ba Babanana Co Coco Pi Pie Mead.

Last night I found what I think is my last bottle of the lovely Knob Creek. It almost didn't happen as once I'd removed the black wax strip the bung flatly refused to budge. I mean it just refused to move! I hate those silicone bungs with a passion.

Then I had to go hunting for my toolbox to dig out my mole grips. That sorted the bugger. Was it worth all that effort? Of course it was


Regards,

Jay.

Green River Bourbon. It lives up to the hype!

One of the best sub $40 bourbons

It is really good. I almost didn't try it as the OZ Tyler speed aged stuff was nasty. Now, three bottles later, I am really glad I did.

You pairing that with some Green River tobacco?

I've only tried 7 different gins so far in my life and I've liked them all. I'm wondering if there's one out there that I wouldn't like. View attachment 238031View attachment 238032View attachment 238033

If you haven’t tried sapphire or Hendrick’s they are a must

I'd pair that with almost anything

Tea. Lots and lots of tea.

Maybe if there’s any Irishmen on the forum this can make a stir:

Barry’s is better than Lyon’s. Hands down.

Margarita: corazon reposada, gran marnier, lime, agave nectar. Shaken with ice, served up.

Currently a Bombay negroni, perfect for a sweltering day.

I love The Botanist, but it's a little spendy.

Big fan of the Whyte Laydie gin from Montgomery Distillery in Missoula MT

Having Fidens Waiheke Double IPA, 8.4%, made with Rakau, Nelson, and Simcoe hops, this batch released August 8th.

One of the Belgian beers I think, this one has strawberry notes, I don't like it at all. I bought a varied assortment, some of them are tasty, these ones with fruit added, I don't like them.

Wish they had these here, it would save trips (100 pack of beer)...
