What Are You Drinking? (February 2020)

[hymnchimney]

I'm a brewer in a brewery in NC, so I normally just drink whatever the latest beer we've canned is. I get it for free, and I've got a family to support, so the price is right! I prefer a nice lager or pilsner when presented with the option. However, with a pipe at the end of a long day, a nice glass of bourbon or scotch scratches that particular itch like nothing else will.

Three pints of The Irish Gift to human kind, Guinness. Now moving on to Yuegling. Went down smooth with skirt steak a la Korea. My recipe.

Garage temperature is the best temperature, regardless of what the actual temperature is.

A New England IPA, tonight. Thank God it's the weekend. About to smoke the inaugural bowl in my new Kaywoodie briar and life is gonna be just fine, until tomorrow anyway.

Carnival weekend. I was raised Catholic and even though I've decided I'm more agnostic or atheist I'll be giving up beer for lent. I like giving up something I enjoy for a month or two. Keeps my center centered. Also I want to lose some weight. Long way of saying I'm drinking beer while I can because Lent is nigh!

Andechs doppelbock, and Leikeim "Steinbier" are what I've had so far this afternoon.

Black coffee. Ethiopian Harrar beans roasted a few blocks away, retaining all the blueberry-apricot smokey goodness of a good Harrar bean.

Haig* Scotch wiskey on the rocks and topped with club soda, here we use call these Wiskey grogs/or high balls, although don't know if its correct definition

I was there soon after it opened a few years ago. I was in Kings Mtn. yesterday in fact but didn’t have time to hit Shelby.

That's awesome! Swing by next time you're in the area. All 3 of us Brewers are pipesmen, and with a little heads up @rushx9 could be there too.

I used to work there as well. Definitely give me a shout if you get down this way! Would love to thank you face-to-face for the Germain's and Manil samples!
