Thanks for that link. Interesting article. I may have to track down some Angel's Envy.

Went to the Abbey tonight. Most popular gay bar in West Hollywood (our company is at the heart of it).

Huge ass strong ass drinks. I'm liking it. Minus the gay dudes. But I'm not homophobic so it's ok. Lol

Terry989 · 08-26-2017, 02:56 PM

Here are some of the Whiskys that I current have open (left to right):

Caol Ila 15 yr old - Sovereign bottling, bottled 1996. Great balance, I love this Whisky!
MaCallan 18 yr old - distilled in 1986. A lovely gift from my lovely wife!
Glenfarclas 25 yr old. Good, but I think the 21 and 17 yr old are better.
Springbank 15 yr old. A whisky of impeccable balance.
Lagavulin 16 yr old. Another old friend that I almost always have open.

Love Glenfarclas, and agree that the 21 is better

Sipping some blackberry cider at McMenamins in Portland. I started with a local Hefe but just couldn't do it. All the last 4 days I've been pulling blackberries off the vine so I guess it's apprapo that I get smashed on blackberries the last night in town

Although gma always took us to get blackberries, and always took us to the dog races, she never mentioned cider. I think now she was holdin out on mah

mktmkr · 08-27-2017, 10:13 AM

Michters Bourbon neat or as an old fashioned. Best I've had regardless of the price.

Sounds like something a girl might like.

Lure them in with a bit of sweet nectar, and before they know it they are doing belly shots.

It's OK young grasshopper, you have a long life

I see you're from PA, (so am I originally), which is where Michters started. Have you ever tried Willett's, or Michters Sour Mash?

M_Six · 08-31-2017, 10:36 PM

Plantation 20. Nectar of the Gods.

Pro tip - you can feed the girls the girl drinks not yourself.

Had some last night well pineapple actually

Watching The World Burn · 08-31-2017, 10:59 PM

Ahh yes, pineapple. Definitely up there in the "manly fruits" category.

1MOREMOD · 08-31-2017, 11:08 PM

Have you had plantation pineapple pretty light and it's straight booze not some a Foo Foo drink

M_Six · 09-01-2017, 12:18 AM

Agreed. Don't dis the pineapple until you've tried it.

I like Scotch, straight...none of these diluted with fruit liquors.

*Beats chest*

I'm just giving you a hard time for making fun of the ciders.

But I do like my scotch neat. And I'd be more inclined to try the plantation straight, rather than pineapple, because that's just how I prefer the hard stuff I've found.

But I like ciders too. I'm an equal opportunity drinker.

1MOREMOD · 09-01-2017, 09:35 AM

They are 2 different things plantation 20 and Plantation pineapple it's not a mixed drink. Like my booze straight or ipas mostly.

Many. I never hit the liquor super store without grabbing a bottle.

There's no slime. At least none that you'd notice.
