Congrats (one each) to you and your grad student Shelly! Two or four wheels Colin?

Stuck it out until the Giants won in the 12th inning. Go Giants!

My fourth beer at the ballpark: Lagunitas IPA Harp Sierra Nevada Guiness/Harp half & half

Home opener for the world champion San Francisco Giants!

It's really not uncommon so you need to have non-mixed drinks as options

Never ask for a zombie unless you are at a tiki bar. And wtf is a kryotonite? Unless you are at a bar that actually makes cocktails, then stick with straight booze, neat or on the rocks, bourbon & soda, gin & tonic, whatever. Manhattan is an easy drink to make and to screw up. Ask if they have rye whiskey and specify that, and say you want 2-1 rye to vermouth, with a couple dashes of bitters. Or don't order it. I capped the evening with a summer negroni from some recipe I found on Alcademics.com. Tasty but I miss the strong bitter of Campari. 2oz each gin, Aperol, and Lillet blanc. Orange wedge and on the rocks.

Nice Marc! I really enjoyed my Anvil Zombie. Should do it again sometime. Right now, in order to finish the Fever Tree soda, I mixed up a Sloe Gin Fizz with equal parts sloe and dry gin (1.5oz), about 1oz lemon juice, a scant teaspoon simple syrup, and 2-3oz soda. The dry gin is not in the recipe I was using but I needed a bit more kick.

Just finished, but it was a pork chop and sugar snap peas with bourbon mint julep glaze. I wanted a mint julep on the side but all the mint was gone, so an FBI Fizz sufficed.

Nice progression, Dan. I had an FBI Fizz from the Stork Club book 1oz each Cherry Heering brandy, bourbon, and jamaica (Trinidad) rum, stirred and strained into highball or rocks glass two ice cubes with orange peel and fill with chilled soda water.

Plumbing sucks. [No pun intended]

Disgusting. Is that a barber's PC?

And 100% natural! Be careful which zombie you put it in!

Hey, we're pretty good! Glad you got square so fast, Andy, and thanks again for taking that on.

Happy belated Zach! Cheers

You're the fucking moron who bought the $500 cable and then fucked it up so badly. How is that ALO's fault you stupid git?

Wicked Whisky Wednesday in Woostah! Sounds wicked good. Now quaffing an Anvil Bar creation that is very tasty and quite potent as built (high proof and 2x) Diplomat Cocktail 1oz dry gin 1oz Bonal .5oz Combier triple sec (Cointreau) 1 barspoon maraschino 2 dashes orange bitters Lemon peel garnish

Good luck with it Ken!

No, Kevin was referring to the later sequel, Inspector Gidget! Go Go Gidget Flying Hat!

Funny, your own post is swiftly turning out to be one of the most annoying. Read the link in my signature unless you are a bot like you sound.

Hey Adrian, how's things in Bawston?

Happy birthday Sherwood. Now, Dinny, how does this Rocky Mountain Rye differ from the Rendezvous and aged rye by High West?

New Yorker cocktail from the 1946 Stork Club Cocktail Book 2oz rye whiskey Juice of half a lime 1 tsp sugar 1 dash grenadine Orange twist Good stuff! Toasting Shelly's hubby's feeling better. And while typing my niece/goddaughter called to say she and her wonderful boyfriend are engaged and want to be married at Mayberry. I'm all verklempt, talk amongst yourselves.

Corpse Revivor No. 1 1.5oz brandy (prefeably cognac) .75oz apple brandy (preferably calvados) .75oz Italian vermouth Stir with ice, strain, express twist of lemon and toss in. Very tasty, especially given the XO, but the No. 2 is still better.
