Fitz Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 As per the gin elders' advice: Hendrick's / Fever-Tree G&T with cucumber. It's certainly different than what I'm used to, not bad at all.
morphsci Posted October 27, 2011 Author Report Posted October 27, 2011 Lots of drinking tonight. Since I couldn't decide between Al's awesome Mountain Man, Shelly's stupendous Cobble Hill or Mike's magnificent Sazerac, I decided to have a double Liberal.
Absorbine_Sr Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 And since it was mentioned earlier, a Hendricks pink gin. Yum!
Voltron Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Excellent work Shelly, HDen, Dinny, Jim and Mike! I was lazy and had another Mountain Man.
Fitz Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 I was lazy and had another G&T. Just to finish off the Fever-Tree I opened, of course.
Absorbine_Sr Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 And I had one more pink gin. Because why the fuck not?
Augsburger Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Another wine centric dinner that was full of awesomeness. The theme for the dinner was a double blind wine tasting where we brown bagged our respective wines and attempted to guess the year, AVA and varietal. I brought a 2006 Mollydooker Velvet Glove and my friend brought a 2009 Malibu Cielo red. For added fun we had the bartender, a Anna Chapman doppleganger hang with us and share her martini recipes. Appetizers were a duck shu mai, wagu and sweet potato confiteish dish and a few others. Dinner did in fact not suck.............
Fitz Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 And I had one more pink gin. Because why the fuck not? And I'll have one too. Because I fucking can.
Voltron Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Sadly, I am in bed and not drunk or drinking. Nice evening Greg! Cheers all!
Absorbine_Sr Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 In bed now too. Work calls in 6 hours. Night all.
Fitz Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 Sadly, I am in bed and not drunk or drinking. Nice evening Greg! Cheers all! There's always next time. And whoa, a Hendrick's pink gin is definitely interesting.
