morphsci Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Jim, this is very nice, just perfect. Yes. Yes it is. Anvil # 97 Whiskey Skin The Anvil list calls for Scotch but I used Irish Whiskey to compare to the Toddy since the only difference is the lemon rind aka skin. (Use small bar-glass.) Take 1 lump of white sugar. 1 small wine-glass of Irish whiskey. 1 small piece of lemon-peel. First rinse the glass with hot water, put in the sugar, fill the glass half-full of boiling water, add the whiskey and stir. Serve with a spoon. No you are not having Deja-vu. It is pretty much the same drink as the toddy with the addition of the lemon rind. There is no spoon. Edited January 3, 2011 by morphsci
luvdunhill Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 The Bebbo Cocktail 1.5 oz gin 1 oz lemon juice 0.5 oz honey 2 tsp juiced orange Stir without ice (yup missed that the first time, heating the honey the second time) until honey dissolves then add ice and shake. Strain and serve with a cherry.
morphsci Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Posted January 3, 2011 Anvil # 93 Tom & Jerry This is not simple. (Use punch-bowl for the mixture.) Take 12 fresh eggs.

Fitz Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 DFH Miles Davis' Bitches Brew Good, but not great. I was hoping for a little something more from this.
shellylh Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Marc and Jim, those drinks look awesome. I especially like Jim's Tom and Jerry.
Fitz Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Jim has definitely convinced me to try this whole mixology business after that Manhattan in a Box.
morphsci Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Posted January 3, 2011 I told you it was a recruiting tool
Fitz Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Heh, so devious. Once I get some spare cash, I'm so going to stock up the liquor cabinet so I can start trying out different cocktails. Still, so many thanks again for that Jim; it was so disproportionate to what I gave you. Edited January 3, 2011 by Fitz
Dusty Chalk Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 DFH Miles Davis' Bitches Brew Good, but not great.Incorrect. It is great. I was hoping for a little something more from this.That part could well be true.
Fitz Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Incorrect. It is great.That part could well be true. I liked it more as it warmed up slightly, but it still didn't really do much for me. It's definitely a solid brew, but for a limited release I expected more. If it was one of their year-rounds the story would be different.
Dusty Chalk Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Naw, I'm just giving you crap, you're entitled to like and dislike what you like...and dislike. I think we've long since established that we have different tastes in beers. For the record: the ultimate count after all was said and done with Yoo-Hoppy-Hoo: One bomber to 5 singles. So what is that, 22 to 60 oz? So more like 1:3? Eau de Cookie was 1 single to one bomber, so 12 oz to 22, or closer to 1:2. I've got a Southern Tier Oat in the fridge for Eau de Cookie II.

Iron_Dreamer Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Marin Brewing's Mt. Tam Ale, getting Edwood geared up for February.
NightWoundsTime Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Opened a couple bottles of the French beer last night. Nothing at all special about them, other than the noteworthiness of something so bland being in such an attractive package. Bottle conditioned too, with the biggest yeast trub I've ever seen. After that went with a couple people to Poor Paul's Pourhouse, the most whimsical dive in Tallahassee. Won big twice on the "wheel of fortune" after paying for our first pitcher of Yuengling. Ended up with all three of us reasonably well lubricated for something like $15 (tip included). Oh and there was free pizza. I love college bars. Edited January 3, 2011 by NightWoundsTime

There's a reason the French are known for their wines.... Near my in-laws is a dive called Dick's Pourhouse. We should do a tour of bars called Pourhouse some year.
boomana Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Came home from work sick, and was in the mood for fresh squeezed orange juice. I'm drinking it, but it wasn't worth the effort to make as the oranges I bought last week aren't very tasty.
