Dusty Chalk Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I have to say, I have mixed feelings. If they're allowed to run like a wholly owned subsidiary, and they don't do anything evil, I'll probably continue to buy them.So I ended up wearing that glass...Why? Is it a caps thing? Is it red? Srsly, how is it? (The drunk glass, not the worn glass.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the heads up on the mikkeller koppi, I am a sucker for a good coffee beer. Two weeks ago they had FFF hells black intelligencer which I unfortunately missed out on.

shellylh Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Shared a bottle of Brewdog/Mikkeller Divine Rebel earlier today. It was interesting but I don't think I would want to drink more than a couple of ounces myself. Ok, so I didn't really like it, I guess that is what I am trying to say. Never got a chance to toast Jim last night so I doing it now with some Parker 27yr. Congrats Jim! I do like the Parker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvlgato Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Now that goose island is sold to anheuser do you think they will still be able to maintain the same high quality, especially their more rare beers? EDIT: next time people are in town we should coordinate hitting up the goose island brewpub as it is quite nice. A local pub I sometimes frequent abruptly dropped all GI beers because of the Anheuser sale. Didn't ask for their reasons, but wonder if the distribution of GI beers to other pubs was affected. Or concern for quality? I'll have to ask them next time I'm there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Nice Zombie Shelly. It really is s nice cocktail, just so many ingredients. The Leap Year cocktail I made a little while ago was not so good. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Now drinking a Pegu Club from the Regan recipe. This is much better, but I continue to think Junipero gin does not work well in sours and some other kinds of cocktails. Anyway, here it is: Pegu Club 2oz gin 1oz triple sec (Cointreau) Dash angostura bitters Dash orange bitters Shake, double strain and garnish with lime peel.

Voltron Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 OK, one more. Old Fashioned Whiskey Cocktail. I almost went for the Parker 27 given Jim and Shelly having drams this week, but chose the Eagle Rare 17 instead. Tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Recently tried the Alamos malbec -- outstanding for $7-9, much better than the funky llama, this one can be judge without taking into account its price, nicely balanced -- and the Catena malbec -- meh, either bottle was off, or it's not very good, something nasty about it. Also revisited the Norton Reserva -- my suspicions were right, it's still one of the better ones, but that first bottle was the best. This last bottle wasn't superior to the rest of the herd by a goodly margin, like the first one was. I suspect my goddamn allergies are making my tastebuds more fickle than usual.

jvlgato Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) Hello high end alcohol cognoscenti -- my wife is in New Orleans and just asked me if I wanted her to 'bring back anything specific from New Orleans, but nothing with tits' (her words). I'm thinking there must be some nice booze down there that might be hard to obtain elsewhere. Any suggestions?
