2008 cotes du rhone

Rhones are a win especially with a little age on them.

For me-----

Hah, first good beer I've ever seen in that kind of packaging. Bet it cost a few pennies though.

$40 + tax in Indy...$48 seems to be the norm in Illinois although a place there called Pelly's had them (briefly i'd imagine) for $30!...

Eau de Cookie III -- sam smith's...you know? It's weird what works & what doesn't w/Ed'C...I still like Obovoid & Southern Tier best.
Incorrect, that was actually IV...III was the Mendocino. Tonight, V will be Highland Oatmeal Porter, but right now I am drinking the last can of Ten Fidy. This is easily top 10 imperial stout material right here. Easily. Very quaffable.

(quafs)

Yes, very.

I mixed up a beautiful batch of Sidecars and was about to shake it up when a call came in. I tried juggling a portable phone whilst shaking and talking, but right when I tried to put the Boston shaker on the table it split apart and phone and cocktail crashed down my leg and onto the floor. Fuck. Lucky I didn't open the G-R XO like I had considered. After swabbing and cleaning I mixed another round and knocked off a healthy one. Now having a Sierra Nevada Tumbler.
