luvdunhill Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 wut it's a cocktail. They have cool names
The Monkey Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 cafe au lait from the cafe downstairs. Sometimes I forget it's there.
morphsci Posted January 22, 2011 Author Report Posted January 22, 2011 So now that I almost have my life back there are a few cocktails I would like to mix up that call for Genever. Any favorite brands?
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Starting early. In St. Louis at Square One brewery and distillery. Sampled Hops Schnapps. Having a Single Malt Scotch Ale.

Voltron Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) Jim, I haven't tried that many but I do not love the Bols like I love Ransom for Old Tom style. I have had and liked Anchor's Genevieve but I'm not sure it is a traditional genever. I'm curious what you get and how you like it because I would like to get another option. Very cool Mike! But don't get too cool when you drinking outside later! Dinny, I think your problem last night was combining those two. That would not make a tasty cocktail! Edited January 22, 2011 by Voltron
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Standing in line to enter Cabin Fever. 18 beers await.
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 9 or 10 samples down. Nose is running but what a great day.
luvdunhill Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Randomly ran into a bottle of Handy. Then bought it.
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 Smoked Porter is my fav so far. Tastes like smoked ham and beer.
grawk Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 just finished sierra xXx, it was good. now some storm king
Absorbine_Sr Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Survived Cabin Fever. Smoked Porter, RyePA, Coffee Stout and Oatmeal Stout were my favorites. I managed to stay fairly non-drunk. Debbie, on the other hand... And if you're in St. Louis, visit Schlafly's Bottle Works. Big bar, big souvenir shop, big flavor.
Augsburger Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Entre Nous Sauvignon Blanc toasting the sunset. Opening a wax sealed wine bottle without causing an emergency room visit is a skill set that I am gradually acquiring. It's a good thing I haven't taken it upon my self to sharpen my Languiole.
morphsci Posted January 23, 2011 Author Report Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) Pink Gin Definitely better with Plymouth. As for the Genever, I am going to look for the Boomsma Oude and the Genevieve and do a comparison. Smoked Porter is my fav so far. Tastes like smoked ham and beer. Now who can argue with that!

I rest my case.
Voltron Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 For science! Nice going Jim. Now drinking a Green Flash Imperial IPA. Good stuff.
