mikeymad Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 don't feel like too many samples tonight - so I guess I will drink.. (big glass is out) --> Macallan 1990/19yo 43% The Whisky Trail Bottling
shellylh Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Redbreast 15yr I don't know much about port, but you should consider when those more recent vintages are supposed to be at their "peak" because K&L indicates some of them are "best after 2020" or "projected to mature between 2030-2055." Hmm, something to think about. I definitely don't have any proper place to store them.
Absorbine_Sr Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Redbreast 15yr Note to self - buy a bottle of that. Enjoying my fave - a Manhattan. Edited December 30, 2011 by Absorbine_Sr

Salt Peanuts Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Not actually drinking as I've already spat it out, but just had an apple cider that had gone bad. I had bought the damn things on Monday night and I hadn't even opened it yet. Edited December 31, 2011 by Salt Peanuts
morphsci Posted December 31, 2011 Author Report Posted December 31, 2011 Unnamed Drink #1 2 oz Sazerac 18 Rye 3/4 oz Cocchi Barolo Chinato 1/2 oz Blume Marillen Apricot Eau-de-Vie 1 dash Bitter Truth Grapefruit Bitters Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Express a lemon twist and drop in. Nice! I think I will call it The TriBeCa.
shellylh Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 Margarita (aka Imperial Daisy) face-off: Mandarine Napoleon vs Creole Shrubb 2 oz Casa Noble Reposado 1 oz orange liqueur 1 oz lime juice Both were a little too limey for my taste but the Creole Shrubb was far superior IMO. Earlier, I tried sipping the MN and wasn't very fond of the smell.
emelius Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 DFH olde school on draft dangerous:)... Cutters Half Court IPA....new brewery outta Bloomington, Indiana...
Aura Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 How is it Jeff? Good to see another offering I can check out when I visit my sister.
emelius Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 I think I agree w/a fellow untappd member...it has an almost citrus taste to it despite not having any citrus components...it's not half bad, but I'd like to try it on tap to hopefully see/taste what they were going for...
mikeymad Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 to lazy to take a new pick... Juslyn 2010 Sauv Blanc
Voltron Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 MN is Brandy based and much better in other drinks. I like Jim's concoction. Now I'm having my third Lagunitas IPA at the Fillmore before Trombone Shorty. Cheers on new years eve eve!
