The Monkey Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 Yeah, I told them to hold the gin, vermouth an olives. Tastes better that way.
Voltron Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 Oh, an extra dry Knob Creek martini. That's different.
Voltron Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 Macallan 18 Well that's not funny at all.
The Monkey Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 Irish bar. Typically shite whiskey selection.
Voltron Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 Stupid Irish fucks. Nothing wrong at all with Macallan 18, of course. Now, if they had this stuff, then they would be on the ball:
Dusty Chalk Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 When are you going to try any of those beers, Al? I'm dying to know if they've been ruined or not. Yeah, I know, that's probably off-putting, I wouldn't want to try a potentially skunked beer either. Maybe I should just shut up.
Voltron Posted February 25, 2011 Report Posted February 25, 2011 I really doubt they were ruined, but I have not been in Fairfax since I pulled them inside. I may be there during this weekend and will surely drink some or bring them back to SF. I will let you know.

Millionaire #1, right? Did you try it equal parts and not like it? More booze often works for me, and the dash of grenadine seems unnecessary, but I am just curious. And thirsty. Very thirsty. Very jealous of the two Dreadnaughts that have been quaffed today. I need to buy some from that shipping source. Edited February 26, 2011 by Voltron
luvdunhill Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 Indeed Al. The mods are Dr. Cocktail's.

I need to buy some from that shipping source. I haven't had one in a while. It is damn good. I think it was my last of 3.
Voltron Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 The Doc is kicking some ass in that one!

shellylh Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 Please fax some Michter's and some Cynar.
luvdunhill Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 My penance from stepping away from the friendly confines of Dr. Cocktail was three bad drinks. Do not use R&W in this drink. Do not use Gran Gala. That is my advice. Anvil Time Dulchin (modified) 2 oz pisco 1 oz apricot brandy (sub peach brandy) 1 oz fresh lime juice 0.5 oz Clement Creole Shrubb 1/2 tsp homemade grenadine Shake!
Voltron Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 Cin Cyn Cocktail 1oz Old Raj gin 1oz Cynar 1oz Cinzano (Perucchi rojo) 2 dashes orange bitters Lemon peel Stir and enjoy the Negroniness
shellylh Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 I was just about to make a Duchin until I read your post Marc. *Anvil/Dr. Cocktail time* Pegu Club (Anvil list) 2 oz Bluecoat gin (the last of my Bluecoat) 1/2 oz Senior Curacao 1/2 oz fresh lime juice 1 dash Regan orange bitters 1 dash Angostura bitters Barnum Cocktail 2 oz Old Raj Gin 1 oz R&W Apricot liqueur 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice 2 dashes Angostura bitters I liked the Barnum better but probably would only use 3/4oz Apricot liqueur next time.
