emelius Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 ahh...thanks...so maybe give the bottle away & keep the barrel:)...or find out who makes the barrels for them...
morphsci Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Or age the rye in the barrel and then use it for beer. I think they have just the barrel for sale on their web site. Edited March 29, 2011 by morphsci
tyrion Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 picked up & drank 'nother Gnomegang...had some more Nugget Nectar (down to what's probably my last bottle for this year)...went to a local liquor store to investigate the rye situation...no luck on Van Winkle...they expect to get more 20, 23 & rye in but they don't know when (not a good indicator)...haven't seeen any bulleit rye...they did have some pricy Rittenhouse 23 Rye...& I'm wondering if anyone here can comment on Wasmund's Rye as it includes a mini-barrel for aging your own Whiskey:)...i'm tempted to get it for aging stouts:)... Rittenhouse Rye 23 is very good and should be less than PVW 20 and a lot less expensive than PVW 23.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK "Due to the recent change in Texas Laws, we are no longer able to ship to Texas." :angry: :angry: :angry: That fucking sucks, Shelly. I have 6-bottle shippers and would be happy to hook you up if you have an order of 4-6 bottles.
shellylh Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 That fucking sucks, Shelly. I have 6-bottle shippers and would be happy to hook you up if you have an order of 4-6 bottles. Thanks for the offer Al, might take you up sometime in the future. I am ok for now on the Torani Amer but will need to stock up next time I am Cali to make sure I can keep sippin' the Liberals. Maybe Rendezvous will make its way here someday (I probably have enough rye and bourbon to keep me happy for now). Just sucks that Texas has such stupid laws!
jp11801 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Beau's Winter Brew made with what taste like a shitload of coffee. Cask ale that taste like a lightly roasted cup of coffee. Very nice Toronto is a great beer town
luvdunhill Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 That fucking sucks, Shelly. I have 6-bottle shippers and would be happy to hook you up if you have an order of 4-6 bottles. yes, it does suck... I am planning on grabbing that Rittenhouse Mike. I had one sip and really enjoyed it.

luvdunhill Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Wanted to try the Ritt 100 in a Sazerac. Its nice!
Absorbine_Sr Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Had an Eagle Rare 17 earlier, now a Redbreast 12. And a few beers in between. Life is good.
morphsci Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Posted March 30, 2011 ^^^ NICE! ^^^ Having a Martini (Special) Cocktail that Marc was so kind to remind me of earlier.

morphsci Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) A Martinez Cocktail 1 1/2 oz Ransom Old Tom Gin 3/4 oz Carpano Antica Sweet Vermouth Scant teaspoon Luxardo Maraschino Dash Regan's Orange Bitters Dash Boker's Bitters Stir with ice to chill and strain into a cocktail glass. Squeeze lemon peel over glass. Add a (preferably luxardo or toschi) cherry if you so desire. This is definitely a drink where the maraschino works. Also superior to the special Martini (not that it did not disappear into my digestive tract). Edited March 30, 2011 by morphsci

luvdunhill Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Hot Buttered Rum 2 oz Rum 3 sugar cubes 1 tbsp Butter Hot Water Warm a mug or glass, and then add sugar and about 1.5 oz of hot water to the mug. Stir sugar and water until sugar is well-dissolved. Add rum and then fill top the mug with hot water. Add butter and stir until butter is completely melted. Mojito Agricole 2.5 oz rhum 24 mint leaves 2 sugar cubes 1 oz lime juice 4 oz soda Place mint leaves in bottom of glass an muddle with lime juice. Add rhum and stir. Add crushed ice. Add soda water and garnish with mint leaves. I was aiming towards a more sour, not as sweet mojito. I succeeded. This rhum isn't as earthy as other agricoles, it works well here.
Aura Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Water. Dagnabbit, I left all my beer at the girlfriend's!
mikeymad Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Norton Malbec Mendoza Reserva 2007. Drinking one of those
jvlgato Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Water. Dagnabbit, I left all my beer at the girlfriend's! Party at Allison's!
Dusty Chalk Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 King Crimson -- I definitely like it. It's an imperial amber, and hence, hoppier than I would usually take to, but...I actually think it's more bitter than hoppy, but it's that clean bitter/hoppy that I like so much in for example, My Antonia, Sierra Nevada XXXth Anniversary Barleywine, and the Terrapin/Left Hand IPA collaboration thingy. But it's a little on the thin side, so I doubt I'll get it again.
