What are you Drinking ?

[Muffin Man]

Black Russian, a handful for movie night

[RAGER]

A thimble of Four Roses.

Whatcha watching?

[Muffin Man]

Did Jor el's Star Wars Machete Order assignment. I watched the order 2-5, 1 being the original. Movies from the library, free! I need to get Star Wars 1 and re-watch. I've never been a fan so it's more of an movie-buff obligation, to me. I'm fickle.

Lagavulin 16 neat

Wait a second. 3:10 am. Are you ok okay?

[Muffin Man]

Was up like a b-u-z-z-e-r after driving I-5 for 8hrs back and forth Tacoma-Everett. 4hrs of it in stop-and-go. I meant to buy The Frog. Just threw it in the cart at coscto. Not a good value versus the other.

Oh yeah I'm fine. Hey how you doon?

[RAGER]

I 5 up in them parts can get fu fu fu fucked! 

Got the next 5 days off starting tomorrow for my birthday. 50.  Rare Sunday off so I'll be hitting Mikkeller in Portland.  Then gonna be in Astoria a bit having some beers and some good times. Then prepping for thanksgiving and doing that then back to work. So it'll be a good week.

About a month and a half away from tropical island time.

Haitian clairin (aka sugarcane moonshine) courtesy of Patrick St. Surin and his 25 acres of family land, his trusty diesel-powered cane macerating machine, and his long 2-weeks of funkdefying fermentation to get to this most recent Milot bottling.

If you'd have that sent over to Astoria we could all meet up

[RAGER]

Today?  Anything I get my hands on. I've quite a bit to choose from. Then I gotta go straight and narrow for a bit.

[renfield]

I really want to get shitfaced tonight, but I will resist. Probably.

[RAGER]

I make mocktails through the week. Some lime fizzy soda, ginger beer, and cranberry splash. Maybe a couple drops of bitters. On ice of course.

[RAGER]

My best bud has been off the sauce for about a month now. He's lost some weight and my wife complimented him on his skin. I wouldn't dare talk to another man about his skin.

[RAGER]

Had a rum toddy with the Foursquare spiced rum. Yum.

[RAGER]

Had an Aldersbacher kloster weisse dunkel yesterday.

[RAGER]

Mogli barrel aged porter from Caldera brewing Ashland Oregon.

Also that bottle opener was given to me by my girlfriends father when I was 16.

   A wee tipple of Glendalough Double Barrel



Pretty yummy. I rarely if ever drink Irish Whiskey but this one is very nice.

"Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey is a single grain Irish whiskey, initially matured in American bourbon barrels before enjoying a finishing period of six months in Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks. This comes bottled at 42% ABV, brought down to this strength by Wicklow mountain water. A rather tasty release presented by Glendalough, rich in vanilla, caramel, Christmas spices and dried fruit notes.


Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: A creamy, malty nose begins with rich vanilla, white chocolate and buttery fudge. Notes of cooking apples, white grapes, marzipan icing and toasted oak form in the backdrop.

Palate: Succulent caramel, salty melted butter and crème anglaise provide a thick, decadent sweetness with a fruity underlay from blackberries and marmalade.

Finish: Polished oak and a hint of wood spice linger."

[RAGER]

Sounds delish. I use to put away a bit of Jameson and Tullamore Dew back in the day.

[Muffin Man]

This stuff is goood. $45CDN 750ml. Light and buttery on the pallet plus a famously round zing taking it in. An elegant slow sipper with multiple flavors. One of the best sippers I've ever had ever.  Jamison I've had very little but once a bottle of Jamison 1780, good memories of it.

Sour for festivus

[Muffin Man]

Spearmint resin smothered by an iodine Kelp bomb
Giant broken edged velvet green leaf blanketing a hammock-riiide
Looong nettle-note goodbye to the Acrtic iceberg permafrost

Cold splash to an inky resin commitment
