What Are You Drinking Tonight?

[BeerGeek]

Mike, anywhere from $75 - $85 a bottle, depending on which liquor store has it here. That latest bottle went for $80.

 

[treebilly]

Still $6.38 for a six pack of Busch latte tall boys

 

[flushcut]

Founders All Day IPA. I see why it's called all day its pretty low %age. Four 20 ozzes in and I am just starting to feel it. Booooo!

 

[stikine]

Step it up Flushcut ...9.6 percent

 

[treebogan]

I really like" Anchor Steam" sometimes you find it in the liquor store here.

I envy the choice you guys have in the states.Scandinavia is really a giant kindergarten.

 

[Jonny]

Long night shift. Kinda gross but it sure perks you up. Or makes you feel cracked out, depending on tolerance I suppose.

 

[stig]

Whereas in New Zealand you can buy alcohol anywhere.

 

[treebogan]

No just in general.

All the real talent left the region up untill the 60s,Scandinavias highest value export were the genes of those who had the gumption to leave I think.

Its really easy to stand out here in terms of ability,its a society that genuinely celebrates mediocracy.

 

[stig]

Pretty much, yes.

Is that why you are hanging out here?

 

[treebogan]

Yes absolutely.

That's more my speed! But I'm at a water park at the moment so the booze intake of the guests is monotered. I did buy a jar of 125proof apple pie for my night time consumption.

I brewed a Cech pilsner in November,I used 3 weeks for primary fermentation because I couldn't be bothered bottling it at the time.

It has really developed the taste at the detriment of the carbonisation,all in all it's pretty good.

The cold cellar at my house is helping things too.

Doing a bunch of estimates for friends for springtime work when the snow disappears, so each had a break for a beverage.

Started with this with an old friend who has about a week of work between he and his neighbors:





Next was an old co-worker, and after his day-long removal agreement we had one of these:





Now having this for dessert, a tasty 9.2%...

Went to the German place to get dinner for me and my mother, and picked this up on a whim. Pretty good...

 

[BeerGeek]

Yea John, that is a good one by them. I've had their Lager, Hefewiezen, Marzen and was introduced to their "Rauchbier" style (smoked hops & malt) with their seasonal Doppelbock. I can get them around me or anywhere from $4 - &7 for their ~16oz. bottles.

 

[BeerGeek]

Enjoyed this with dinner. A little hoppier than I expected, but still a quite tasty 8.7% ...

 

[stikine]

Hmmm, that offering has not showed up here yet.

 

[Jonny]

Jameson straight. Never gets old.

 

[stikine]

Stoli is on sale so I picked up some fixings for Bloody Mary. Cheers

 

[Burnham]

Don't forget the Worcestershire, Tabasco, and Pickapeppa. That is, if you want to make a really good Bloody Mary...

 

[stikine]

got 'em covered B except the Pickapeppa - what is that?

 

[Burnham]

Pickapeppa | From the Island of Flavor

Best flavor additive for chowders EVER, and kills it for bringing a Bloody Mary to full fruition.

I use the original, not spicy or the other variations of mango. Bet they are good, but the original is what I was raised on .

 

[stikine]

ah, gotcha. I've seen that in the stores, thx.

 

[Tree09]

Jameson and diet sprite? And yes i waited till noon damnit lol.
