What Are You Drinking Tonight?

[stikine]

Looks like the alcohol is an additive. As per normal.

Spent time with with various friends the past few evenings, and we all had a few. No pics, but here's the list of what we all had:

Sam Adams Chocolate Bock (real tasty; dessert beer)
Einstök Icelandic Toasted Porter
Sam Adams Holiday White Ale
Wasatch Polygamy Porter
Wasatch Devastator Double Bock
Cypress Brewing Island Cruz Coconut Stout (one my coconut loving friend bought; and yes, you can finally taste the coconut!)
Ayinger Altbairisch Dunkel
Mickey's Big Mouth Malt Liquor (rehashed some fond, drunken memories from our youth with these)
Aecht Schlenkerla Eiche Doppelbock
Samuel Smith Organic Pale Ale
Jack's Abby Red Tape Amber Lager
Jack's Abby Shipping Out of Boston Amber Lager

Jon, if tea like that floats your boat, Happy Holidays to you while you enjoy it. The thought of it just doesn't do it for me.

Had a Forgotten Boardwalk Castle Morro Smoked Porter with dinner. Mmmmm good!

It's not really candy cane tasting. Maybe a little kinda sorta, but it's really just a mint dominated herb tea. Requires the power of suggestion to taste candy cane. Haven't been in a big alcohol mood this year. That's ok. Means the stuff I bought will last longer.

Shared one of these w/my occupant last night w/dinner. Started bringing back bad flashbacks....

 

[stikine]

These are on sale currently.

That looks better than what I had...

I bought it last year, and just opened it tonight. Drinking season ended last year before I got to it, so I saved it for this season.

Drinking season is year round in Alaska. That takes the pressure off from having to finish or start something. 😁😁

From Derby Tasmania, mountain biking Mecca. Quite nice with loaded fries on the side.

A German brewery has started brewing this after the original recipe.
All profits go to support Ukraine.
So one can get drunk and do a good deed at the same time.
Great idea!

If the beer had been good, it would have been an even better idea.

 

[Cobleskill]

One would think all German beer would be good.

 

[stig]

Nope.
Southern German beer is good.
The Northern stuff is too hoppy and thin.
For my taste, anyway.
I'm sure the Northern Germans think differently.

Trying different things again. Figure John will like the dinosaur background. 🙂

How is it? I've found I'm not crazy about acai. Kinda tastes soapy to me.

 

[stikine]

Seems neutral to me. It's kinda like not drinking while drinking if you get my drift.

Those mini bottles of Fireball Cinnamon don't actually contain whiskey; lawsuit alleges misleading labeling

Fireball Cinnamon doesn't contain whiskey and the alcohol content prompted a mislabeling lawsuit against Fireball's maker, Sazerac Company, Inc.

Too funny. I remember teasing John about one of these bottles that showed up in one of his pictures.

 

[lxskllr]

My bottle has Schnookum whiskers in it :^D

Two things are funny about this. Someone's getting precious over fireball, like the "whisky" part is even important to it, and that you can sell it some places using a trivial hack, by not making it from corn? I'm not clear on the difference between distilled corn beer and distilled barley beer.

Had these the past few days before Junior went back to school (the Harpoon was a tasty cream ale; part of their holiday can pack):



Enjoying a Jersey Girl Pocket Full of Porter right now.

How was the dopplebock? I don't have them often but usually like them.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Nothing officer.


Sober as a bird.
