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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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):
