Drink of Choice

calldoctoday It’s manufactured by Cleveland Whiskey 35 miles away.
zbigjeff Lucky You. We have a new distillery a few miles away in Headland I have been dying to try or at least see what they have. Every time we drive by there just about on the way back from an inspection I am tempted to stop, but my son is never in the mood unless they are closed. Might gonna have to do something about that tonight when that Ham Bean soup is ready.

GWG8541 The Remus will definitely warm your cockles when you get home from a chilly game.
zbigjeff Well, you don’t want to freeze your brass monkeys, gotta keep that antifreeze going.
-
zbigjeff Interesting but hard pass.
HerbcoFood I can only have a short one each time. It is aimed at the “lighter” drinker for sure and has proved true in our small groups. I have it in my arsenal so every taste is included in the good times. Those same people curl up and run when the 120 proof is opened.

“It’s Finally Friday” as the possum used to sing

I stopped by my local store to resupply on Tullamore DEW for Irish Whiskeys, and JD Tennessee Fire for some hot cider. While I was there, I saw this Remus single barrel. Never had it, but heard good things. I’ll have to wait until later to try it, Im heading to a HS football game.

Hmm. Weird. Just grabbed a Remus a couple of hours ago. Not tried yet. Great minds…

PapaSop Seeing that reminds me of a quote from the movie Big Daddy, “Yes Uncle Remus the catfish are huge.”

HerbcoFood That is a sweet bottle for sure. Hopefully, the inside was just as cool.

GWG8541 nice pick up. I’m always a sucker for the gift sets. Almost grabbed some knob creek 100 today because I liked the accompanying rocks glasses.

Surg thats ironic, I picked that one up this summer. It’s worth getting. I had bought many of the Tennessee Fire gift sets over the years. They are the same price as buying the bottle by itself, so some are gifted and I am also working on an endless supply of JD shot glasses.

PapaSop that is a great pickup right there. Yours looks a little hotter than mine. If my eyes are working, thats a 114 compared to my 108. I think we will both be doing just fine with these.

zbigjeff It actually is a super sweet tequila. As I have matured, I have found spending money on tequila is worth it’s weight in gold.

calldoctoday The brass monkeys will be kept very warm with the arsenal. I thank you for your concern.

GWG8541 That is a nice bottle that everyone can enjoy. The 120 proofs are a tough sell unless there’s a DD in the group.

HerbcoFood Glad you could find something that lights up your cockles and that is still a SWEET bottle.

Choices what do I want to have today for a choice of beer? Found two choices, I really wanted to crack the Arrogant B*stard Ale since it’s been aging for quite a few years but the Men’s Room Original Red has been a go to since it’s locally produced and was brewed for the radio show I listen to at KISW. As you can see by the missing cap, what won out today. Elysian makes pretty decent beers.

johnsbrewhouse that bottle is definitely an interesting design. AB ale is always a good choice. I can get it here, but have never seen the one you poured.

GWG8541 You would probably enjoy the Men’s Room red, it’s got hops in the nose and in the taste but well balance too. It has our west coast hop feel and tastes. The AB is an original bottle from one of their first batches and has been collecting dust hidden away for a rainy day. When I used to do beer judging with the AHA, I used to rathole some of these premium beers to see how they would age over the years, like the barley wines I have. I pop the top shortly and check it out and compare it to what todays tastes like.
