Nice. I kept it light because I have work right now. So just two Heinekens, a Blue Moon Chai Spiced Beer, a glass of Sicilian wine, and some unexpectedly strong egg nog.

I love this thread.

Me too. This is where all the cool kids hang out. Or maybe just the degenerate drunks. Who the fuck knows...

I brought some leftovers with me to work. I'm not sure if you saw the dessert photo I put up on Facebook. Besides that, I brought some stuffed shells, meatballs, sausage, pig skin, and pig neck.

That 1792 Bourbon looks right up my ally Coz.

After my last post yesterday, I ended up having a couple glasses of Angel's Envy (I burned my hand taking the turkey out of the oven and I needed the pain reliever). After dinner, while watching the Packer game, my son-in-law talked me into giving up my secrets to martini making. We had a couple.

I'm sticking with virgin coffee this morning. It's going to be hours before I can consider posting in this thread again.

The 1792 is excellent. Not my preferred choice, but I like trying new ones. The Hooker's House is finished in old pinot noir barrels. Gives it an interesting taste.

Drinking some Yuengling lager.

Had a lovely Chimay Blue, a Belgian Beer this afternoon.
A glass of nice Bordeaux at dinner, I love French reds.
Chilling on the couch now with a glass of Glenlivet Nàdurra (really tasteful!) before going to my local bar, where I'll be DJ'ing tonight (first actual DJ job ever). Tonight's going to be amazing. Might have a couple of more.

You're on quite a roll with the Scotch, Jingle. Just how you roll?

Pretty much. Wine every so often. Beer with the appropriate foods (wings, pizza etc..), and on a hot summer day. It's winter now ... need something to warm the soul.

Waiting for a pizza at work and having a coors, it's a nice quiet sunday.

Sir GuitarCozmo · « **Reply #127 on:** November 29, 2015, 03:41:59 PM »

I'm in. Yuengling on tap on my porch. Booyah. Some bourbon later while we watch Amazing Race.

ReaperKK · « **Reply #128 on:** November 29, 2015, 05:21:09 PM »

Still drinking Sir Coz. . . . although I may end the night early.

Sir GuitarCozmo · « **Reply #129 on:** November 29, 2015, 06:06:35 PM »

Excellent. Drink on! No rocks in the bourbon tonight, just a splash of water. Thinking I may prefer this.

Home in time for the Pats game with beer I brought home from Atlanta.

I was at my parent's house for dinner yesterday. My father had a bottle of Pinch which I wasn't too crazy about but it did the trick.

That's a proper whiskey. How do you like the Blue Label, Jingle? I think I'll never spend that much money on a blended whiskey.
Anyway, I think I'll pour me one of these tonight:

Johnnie Blue has a special place in my heart. I was never a fan of scotch until my early 30s when someone poured me some - so, it really is the scotch that popped my cherry. For years, that's the only scotch I drank. Then I deviated, and started drinking single malts about 6-7 years ago. When it comes to a blend, I'll only drink high-end... the $40-$50 bottles are shit. I can't stand Gold or lower (Platinum is probably, but I've never tried it), Ballantine's, J&B, Chivas Regal or anything like that. There isn't much of a selection in the liquor stores here, so I usually just keep it safe, and go Blue when it comes to a blend... at least when I'm drinking it straight. Mixed drinks - I'd only use a blend.

What does blue label cost over there, then? Over here it's close to (the equivalent of) 200 dollars. I don't think I'll ever spend that on a bottle of whiskey.

I've gone upmarket myself though, I do have more money to spend on drinks. I enjoy a Chivas in a bar, but at home, I'd love to take my take and drink a un-peated, non chill filtered preferably cask strength single malt. But I've never had whiskey of over 70 dollars on a bottle.

JW Blue is around $250 here.
