Time for a drink. Who's in?

[millahh]

In:
-Left Hand nitro milk stout
-Harpoon Winter warmer

I use metric for everything (a career in chemistry will do that)...I have my own metric tape measure, and I convert all kitchen measurements to mL.

That's a strong load you have there.

Starting on my 2nd glass of Glenmorangie!

Sounds like an interesting one. It gets good reviews on Beer Advocate. Ever had Old Rasputin? If so, how do they compare? I know one is a milk stout and the other and Russian Imperial Stout

I'll see if I can find an Old Rasputin this weekend for comparison.  Keep in mind that my palate isn't great yet, but my immediate reflex was to describe it as Guiness-esque, but not as heavy on the malt, and overall a bit better.

Now having some foofy drink my wife wanted to make for her blog...gin, meyer lemon juice and champagne.

More alcohol.   The Russian Imperial Stout is sweeter.  Milk stouts have a smoothness to them

Yeah, super smooth.

Where's Coz?  From FB, seemed like he was getting an early start on the evening (unless he's spent and now asleep/snoring!)

[King Postwhore]

I'm about to join him. Damn old age.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

Beer, bitches. Amateurs, all of you.

[black_biff_stadler]

I thought you were having sexual intercourse based on your FB posts.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

With any luck, shortly. Following the progression of ALL the songs I posted, it was clearly done with some thought.

[Prog Snob]

I'm out of alcohol so tonight I'm tea-totalling it.

I noticed a distinct lack of Back Door Man.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

Correct

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

So the wife's office holiday party is tonight.  Free beer is my favorite.

[Prog Snob]

If I didn't have my daughter, I'd so be crashing it as the horny Santa.

I expect many posts here tonight.

Coz is going to be Schmeggled!!

Sounds like a finishing move in porn.

It's being held at a country club, so that'd be even more epic.

Nah, I think it'll be a light drinking evening.  Gotta dry out a little to be prepared for tomorrow night.

Reminds me more of the TV show Joey was auditioning for on Friends.  BAMBOOZLED!

In.

I'm going for a Sapphire martini as soon as I arrive home...one hour from now!

[millahh]

In.  Scotch old fashioned.

[King Postwhore]

Wife put in 2 6 packs from my Secret Santa.  Going to try them tonight.

[Podaar]

Sapphire martini, El Barto formula



That's how you do it right there, Bucko!

[millahh]

Round 2, Sazerac for the wife and I (while watching a Pixies DVD and waiting for our pizza to show up).  I'll toast Prog Snob's good fortune with the courts on this one.

BTW, since I'm a newcomer to the thread, what's EB's martini recipe?

[Podaar]

I started a thread about Martini's a few years ago. Those who like them listed their favorite formula. Mine and EB's were pretty close but he insisted a ratio of 1 part dry vermouth to 5 parts London dry gin was the best. We both agree that a lemon twist is the only thing that should touch this nectar.

I did a side by side comparison one weekend and decided that Barto was correct (as usual...bless his heart)

Thank you. That's much appreciated!   

And yes, lets hear this recipe. My father loves martinis so he might like to try it. 

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

In deep.

Troeg's Perpetual IPA. So good.

[King Postwhore]

In. 


Cigar City IPA named Jai Alai.  7.5% ABV's abdominal do damn drinkable. My Secret Santa rules.

I know my father has vermouth, but I'm not sure if he has gin. He usually makes his martinis with vodka. The gin sounds better though.
