Beverages and Blades - Traditional of Course

Still a little off my booze after the virus I had recently, but I thought I'd tip a glass of stout this evening ;) Have a great weekend folks :thumbsup:

Lol no sir, but best believe the eggnog always is! What would be the best alcohol to spike cider with? Rum or bourbon, I imagine? I’m going to have to experiment with that, I’m surprised the thought hasn’t crossed my mind before

Maybe vodka? Seems like the rum and bourbon flavours would overpower the cider.
 
@Ryanck93 I like Sailor Jerry for rum cider. I just mess with the portions to taste. Your idea of doing a little bit of experimenting sounds fun too.

Proper Twelve is a pretty darn good Irish Whiskey IMO. It is Conor McGregor's brand. This bottle was a gift from a friend and I've just about found the bottom.

Thanks mate, looks like a good day out :) I generally avoid cloggies, but did enjoy the Henderson's Relish Dancers I bumped into on the Quest - Sheffield Steel Rapper :thumbsup:




These girls really ought to hire someone to make a decent video :rolleyes:
 
It is interesting (to me) that I am more familiar with Irish whiskeys and Scotch but less familiar with more American styles. My wife and I hosted a whiskey tasting party for her birthday over the weekend and one of the attendees brought this bottle of rye from a local distillery. (One of the benefits of hosting a tasting is that we get to keep all of the unconsumed whiskey afterwards :p)

Still trying to sort out the different things I experience with this Rye but it isn't unpleasant. I think I will need to try another rye or three to develop more of a baseline for what to expect.

Christmas tree up, time to kick back. Carried the #73 for the first time in a while.

Fantastic pic, Taylor, that I think is this year's trigger to get me in the Christmas spirit! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup:
That stout is pretty seasonal too, although I'm not a huge coconut stout guy myself (based on the one I show below), and have no idea what the "rye" in the name does. ;):thumbsup::rolleyes:
And I don't see how you keep yourself from carrying that ravishing 73 every day for the rest of your life!!! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup::D
Congrats and best wishes for the impending addition to your family! :):thumbsup::thumbsup:
