@eisman
As a Kentucky boy I can appreciate that bottle of Booker.!! I also favor stag handled knives, so I like everything in your Photo.

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:

I'm not sure what I like better: the stout, the knife, or the opener. They all look great!

We put ours up a week ago at the request of our 2 year old little girl. Congratulations! Best wishes to the momma and little girl.

Little girls have a way of getting us to do their bidding. My daughter told me we are getting a tree this Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.
I guess she remembers a few years ago we moved out of our old house just before Thanksgiving, but couldn't move into the new house until a few days before Christmas. We camped out for a month in my son's new house (he hadn't moved in yet, but was getting married January 3 and let us stay there). Anyway, we went out Christmas Eve to get a tree. Not much to be found. Ended up with a small, what she calls a "Charlie Brown" tree. She said never again!

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:

We usually do, but my wife is almost ready to pop with a lil girl any day. We wanted to get it done early this year.

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.

A belated Happy Birthday to your missus Dylan, a whisky tasting sounds like a great way to celebrate :) :thumbsup:

I have been bought Irish whiskies with glamorous sounding Gaelic names, and they supposedly have a history going back 500 years or whatever - however they only started making whisky again a couple of years back! :rolleyes:

Hmm, this sounds awfully familiar. I feel like there's another industry where this same sort of thing happens frequently, put I can't quite put my finger on what it is......

A picture from last night - a 1982 Pomerol and a 1982 Böker whittler with Thuya burl covers. A good year for both.

LOL! :D :thumbsup:
 
New Krein bushcrafter and a new ale for me. I'm a Amber ale fan and this Bell's Amber is really good. The 1812 Amber ale glass is from the Sacket's Harbor Brewing Co., another tasty Amber.
Really paired well with some homemade apple pie and ice cream.
