Beverages and Blades - Traditional of Course

Bulleit Rye Old Fashioned, no sugar. This one also happened to be "smoked." Served in a glass box full of smoke, which actually imparted a pretty interesting flavor to the drink.
Interesting. I like Bulleit bourbon, will have to try the rye. Never had an old-fashioned without sugar. I use a sugar cube and a couple of dashes of angostura bitters. Sometimes I dispense with the fruit.
Cheers!
 
I picked up a "variety 12-pack" from Shiner when I got groceries last week. It contains 3 types of Shiner beer, 2 of which are new to me. But the third type of beer, Shiner Toasted Amber Lager, is one that I had for the first time almost a year ago in a different 12-pack of 3 kinds of Shiner. The Toasted Amber Lager has nothing about which I'd complain, but neither does it have any characteristics that make me unusually enthusiastic about it. Good for a lager, but not a great beer IMHO.

Killer canoe, and that beer sounds like it might be right up my alley. Going to keep an eye out for that one. You’d be proud of me Gary, I’ve consumed way more Porters and stouts this year than I have in years. 🍺😄

Thanks for the canoe compliment, Todd. :)
I'm ALWAYS proud of you, whatever you're drinking, but now I'll envy you, too, since you're ingesting more porters and stouts! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

Had one of these last night:

Time to go out for my 3rd snow-shoveling session today. I should get all the snow moved where it needs to go with 4 sessions, but I'm not sure I'll have a 4th session in me today. :eek::(
