Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

[Hat and Rehat]

Love Surly! The food is fantastic as well. That cap screams "summer" Eric!

Squirt!
We used to mix it with gin.
Of course we also drank things like sloe gin. And poured grenadine in perfectly good tequila.
What were we thinking?

Congratulations on the new VS! And enjoy the drink. I hear the 15 yr Vermont Estate Oak is really good. And the 6 yr PiggyBack, not so much.

I have only had this 10 year and the Farmstock No 2. I read mixed reviews on the Farmstock No 1 but they are tinkering with the formula for it each year. I liked the No 2. I just cracked open the 10 yr for the first time and it is very smooth. We just recently were able to get WP here.

I don't drink or keep a lot of Rye but I do like WhistlePig 12 & I like some of the High West blended Ryes although they are younger in age.

Tonight it was Dos Equis Ambers & some Tex Mex with friends, wearing a Stetson One-hundred. Elitist or not, I love these hats! Something I do for myself!

I was able to visit Monument Valley not too long ago, with my SunBody along as company. I will post more pics in other threads when I get them sorted out.

A Stetson Fifty 7X NOR & some cheap Margaritas.

Vintage tobacco brown Whippet and a Big Grove Zadar. Fantastic combination.

Still had Ken's Tatton Baird on my brain when I headed out for HH so I grabbed my Gannon I put the Dogbone in. Enjoyed a few Boulevard Brewing's Bob's '47 Octoberfest.

Stetson 7XCB OR with trolley & a few Ambers for HH. Back home now for the good stuff!

Coffee in a cap.

Beer in a Stetson.

Choices!

Best, Eric -

A missed opportunity indeed.

A missed opportunity indeed.

Sept 5th was also the birth date of a couple of my ancestors including my father. Earlier I charcoal grilled the best steak I've had in a long time plus some corn on the cob. Now I'm going to go deep into this bottle of JD Old No. 7 while I reminisce some.

Last of of the summer ale. It'll be ciders and Autumn beers 'til next year.

Yesterday I needed a wool cap, Guiness Stout and reading glasses to begin the slow roasting of meat on the grill.

Cheers.

Testing out this new steamer on my stingy royal whilst having a nooner of ‘farm to can’ Stone Aggro. Very tasty with a nice coconut finish.

How did you like that steamer?
I grabbed one at the $1.29/lb. Goodwill clearance outlet. It's still out in my van.

I did bring the beer in.

Haha priorities! Steamer was great on my dress shirts but just ok on the hats. Felt like my iron produced the same amount, maybe even more, of steam. Beers all gone though.

Next month in late October Sotheby's will auction off a $5M whisky collection being called "The Ultimate Whisky Collection". It will eclipse the 3,000 bottle Bonham collection auctioned in 2009.

Macallan Single Malts make up 70% of the collection anchored by a rare 1926 60 yr old in Macallan's star bottle with pre auction estimates of $425K - $545K. Others of interest include a 1919 Springbank bringing estimates of $121K - $170K; a 1937 Glenfiddich 64 yr old ($66K - $91K); first & second releases of Glenfiddich 50 yr olds ($18K - $24K); a 1937 Balvenie 50 yr old ($23K -$30K); two Mortlach 70 yr olds ($18K - $24K); and bottles from the Gordon & MacPhail Generations Series will be sold.

The owner is anonymous but said to be a wine collector also.
