Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

[Hurricane Jack]

Granite City's The Duke Pale Ale aged in Elijah Craig Bourbon casks. I'm really liking all these Bourbon aged microbrewed Ale's coming out.

Giving my Dunlap 4X OR clone a ride. I decided on a diamond crease but this hat is so soft that it won't hold a diamond with the love mound I like so much. I'm going to have to try & set it with some steam to see if it will hold, & smooth out the 3-cord just a bit. Wanted to wear it even though the job is not done.

That hat is nice! I agree, the bourbon cask aged ales are so good!

Thanks DD. I'm really torn between the diamond & just a center crease, no pinches. The center crease really looks "old school".

I usually prefer old school, but the diamond really looks good. It seems to highlight the softness of the felt.

I'm leaning that way too, if I can get the love mound to stick with some steam.

I've hung up my hat for the night & wrapping up the celebration of my dog's welping day with a few drams of Single Malt. Maybe watch a movie as she sleeps at my feet.

I like the center crease myself. And that Aberlour looks mighty nice...

We had a gentle rain over part of the night & it's supposed to be starting again this morning. Everything is dripping now so I grabbed up my fedoraized Akubra Cattleman. On my way for some legal advice, I just had to have a Scooter's Shooter.

Damn, that sounds nasty. Trying to disguise those grass clippings with fruit juice.

May as well buy some cheap soda pop, and be done with it!

I'd be tempted to get it just for the Vanagon on the can.

You would need to pour a half-pint of Everclear in with it to do that.

 

[Desert dog]

Now that, I might drink.

Got home less than 30 minutes ago. Tipping a glass of Founders Oatmeal Breakfast Stout after a long week of travels/work.

Cheers folks. Best, Eric -

Glad you're back home Eric, hopefully to stay for a while.

Thanks Jack. It is exciting to travel for the first couple of days. As you know, it is exciting to come home and hang with the dogs. I should have been a dog. Perhaps another life.

The Stout is helping me wind down and look forward to early tomorrow morning back at the gym.

Be safe sir, Eric -
