What Did You Drink Last Night?

[MisterCairo]

A bottle of Big Rock Brewery's Warthog ale (from Calgary, Alberta) followed by a can of Fuller's Porter. Both went down well while watching Ken Stott starring as John Rebus...

Russell's Reserve/rocks.

Tonight: Fourth Degree cocktail. Very nice.

Is that this one?:

1 oz gin
1 oz dry vermouth
1 oz apricot brandy
1 dash grenadine syrup
1 dash lemon juice

or this one?:
2 oz Plymouth gin
1 oz French vermouth
orange peel for garnish
lemon peel for garnish

The first one sounds ok to me. I might just have to make one of those sometime soon.

Chivas....15 year old.....mmmmmmmmmm good.

nothing, but, in some places Wild Turkey carries a -very- strong negative/redneck stigma.

of course i never heard that until i went to college. but, growing up between Trout Creek and Chipmunk Hollow (not kidding), you don't realize they are talking about you.....

my friends from West Virginia call Wild Turkey and Coke a "Turkey Sandwich" (properly pronounced "sammich" ).

I agree on both of your above points; thank you for the clarification and yes, I love me a Turkey Sammich!

"Yellow Tail" Shiraz, my first venture into Yellow Tail, rather a pleasant surprise and a rather spiffingly stylish, and distinctive label

If you're interested in the Yellow Tail shiraz, I highly recommend any shiraz by Penfolds. You won't be disappointed, although I think Yellow Tail is a little more peppery and has slightly more tannin. Penfolds is rounder and softer, but still definitely a good shiraz.

Tonight is the Cold Deck cocktail. I really like this one!

 

[rkwilker]

Buffalo Trace/rocks.

 

[Incorporeal13]

Kentucky Gentleman. And Dr. Pepper.
*yucky**yucky**yucky**yucky*

 

[Blackthorn]

Kessler's cheap Kentucky whiskey.

 

[MisterCairo]

A couple of very nice pints of Bass Pale Ale went down wonderfully!

 

[Arcot]

Just a simple Pink Gin with Tanqueray rather than Plymouth to use up the last of a bottle.

Ok, sounds good to me.
For the Cold Deck, you can't go wqrong with white creme de menthe.

too much...

 

[BobC]

I ran across a liter of pineapple rum we bought ten or eleven years ago in the Bahamas that had migrated unopened to the back of the liquor cabinet. I mixed some with OJ last night. Quite tasty stuff.

 

[anon`]

Nice, smooth pint of Deschutes Brewery Twilight Ale. Love the stuff, and will probably be getting another very soon.

Though, someone brought me a bottle of Grand Rubren Crème de Violette that I'm told makes wonderful Kirs. Had I some gin, it might be an Aviation night...

 

[High Pockets]

Jack and Coke,.......same as every nite.

 

[Ethan Bentley]

Starbucks Coffee Liqueur

 

[rkwilker]

Russell's Reserve/rocks

 

[JennyLou]

Too many pineapples and rum.

 

[Levallois]

12 year old Glenlivet that had been languishing in my parents liquor cabinet for at least 30 years. So does that make it a 42-year old Glenlivet? Whatever the age, it was smoooooth. I paired this up with a churchill ring Padron 1964 Anniversario cigar. Very relaxing.
