Anyone Else Drinkin'? prt2

[aMillionDreams]

I picked up some basil hayden's (thanks for the suggestion Ghosts), dogfishead's Midas Touch (finally bit the bullet, it's 15 bucks for a 4-pack), dogfishhead 90 minute IPA, and Spaten Oktoberfest.  oh yeah.

I've seen some Makers bottles recently that had blue over white wax on them. Anyone know why?

I've seen those for collector's editions around here but they're always for Uof Kentucky.  Do you have a local sports team that's blue and white?

DB, you gotta try MM.  But I have to say Woodford Reserve is my favorite, MM #2.  I'm doing the WR tour next. They'll actually let you buy a barrel full of whisky (144 liters, i believe).  expensive, but you get to choose your own selected single barrel from woodford.

You got some good taste, my man!

I think WR is my favorite bourbon as well, though Eagle Rare usually gives it a run for its money whenever I get a bottle of it.  For the most bang for your buck though, I dont think you can beat Eagle Rare. Its usually 10$ or more cheaper than WR

Ive only had MM a few times, and wasnt a huge fan. Maybe expectations? I actually thought it tasted more like Canadian whiskey than bourbon  ;D

Buffalo Trace is also very good IMO and is usually only 20$ for your typical sized bottle. (Buffalo Trace is actually the distillery that makes Eagle Rare)



Sadly im stuck drinking Early Times right now  ;D ;D :-/ :o :o 8-)

Where can I get my hands on some Buffalo Trace?  Haven't seen it anywhere in my neck of the woods and want some now? >:(

I thought it was readily available in almost every state. Maybe ask your local spirit distributor. They can usually tell you if its something the state stores either carry or dont. If they have Eagle Rare there, I dont see how they wouldnt have Buffalo Trace

Its good stuff though  :)

I like most Oktoberfests, but I wasnt a fan of Spaten's.

Cant go wrong with pretty much any Dogfishead though. Never had Midas Touch, and probably wont for awhile at 4$ a bottle  ;D

I felt like the 90 had too much barley so I got the 60 today. Need to get to Kahn's soon to pick up some homewrecker!

Dont know if they sell it at beer distributors, but the Alehouse 75 is my shit!! Its a mix of the 90 min and 60 min. Only place Ive ever had it was at the actual Dogfishead restaurant

Ahh, your language reminds me of what it is like to purchase spirits in PA.  I checked and MD does not sell any Buffalo Trace AT ALL.   >:( >:( >:(

Man, this Breckenridge 9.1 is starting to kick in... :)

Anyone try the 120 minute IPA?  It's also got a huge pricetag, but I think it's fucking fantastic.  It's a double ipa that's so hoppy it's almost sweet.  high alcohol content, proceed with caution.

Homewrecker is a double IPA by Bluegrass Brewing Company here in Louisville.  It's also damn good but impossible to find.

I think I might have tried the 120 Min IPA whenever I was at the restaurant and got a 4 beer sampler

Im a hophead so Ill try anything like that  :D

Gettin ready to chow down on some grub, then down some beverages. Not sure what route I want to go tonight. I have a selection of vodkas, gins, rum, some Red Hook IPA, Schlafly Pale Ale, and Guinness. I also I have a couple bottles of red I could dive into. Decisions decisions.

That's funny you mention the 120.  They had it at this place I went to lunch today.  It was $16 ish I think, per beer.  21% abv.  I was tempted.  I'll try it next time i don't have to go back to work.

Anybody ever try Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock?  Pretty tasty beverage!  ;)

Almost sweet?  I find the 120 to be uber sweet.  To me it's more of a dessert beverage, conceptually similar to either a Port or Muscat or something of the sort.

It is tasty but is syrupy and is difficult in quantities even exceeding a bottle, at least for me.  Having said that, you knock one back as you would your normal beer and  :o :o :o :o

It is!  I've only found it in one pub on tap.  No liquor stores that I've been to recently carry it.

I decided on a bottle of red. A little too sweet, but a large glass in, I'm already felling it
