The Official Whiskey And Spirits Thread.

I really enjoy Bulleit Rye mixed with lemonade.

Another go to drink is Crater Lake vodka mixed with Fresca

 

This is a delicious bourbon.

 

3 of my favs, well done gentlemen. Good luck finding them though in VA and MD now.

 

The Woodford is good- son, nephew and I enjoyed a bottle on a rooftop in Seattle of all places last year, but I'm mostly a beer guy. Yeungling lager is my favorite.

 

I think this current bourbon craze is much like the craft beer craze. I think 1/2 of the folks actually like the stuff, the other half say they do to impress their friends and/or because they think they should.

It took my a loooong time to appreciate sipping bourbon. I thoroughly enjoy "good to me" bourbon now with a few drops of bitters, some agave sugar, an orange peel and a block cube of ice. First one I started with was Buffalo Trace, then Bulleit (Rye and Bourbon) then Knob Creek then Woodford. I discovered a couple more I like doing these bourbon tastings.

 

I was sipping on that Woodford last night, 20 minutes from the distillery at Malone's...

 

This is a great value rye.

 

Trying to finish up a two liter of Pepsi and cracked this open as mixer. Not a fan....we bought it at the end of the distillery tour.

 

There's not enough Pepsi or Coke in the world to make that taste good

 

Amen. I tossed my glass and will give away the bottle to an unsuspecting sucker next weekend!

 

Am I the only bourbon/whiskey drinker who likes to switch from brown to clear in the warmer weather?

 

I am a Jim beam drinker, but NO WAY would I drink vanilla, nope.

 

100%…. That would have to be a hard ass girl drink…

 

May as well drink some 99bananas. Gross!

 

And that's why it's gone. I am not a huge Beam fan...but their distillery tour made for a good day date....and we picked up some different varieties while we were there...

 

Three problems here. Actually 4.
1. Pepsi.
2. A 2 liter, if I bought you a 2 liter of beer, would that be OK?
3. It was already open.
4. Vanilla flavored bourbon = Nasty! God awful nasty!
