Dreadnaught. My man Peter @ FFF always pours me the adult portion instead of the half-pint. Cheers everyone!

Hang in there Brent. Yesterday, went to a friend's who home brews. Sampled 5 of his beers and really liked his Belgian Trippel. Today is the adopted as usual and then maybe drinks on the deck. This week coming up is Debbie's birthday week. Yes, it takes all week... Going to see the Senna documentary Wednesday, the Tedeschi-Trucks band Thursday and dinner out on Friday for the official birthday. Looks to be a good week.

Happy Birthday Matt! Enjoy!!

I'll join in Al. Had a couple of G&T's after work. Debbie drank a bomber of Dreadnaught all on her own, and I'm about to mix Manhattan number one. Cheers!

Nothing as good as Mikey but to honor the spirit I'm having a Redbreast 12 yr. Cheers Mikey and Fitz and Shelly!

No, I did mean the beard. What would I do with whiskey?

Sardines in hot sauce.

^^^^ This man is my motherfucking hero! I want to be like Mikey!

Get healed Brent. I just did a rain dance for Shelly. You would not have wanted to see it, but it did involve Gumballhead and Bulleit bourbon.

Between gin & vodka in the freezer and vermouth in the fridge, I feel your pain. They just don't understand what's important when it comes to fridge space...

Approved.

Getting ready to grill a couple of flat iron steaks for Debbie and I. Accompanied by some fresh green beans in butter and olive oil.

Yay Dusty's Mom! And best to all 'rents going through issues. Good thoughts for all.

FFF Calumet Queen. A kolsch-like offering that goes down very well. 20 IBU, 5% ABV. I could drink a bunch of this.

G&T with Q tonic. Q tonic sucks. I need to order some Fever Tree stat.

Good news Vicki. I'm familiar with your situation as Mom had her second knee done at 89, I believe. She just turned 92 last weekend and the knees are holding up well.

Happy Birthday sir!!! Enjoy the day!!

A big thanks to Jim for the idea of peppercorn infused vodka. I had some neat when we got home from work, and followed that with Bloody Mary's for Debbie, a friend and I. Excellent stuff. Moved to a Manhattan after dinner of grilled pork loin and corn on the cob.

David, awesome looking liver. It's been about a thousand years since I've had liver, and I really do love it. Need to go shopping.

Debbie made asiago gnocchi in a vodka sauce and it did not suck.

That's why I received this today:

You know what Al? I like what the cherry and about a half teaspoon of the juice do for the Manhattan, but I don't like the taste of the cherries themselves. But I didn't buy them to eat cherries.

Received the last of my necessary ingredients, so now I can say Cheers, Jacob! This Manhattan (and maybe a couple more) is for you and Emily.

That she be.

Saw her last month, loved her and found out she is coming back in September so I bought tickets to see Kaki King again.
