November 5, 20232 yr Author comment_923310 Has anyone made Mattnog this year? I think it's pretty close to the cutoff for the holidays but my niece reminded me and I may just throw a batch together. Report
November 5, 20232 yr comment_923324 Drank almost none of what I made last year, sadly. So I'll find someway to celebrate Matt this holiday season but unlikely to make 'nog as I'm the only one who will drink it and have not been drinking much lately at all. Report
November 5, 20232 yr Author comment_923334 I hope you kept last year's batch because it would be awesome after being aged a year! Report
November 5, 20232 yr comment_923337 Nice that you guys keep this thread and the Mattnog tradition going. He would have loved this thread. Well, no, actually, he wouldn't have said a word about it. But it would have made him feel good inside to know that you cared that much about him and that you still remember him well. Report

November 6, 20232 yr Author comment_923347 Even Shelly drank year old Mattnog, despite her phobias! 😆 It's safe so long as it was refrigerated. Wild Turkey Mattnog 2023! And the Bacardi Gold ought to add some more sweetness given the two cups of rye. Report
November 17, 20232 yr comment_923904 Someone just liked a 4 year old post of mine on this thread. Time to renew my vows. I must make MattNog this weekend. *sings* It's the Matt...Noggiest time of the year... I also love that the most recent posts are on my wedding anniversary. Cheers Matt! Report
November 21, 2025Nov 21 Author comment_965556 Zero Mattnog posts since 2023. What a sad state of affairs. I was just reminded that I failed to make a batch again and I am disappoint in myself. Anybody else make some or still have some in the back of the fridge? Is a month enough time for it to gel? Report
November 22, 2025Nov 22 comment_965562 Still have some in the fridge and I will admit that I'm absolutely terrified to drink it. Report
November 22, 2025Nov 22 comment_965569 I'm afraid it'll start talking to me if I open it up... But perhaps there's a science project in my future to see what happens when I do. Report
November 24, 2025Nov 24 comment_965643 nice... If not ready for Christmas, there is new years, MLK day, President's day, Juneteenth, Talk Like a Pirate Day, next thanksgiving.... etc. (fuck you matt) Report
