Sam Adams Imperial Series Wee Heavy...

What did you think? I normally like most SA beers but this one seems

just meh.

Full Hand Twin Sisters Double IPA. I actually like this one.

Old Raj Gin & Fever Tree Tonic with a dash of grenadine

Nice.

Having a Belhaven Wee Heavy while waiting to see Jimmy Webb.

Chick-fil-A Banana Pudding Milkshake

I've never been to a Chick-fil-A.

Come visit, I'll take you (except on sunday, they're closed)

Chick Fil-A is awesome, and I keep forgetting to order that banana pudding milkshake.

Fresh Margarita

3 oz key lime juice

2 oz simple sugar

3 oz Sauza Gold

1.5 oz Grand Marnier

On the rocks of course

Frank Sinatra Come Fly With Me Cabernet Sauvignon. Napa Valley fruit bomb, in a good way.

Blood and Sand

0.75 oz scotch

0.75 oz Itailan vermouth

0.75 oz Heering

0.75 oz orange juice, fresh

Shake over ice and double strain.

This is my second time around to this one, and Dolin Rouge works better than Carpano Antica. It's much more balanced now.

I've never been to a Chick-fil-A.

theres one inside NYU

Dogfish Head Burton Baton...more New Belgium Mighty Arrow Pale Ale, Sam Adams Imperial Series Wee Heavy & Boulevard Smokestack Series Chocolate Ale...

Chrysanthemum Cocktail (modified)

3 dashes Absinthe (1 tsp)

1/3 Benedictine (1 oz)

2/3 French Vermouth (2 oz. Cocchi Americano)

Cut a long orange peel directly over a cocktail glass to ensure oil is retained. Stir ingredients with ice. Strain and garnish with said orange peel.

Yes, artistic license, but no surprise it's very yummy, IMHO!

Harpoon cider. Goes well with a cigar.

Only thing I have against chik-fil-la is that they are not open on sundays and are openly against homosexuality.

Creole Cocktail

1 1/2 oz Sazerac Rye

1 1/2 oz Carpano Antica Vermouth

1 tsp Benedictine

1 tsp Amer Boudreau

Stir, strain and garnish with lemon twist

Choco Bock.

Goddamn, this is good.

They snuck this year's into one of their seasonal boxes. 2 out of 12 of the bottles, but not bombers, alas.

Still, worth the price of admission alone. I'd rank it right up there with Life & Limb. Ya, rly.

Two Carthusian Cocktails ala B&B

2 oz Rendevous Rye

0.75 oz Punt e Mes

0.5 oz Green Chartreuse

2 dashes Fees orange bitters

Stir until cold and strain into a coupe. Garnish with a lemon zest twist. The second one has the the amounts for the Punt e Mes and Chartreuse swapped.

Not nearly as good as the one at B&B because it is missing one crucial ingredient, the most excellent company. Still it is an awesome cocktail and I prefer the one that leans toward the Punt e Mes.

Two Carthusians for my sister and me, using Jim's modified recipe with .75oz each of Chartreuse and Punt y Mes.

Mexican-style, real sugar, bottled merchandise 7x.

At the Floyds after the very good Webb show. Currently having a Rabid Rabbit. And for those who have made the pilgrimage, Topless Wytch is next.

Savory cocktail ideas needed. The Carthusian was too sweet for my sister apparently. Classic Martini is what she is thinking but I need to broaden her horizons. Give.

Vesper! Followed by a Corpse Reviver.

Now having a Bushwick

2 oz Sazerac Rye

3/4 oz Carpano Antica

1 1/2 tsp Amer Boudreau

1 1/2 tsp Luxardo Maraschino

Stir, strain and serve sans any garnish

True. That was in the back of my mind, but wouldn't come to the front. Thanks, that will be next.

More ideas welcome.

Paradise Cocktail (Savoy)

1 Dash Lemon Juice (1/8 oz)

1/4 Orange Juice. (1/2 oz fresh Orange Juice)

1/2 Gin. (1 oz Plymouth)

1/4 Apricot Brandy. (1/2 oz Rothman and Winter Orchard Apricot)

Maiden’s Prayer Cocktail No. 1 (Savoy)

1/8 Orange Juice. (1/4 oz fresh Orange Juice)

1/8 Lemon Juice. (1/4 oz fresh Lemon Juice)

3/8 Cointreau. (3/4 oz Cointreau)

3/8 Dry Gin. (3/4 oz Plymouth Gin)

Shake and double strain.

I prefer this one to the above. It's rather nicely balanced, IMHO.
