Yup, dry grapes on straw mats in sun to concentrate, then vinify. Lovely jubbly.

You appear to be putting on your winter coat, Mike.

GDay Bruce!

Btw, has any of you guys tried the soapstone cubes for cooling drinks? Do they alter the taste in any way? I might get some of those for Christmas to my friends.

I have them. No taste I can detect, not sure it cools as much as I'd hoped, but probably still worthwhile.

Chimay Red

HalfAcre Tasty Waves Pale Ale...

Lewis Cabernet Sauvignon, opening up nicely and should play well with dinner.

BrewDog/Mikkeller I Hardcore You...nice blend...

Tuesday Local Brew:

I thought I ran out of RR bottles - and they put out a new batch.

Russian River - Damnation - Batch 23

And Why -- >

Jolly Pumpkin Marcaibo Especial Special Brown Ale...

Milk (to wash down Crave cupcakes).

/\ /\ /\ /\ I hear they make a Bailey's for that.

You are right, I better get some more cupcakes.

Old Fashioned with Pappy 15 and Fees Old Fashioned bitters.

^Nice!

Made a Pisco Punch but can't find the USB cable for the LX5 right now so no pic. Not my favorite drink either.

Pisco Sour is so much better.

Still have that one on the list. Wanted to use the Small Hands Foods pineapple gum syrup that I just got. I don't think that my esophagus can take a drink with that much pineapple and lemon.

FFF Alpha King...

Wild Heaven Ode to Mercy...

Founder Backwoods Bastard. Been looking forward to this release for quite some time.

What, no stouts to drink?

Thanks for that great tasting, btw. I can't remember if I ever posted it, but thanks, I had a good time.

Dewar's rocks on the Acela to DC. Blech. Shouldve had the DFH.
