--> Macallan 1990/19yo 43% The Whisky Trail Bottling

Redbreast 15yr

I don't know much about port, but you should consider when those more recent vintages are supposed to be at their "peak" because K&L indicates some of them are "best after 2020" or "projected to mature between 2030-2055."

Hmm, something to think about. I definitely don't have any proper place to store them.

Redbreast 15yr

Note to self - buy a bottle of that.

Enjoying my fave - a Manhattan.

Not actually drinking as I've already spat it out, but just had an apple cider that had gone bad. I had bought the damn things on Monday night and I hadn't even opened it yet.

Unnamed Drink #1

2 oz Sazerac 18 Rye

3/4 oz Cocchi Barolo Chinato

1/2 oz Blume Marillen Apricot Eau-de-Vie

1 dash Bitter Truth Grapefruit Bitters

Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Express a lemon twist and drop in.

Nice! I think I will call it The TriBeCa.

^That sounds good.

DFH olde school on draft

Stone Arrogant Bastard on tap

Margarita (aka Imperial Daisy) face-off: Mandarine Napoleon vs Creole Shrubb

2 oz Casa Noble Reposado

1 oz orange liqueur

1 oz lime juice

Both were a little too limey for my taste but the Creole Shrubb was far superior IMO. Earlier, I tried sipping the MN and wasn't very fond of the smell.

dangerous:)...

Cutters Half Court IPA....new brewery outta Bloomington, Indiana...

How is it Jeff? Good to see another offering I can check out when I visit my sister.

I think I agree w/a fellow untappd member...it has an almost citrus taste to it despite not having any citrus components...it's not half bad, but I'd like to try it on tap to hopefully see/taste what they were going for...

to lazy to take a new pick...

Juslyn 2010 Sauv Blanc

MN is Brandy based and much better in other drinks. I like Jim's concoction.

Now I'm having my third Lagunitas IPA at the Fillmore before Trombone Shorty. Cheers on new years eve eve!
