Been a long week and I hit a solid milestone today, for a project that’s been in the works for over a year. I’m going to enjoy a little whiskey. What’s everyone else having?

Nice to see the whiskey posts recently. The seal has been broken, it’s now officially whisky season on Oppo
. That said, I’m probably going to pop out to a brewery for a couple (Social distancing on their open patio of course).

Mmmmm I basically don’t drink anymore, but I did love that stuff when I did. Very good quality for the price.

I mentioned it earlier, but the cooler weather means I’m going to be helping myself to a glass, or two, of some Lagavulin. ‘Tis the season!

Maybe finish up an ipa, but I might have a glass of tomatin scotch.

Wife tracked this down a few years back and paid MSRP on it after driving from Chicago and trailing a distribution truck through Louisville. Been slowly working my way through it ever since, with a pour for major life events. Have missed a few this summer: sold our house; moved; and got a offer for a new job today. This post reminded me I was overdue. Life’s too short not to open the good bottles; hope you’re all doing alright tonight and cheers.

Glad to hear things are going well for you. I kick myself every time I realize I haven’t tried Pappy Van Winkle’s yet, I really need to do something about that.

It is officially fall! Which means it is Apple Pie moonshine time. Not real moonshine of course, but I like the Ole Smokey stuff. It is basically fall in a mason jar. Of course, more than one glass gets pretty gross, so I’ll probs just have some McKenna Single Barrel.

I’m still at work, but I have a P49 taster in the garage fridge ready for some GBs when I get home (GB = Garage Beer).

I buy those for the free guitar strap washers.

I can’t imagine paying aftermarket prices for a bottle, but it’s damn fine bourbon if you have the opportunity to try it. Cheers and congratulations on your milestone.

Probably the same bottle of Apple Jack I bought on Wednesday. At the rate things are going it should be gone by Monday...

It’s weird that this comes in cans now, I liked the big glass bottles. Not sure if they still sell them in those around here, though.

Earlier today, water.
Now? Natty light. So fizzy water.

“whiskey season”
WTF that’s year round

Oh nice! Congratulations on the job.
I still need to try that one day. There are local joints that offer it, I just haven’t stepped up yet.
There is some Angels Envy in my very near future tonight though.

I like the cut of your jib.

Had a Nouaison + Roku + lime + Canada Dry, it was not great (the Canada Dry is too sweet).
Then a rhum Bellevue + Barceló + lime + Pepsi Max, nothing outstanding as the Max is definitely not ideal (they didn’t have the standard one when i order so i took a bottle of it ).
—
Funny note, it’s written on the Max that 61% of peoples on a survey liked the taste of the Max, not sure i would avertise it with this kind of number.

There are drinks that are seasonal to me, but bourbon is all year.
I doubt I've ever had a G&T between October and May, for example.

Thank you kindly— Angels Envy has had a standing spot in my bar as well for a long time.

Water. Have to wake up early tomorrow (like every day), work out, maybe get a quick jog in, then drive to Austin for the weekend.
My life is sooooo exciting.

Hey man, I like water, enjoy. Maybe spring for some bubbly water and celebrate the weekend?

Yeah, that is strange marketing. Enjoy your plethora or beverages.

I’ll have to try this sometime. I didn't like Honey Jack (at all!) hopefully that stuff's better.

Not gonna lie,
I have the occasional whisky in the summer. It’s just not the same.
I don’t post whisky
to Oppo in the summer much either
. Kinda like one hand clapping. :-)x

I had a Pelle grino earlier. Might go out to eat and have another one later. Gonna get a little crazy and have a slice of lime in it, too.

Just realized it uploaded the picture in thumbnail size, don’t know why, strange.
To be fair it’s my desktop and it’s getting cluttered, i should bring back some of the bottles to their “resting” spot .

Whoa, lime.... settle down now!

Maybe later I’ve have some fizzier water (a.k.a. a whiteclaw)
