Richnimrod Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I decided to add a couple private picks of 1972 plus the most recent edition of OFBB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryT Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 No advance planning here (and no guests or party), but kicked off my pre-game with some 2015 SmBLE. Was hankering for some rye, so moved to simply Baby Saz for now. Debating between some ECBP, GTS, or a Distiller's Cut Old Fashioned for kick-off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I turned the game off with under two minutes to play, and the winner is EW black label. Prior to the game, we had my home made chili. One suggestion I can offer to anyone that likes to cook - consider starting with dried rather than canned beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flahute Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Nothing! We were at a friends house and they don't have much in the way of bourbon so I went without while watching football for the first time in.........well, it's too long to remember. What a tough game to watch. I do need a drink after that! Congrats to Gee for his team getting ring number 6! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRich Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Ended up with a pour of PS WTKS that was much better than the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardsandBourbon Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 A friend and I both brought bottles to the party. I brought the aforementioned ET BIB and my buddy brought 4R SmB. The son of the friend throwing the party brought a bottle of Rabbit Hole. Well, with 3 bourbons there we decided a SBSBS taste test was in order. We each enjoyed a pour of all three and helped broaden the horizons of our bourbon neophyte host. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Good food, fun and bourbon at our family Super Bowl party yesterday. Galvin0791's shared a few interesting pours. I had Binny's ps Smooth Ambler Blended Whiskey, Jos Magnus/Murray Hill Club, (nice job Nancy), and Blanton's SFTB. Too bad the game wasn't as good as the bourbon. Oh well. Hey, I won the first quarter in our 25¢ a square family pool, ($5.00) and a scratch off lottery ticket was also a prize, and I won $10.00 on that. Biba!

Joe Thanks @fishnbowljoe, glad you enjoyed the MHC! I helped with the initial formulation for the Smooth Ambler American Whiskey some years ago, so I hope that turned out good as well. I kind of felt like a traitor yesterday, not because I didn't have MHC or Smooth Ambler, but just because I had beer (gulp!) instead of bourbon of any sort. I don't know why- maybe because beer just seems to go better with Super Bowl-type cuisine like nachos, wings, etc. At any rate, I ended up having a Lagunitas IPA and a Sierra Nevada Stout. The IPA definitely went better with the nachos. I digress...... At any rate, I used to live in Boston, so I was rooting for the Pats.

More action than the game provided, me thinks. Always a good time, Joe. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clueby Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I was glad the Rams lost. I was sad the Pats won. There was going to be no good outcome for me. I didn't have any bourbon but this was at least aged in a bourbon barrel. Took the whole game to finish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really didn’t have an interest in the winner, but found myself pulling for the Patriots when the Rams didn’t go with their blue and white combo. I love their blue helmet with white horns. Reminds me of my ute when I was a big Roman Gabriel fan. I see but don’t completely understand the animosity that NE and Brady/Belichick get, but damn, how can one not just marvel at the excellence of that organization and what they’ve done for such a long time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
