Mattk Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 I was gifted a pair of these for my birthday. Of course one was opened almost immediately. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richnimrod Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Pulled down the open bottle of Baby Saz that I'd moved to make room for higher profile offerings during the Holiday Season, and had decent pour in a Glencairn. I always enjoy remembering what an easy-drinking, mellow pour this brand is. It's not challenging, nor complex in any way at all; but, a better-than-average finish in a flavorful dram that drinks so far below proof is just really satisfying sometimes. This is one of those times . . . in spades! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wait for a sale, it's like $21. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine a private barrel might be even nicer. Haven't had one, so I'm just guessing. All the WP I've tried (only one bottle of my own, and several tastes offered by friends) has been very nice.

I would like to see Washington do well in the playoffs, but I gotta root for the Bucs in this game. As a Sooner grad, I follow Baker Mayfield's career and I gotta pull for him. But hopefully it's a good game either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're right up there with Dallass, Iggles & Ratturd fans as the some of the most annoying. I probably wouldn't be as chippy about them, but at our last home game an obnoxious Squealers fan started some shit with Mrs. Skinsfan.....dude called her an "F'ing Bitch" and made as if he was going to push her. He was very, very fortunate that his buddy pulled him away and saved him....otherwise he was going to the emergency room to get a terrible towel extracted from his ass.

smokinjoe Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I used to hate the Steelers in the early 70’s. It wasn’t until Bradshaw changed facemasks that I began to somewhat like them. Sorry to say Skinsfan, but my most hated team as a kid were the Redskins! . This would be early -mid 70’s. They just seemed like just a bunch of old white guys with crappy face masks…. Really Ron Dole? A two bar? And, too many single bars… But, nothing worse than early Bradshaw and Griese thin 2 bars…yuck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedelstaedt Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Enjoying M10 Rye. From the beginning, I have really liked this bottle. Form me, it is different than any other rye, I have tasted. Not only different, but very good. I regret passing previous versions of M10R that I had opportunity to pick up. Oh well, lesson learned. Happy FRyeDay SB’rs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattk Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 (edited) After my mom's birthday celebration I made it to about 100 yards from my house. We had taken the nissan today instead of the ram. That was a mistake. Lucky me a neighbor towed me up the hill. That snow in maryland is particularly slippery today. So now that I'm home it's time to enjoy about half a bottle of a ps rittenhouse I got for Christmas. Edited January 19 by Mattk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting Well if you took the nissan out on Sunday afternoon, you should no longer have the rittenhouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 A cold weather pour sounded good, so I'm having some HW Midwinter act 5. Hits the spot perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
