What are you drinking tonight, Summer '08

[craigthom]

Well, if I wanna feel like an "American" I can always say that I'm supporting American jobs and American Industry and American Heritage. I have no problem with giving the people who were willing to support these people through rough times when the distilleries would have otherwise been lost the credit they are due.

We can still bitch about closing Stitzel-Weller, though, right?

In that city named after a king of France?

Of course...malcontent is a perfectly American hobby.:grin:

Enjoying EC 18 and watching the Phils-Dodgers. Just a few more pours in the bottle, and I'll definitely buy another one as it's one of my favorites.

Just opened my first bottle of ETL. Very good stuff. Brings back some fond memories of the toffee my grandfather always had next to his chair.

[JamesW]

Julio's Weller and now ORVW 10/107

[bigtoys]

reading Moscow Rules, the new Daniel Silva novel out on the patio this afternoon with a Bulleit and (diet) Coke. Last day of vacation :frown:

[ILLfarmboy]

Gran Centenario Plata, neat, from a reidel bourbon glass.

Trying to finish off my bottle of Ezra B 12 yr old. Joe

I decided on a pour of Centennial this evening while filling out my timesheet for last week at work. Heck, it was a garden variety 58 hour week (not counting today).

While putting my my time for work, I thought I smelled something burning in the kitchen as I had a very strong wood smoke smell in the air. It took me a moment to realize that the culprit was the Centennial sitting nearby.

I've never gotten that strong of a smoky nose off of any pour before. It's almost a wet campfire log smell and it is wonderful.

Neither have I. Where is this bottle from?

[callmeox]

It's a special bottling of Centennial for Premier Group in Buffalo, NY.

[OscarV]

I'm having the first pour of a just opened Wild Turkey Rare Breed.

Not as good as Kentucky Spirit, IMHO but I like it a lot.

[SBOmarc]

After a weekend enjoying the kegger, Water, Iced Tea, and Coke Zero.

[fishnbowljoe]

Still trying to polish off a bottle of Ezra B 12 yr old. Joe

[spun_cookie]

WT night.. 8 yr 101 from 1982 and AS

[callmeox]

OGD BIB and then B.E.D.

. . . . . . . .

[JamesW]

Lot B, Julio's Weller, and now some PVW 20. all good.

[SBOmarc]

Buffalo Trace, rocks. more than one, less than 4. So much for abstaining.

[OscarV]

WTRB Batch No WT-03RB, neat.

I could get used to this, this bird is a little untamed but that's the way birds are.

[fishnbowljoe]

The last of a bottle of Ezra B 12 yr old. Joe

[Gillman]

McKenna SB poured on two cubes of ice glug glug in my big Jim Beam glass. This bourbon seems at its best slightly chilled and expresses the true spirit of Kentucky straight whiskey.

Bourbon De luxe 80 from the National Distillers days. Not too robust...which is just fine for a hot and humid summer afternoon.

[PhilsFan]

It's Four Roses Single Barrel tonight, neat as usual in a Glencairn glass.
