ManifestedISO Posted August 2, 2016 Posted August 2, 2016 Thanks, I'll try the Four Roses ... the spicier the rightier. I just learned a few minutes ago, that ice is the anti-spice ... my fancy new ice sphere molds are cool, but completely kill the flavor and aroma. The good news is I haven't begun shouting at kids to get off my lawn yet. 1 All Stop. On Screen.
ShadySands Posted August 2, 2016 Author Posted August 2, 2016 My wife got my ice ball molds but I don't use them unless I'm making an old fashioned or something. I like my liquor neat for the most part and if I want it chilled then I'll just throw it in the freezer instead of adding ice. That usually only happens for vodka though since I like bourbon, tequila, and scotch at room temp 1 Free games updated 3/4/21
Guard Dog Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 I use steel ice cubes now. They work great and don't dilute your drink. They don't float or make that wonderful soft clink that ice makes in your glass... but there have to be some trade offs. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
ManifestedISO Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Not all ice is bad, I know now. This Double Rye is cooled and complimented pretty dang well with half a cube. I passed out earlier today verifying this. 3 All Stop. On Screen.
ManifestedISO Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Trying a couple new things, waiting for the Rogue One trailer ... a 'light whiskey', or 'un-aged' spirit. High West Silver Whiskey Western Oat, is the long name. No color whatsoever, which tricks your mind, but it's not harsh or unfriendly. Pretty neat sip. The other is local brewer Modern Times' Fruitlands, described as a sour tropical fruit gose beer ... sour, salty base beer with passion fruit and guava. So good I have a new favorite genre of beverage. All Stop. On Screen.
ShadySands Posted September 7, 2016 Author Posted September 7, 2016 (edited) I bought some acmella oleracea buds to add to some mixed drinks to spice things up a bit I've got a few recipes in mind PS really craving a can of cactus cooler but don't know where I could get it out here.

ManifestedISO Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 I'd be happy to send a twelve-pack of Cactus Cooler to an undisclosed dropbox. 1 All Stop. On Screen.

Starwars Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Threw together some cocoa, milk, cold coffee and kahlua. And put some ice in it. It's tasty. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
ShadySands Posted September 27, 2016 Author Posted September 27, 2016 I had a Weihenstephaner Vitus Delicious I took a picture but my wife caught me and then said I was doing it wrong and then proceeded to stage my shot so forgive me if I don't post it Free games updated 3/4/21
ManifestedISO Posted October 3, 2016 Posted October 3, 2016 Actually this 'American Prairie' blend is maybe lower down on my favorites list. Leaves a bit of a film over the intake valves, and a single ice cube destroys the character. Still decent enough, super groovy bottle, and they donate ten percent to the cause. https://www.americanprairie.org/profile/high-west-whiskey All Stop. On Screen.
Keyrock Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) My current favorite beer: Light body with a medium amount of flavor, hoppy taste, and a hint of malty flavor. Best as a summer beer, but enjoyable any time of year. Edited October 30, 2016 by Keyrock 3 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

Keyrock Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 It's a Polish beer. Hofbräu Original is the closest approximation I can think of off the top of my head as far as a beer you might be familiar with. RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
Hurlshort Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) Picked up this today. Pretty solid spin on an Octoberfest beer. I told my wife it was research for my blog. Edited October 30, 2016 by Hurlshot
Guard Dog Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 That looks good. But to write intelligently about it you'll need a sample size of at least a 12 pack. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
Gfted1 Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 It's a Polish beer. Hofbräu Original is the closest approximation I can think of off the top of my head as far as a beer you might be familiar with. My Polish neighbor turned me on to Tyskie. You would probably like that too. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Guard Dog Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 I should give brewing a try again. Can you believe it is still illegal to make your own whiskey for personal use in the US?

Chippy Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 A devout Guiness drinker. The chilled version is better than the original.
Keyrock Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) Negra Modelo Far and away the best Mexican cerveza I've ever had. It tastes like a German dunkel, a good dunkel at that. Drinks easy with a medium body and a nice caramel taste. Edited November 18, 2016 by Keyrock 2 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks
Guard Dog Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Just got home, greeted the pups, dropped my key and laptop on the kitchen table, dropped two ice cubes in a highball glass and poured in three fingers of Kentucky's finest. Not to sit on the porch and watch the sun set. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
Hurlshort Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Mexican beers often get a bad rap, but there are a few decent ones on the market. Shame they are all owned by Anheuser Busch and Heineken. Once upon a time I drank a lot of Victoria during Spring Break. There is a craft beer scene in Mexico though. It's just hard to find abroad. 1
ManifestedISO Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 yeah winter ale season is fun time, got some Stone ... Vanilla Bean Porter, Coffee Milk Stout, and a variety of Anchor Brewing ... IPA, Pale, Lager, and Anchor Steam. 1 All Stop. On Screen.
