Hofbräu Octoberfestbier

My co-worker and I have a new tradition every Friday now we try a new whisky, usually scotch. Tonight's indulgence was Glenlivet 18. A wonderful pour with a nice long, lingering finish.

Got home and have picked out this Dalwhinnie 15 -

With all this "Alt-Right & Alt-Left" crap, I decided to have a North Coast Alt Nouveau

Treehouse Brewery Dopplganger

Sam Adams Harvest Hefe

A new seasonal from Sam Adams. Kind of an interesting bridge from Summer into Fall. It's a Hefeweizen, which is my usual Summer beer. But it has a hint of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove, which are spices typically associated with Fall.

Shiner Oktoberfest

Bushmills. Finished the bottle so I can crack open the bottle of Black Bush next time.

Stopped by the Millersburg Brewery today and was wowed by their Peanut Butter Porter !
Got a growler of it & their Vanilla Porter to take with me.

Peanut Butter Porter tonight.
Sounds odd but tastes great.
Though I'll admit to being the guy who sits with a jar of Jiff and a spoon....

Went to Blake's Cider Mill Cider Dayze today - and sampled everything in sight.

Old Grandad and Highland Park 12 Yr are in the queue.

Sierra Nevada Kellerweis

Holy smokes.

Last night the guy hosting the Mayweather fight put out his best scotches to pair with our cigars.
I was able to partake in more than my fair share of Balvenie 21 Yr Port Wood scotch. Suddenly my Glenlivet does not appeal to me quite as much anymore....LOL

Schlafly Octoberfest

(What... Don't judge. It's "tonight" somewhere. )

As much as I enjoyed the Balvenie 21, I didn't like it enough to want to spend $200. The scotch guy at Total Wine recommended Grangestone, which I have to admit I am not familiar with.

Going to give this 18 a try in a bit, and if I really like it I'll give the 21 a shot.

In this thread, we don't judge

Elijah Craig small batch bourbon.

Any of you hopheads familiar with DogFish? Their 90 minute is my go-to IPA these days. Today I found a 4 pack of this little gem. DogFish 120 minutes.

The bottle says "ages well" so I am adding 3 of them to my collection of Bretts and Saisons for the winter.

I'm making an Old Fashioned. Looking forward to it!

^^^^ love this stuff, my daily pour.

Picked up some Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit single barrel to try.

Go figure. 4 in the afternoon. Beautiful day, clear skies, gentle breeze, and temps in the low 90s. And I'm drinking a huge Irish Coffee. Yup, nothing over ice... just a spiked special coffee, whipped cream and all. LOL
