Prisoner. A better than average Cali red for tonight.

Bluuuue Mooon, you saw me standing alone, without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own. Love me some Blue Moon.

Anyone else have to drink their beer in a glass? I think it's so much better in a glass, than can or bottle...

Any of you guys ever try Basil Hayden's Bourbon Whiskey? I received it as a gift over the weekend and am curious of the opinion of those who have tried it. Nice looking bottle!

^ Basil Hayden is from Beam.

It and their Old Grand Dad expressions use Beam's "high rye" mash, which differs from all of their other expressions (Beam, Beam Black, Bakers, Bookers, Knob Creek, etc).

It's a good Bourbon, no doubt, and the only real criticism that I recall is that it's a bit weak (in proof) and sold at a premium price.

Enjoy.

If you want something that tastes similar (same mash) and is both stronger and cheaper, check out Old Grand Dad 114 (not the Orange label and lower proof version, but specifically the 114).

I like Basil, but it has A LOT of rye in it. I drink it neat (no water or ice) and chase it with a cider. The apple and bourbon combo, sweetness of the cider and spice of the high rye bourbon makes a great winter boilermaker. I have to be careful a few of these boilermakers and your drunk.

Slumming it and drinking Mickey's Ice tonight. My buddy Jake and I used to buy the hell out of this crap when it was 1.09 a quart when we were in Nuke school.

Here's to old times and here's to you Jake, wherever the hell you are now.

(For some reason you can only find it in FL)

Been a LONG day. Opened a new bottle of Buffalo Trace, poured it straight into a heavy bottom crystal tumbler.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

About 2" of Knob Creek and 3 or 4 ice cubes in a large tumbler.

I am, well, I was sipping a bourbon made by Kopper Kettle right cheer in Ol Virginny. Cradle to grave made in Virginia. Aged in two different wood barrels. Maybe I need another sample. I am just not sure if I like it yet.

Vandermill Roasted Apple Cider. This might be the best cider I've ever had, and I've had dozens. And at 6.9% it will kick you right in the slats.

He may not like it--probably doesn't; I don't--but he knows it's so, and knowing is the first step in coping with it."

Ok, is this a "business trip" or a "pleasure trip"?

Old Overholt Rye Whisky. Buffalo Trace is getting many mentions so I will try it. And the orange OGD.
