It’s thick because it’s not just an IPA, but an “Oat Cream IPA”.  That is a great brewer, out of Brooklyn.

My fave, this and Artemus runs through my veins. I have tried the reserve and it’s outstanding, but not necessary.

Bourbon boys: getting more versed in what's out there in my area as well as pricing discrepancies. For the most part, not seeing anything out of the ordinary...just can't find anything "rare."

In trial by drinking, Elijah Craig Small Batch is quickly becoming my go to. Anything comparable? Also, is ECBS worth the splurge? I imagine it is.

Also, how is Mitchter's as a whole?

I recently discovered ECBP and have been fortunate to grab the last three offerings. Yes it’s worth it.  With that said I probably wouldn’t spend more than $80-85 for it.  If you can get the Larceny BP I would say it’s worth a grab too.

Michters as a whole is solid.

Michter’s is solid. ECSB and ECBP also both great. Every day drinkers that are moderately priced include Wild Turkey 101, Early Times Bottled in Bond, Buffalo Trace (if you can find)

 2 of the 3 of these I rarely see on the shelves anymore. Specially not at the same time at the same store. Grabbed Four Roses bc you can’t ever go wrong with a bottle of that IMO.

Four Roses Small Batch Select is a great pour.  Their pricing pushes the value ($50-55) but it is readily available.  Eagle Rare (when found) is a great buy at around $40.  Enjoy the experimenting.

Like the wheated  mash bills over the ryes.
Buffalo Trace, and Weller Special Reserve are favorites. But Weller is not that available in IN.

 Not enough restaurants serve margaritas or beer in frosty schooners anymore.  I miss them.

I could not find anywhere to purchase those margarita glasses, I ended up convincing the barmaid at a local tex-mex chain to sell me 8 used ones when the pandemic started.  I am down to 6 now; I should be OK for a couple more years.  Two of them are always on standby in the basement fridge.

My dad didn’t drink much but he always had a beer schooner ready in the freezer, that’s the only way he would drink beer and always with a pinch of salt.

I'm no culinary expert ... but why are people pinching their salt and writing about it so openly?

Tilt your head. More booze %, same price.   Wings and drums on the campfire in the background.  Happy labor day, take a needed break everyone.

WT101 is a great value pour. As good as many two or three times the price. Enjoy!

101 Rye is pretty good too.

Stormbringer

A very interesting Canadian wine, this is partially aged in maple wood barrels. Great name too.
