Welcome to the world of tiki drinks - the foreword in the "Easy Tiki" book touts, TOUTS the fact that these drinks are 6 ingredients or less (many of them fresh juices or syrups), hence the "easy" part.

If you ever catch any of their special releases (like the peated rye and bourbon they released) let me know. Their single barrel Rye is one of my all time favorites for under $100

One of my favorite summer ales. I don't even like mango, but this one is tasty!

Yep. Back in 2015.

Right at the time Bud did the Super Bowl commercial mocking pumpkin beers, they bought Elysian - who happens to brew a ton of pumpkin beers.

I haven't had their rye and saw the peated rye/bourbon but after they came out and wasn't able to get one. I am in a bourbon club that used to meet at New Riff (up until about 9 months ago) but we eventually had to go somewhere else as they were worried about the liability of 100 people bringing bottles of bourbon to their place to drink (rightfully so). It was a good chance to see what their gift shop had available.

I have not had either of the tequilas but the Macallan numbered editions are usually pretty good scotches. I have had the No 2 and No 3 and both were very good.

I'm not a big Sangria fan but this is the wife's favorite so most ....... if not all will be hers but I am sipping a bit??

Date night with the Mrs

M_Six · 08-21-2020, 10:35 PM

We went to a restaurant once that served white Sangria. One glass would knock you on your ass. Tasty as hell, but deadly.

Suntory Ao. A world blend of Irish, Scotch, American, Canadian, and Japanese whiskies.
