Yeah, you'd like that wouldn't you? Damn, dirty hippies with their reefer and dungarees.

I'll have you know that I shower daily and do laundry weekly ...



Or is it the other way around?

Mission Carrack Imperial Red Ale. I really like this beer. Loads of orange, tangerine and grapefruit balanced by big caramel, cinnamon and brown sugar notes.

Haven't had a bad one from them yet.

That is the truth. My favorite beer from Odell is the Myrcenary DIPA, but the truth is that all of their beers are good to great.

I will say that 32oz of this beer is very good but your palate starts to get tired of the same taste. On the other hand it was a damn good beer, so now a pour of Talisker 18yo to end the night.

Margarita with a shot of Grand Marnier...

Blended or on the rocks? Also what Tequila was used? Thanks for the help, I have never heard it called a Cadillac before (though I have had Margaritas with Grand Marnier).

Mexican restaurant chain Casa Gallardo coined the phrase I believe. I think they use Cuervo 1800.

Yes. Many upscale Mexican food joints out here offer Grand Marnier as a premium "upgrade" over the standard cordial in their margaritas. For instance, Triple Sec will be the default, Cointreau would be a $1 upgrade, and Grand Marnier would be an additional $1.50. Never seen a margarita with GM referred to as a Cadillac before either, though that is my preferred mixer.

Today is my youngest son's 2nd birthday, so we're throwing a party later today. Fortunately, such events are still a mostly adult affair at his age, so I got to stock up on beer: Sierra Nevada Torpedo, Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier, New Belgium Abbey, Unibrue La Fin du Monde, and Ommegang Three Philosophers.

At TotalWine, I learned that my favorite bourbon, WL Weller 12y, has been moved to the same super rare allotment as Pappy van Winkle. I had just discovered it, too... very sad.

Planning on going to a bring your own booze cocktail party tonight. Going to be one of those things where everyone brings the ingrediants and makes a round of their cocktail for everyone. Thinking about making whiskey sours and am looking for a good cheap bourbon. Anyone have good experience with Bulleit Bourbon?

Can't ever go wrong with Basil Hayden's or Blanton's in about the same price range.
