Mission Brewery Conquistador Extra Pale Ale. Really smooth and drinkable with just a bit of a bite and that hemp flavor that you'd expect from a pale ale. Comes in a 32 oz can so that's a bonus.

Lagavulin 16yo.

I really like this whisky but the one slightly disappointing thing is that they have definitely cut down on the sherry casks that go into this bottling.

Still loads of wood smoke, coal, smoked tea, some salt/ocean smell, caramel, and oak. Hints of tobacco leaves and worn leather.

Not quite as good as I remember it being, but still a damn good whisky especially at $55.

Care to share where you got it for 55?

George Dickel #8. The #12 is one of my go to, everyday whiskies. But I never had the #8, so I gave the base model a try. Lighter and not as flavorful as the 12. Just a touch sweeter. Not bad for $21.

In response to the original post "What are you drinking?" Not enough at the rate we're losing!

I had a blissful Chianti Classico Risersva 2008. Now I'm just into cocktails.

I'm not generally a big fan of lagers, but Great Lakes does them right. Dortmunder Gold and Eliot Ness are both excellent.

First up: Bell's Midwestern Pale Ale. Pretty standard pale ale with a somewhat bitter finish. There's something metallic in there that I'm not loving, almost like I'm licking the inside of a vegetable can.

Sorry, that is rough.

Woodchuck Raspberry Hard Cider. A bit sweet for my taste but I'm reminded why I prefer Woodchuck over Angry Orchard and some of the others. Much drier and more natural tasting.
