What Are You Sipping on Lately? (Spirits Thread)

ShopVac · 11-10-2018, 12:13 PM

Friend in Kentucky made this for me. It's exactly what you think would come in a mason jar. The amount in there is what I consumed during the stiller game Thursday night...cant say I've felt like shit in the morning for some time.

I can still see...so it must be good. For fun, I posted my BAC reading when going to bed. Not a record, but it's up there.

ShopVac · 11-10-2018, 12:20 PM

And...just picked this up for the Pens game tonight. Never had it...so hoping it's good ($107 a bottle here in PA). Balvenie is becoming my strong favorite...

Looking for pliney

Didnt find any but did my share of boozing in short trip to LA.

Yeah...BACtrack. The wife got it for me. Keeps me in check on the road...makes me superman at home.

Dont like that they updated this app to make you have your location on. May go back to a simple stand alone device

UncleWede · 11-11-2018, 10:29 PM

What do u connect for the app to read?

Blow or spit on the screen, duh! HAH

I was about to ask the same thing.

As to the location tracking issue, can you turn off location services and use it or does it prompt you to turn it on?

Yeah...it prompts to turn back on. They just started this recently...ive had it for a couple years now.

In Detroit this week...trying to close out a 2 year project. Found this at a liquor store near my job site. So even if this week goes bad...it wont be that bad.

M_Six · 11-12-2018, 10:30 PM

Love me some Abelour.

Dipping into the Jameson IPA Cask tonight. Mellower than the Stout Cask.

tennisfreak · 11-13-2018, 01:58 PM

I had some of this the other day, not bad considering the price.

Today's try was GlenGrant...from Speyside. Little bit of spice, and being a little light had some bite too (what I'd expect in an 8 to 10 year). Nowhere near Aberlour level...but it's okay for $45.

ShopVac · 11-14-2018, 08:02 PM

Today's go...Talisker. Looking for an entry level peat...not a bad way to start out.

Bought a better bottle for tomorrow night

Good luck with it. It was too much peat for me.

Polished of the Glen Grant already? Hah

Just stepping up my game...some day I hope to drink as much as M_Six

As for the peat...getting accustom to the smokey taste. Not a favorite, just something different.

M_Six · 11-14-2018, 10:06 PM

I don't drink much. Not really. Not by some standards. I just post a lot. There's a difference.

Seriously. There is.

That's not true. I'm well into the acceptance stage. In fact, I have NEVER failed to accept a drink when offered one.

So there.
