TJM217 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Nice topic, For beer- Old Rasputin Russian imperial stout, left hand nitro stout. Guinness if I'm being basic. Drank- Bulliet bourbon, makers mark, chevas, or scotch on rare occasion. Buffalo Trace is solid Edited August 2, 2017 by TJM217 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I haven't found a better whiskey than Basil Hayden's. Easily my favorite. When I'm not drinking beer, it is always an Old Fashioneds, or BH on the rocks. The only exception is pre-gaming before MNUFC games, where it is just shots of whatever is available. YOLO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretgod99 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Whisk(e)y is definitely an acquired test, just like beer. Hell, just like pretty much every alcohol. But I tend to really like Irish Whiskeys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDrew Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Any other gin drinkers? And before you say gin tastes like pine needles, know that it's only cheap gin that tastes that way. Gin has the same range as tequila where the cheap stuff is undrinkable, and the good stuff is easy to sip. Go find yourself a good gin and tonic make with good gin, and good tonic syrup (Not tonic water. Most tonic water tastes like feet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But (yeah I know everyone has a big but) do yourself a favor and get the 16 year. ? It's on a whole nother level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwny Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Just bought two bottles of Jim Beam’s Game 7 batch. One is going up and probably never getting opened. The other is getting opened over a Cubs game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when it's hot I like tequila, straight or mixed. Mexican beers with lime and/or hot sauce (try it). And vodka with lime juice on ice. I'm intrigued. Love Negra Modelo (not just in the summer tbh). Just a dash of hot sauce? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got this pretty small distillery a couple blocks away from us that makes an amazing gin. It's so easy to drink on it's own or makes for a great gin and tonic, especially when it's hot out.

It's so easy to drink on it's own or makes for a great gin and tonic, especially when it's hot out. I've found small distillery gin to be the best. My favorite, and the one that got me started on gin, is St Augustine Distillery's New World Gin. Fantastic stuff. We have a distillery in town that only does gin. Their tasting room is a speakeasy. It looks like a tailor's shop where you walk in, and you have to ring a bell. A slot on the door slides open, they look you over, and then let you in. It's all 20's inside. The gin is really good, but what really sets them apart is the tonics they make in house. Amazing drinks from the bar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansNvolsR#1 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Any good gin cocktails you guys like? I've stopped using tonic water because of the sugar in it. Lately it's just gin, soda water, lemon but I'd like to switch it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
