Friday evening drinking thread

[Johannes de Silentio]

I hope everyone is easing into the weekend with some anxiety about Wanda Dale followed by rage at that idiot pyrocy and amusement about RSS goobers getting pissed about @lee_carvallo_12 doing some wonderful HTO trolling. In any event, I am having a delicious Cognac Sponge bottling of a Grosperrin 1969 Petite Champagne while re-watching the Rutgers game to get excited about that young boy Turner Corocran:

Started with a nice Michelob Ultra. Will soon be going to Weller Special Reserve. Going to watch The Sentry Tournament of Champions and wish I was golfing in Hawaii and not stuck in a cold wasteland.

It's only 330 in CA, so still on Coffee for now.

My in-laws arrived here today.
We're going to a cabin in Talkeetna for a four day weekend.
I'll be consuming my medicine the entire weekend.
Starting the moment I get there.

Switched over to Scotch now with this 2008 Cardhu 11 yo that was part of Diageo's 2020 Special Releases. I tried it once after opening the bottle a week or so ago, but I'm now doing a review since the bottle has had time to relax a little:

When you say you're "doing a review". Do you get paid to do these or is it like when I do a review of POTD?

The latter. Very, very few people get paid to review whisky. Most of the better ones are amateurs who, at most, get free samples and shit like that.

You have tapped in to my dry sense of humor that makes me laugh at dumb things. Thank you.

Also, thanks for letting others reply before replying to your own post. These are the pillars of democracy that will make the internet great again.

Drinking daggone Bud Lights out back sitting next to a daggone fire pit and hit some daggone weed about an hour ago. I'm fully leveraged, boys.

I'm drinking the German beer sampler from Costco. Started out with a Kauzle German pilsner. I wrote a review if anyone wants to hear it.

German/Austrian beer hits me as kinda meh. Which is great because I have a job interview for a job in Austria on Monday

Your beer descriptions are way more accessible to me than @Johannes de Silentio's bourbon/brandy/cognac descriptions. Thank you.
