over the last 6 Months I have had Holsten Pils , just a couple of cans a week . It went down great in those hot weeks when I was up to my eyes in decorating . served at the right temp this is still a big fav of mine and I am not really a lager drinker but for this I will alwys make an exception .

btw , still have a bottle of cognac in my pantry , had it for aout 3-4 years my brother bought it me as a present , don't know what to do with it , it's a bit strong for me

I have a bottle of Absolut vodka in my kitchen cabinet that was brought over 2-3 years ago by a guest, I also don't know what to to with it. I wish he had brought a lagered beer.

cognac...you're not supposed to but try it over ice.

vodka...try it with mountain dew.

Had a little bit of Zinfandel last night, by Blackstone. Red wine always makes me feel like sleeping in a little later rather than if I just drank whiskey before bed.

you could always send it to me just kidding

a use which i often enjoyed was in a dish of quality ice cream. i like vanilla and cognac complimented the taste exceptionally well i thought

I love strong, dark beers in the winter time. In out of the cold and into a warm, irish style pub.

Just tried Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout the other night, 9% alcohol. Absolutely wonderful!

Have you tried Russian Gun? It's the only Russian stout I could find in my area.

the best tipple I had one winter was from a local micro brewery attached to a pub , it was called "Bingle Jells" and i think it was 9% ......

I have a Santa Claus ale somewhere , I think it was around 20% proof brewed in Switzerland , i never did drink it

Just had Lagunitas Sumpin Sumpin ale last night. Outstanding!! At 7.5% ABV, this sneaks up on you quick.

Thanks for the warning. I like to a have a drink once in a while but I don't want to get 'toe up.

tried a couple of glasses of Port yesterday , enjoyed it , hadn't tried it for a long time and wondered if the contents of the bottle were OK , tasted fine

Any thoughts on Canadian whisky? At one time it was world famous but now...is it still famous?

 

[GQ Chris]

There's always the ole standby Crown Royal. I haven't heard of too much raving about any particular Canadian whiskeys.

CC is made and bottled 45 min. away from my place and everyone around here drinks it but I find it plain, most people drink it with ginger ale or coke. If you have to mix it, it's not really worth drinking...is it?
