Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What're we drinking this evening ??

Last night we had 2016 Bella Union Cabernet with white bean, rice, and fried crawfish. That was very sophisticated for the houseboat. Been drinking Wild Turkey 101 straight with a little ice lately. Pretty good.

I have an unopened bottle of WT101 that will get opened today. Thanks for the reminder.

Bump;

Summer's coming !

Jim Beam Single Barrel - 95 proof.



Never tried it before, very nice.

Well, tonight being Monday, nothing. Last night being Sunday, nothing. Up until a few weeks ago, we'd have a drink every evening before dinner. Sometimes some wine with dinner as well. Then we decided to cut it down to one drink Friday night and one Saturday night. Damn, I really like my alcoholic beverages. I have to admit, blood pressure is showing marked improvement and I generally feel much better. It's tough, when you like it as much as I do, but limit yourself to two drinks a week, it makes it really hard to decide what to have. Friday night it was a Negroni, Saturday night an Old Fashioned. Looking ahead, I think this week it will be a Martini Friday night and a Manhattan Saturday night.

I believe I just might like that one.

Maybe a Bud Light

Oh, decided to have a mule off.

Australian, Buderim ginger beer vs Fever Tree ginger beer.





Further testing will be needed to determine the result.

When I lived in Australia it was Bundaberg. Great root beer too.

Yes sir Ed !!

Think we talked about that before.

Beer

Shiner Bock.

turkey 101 with a couple of cubes

I usually steer clear of craft distillers. Most of their schit hasn’t caught up with mainstream products. They’re where craft brewers were in the 90’s.

That said, buddy dropped of a bottle of Woodinville Bourbon the other day. The stuff is GOOD. Not near as sweet and carmely as Makers but not as hot and spicy as Bookers. Kinda a nice little stop in the middle.

It’s a nice $40 bottle IMO.

Sans cubes for me.

Turkey 101 neat like that is rather good for the money. One of my favorites. Just too dang hot for it right now......

The good stuff goes fast. Back to the basics.





That ginger beer and vodka looks like the ticket for hot nights. Thanks for the notion.

Yep, Moscow Mule are very refreshing !!

I always ad a quarter of a lime juiced, + a slice.

Adds tartness & helps balance.

Really good Canadian whiskey for me;



Glass of Pinot for Deb;



Comfortable setting too !

Titos is over rated and over priced
