When that ice melts then it will be a mixed drink.

Merry Christmas!

+3 on rye...

Merry Christmas!

half lime sparkling water and half tea.

Garrisons. Some kinda Texas alleged "bourbon" from over around Hye Tx. Over on Blanco/Gillespie county line. Just a bit west of the place here. It’s a little hot for my sensitive palate. But whatever.

Yeah, garrisons have a history of not faring well in Texas.

Watching "A Christmas Story" (he just got the lamp), drinking my 4th La Chouffe Cherry and the GF is doing a puzzle.

Belgian beer I picked up on a lark to go with chocolate covered cherry cordials.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals.

Local IPA, Bent Nail from Red Lodge Montana. (Don't drink nearly as much beer as I used to, which helped take off a bunch of weight in the past couple years. But the season deserves some celebration!)

Black Velvet.

Sazerac Rye.

Paulaner Pils to wash down the eats: Brisket sandwiches, boudin, boudin mac and cheese, candied bacon.

Condolences

Ya see, my drains are running slow.

Monkey Shoulder and an inferior Texas cabernet.

Makers mark with a whiskey stone

A little pre-Christmas cheer. Merry Christmas to to all!

Green Spot Irish whiskey, gift from a GOOD friend!

A glass of milk and homemade cookies!

Canada Dry zero sugar Ginger Ale. Exciting stuff! Gave up the spirits 4+ years ago.

Manhattan on the rocks (Bulliet rye). On number two. Might even have one more.

I am with the daughter and her family so stuck with what they have on hand. Sad, because I have so many great bottles to choose from back home.

I have felt your pain on a few occasions!

Last pour from a bottle of New Riff single barrel bourbon.

Michters bourbon

Old Forester 1870. Had some Anchor Christmas ale earlier, this years is not as good to me some earlier ones have been. Merry Christmas to All.

Eggnog and Wild Turkey, 50/50. Don't mix the good stuff.

Merry Xmas, all!

Blanton's...................a gift from my son.

Cheers to all.

MM

I keep a bottle at my sister's house. Nobody there will touch it.

Ya raised the boy right.

Knob Creek,
straight up

My Christmas eve tradition if I can find it, only about every other year, but got lucky this year...St. Bernardus Christmas Ale.

Stranahans neat.

Michters is some quality hooch for sure.

Old Forester 1910 is also at the top of my list.

Gotta’ love the utility of a screw-top

After a couple of those I would require a round glass!

Nothing fancy here, but of the guys on my crew has family in from Wisconsin. He put in an order for some Spotted Cow and gave it to me yesterday when we left work.

I'm drinking whatever it takes to dull the constant drone of my MIL's voice. I've been snowed in with my wife, kids and in-laws for 2 days so far, with the threat of 2 more days together looming large. Beer is my friend.

Polished off a bottle from the same maker a few days ago.

Keep it up. Cheaper than jail in the long run.

I would start drinking mouthwash and aftershave if I were in your shoes.

You might be on to something—-noticeably less spillage

For sure. That's why I laid in a supply.

If I run out of beer, I'll be hitting the mouthwash. 😀

My wife has been doing a bird dog salted Carmel with egg knog seems to be happy

I am jealous. Any Weller, much less the 12 year, is scarce as hen's teeth here in Missouri.

It’s probably my favorite Wheated bourbon, but Bib and Tucker and Larceny are helping me endure the times between scoring Weller’s or Blanton’s.

Cook's Brut

Budweiser

A double shot of Sambuco followed by a double shot of Canadian Club over ice.
kwg

Weller 12 for me tonight

Aged Apple Jack Shine.

I finished off a bottle of wine.

KYHillChick and I watched the Bengals beat the Pats drinking Scoresby.

We then feasted on skewers of tenderloin, bacon, shrimp,and chicken


BTW: I found a review of Scoresby that y'all might find edifying:

Scoresby Review

I don't think the reviewer did this scotch justice by comparing it to paint. Paint thinner? Yes, but not paint.

Had a wee dram of my new favorite Irish Whiskey, Connemara peated last night. (thanks for the suggestion Mathman!) Good stuff!

Virgil B.

None at all on account of I was driving, though I brung a bottle of Bailey’s Irish Cream over to my son’s place. I did sip on some Merlot when I got home, but technically it was already Christmas.

I’m sure glad quality booze like Bailey’s doesn’t fit my budget, else I’d be a full-blown alky by now fer sure 🙂

Water. Still in gall bladder attack recovery mode.

Time to make a fresh pot of hot, an' black!

New Riff is quickly becoming my go-to. Particularly our Bourbon Club store pics.

Screw tops rule

Went old school with eggnog with a finger of brandy in it. Very tasty. The brandy was St. Remy, which while it's not fine sipping quality is just fine for mixed drinks.
