Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?
our neighborhood pub has been getting bottles of Almanac in lately

last night my wife and I got to try the Splendid Population, it was pretty intense but went well with the big soft pretzel we ordered with it

I still think the Lavender Honey Brett Saison is my favorite, it's much more subtle, a close second is the Strawberry & Basil

I scored a beta invite to Sixpoint's app so I can reserve limited-run IPAs and show up at their brewery to get them. So far their app seems like it's mostly a web view wrapper but hey, it gets me sweet beers.

six point makes a lot of decent beers that are not IPAs but they are famous for their limited runs that are primarily sold on tap

offering a few growlers/cans to die-hards seems like a fun loyalty program to me

one thing that sucks about drinking mid-range bourbon is once in a while you get a bad/subpar bottle

e: it's just this knob creek 100 proof has more toffee than I remember. manageable with an ice cube I guess

their app indeed was a buggy web view. A picker menu popped up with no 'select' button so after an app crash mentioning a firebase issue and pawing around I managed to score myself a pack of IPA

knob creek is 100 proof, it always requires an ice cube or added water if you actually want to taste it instead of just numbing your tongue

the bottom-tier jim beam / old granddad / old crow are not very good, but even one step up is really great.

e.g. old granddad bottled-in-bond is a solid fuckin bourbon for like, $12

I haven't found this to be the general rule for 100 proofs but it's an option that should be on the table particularly for those with inconsistent bottlings

it is an acquired ability though in that sense but some labels are really so boozy that you need a little h20 every time

i find most bourbons are substantially improved by not just one but several ice cubes

it should be well below room temperature and significantly diluted

I always ice my bourbons except for that one Cowboy shot I had in Chicago

beer update: had pabst blue ribbon for the first time yesterday while helping some friends move. a) it's so weird drinking beer out of tiny 355ml cans, b) the best ones were the ones I stuck in the freezer for a while

it is sort of surprising that gut rot like the Cuba libre became so popular. I understand this is in part because of Cuba's relationship with America / sugar monoculture export but it was unambiguously swill of the time
