PokeJoe posted:rye is gross tbh idk how anyone drinks it in my experience there are three types of rye whiskey:
idk why people think they're gonna drink 3yo whiskey and have it be good. you wouldn't drink 3yo scotch would you? then why bourbon or rye? if you age those in oak for 8-10 years, guess what, they're also fuckin delicious!

i went to the liquor store around the corner friday afternoon to get some beers for neighborhood happy hour and sample some wine since they have a weekly wine tasting this time the "wine" "tasting" was a bushmill's rep pouring whole-rear end shots of whiskey, so that was a nice start to my weekend

You know every time I've tried straight burbon I've found it to have a really unpleasant licorice aftertaste. I'm guessing it's just inherent in the spirit and I don't care for it.

Are you trying the same bourbon each time? I hate licorice flavor and love bourbon. I remember Hudson Baby Bourbon being gross and maybe it had a licorice flavor. Definitely not a normal bourbon flavor.

botanist gin is great. if you're into it, a botanical gin that I actually like even more is Sheringham Seaside: https://www.sheringhamdistillery.com/spirits i don't know if it's available outside BC but if you can get your hands on it, it's really great as a sipping gin

I’m waiting for some of my locals to get acquired, they [sapporo] already got anchor brewing. golden state cider seems like they’re doing really well

looks like stone’s brands were secondary to Sapporo wanting to find a west coast location to brew another few hundred thousand barrels by 2024
