Beverage of the Night 1/22/06

[caudio51]

Good amount of malt, more than the hop flavor. An ok beer in my book. Probably wouldn't buy it again though.

Bottled - pasteurised.
Another fine addition to the Black Sheep Brewery range of premium bottled ales, our Holy Grail Bitter was specially commissioned to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Monty Python. It has a distinctive taste with plenty of fruity hops, and is full flavoured with a dry and refreshing bitterness.

Weyerbacher Heresy

Very good imperial stout. Nice and oaky with smokey notes. Finishes with a slight alcohol taste.

This incredibly intriguing Stout is made by aging our Old Heathen to perfection in Oak barrels that were used to age bourbon. Notes of Oak, whiskey, and vanilla meld beautifully with the roastiness of our Imperial Stout.

This incredibly intriguing Imperial Stout is made by aging our Old Heathen in some very famous Oak barrels that were used for aging bourbon! What do we have when we are done? A stout whose very essence has been enhanced. A stout whose complexity has been increased. A stout with notes of Oak, whiskey and vanilla melding together to create a new sensation. Have we gone too far this time? We don't think so. Heresy is a step above and a leap beyond the extraordinary. Taste it and see what everyone is talking about. 8.0% ABV

I should change the title.

What's your recipe?

[AZsteelman]

12 ounces Frozen Limeade
6 ounces Tequila
6 ounces Triple Sec

blend, drink, fall on your ass

[Wasch_24]

One and a half shots of tequila, ice, and then fill'er up with mix. :hysterica

Simple.

[AZsteelman]

how about my "heartburnless margarita"

60% 7-up
40% Tequila

good for when you are on a golf course...

[caudio51]

Any special mix? What is your choice of tequila?

[Wasch_24]

Nothing special. Right now we have some of Jimmy Buffet's gold tequila and "On the Border" sugar free mix. Usually we use Jimmy's mix too.

[AZsteelman]

always just use cheap tequila for mixing...don't waste the good stuff.....

[caudio51]

Ok now the real question. Salted or unsalted?

[Wasch_24]

In a restaurant...on the rocks with extra salt

At home...on the rocks without salt. I can't ever seem to get it right and the salt falling everywhere just ticks me off.

[caudio51]

They sell that special container for the salt. I am a beer guy myself, you guys know that. I need to branch out more.

[AZsteelman]

Yeah, I've got one of those...the container looks like a mexican hat! filled with salt, wet the rim of the glass and push the glass around in the container...

Yep :thumbsup:

[AZsteelman]

[Wasch_24]

Hmmm, I need to look into getting one of those.

Maybe one day I'll get out to AZ for some Margaritas!

[Wasch_24]

Hmmm, I think my inadequacies lie in properly moistening of the rim.

[caudio51]

Oh you have to get the rim really wet, even I know that!

I do drink them when other people have the supplies at hand.

[Wasch_24]

Buuurp!

Really? Wet you say?

Hmmmm, maybe I'll try that next time. :grinFU: :hysterica

[AZsteelman]

Todd, moisture is the key in lots of areas!

[caudio51]

Todd, moisture is the key in lots of areas!

:rofl:

[AZsteelman]

I guess Todd's just a little slow on the uptake?

[Wasch_24]

I've got two kids so I think I have one of those areas necessitating moisture covered. :jitb:

[AZsteelman]

I have no comeback for that one...ding, fries are done!

[caudio51]

LMAO @ the fries
