Bought one of the new Sapporo summer beers (Japan release). It's actually a happushu, but it's surprisingly good. Almost as good as the Sapporo Black Label (aka Draft), but the aftertaste is a little too bitter. Exellent for a happoshu, but not as good as the new Mugitohp (a new happoshu tat actually tastes like good beer!). Since it's so close to the Black Label, I'll just stick with that.for $0.80 more per 500ml can.

All I recognize in this post is "Sapporo". Reading it reminds me of listening to a bunch of squirrels talking...I have no idea what it all means!!! Good stuff.

Ripe, sweet and juicy with amazing balance of tannis. Great LBV for the price. Enjoyed a few glasses last night with a smoke, perfect combo.

Having some JAB EXO Rum. It is made by one of the Bacardi brothers and only sold at their flag ship store here in the Bahamas. Hands down the best rum I have ever had. Smooth like no other, with vanilla and apricot flavors aplenty. You need to come to the Bahamas just for this.

I had an Avery Oktoberfest from 2010 IIRC It paired up great w/
an OR Viaje Satori Zen

 

[Fitze55]

1998 Io Santa Barbara County blend 88% syrah/6% grenache/6% mourvedre

Alcohol is not so hot and its gotten very earthy with age. Fun wine.

Dows 2003 Vintage Port,

Going to decant for 3+ hours and monitor its progress along the way.

Need to think of what cigar to enjoy with the port and then head inside at 9pm for The Walking Dead.

2007 bottles of what? Port? If so, I usually do not drink vintage port as its too expensive and usually go for the LBV's or single quinta's.

In the case of the 2003, I got two bottles 50% off. Each was $76 so for $40 a bottle with tax I could not say no.

Yep vintage port. The PA State stores had it online for BIG sale. I paid less than $20 a bottle for 2007 vintage port. I like it but typically don't buy it either due to price, but I couldn't pass that up.

 

[Skitalets]

Rum milk punch made with Legendario, definitely takes the edge off the cold!
