So good to see proper beers being brewed in the US.
Down in the Swamps, we have a local brewery in Abita Springs.....natural Artesian water there. The Abita Beer Brewing Company. My very favorite is the PURPLE HAZE, which has a breath of raspberry in it.....sometimes even a little sediment in a "hazy beer." Doesn't travel well on Draft, the...- Macbeth

Akubra Lightning Ridge
Well, guys, due to your powers of discernment, I have decided on the Lightning Ridge.....and just now placed my order with David Morgan. I sent a note to both Delmonicos and Everything Australian. Got a great note from Sam this morning stating that he can't get the Lightning Ridge in... -

Akubra Lightning Ridge
Good point, GTDean! Hadn't thought of that. Also it seems at the moment, more places have the Banjo. I DID find the Banjo for about $163. For sure I need a light color. Yep, RJR, summers are sweltering here. All us Southeast Louisianans have gills and webbed feet!! Oops! Just... -

Akubra Lightning Ridge
So glad to hear you guys really like BOTH hats. And Gargs, I'm actually thinking the very same thing: get the SAND Lightning Ridge NOW and get the Banjo later. (however, my doc says later for me might be a lot shorter than I'd like!) And, I'm a tad nuts myself: I always go... -

Akubra Lightning Ridge
Wow! You sound JUST like me! And just the person I was looking for to comment! So, now we have ONE vote for the Banjo! (They, both the Banjo and Lightning) don't seem to come up on the bay. I suppose it's because most people prefer to KEEP them. RJR....almost moved to Iowa.....but... -

Akubra Lightning Ridge
Akubra Banjo Patterson OR Lightning Ridge?? I'm pretty new to hats and have acquired a few in last couple of months off of the "bay" and have been fairly pleased. I bought an Akubra "Down Under" with the Indy Bash, which I really like! And a "Snowy River in Fawn" that I also like, but... -

What is your favorite Scotch Whisky?
Hudsonhawk: tried the Abelour and it was delicious. Especially around the Thanksgiving/Christmas time at parties. I had forgotten how very much I like that one. Need to get another bottle! JamesPowers: You are absolutely right! Cael Illa is not for everyone. Some reviewer mentioned it...- Macbeth

What is your favorite Scotch Whisky?
Over the past 5 years I've tried roughly 20 Scotches, searching for the few bottles that I might actually reorder. I have 3 friends that are Scotch drinkers and we each give the other 2 , 6 oz bottle of a scotch we have so we can sample without breaking the bank I've narrowed it to these...- Macbeth

Who else grinds coffee?
First post! I'm one of those coffee geeks I suppose. Have a Baratza Virtuoso grinder and a Cona Vacuum Brewer. I've found that coffee ordered from Paradise Roasters in Minneapolis is absolutely the best I've ever tried. Order, they roast the beans , and promise 3 days from roast to your...- Macbeth
