while at a bar for a party w/ coworkers, i tried McSorleys Irish Black Lager.

not so great. better than average schwartzbier, but way too carbonated.

Hirsch Selection Small Batch Reserve

I was visiting the SC coast last week and picked up a bottle of Hirsch Selection Small Batch Reserve at a mom and pop shop. Save your money. To my way of thinking there are much better choices for $36+ per jar. To wit, Knob Creek at dollars less. I had higher hopes given it's 47% ABV. At 94 octane you'd expect a bit more taste. I'm guessing this bottling is a bit green as I could not find the age on the label. Mostly I find when bourbon is aged 6 years or more the bottler does not conceal that news. Live and learn.
 
We had a small scotch tasting/ JB Rare, then Glenmorangie 10 YO. Highland 15 YO and some Abalor 18 yo.

I am not a big Scotch drinker but I liked the Glenmorangie best.

You did fairly well in distinguishing the good one there.;) drinking62.gif

I've been drinking a lot of dirty martini's lately. I think I've been inspired by watching Sabrina over the weekend.

When I go out now I have to specify that I want a "gin Martini" (or I will get a Vodka one by default) which hits me as being so wrong. But then I've also had to tell bartenders how to make a Martini (as in they had no idea where to start).
