Campari and Soda--so refreshing
:eeek:
Campari and Soda--so refreshing
Hi James
I've finally gotten moved in and have Rittenhouse Rye (bottled in bond), Maraschino cherries, and bitters. I do alternate the old-fashioned with Zing Zang and Bud (red Beer) and some cheap port. Gotta keep those arteries clear you know.
Tonight will be a multiple Old-Fashioned night, I spend 4 hours at the Oklahoma state trooper station getting allowed to get an OK Driver's license, and then drove a few miles away to a tag agency to actually get the license. Just the line to get the "we'll call your number" took an hour and a half.

I louched a glass of 1940s Legendre Herbsaint at Tales of the Cocktail, some very lucky people were able to sample the contents of the glass.
I dunno. That commercial made the name sound like flatulence. :rofl:
Perhaps that ship's horn was not a good idea to use in the commercial.
The beer is still delicious, if it's any consolation. Plus, it's right in my price range at 10.99 for a 24 case.
It doesn't give you the ship's horns eh?
Nope, actually comparable to Blue Ribbon at almost half the price.
Hi
The Blue Ribbon ain't too bad, but one I can't ever drink again is Old Milwaukee. Can you say Montezuma's Revenge? Twice, once per twelve pack. What's in that stuff. I haven't had Blatz since I was home from college one weekend. I'll have to search Oklahoma and see if it exists here. At least Schlitz is cheaper here. The Blatz was a plain old decent beer, not something I went back to look for, but I did drink every last one of them. I can't say that about Coors Light. I'll have to go get some Little Kings for this weekend.

Blue Ribbon's always my first choice. I love the stuff. Funny, I have a friend who swears by Old Milwaukee. I think you hit Blatz on the head, too. Schlitz is fantastic, but really pricey here. If I buy it in bottles, it's almost a buck a bottle.
Hi
My two favorite beers are Guinness and Newcastle Brown Ale. I drink a lot of ales, and more full bodied lagers etc, but money being money, I probably drink 3-6 Buds for every Guinness I get my hands on. I drink a LOT of red beer in the summer, more refreshing somehow. I think I'll go get some Schlitz on the way home, it MAY be 3.2 beer though here in Oklahoma.
