Cheers lads.

At 8:24 AM, I'm just drinking me vitamin water. (Vitamin pronounced the British way... watched IT crowd last night, and it's affected me accent.)

And after what feels like a million gins and a sprinkling of beers I made it back from a 30th alive.

Also someone got engaged so that was fun too :)

I'm a non-drinker myself, but I do try to keep current on trends in alcohol consumption to assist my friends that do drink.

Old Speckled Hen is a popular beer around here of late.

For fun, I like to order a non-alcoholic Black Russian. If I get an empty glass, we know we got a bartender with a sense of humor. If I get an empty glass and we're billed for a Black Russian, then we know we got a bartender with a big ol' stick up his butt.

Spring is here for me. Switching off my Sonic winter blend (cranberry and vanilla) and over to my spring blend (blue coconut and vanilla). Yum.

I can only handle thicker beers during the winter months. Chocolate stout eh, I prefer and Imperial stout myself. High alcohol helps cut the thickness.

I have been digging the New Belgium Rampant imperial IPA for a while now. I just cant get enough IPA!

Dogfish Head 120 minute Imperial India Pale Ale,  if you can get a bottle or two. It was worth the $11 I paid for a 12oz bottle, I'd do it again. Comes in around 18%

Heard about it but never have seen it here locally. I'm headed to the Oregon/California next weekend. I'll see if I can't find any out there.

My liquor store gets a couple cases here or there. He has me on the list for 6 bottles when he gets another batch. Which was supposed to be last week but they delivered to the wrong location. When they told them to send it back to my store they took that as send it back to distribution. Never made it back into town ;(

Here my newly invented drinking game.  Watching Ancient Aliens on the history channel, Friday nights. Every time the narrator says "ancient astronaut theorists"  you have to drink.

Yum! Ive never tried a ginger been and Im not sure if I would like it. But I do love ginger so it might work.

The first ginger beer I made was off the charts overkill. Way too much ginger. I've found some more recipes and found that the recipe I used had way too much in it. I have a buddy that vacations in the islands a lot and I guess ginger beer is big there. So he's always asking me to make some. Compared to beer it's a rather simple process so here's to nothing.

This is an awesome recipe for alcoholic ginger beer. http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/30492-ginger-beer-recipe-scratch-brew-no-kit/

I find the better home made ginger beers use honey or dark sugars.

I didn't see this post before. I'll have to look it up when I get home and I'm not filtered. Didn't get a change to make Ginger Beer this summer. Fall is around the corner to Pumpkin Ale is on the list for the next few weeks.
