So, what are YOU drinking tonight???

[cookiedough]

I'm a wuss compared to the majority on here,  I drink wine coolers, preferably Mikes hard lemonade varieties, much more so than I should.

[BradValk48237]

Maker's Mark Cask Strength....... neat   108 proof or something

B

[Moonshot_1]

Black Velvet Toasted Caramel on the rocks.

[Gavin_Sons]

Bacardi 151, straight moonshine 160 prof,  . Not any more boys, I use to do that stupid crap in my younger days. I feel it for a week after now. Might have a beer with dinner if we go out to eat.

[Mr Whiskey]

If I was still drinkin'..........................

[R J]

Lemonade.

[FryeVRCCDS0067]

We really need a "like" button!

[FryeVRCCDS0067]

Svedka vodka and ice water. Maybe a Little Kings Ale a little latter.

Guess I'm cheap and easily amused.  

I gave up soft drinks about a year ago for health reasons. 

[Dave Ritsema]

Then bourbon, bourbon, bourbon.

Knob Creek, Buffalo Trace, Makers Mark and the number one Clyde Mays.

So Britman, please tell me more about this Clyde Mays. We apparently share some of the same affinities as your above choices are ones that I enjoy as well. I have not heard of Clyde Mays until now.

Thanks for the heads up on the Clyde Mays. Had to go a few places to find it but found some for $28. I found it to be surprisingly complex for a moderately priced whiskey. 

[Pappy!]

Tonight.....Zaya rum, on the rocks. Super smooth and nice!

[Pappy!]

Switched it up tonight!

Bombay Gin, fresh squeezed lime juice, and enough honey to keep the pucker factor at bay, in a rocks glass mostly filled with ice. Nice Summertime drink!

[fudgie]

3 Blue Ribbons at bike night.

[Serk]

I'm slumming it tonight, Clown Oil Apple... Yummy, but don't tell my Whisky Snob friends!

[houstone]

Yellow Tail Cabernet-Shiraz, after winning the hockey semi-final playoff game!  Woo-hoo!

[Cliff]

"Not your father's root beer"   good stuff.

[Dave Ritsema]

I'm slumming it tonight, Clown Oil Apple... Yummy, but don't tell my Whisky Snob friends!

Have you tried their new Rye offering? I kinda like it.

[Serk]

No I haven't, but I'll add it to the mental shopping list to give it a try, thanks!

[tbone]

Jim beam black, buffalo trace, or Elijah Craig 12yr. We did a whiskey tastin in the garage not to long ago. Had about 6 of us. about 10 dif choices. The ones above seem to be very well liked. I am sure there are many more that we should try.

[Wizzard]

Homebrew bourbon infused dark stout for me tonight.

[3fan4life]

Can't run with you big dogs. Ezra Brooks for me tonight 

I've been using Ezra to water down my Coke for quite awhile now. 

[3fan4life]

Iced Tea For Me But, I'm Serving Apple Pie And Uncut Clear Shine To My Guests.   

Sounds like you're a man that knows how to treat his guest very well! 

[Cattman]

Yeungling for beer and Buffalo Trace or Bakers Road Small Batch #4 for burbon.

[henry 008]

coors lite or a yeungling and yagermeister    wife will be having dragonberry with lemonade and cranberry juice... 

[heavyd]

I have one glass left in one of these bottles, so I will probably pick up another on my way home.

[WoodyFL]

The Macallan 12 yr.....nothing comes close to the taste of this Scotch!

Bob

[Dagwood]

Macallan 12 yr  But most of the time it's Patron Silver or Cap Morgan White. On the rocks, period.

[Pappy!]

Woohoo....Happy Friday everybody!

Just had a Redd's Apple Ale. Pretty refreshing after a hot muggy day.
Later on am thinking I will ease into a little Santa Theresa (the rum not the gal) on the rocks.

[Gavin_Sons]

I'm  having a 44 oz coke icee from the circle K. Wanted the dreamsicle flavor but it was not frozen yet. Maybe ill get a little wild later and have some sweet tea 

[..]

Then bourbon, bourbon, bourbon.

Pleased to hear it.

Same as most every night: BEER.

“I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.”  William Shakespheare, Othello; requoted Mattie Ross (Kim Darby), True Grit.

EDIT: I wrongly attributed the quote to Shakespheare. The actual quote from Othello is: "O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains!"

[crow]

If you're a fan of Baileys Irish cream,   if you can find it, Carmichael's Heather Cream. 
Like Baileys, but made from Scott's wiskey instead of Irish.

[..]

Winter is a coming so time to lay in a few bottles to ward off the winter chills.  

http://buyingguide.winemag.com/catalog/two-stars-handcrafted-kentucky-straight-bourbon-whiskey

$19.99 at my local "Total Wine"

I found it to be sweet
Female friend found it to be a little astringent.

Then for $10.99

http://www.acespirits.com/southshot-bourbon.html

Nowhere near as full bodied as Clyde May's but for the price.............

Then for $17.99

Watkins Select Maple Bourbon

A good slam of maple in the nose and on the tongue.

Wouldn't want to drink too much of this due to the high sugar content.

Can't find any reviews. It may be new. There were 3 other flavored bourbons from the same supplier.

Only 35% so not too much bite.

Of the 3 I like the Two Stars and the Maple.

The Southshot will be good for mixing.

I nearly bought a bottle of Clyde Mays

http://www.bevnet.com/news/spirits/2015/clyde-mays-whiskey-debuts-special-reserve/

but balked at the $70 price. That's nearly 2 regular bottles and I can't imagine it being much better!!!

I looked for but didn't find

[Hoser]

Cheap whiskey and Doctor Pepper.   Hoser 

[big d]

Got spoiled on Petron tequila...margaritas on the rocks, oh yeah

Try don Julio 1942. Puts Petron to shame.

[Charlie McCready]

Dave Ritsema, I never did find the Spring Mill Bourbon. Are they still in business?

I did find some Bayou Spicy Rum in Louisiana enroute to GOTF in April. That was pretty good.

Any cheap bourbon/whiskey/whisky!

If drinking a margarita why an expensive tequila?

That's seems like mixing Coca-Cola etc with a good brown liquor?

[Pappy!]

Two fingers of Crown Apple tonight....nice and light with no bite.

[Dave Ritsema]

Dave Ritsema, I never did find the Spring Mill Bourbon. Are they still in business?

Either they went out of business or they simply ran out of product. I liked it alot and bummed that I couldn't find anymore.

Since then Clyde Mays or Basil Haydens are my favorites for a moderately priced bourbon.

Something that was a bit of a suprise was Cleveland Whiskey. They have a new process that allows them to make a relatively nice bourbon in 6 months by aging it under pressure with the charred and cut up oak barrels in the pressure chamber. I purchased a bottle expecting it to be really bad and it wasn't bad at all!
