70 years? I don't think I've ever had enough money at a single time to buy that



If you put ice in it, I'll come by and kill you in person, fyi.

My dad bought this on a business trip nd I got to try some. It was k, but honestly i prefer J&D. Jack&coke is tha best drink u can get! Tried mixin this with coke but it wasnt as good =/.

great with coke and ice. Takes away the whiskey taste and gives you a nice buzz.

Give me a Jack and COke anyday. Had a shot of this and it was pretty boring.

Good with coke

I uncle got me a bottle... not bad but I ended up mixing it with mountain dew after the second glass.

Ice in a single malt is a sin. That's what blends are for. You pay a lot of money for the subtle flavours that are in a single malt. To mute them with ice is crazy. It ends up being no different than a blend except it'll cost you way more.

As far as beer glasses go I'll use a pint glass depending on the beer. Any traditional English style ale works perfectly fine in a pint glass. With most other beers I use my fancy glasses though. I pretty much have at least one glass for each style. Usually multiple lol.

Curious ... what is the purpose of the single drop of water in Scotch? I always see people do it and it's always seemed quite ridiculous to me.

I'm at the stage where I won't drink the beer from the bottle.

I'll use the pint for pretty much every beer that isn't an imperial stout/ipa, a scotch ale, a trappist or a barley wine.

It just brings the flavour out, especially if it's anywhere near cask strength. How much water you need to add depends on the Scotch really. Some don't take water very well and others do. Personally I don't usually add water. Personal preference. I just let my saliva dilute it.

I don't drink from bottles at all. Haven't in quite a while. I'm a bit crazy with my glasses though.

Having a Weihenstephaner Kristall Weissbier now in a pint glass (just kidding, in a weizen glass). Mmm bubblegummy goodness. A bit too carbonated for my liking but almost every wheat beer is. Still really nice. This is about as light tasting as I'll go with a beer and still thoroughly enjoy it.

Best Tasting Beer: tie between Oberon, Two Hearted Ale and Magic Hat #9, (though we have a ton of local micro-breweries around here that have ah-mazing beer)

Best "getting drunk" Beer: Steel Reserve 411...worst.hangover.ever!

Wost Tasting: Guiness - I do not understand why people think Guiness is soooo awesome. Tastes like bitter ass sweat to me! I rather drink Leinenkugal Creamy Dark than that.
