Dang... you guys sound old. At the ripe young age of 45, I enjoy a large variety of victuals.
Beer ... I like much beer. I do enjoy various versions of American IPAs... many of these try to pour on the hops to ridiculous levels, and this I do not approve of. However, a nice balanced IP is a nice thing. I also enjoy lagers, pilsners, and other more moderate varieties. I do not typically care for stouts, farmhouse ales, or sours. Shiny, however, does enjoy those, so whatever. My favorite beer is still probably Kostritzer Schwarzbier. It would appear that Bitburger now owns them.... hopefully they leave it alone.
Bourbon ... This is a big part of my liquor interest lately. For day-to-day, I typically drink Bulleit. More rarely, I do enjoy me some . Somewhat more rarely, I enjoy and very significantly more rarely due to its....rarity... I'll have some . That last is almost impossible to acquire and very, very good.
Tequila ... less lately, but I still enjoy sipping some , , and .
Mezcal .. Despite what some may think, Mezcal is not tequila in any way. It's like comparing a Scotch and a Whiskey. I've been sipping some and some
Scotch .. My go to Scotch is , but it's too damned expensive. I've tried various others and they're decent, but I really enjoy MacAllan. I won't settle for less than 18 years, and that's in the $200+ price range last I checked. So... not drinking much of this lately.
In addition to good liqous, I've also been partaking of less-than-stellar Vodkas, Rums and Sakes. It's not that there aren't good liquors in these categories, I just never really acquired the taste. They just make for good mixers.
And there we are... I may drink too much.
It was fun to try a bunch of bourbons that I mostly didn't know, though the inclusion of Jack Daniels was unfortunate.
