Since Thanksgiving was relatively early this year, I thought that the Holiday Season (i.e. Black Friday to New Year’s Day), would go by at a leisurely pace. I couldn’t have been more wrong! The last week of November and the entire month of December were a blur, and […]
By now you should know the drill. The Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America sends up some samples from their latest Outturn, and we divide them up and review them. Our last Outturn sample pack included the following: Cask No. 3.184 aka “Arabesques of ash and high kicks […]

Before we get to today’s booze news, the “It’s just the booze dancing…” crew would like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas! We hope it’s filled with joy and happiness (and of course some responsible booziness!) as you spend time with family and friends. Cheers […]
I received a text message from our good friend The Alemonger a few weeks ago which included the photo shown above, along with the following message: GET TO WORK! At first I was a bit confused (this is a normal reaction when The Alemonger sends you a text […]
