I looked on the front label. Then I looked on the back label. I even looked on the label that’s wrapped around the neck of the bottle. I was in search of the answer to this question: “What’s the ABV?”. Somewhat frustrated, I ignored the ABV question and […]
Photo Courtesy of The NYC Office aka @SarahMaxPix It’s a pretty simple story: a droplet of water vapor condenses and freezes, then nearby droplets evaporate which is kind of strange since it is a wee bit cold out, and that vapor sticks, freezing to our little friend making […]
At the end of January, I received an email from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America (SMWSA) announcing that we would soon be receiving a small Valentine’s Day gift in the mail. As a general rule, I don’t care for Valentine’s Day, but when there’s delicious whisky […]
Back stories. Love em! Can’t get enough of em! So before I get to my review of the Italian liqueur that you see in the above photo, let me tell you a bit about how I got my grubby mitts on this sample… ______________________________________________ Way back in late […]

This review of the Innis & Gunn Rum Aged is Beer Review #2 of the three Innis & Gunn beers we received in the mail a few weeks back. At first I thought that Limpd had already reviewed this one, but upon closer inspection, it appears that he […]
