When I took that first sip, I was somewhat surprised. I reread the label and thought that Stone lied. Though they called it Saison, to me it said Wit, But when the chill subsided, I started to get it! There goes that clove and that sharp coriander, The flavors […]
As we have progressed into summer and with my dabbling in blueberry beers over, I reached into the beer fridge and pulled out yet another fruited up beer, Maggie’s Peach Farmhouse Ale from Terrapin Beer Company. Now, I’m not sold on fruit beers. I have some that I liked […]
On Thursday night, 4th of July eve, G-LO and I got together for a tasting of two well respected Japanese whiskies. No, G-LO didn’t leave his tony mansion in the Northeast and, no, I didn’t leave my shoebox-by-the-shore in Southern California. We instead met halfway, so to speak, […]
We all have a tequila drinking horror story. It usually involves salt, lime, and too many shots of crap tequila, or too many Margaritas on Spring Break in Cancun or some other sun drenched destination. Thankfully, tequila horror stories are not what this post is about… The Boozedancing […]
The following is a series of emails about the 2014 Whisky Jewbilee (and other sundry topics) between myself and Limpd… _________________________________________ G-LO: Whew! Looks like we dodged another bullet. I thought for sure that baseball and softball schedules would interfere with our latest NYC Whisky Excursion! While I […]
Recently, in an effort to expand my beer horizons, I had G-LO over to debate the merits of smoked beers. I had picked up two beautiful bottles from Brauerei Heller-Trum / Schlenkerla. The first was the Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock which I found to be fantastic. The second is the […]
The following conversation occurred 4 weeks ago… Mrs. Limpd: Hey! Do you still have that Apple Bourbon stuff? Let’s give it a try. G-LO: You can try it, but only if you take some tasting notes. Mrs. Limpd: Don’t you ever just drink to drink? G-LO: Of course I […]
After my recent foray into a blueberry beer with the Wachusett Blueberry Ale, I picked up another one to see if my impressions were the same. I selected a bottle from Fegley’s Brew Works; partly for the name, the Blueberry Belch and partly for the pretty graphics on […]
The other night, I was feeling a little peckish. Rather than grab a box of Oreos, I pulled out a bottle of Chocolate Stout. I am a big fan of Samuel Smith’s (love the Oatmeal Stout and the Winter Welcome; and the Benevolents enjoy the Organic Apricot Ale) and […]
By Jove they’ve done it again! Yet another Single Barrel release by The Balvenie, but this time around, they’ve gone the Sherry butt route. Here’s what the distillery has to say about this expression: The Balvenie’s 15 year old Single Barrel Sherry Cask has been matured exclusively in […]
