What's everyone drinking tonight?
I've got my second Tanqueray gin martini, stirred, not shaken, in an ice cold glass kept in the freezer with just a wisp of Cinzano dry vermouth and 3 pimento and almond stuffed olives.

It's not my favorite gin though. My favorite is Plymouth Gin.

So, anyone else enjoying a beverage?

3. My hard liquor street cred has been well established, so I
don't mind saying I'm drinking something fairly tame tonight: Spire Mountain Draft Pear Cider. Yum! It's accompanying my traditional my-wife's-out-with-the-girls meal, Beef and lamb gyros with salad and hummus. Good eatin'!

31. "I'm not drunk, I'm just drinking"
That's one of the blues-singing Alberts. Can't remember if it's King or Collins.

10. Vanilla vodka and Coke...
...or vodka and Vanilla Coke.

And yes, I've tried vanilla vodka and Vanilla Coke. Overkill. And the two vanillas aren't quite compatible.

14. Shiner Bock
From Shiner, Texas. Pretty good stuff. Brewery was started in 1909 by Czech and German immigrants, 'natch, 'cause most of those rednecks down in Texas wouldn't know a good beer if you hit'em over the head with it. (I used to live there, so I got slammin' rights, hehe.)

33. Good stuff... weird head though...
I used to drink gallons of that stuff at The Asylum in Washington DC. 25 cents per pint on Wednesdays I think it was.

21. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you're sick
but are you at least getting a good buzz? I have a very low tolerance and can remember a fine Robitussin/beer high...

Get well soon. I think I'll make myself a cup o' tea.

28. Excellent choice, populistmom! Mild bouquet, tingly on the tongue,
and a nice unobtrusive finish. Don't let it sit. Best chilled or on the rocks. Enjoy! :beer:

40. Stella Artois
Yes, I know it is the crap beer of Europe. Wifey bought a case cuz the distributor ran out of my favorite JEVER Pilsner. I'm still wondering how the substitution worked...
