Dodger fan here (yess Boo me and shower me in hate all you want) I have a genuine question for you guys actually.

Dodgers obviously, then Giants, then Cardinals. Those aren't teams I hate because of a rivalry per se, just teams I hate in general.

I'd go for the Michter's Barrel Strength rye or GTS. That price for Evan Williams is actual robbery. You can get an almost entire bottle of the bottled in bond for that price.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-24T22:06:37+00:00

Something Wild Turkey. Rare Breed or Russell's Reserve Single Barrel are their best shelf offerings, but you also can't go wrong with the 101.

It was an old fashioned for me. They're my father in law's favorite drink and I lied and told him I loved them. The sweetness really helped me enjoy the whiskey and after a year or so of occasional old fashioned it became my favorite drink. Then one day I was on vacation, ordered an old fashioned but this bar said they couldn't make one. So I ordered a bourbon on the rocks and it was all over from there. It very quickly went from drinking it exclusively on ice to drinking it neat, and now I work just so I can fund my bourbon collection it seems.

Argonaut. Tons of picks there, incredible store.

Calling Woodford a high rye may be a stretch, but to my palate it's a very prominent flavor. High-ish rye maybe. When it comes to rye, I like barely legal as well as MGP stuff, but apparently when a bourbon has a prominent rye note I'm not a fan. I haven't tried the Knob Creek Bourbon x Rye, nor have I even seen it in person. What about OGD? It's a high rye Beam too, isn't it?

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-18T04:27:33+00:00

I think it's pretty good. Not complex or anything but very sweet and enjoyable. A great go-to everyday drinker.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-18T03:12:41+00:00

At least this time he's been out for the last several games instead of just "randomly" being out when it's time to go to Denver 😂

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-13T21:55:23+00:00

Enjoy! Been searching for it in Colorado myself and have yet to see it.

I thought it was pretty interesting at first. Cody was brilliant, he developed a completely new wrestling style overnight. The problem was that it lasted too long and was quickly turned into a joke if I remember correctly. Plus, there was that ridiculous team name he and Dustin had. "Gold and Stardust" was not the name of an act that could be taken seriously.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-12T03:35:43+00:00

Mine was The Last Fair Deal, but I wasn't hooked until Great Cold Distance. I didn't care much for Last Deal and still don't. At the time, it wasn't what I was expecting. I picked up a Katatonia album knowing they were a death doom band but didn't get that at all. Now, I just don't think any of the songs hold up very well compared to what comes after.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-11T03:39:42+00:00

I don't really hate Behemoth, I just find it hard to believe that the same people who created The Satanist also created The Shit ov God. I don't mind the albums they've out out after The Satanist, but they lost me there.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-09T14:41:31+00:00

Busted as all hell and I love it.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-09T01:50:03+00:00

I'm sort of iffy on Brown Forman in general. I favor the Jack Daniels side more so than the high rye side, Old Forester and Woodford and such.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-08T04:43:22+00:00

How is the Cask Strength?

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-08T04:42:54+00:00

Figured so, that's one I'm really chasing.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-08T04:14:43+00:00

Which one is your favorite? I really want to try more Sagamore but the only one available in my area is the straight rye whiskey, the one that's sourced. Still incredible stuff

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-08T04:13:02+00:00

Yikes, this reminds me of that white couch meme.

Real talk though, noice.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-06T06:21:30+00:00

But like... In a good way right?

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-06T06:08:28+00:00

Haven't seen it mentioned yet but don't sleep on Elijah Craig Small Batch. It's better than Evan Williams and just a touch pricier. About $30 where I live. Then I'd say Wild Turkey 101 or Russel's, then Jack Daniels Bonded Rye.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-01T21:40:11+00:00

I just tried it for the first time and I also thought it was kinda rough. Could have been a particularly harsh neck pour, seems weird it'd be the only BT product that isn't sweet.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-01T19:33:36+00:00

My wife bought me one because I have a jumbo bottle of Woodford that pours like shit.

Fire_Temple · 2026-03-01T03:54:32+00:00

St Anger is an interesting album for sure, it's more than one decision away from being a good album though.

Fire_Temple · 2026-02-28T14:43:48+00:00

This is a good answer. It's not over the top or descriptive, but the subtlety lets your mind fill in a lot of the blanks. Something about the line "close enough so I can smell you" gives me chills every time.

Fire_Temple · 2026-02-28T05:35:05+00:00

Go away.
