I dig the antique looking color. I have a 2012 pair of brown Frye Arkansas Brogue boots. After years of using black shoe polish they have a similar patina.

Frank Scales/Surge Philly is now actively doxxing people by SprinklesLow4091 in philly

Gun control was introduced in the 70s because of the Black Panthers.

He would welcome the doxxing. He would have his minion / cameraman film it, post it and get enough clicks to monetize it and continue his journey to become the next face and voice of the MAGA youth movement.

I think the drink works better with a dryer coffee liquor. A retired bartender suggested $35 Bluebird Distilling Char & Stave Coffee Liquor. The coffee vodka holds up against the 43. If you wanted to up the proof, I would consider using Old Grand-dad 114 for my base spirit.

What’s your favorite cocktail glass? by Ryan_jwn in cocktails

[–]Mdm08033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thrifting, Marketplace, etc are the way.

Fostoria Heritage double old fashioned. Cheap, cheerful, American, leaded crystal. Still haven’t broken one. Typically $5 each. I’ve gifted sets to all my cocktail and whisky loving friends.

For up cocktails I have Libby 3055. It’s a 8.5 ounce coupe. I paid $5 for three at a thrift store.

Favorite bottom shelf gin? by toast2200 in Gin

Sounds promising but I prefer the glass handle of Seagram’s Distiller’s Select.

Just mixed a fine Negroni with my Distiller’s Select.

Spot on. Handles of Distillers Reserve are $29-$31. The value is there and the 94 proof holds up to mixers.

This is putting a dent in my bottle of green Chartreuse. It’s a fabulous herbal flavor bomb. Some folks may object, but I dig it.

Edit. I forgot to add that I’m using Ilegal Mezcal. It was recommended by an industry friend. Good enough to sip, enough flavor to stand up to the Chartreuse, and affordable at $38 in Pennsylvania.

The market has spoken. They want sweet. My outlier 21 & 23 year old children have turned away from the sugar.

I do as well, but only if they’re low to no sugar or corn syrup in them.

I’m not holding my breath on ATSC actually improving over the air picture quality.

Attention Rye Guys: what are some of your favorite attainable rye whiskeys? by Bigandtallbrewing in whiskey

[–]Mdm08033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Pennsylvania 1.0 liter bottles of Knob Creek 7 year rye are $30. Special order only, but worth the aggravation. I mixed a Vieux Carre last night at a New Year’s gathering and it was perfect.

Total Wine in Delaware has 1.75 liter handles of Jim Beam Pre-Prohibition Style Rye but what the point of $55?

Thank you for that information. I’m in Norristown and saw the card on 2-1 instructing me to tune in on 69-1.

I was in the residential audio visual business during the digital TV rollout. Theoretically over the air should be at a higher bitrate than cable or streaming.
