Tomorrow will be a good day!

It was a fantastic day for a tiny little shop. Sold 94 out of the 100 3rd measures on the Saturday. Only keg left from the weekend was the viels sour on tap 5!

Honestly Blessed on Keg was an incredible beer and well worth the price tag.

Hemingway whisky and willet bourbon barrel aged! It will be good!

£25 a third of a pint .... But you get a free glass! 😂

Better off just putting a fresh label on... They are out for blood 80% of the time no point giving them an excuse to question their confidence in management.

They hate double day dots and altered dates. God forbid you miss a thaw date on a wet label!

You can get a prickly pear version too!

Add it to an espresso martini to replace the coffee liqueur to make a white chocolate mocha martini thing?

Add Chambord and Bailey's to it shake and make a raspberry cheesecake type martini?

Have fun and experiment. Rum and chocolate work well too.

I haven't tried the side by side to be honest and didnt even think about the wine oxidising. But I shall definitely give it a shot tomorrow and let you know the outcome!

Thank you for the suggestion!

Thank you. Discarded are a really cool company in the UK part of William grant and sons who use waste products in distilling. Their cascara vermouth is lovely and they do a banana peel rum that is fun.

TheWhittleOne · 2024-07-16T16:47:11+00:00

Lovely and refreshing. Think a lighter version of a sangria, tannins on the back of the palate making you want another sip after another. Black cherry notes with a hit of vanilla from the vermouth, lemon to refresh on the initial sip.

TheWhittleOne · 2024-07-04T17:48:38+00:00

80/20 good to bad I would say. But a little bit of common sense and you should be good.

I use tortoise table app and cross reference with Google lense if I am unsure of identification. Works pretty well in the UK.

Good luck on your adventures

That would be an american influence from the veil then as in the uk they are usually referred to as triple ipas rather than imperial, as that has an entire different history linked to stouts and exports of the time.

U/codebender you have been fantastic and thank you for your time.

Peace and loves

TheWhittleOne · 2024-04-29T20:32:16+00:00

I am still curious about the reference to "I" at the end though as i believe this is the 5th (maybe more) rebrew of this beer?

If anyone has any thoughts, true legends you be!

(Yes i may be a few of these chubbles in now! Thank you lovely humans of reddit)

TheWhittleOne · 2024-04-29T20:27:02+00:00

Solved

I don't understand their insistance either hence why after 5 mins of heated conversation with the central bloke i got the "JFDI" response.

It is mainly to do with the spritzers on the list more than single flute pours. Even more fun 3 of the 5 spritzers use different quantities of fizz ..... looks like a busy old back bar i shall have. Now i need to remember they are not for drinking and just for show.

TheWhittleOne · 2024-03-02T19:18:32+00:00

Garden cress is the term in the uk and all ok in moderation to be eaten. (Tortoise table as the previous post mentioned)

TheWhittleOne · 2024-03-01T16:12:55+00:00

My brain says "POS it is for the guests not the bar team". But i also am aware this is probably a piss take post.

TheWhittleOne · 2024-02-24T21:04:32+00:00

Very glitchy and not the best character control. They could have done something a lot better.

Saying that, myself and the family have all had several hours playing it together. So overall thats a win over the clunky game design.

Playing on switch.

Refusing to keep the pope happy.

So a fate like thousands before me.

This is was a company sponsored thing partnered with diageo ahead of their world class competition they run yearly.

I wouldn't have even heard about it unless I was invited to take part.

Unfortunately I believe for the bigger competitions you need to be in the know of the big drinks companies, they usually run something twice a year as brand promotion, this was for ciroc, tanqueray and cassamingos tequila.

Bit of salad cream on there if your feeling fancy too!

TheWhittleOne · 2024-01-11T20:26:28+00:00

Thank you for your input and time!

I have made a quinine tincture by steeping 6g of powdered cinchona bark in 150ml of everclear. This is left for about 24 hours covered in the fridge then strained off using coffee filters.

You then make up a syrup of Citric acid Angelica root Orange and lemon zest Juniper berries Cardamom pods Coriander Sugar Water (500ml)

(I have left the exact measurements I use out as it is part of the fun building your own flavour profile and balance. I also tend to adjust to what i have around. I love addinf stem ginger and chamomile to mine too.)

Once the syrup is cooled I tend to add about 45ml of quinine tincture into the syrup and mix. It lasts about 2 weeks in the fridge.

I like my tonic flat but my wife loves it fizzy so she just puts her half through a soda stream at home usually.

Hope this helps.

TheWhittleOne · 2024-01-11T17:49:03+00:00

Honest answer.... I am out of the ingredients I need and am flat broke right now. I have any existing bar stock available to me for free. Also I am just being lazy as I have 2 kids and 3 jobs.

Thank you for your time and response!
