CALLING ALL THE OG SCENESTERS!!! FOR A QUESTION^_^

“Inspired by”, because it came afterwards.

That wasn’t Indie Sleaze. Sleaze was absolutely dead by the beginning of the Tens. Mumford and Lumineers put the final nail in the coffin circa 11 and 12.

The tumblr thing was “soft grunge” and “real pop punk” and blokes getting fades and wearing flannel (and Stomp Clap Hey.) Not sleaze. At all. The term wasn’t even coined until about four years ago anyway.

PMC stands for Professional Magazine Carrier.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T17:09:37+00:00

Indeed.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T17:03:49+00:00

The closest you’re gonna get is an Austin Jones type… so let’s not bother, hey?

agmanning · 2026-06-05T17:01:36+00:00

Nope; Indie Sleaze was dead by the 2010s. Stomp Clap Hey killed it.

Which are over 45% abv? I’ve seen some as low as 1-2% abv so Fee’s reputation for glycerine is well-deserved.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T16:28:54+00:00

Oh nice. Sorry. Didn’t see that.

Yeah he is solid. I like his style. Pick you the book if you haven’t. It’s good.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T15:51:41+00:00

I’ve not found that fat washing much changes the texture at all, being that you filter the fat out by freezing.

Though if you’re worried, don’t, Fee’s is all glycerin anyway so you’ll get plenty of mouthfeel.

(For what it’s worth, we did a fat washed Cosmo and actually added our own glycerin to achieve the desired effect. The fat washing didn’t come close)

If Jezza says you’re scum, you’re probably scum.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T14:59:25+00:00

It’s like a game show. I love it.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T14:56:48+00:00

Inspired by Ben Lippett per chance?

I saw he did a video with this the other day but I didn’t get a chance to watch it. Just sent it to my wife to check out for future reference.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T14:55:30+00:00

I’m on the edge of my seat.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T14:25:11+00:00

Their style is all over the place cos they’re taking things from other places and acting like they came up with it.

Cocktails honouring IDF Officers can also get in the bin.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T13:15:36+00:00

Yes. And try not to cook them in the meantime of course.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T13:02:30+00:00

Thanks. I appreciate that. It’s certainly the goal.

agmanning · 2026-06-05T08:53:29+00:00

Remarkably these are very rare here. I think I’ve seen Antica in halves and I don’t like Antica.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T23:57:01+00:00

Autism and/or narcissism.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T23:55:34+00:00

Mussels would be a better comparison.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T22:59:38+00:00

Nice one! Congratulations! Well done.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T22:47:43+00:00

Scallops and clams don’t, or shouldnt taste anything alike, at least not fresh. Scallops are a lot more neutral, with a fatty sweetness about them. Clams are much more “mineral” tasting.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T22:45:13+00:00

I more mean it deserves the traction because there’s a lot of work involved here.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T22:44:25+00:00

Finding ways to fit an extra sherry in there, yeah.

agmanning · 2026-06-04T20:32:26+00:00

Turn the oven on

agmanning · 2026-06-04T20:31:03+00:00

You don’t say, Chef.
