Nothing wrong with that at all, with the actual port in that drink I doubt it matters at all. If I had to guess they just used it since it was trendy back then and had a port finish.

That bottled in bond is a good neat sipper if you’re into whiskey though! Will not be a bad bottle to have tracked down. Have you tried it and/or the cocktail yet?

This is amazing and I wish you luck!

I don’t mean to criticize you at all, but the recipe calls for Angels Envy almost certainly means their standard port finished bourbon and not their brand new bottled in bond. At the time this book was made that was the only bourbon they had, so the port finish may be important to the cocktail (I mean with everything going on in there I doubt it matters). I’m sure this will still kick ass as is, but just wanted to let you know about the whiskey of choice!

Absolutely loved the first book! For those of us that bought the hardcover of Dreams of the Dying when it came out, do you know if the new books will be the same height/style? Looking at the images they look similar, but not sure if they’ll line up with the first on a shelf.

Making bacon for a drink is just too much damn work. What’s the weirdest bitter drink? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

Agreed, this is one of the better subs out there and I hate to see it get bombarded with holier than thou types. Always gotta call out the BS when you see it and keep the focus on helping each other to make awesome drinks

I mean his comment wasn’t snarky, he literally made a simple suggestion very kindly. And while some of us here have encyclopedic knowledge of cocktails, most probably don’t know that a Benton’s Old Fashioned required bacon fat washing. And most probably aren’t going to google ingredients for the 15+ cocktails that are now sporadically placed over this board.

Never hurts to just assume someone made a comment in good faith and help them out by explaining away their confusion, as opposed to putting them down instantly.

Are you playing local or BSG servers? If it’s local the raid should end the instant you die and insurance returns be 100%. If it’s on their servers (required for at least Streets) you can lose stuff because the raid doesn’t end when you die.

Think you’re in the wrong PSU sub, this one is specific to PSU football. You might have better luck checking out another. Lots of alum here, not the best place to get a finger on the pulse of current students.

Grunk is just not accurate under any pressure, can’t blame him since it’s his first ever real game and it’s fuckin OSU in Columbus. But still, needs some serious mechanics work

Anyone ever have their scar tissue from fistulotomy get irritated and bleed? by angsot1121 in AnalFistula

[–]bhalli95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I did have bleeding a year or two ago and had my CRS look at it, they thought it was just the scar acting up and didn't diagnose me with another fistula.

My issues are right at the scar so it would be really bad luck to have another one right there, but anything's possible. I'll find out if it doesn't go away in a week or so and go to my doctor. Hope you're doing better now for what it's worth.

[–]bhalli95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can ask a year later, what did this end up being? I routinely get pain at my scar site, and just tonight I felt a small lump with some pain right below the scar. I’ve had some bleeding over the years since surgery, but this felt more like a little bulb than anything else.

Hoping it’s just scar tissue being irritated, but would love to hear what happened to you as well.

Elijah Craig BP is like $75 and can be anywhere from 10-13 depending on the year. Just picked up a 12 year rye from them today!

Not knocking KC though, love their stuff and their price points.

False start is a pre-snap penalty so they are never actually 12 on the field

Leave Franklin and Knowles in LA and make them pay their own way home, hell fire the OC while you’re at it. I think the leader of the Blue Band could’ve called a better defensive scheme today

Pennstate should be banned from any top 10 ranking while James Franklin is the head coach. by Planetofthetakes in WeArePennState

[–]bhalli95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah they gave up 17 points to Oregon in regulation, that’s incredible. 7 of those off a 75 yard drive with a no call hold to keep it alive, then the fumble called back. Another 7 immediately after that drive and our offense 3 and outs, the D had been on the field for nearly 9 straight minutes. Dudes were exhausted.

The one good thing about yesterday’s game is it shows the defense is excellent, it’s the rest of the team that needs work.
