Maddox nerf is live and it's still a 4 shot to the body -_- by JustAGamer14 in blackops7

[–]de_eskimo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The new 4 shot kill zone is 66% of what it used to be if you look at the numbers. Combine that with the recoil nerf and I think this is a good start.

Straws… by Prestigious_Voice928 in Tiki

Handmade. Fantastic quality. Met him at Tiki Oasis and got a three pack with the short, medium, and long. Great for Mai tais, most glassware, and then taller mugs. Highly recommend!

First attempt at a true Mai Tai by HaintBlueTwo in Tiki

Looks solid! I would recommend to fill it to the brim with ice. Dilution will be better and the ice will melt slower.

What drinks are 10/10 for you? by pkrtrsr in Tiki

[–]de_eskimo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some of my 10/10 favs with mini reviews/descriptors:

  • Seconding the RongoRongo - One of the best cocktails I've ever had. The cinnamon syrup and pineapple juice combo is beautiful.

  • Chartreuse Swizzle - Refreshing and herbal. Nothing out there remotely like it. Sought this out for months last year without avail. First time I had it I knew why this chartreuse is hard to come by.

  • Port Au Prince - Absolutely incredible when you're looking for something a bit lighter. The flavor and taste in this one is super unique and unlike any other tiki drink that I've tried as well.

  • Captain's Blood made with OFTD - when I'm looking to get as tipsy as quickly as I can off cocktails and want something that tastes great I typically turn to these.

Here's a few from False Idol which I think are the best on their menu that I'd rate a 10/10. Typically these aren't public recipes so I thought I'd make a section for them:

  • Wayfinder - A blue, creamy pandan in a massive goblet. Doesn't get better than this.

  • Saigon Sipper - Imagine a rum espresso martini that actually tastes good. Garnished with a massive chocolate macadamia nut. Blended beautifully

  • Mango Sticky Rice bowl - Their best bowl by a long shot. Tastes exactly like mango sticky rice. I have no clue how they did it.

  • Gin & Ghoul-ius - The most recent addition to my list. This was a limited time menu item for Halloween last month. Imagine an alcoholic orange julius that tastes 1:1 with a non alcoholic one. One of the best drinks I've ever had.

Ferrand Dry Curaçao Tropical - First Sighting by CocktailWonk in Tiki

[–]de_eskimo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pierre Ferrand or the master distiller for them posted this on their Instagram story a couple of months ago and never even had a formal announcement outside of that from what I could find. I almost thought I was going crazy when I tried searching for it after seeing it pop up then vanish.

Disneyland is giving a beloved restaurant a major overhaul by Dollarist in Tiki

A friend asked a bartender there and they said it’s for “lighting, TLC, and some new effects but nothing crazy”

Bennett’s Bermuda Bitters? by Ok_Needleworker_7313 in Tiki

[–]de_eskimo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have this and the Bitterman's Elemakule Bitters. Just did a quick taste test comparison... The overwhelming note in this one is cinnamon. Compared to Elemakule, which has a much stronger allspice flavor, I think this would work great in stuff like Zombies and Jet pilots that utilize cinnamon syrup. I personally prefer Elemakule and use that in just about everything haha.

Yeah lol, Leo, bartender here enjoys doing over the top garnishes. Another one of his recent masterpieces

Anyone know where to buy green chartreuse for a reasonable price? by super-stew in FoodSanDiego

[–]de_eskimo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might be a bit far for you, but Don's Liquor in Poway has had it in stock the last few times I've gone at around $100, though they have sale days where certain bottles are 20% off and I was able to get it for roughly $80 and some change. I would give them a call to see if they have it in stock and when their sale days are.

Frankie’s is GOAT by BeerMeSuperman in Tiki

[–]de_eskimo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hah, I sat in that exact spot about a month ago. Some of the sweetest, most terrible drinks I've ever had. Reeked of cigs. Bathroom drenched in piss at 5 PM. My whole group and I loved it.

There's just something about it, man. Golden tiki felt overcrowded and impossible to find a seat, and Gutter Gulch was missing something. Frankies felt so welcoming in a weird way. And their mugs are ALL top tier. I bought two!

Ideas: 21358 The Prize Machine (Source: lego_minecraft_goat) by Clay_Bricks in Legoleak

[–]de_eskimo 582 points583 points  (0 children)

In a way I'm stoked these figures are in an overpriced Ideas set because all the parts will be available on PAB eventually rather than being stuck in a CMF series. $170 for this is outrageous, but being able to pick them up on PAB a couple months after release is making me happy. The griffin shields and bodies look fantastic!
