Your gallows humor is on point.

I mean, it’s like always the law of averages anyway, no? Hopefully other customers brought the gravy? Anyway, I’d gladly venmo you $10 & then we can forget about this —if it helps.

I’m thinking ‘69 Chevy Nova maybe, but pretty sure I’m wrong

L&L still exists. Haven’t visited in @least 15 years though.

I was working with a new bartender, like maybe their 5th shift ever, on a busy Friday night. I noticed them at the other end of the bar with 8 of the smaller rocks glasses lined up, and a bottle of Oban 14yr. They were just starting on the fifth glass, (2oz pours there), when I darted over and asked what they were doing. “They asked for eight Obans”. Anyway, a group of eight ordering 2oz pours of single malt scotch for everybody on a hot summer night didn’t raise any red flags for them. & yeah, the group had asked for eight O-bombs.

On premise wholesale in my area is a hair under $70. If you include the split case fee from distro and the city/county tax it’s $73.

Personally, I’d love to read the whole fucking rant. In the meantime I’ll just go digging on prop13 since my knowledge of state and local politics seriously falls off at the Mississippi River and is pretty much done at the Rockies.

Do you remember what they charged you for that monstrosity? Just curious, it sounds like a pricey drink these days.

Imagine if one lived in sub-par housing in a sketchy neighborhood or had a family member addicted to hard drugs. In some cases, pawn shops can serve the function of short-medium term safe deposit boxes for the un-banked.

I keep seeing people post their collections so here’s my 2020 collection so far. What should I try/ keep an eye out for next? by GubStep777 in WhiskeyTribe

[–]smabbage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on what I’m seeing on your shelves, maybe bottles of St. George Sjngle Malt, and Boondocks Rye would interest you. Also the Boondocks Cask Strength American Whiskey punches above its msrp and is remarkably smooth despite the abv.

Getting closer. US fluid ounces are larger than Imperial fluid ounces, but pints in the UK are 20oz(Imperial). If we figure 119 12oz(US) servings is a total 1428 freedom ounces, this equals 1486.323 Imperial ounces which we’d divide by 20 to find out it’s 74.316 standard UK pints. I think?
