    A pilsner instead of the IPA I normally have, but I like to switch it up once in a while. After a long day of being in charge of keeping alive four kids (plus three visitors from the neighborhood), two cats, and a dog the size of a small horse, the flavor isn’t as important as the fact that I now get to have a beer with my feet up on the table.

    I’m drinking a hard cider right now for example, and its thoroughly delicious, one of my favorites. I might have some rosé bubbly wine later too if hubs doesn’t want it, but I gotta wait for him to get home first.

      Was looking through people’s comments and was going to comment hard cider as well, and yours was the final comment! What sort are you drinking?

      Today I had Blake’s Triple Jam, it is pretty good. Cider’s the only alcoholic drink I’ve ever had where almost regardless of the particular cider I don’t need to “get used” to the taste. Most of the time I dislike regular beer and hard liquor is to be tolerated, mixed drinks don’t count, that’s cheating (but delicious)

        I’m doing schilling excelsior tonight, it’s pretty delicious. Plus, there’s a giraffe in a helmet on it, which is adorable. They’re 8.4% though so I gotta be careful with them

      Damn, my new pack of yerba mate infused with pomelo arrived today. I just gulped down the whole cup in one big sip. Fucking delicious as a terere.

    Dr Pepper. I can never quite describe the way it tastes but I always drink it in little sips because the flavor is very savoury to me

    I have a drink I’ve nicknamed the one-and-done.

    • 2oz bourbon (I currently use Elijah Craig small batch)
    • 1oz citrus vodka (using Smirnoff)
    • syrup to taste (I’ve tried a bunch of different combos; currently using about .75 oz triple sec syrup and 1.5 oz homemade honey/peach)
    • top with soda or tonic (or don’t, I’m currently out)
    • garnish with lemon
    • sip slowly

    It lives up to the name.

    A pilsner. Locally popular brand called Mortiz. Why? It’s what’s on tap. It’s decent, one of the better industrial pilsners. The night is young and I expect to be drinking more beer tonight.
