Members six acre lake Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Every once in a while i like to whip up a Bourbon Sundae after work... This entails nothing more then being to wiped to make myself a proper Manhattan so I just plop a maraschino cherry in my Bulleit Rye. Id like to propose a toast to all the blue collar mother {censored}ers who love their reverb pedals. CSB complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members onyxrhino Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 I always went with cognac after a long shoot, but your solution doesn't sound bad either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members six acre lake Posted April 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Yay reverb Nice pic. You good Sir are doing it right. No one has made a better verb...yet... then Malekko, in my opinion. ChristianATL and I were just talking about those cheap black Big Muffs and how they went from cheap as {censored} 40 dollar used steals to high ticket items. I regret selling mine when prices were super low. I did like the sound of it though... I sold it because I was recording at the time and falling hard down the dirt box flavor station.

Members Crxsh Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Recently had a proper old fashioned with Bulliet that was awesome... but as far as rye goes, I really prefer Russell's Reserve. And after hitting 5 distilleries a couple weekends back, I've gotta say that Wild Turkey was a really pleasant surprise overall. Buffalo Trace is still my favorite, but I really enjoyed the experience @ Wild Turkey. Their barrel proof "Rare Breed" bourbon was the highlight of the trip. (Other than getting a private tasting w/ Maker's Mark Master Distiller Greg Davis.) Also planning to pick up a bottle of Four Roses Small Batch sometime soon. That's a great bourbon.

Wild Turkey gets a bad rap. Its a shame too because as a mixer in a traditional Mint Julep or an Old Fashioned it really shines. Nothing to complex and it lends itself to other ingredients.

Members six acre lake Posted April 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 My lady likes to bust balls because all my food / pleasures are crazy hip right now and in Brooklyn we have no shortage of places to go. Tons of BBQ, Whiskey bars, Ol time Butchers with "green" friendly product, microbrew bottleshops and charcuterie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Felix959 Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 My girlfriend (a cookbook author now) makes a staggeringly good maple-bourbon ice cream and a ginger caramel sauce. That'd make a fine base for a sundae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sommy Posted April 26, 2012 Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Bulleit Rye is my current whiskey mistress. I was under the impression that the Knob Creek Rye wasn't supposed to be out until July, but one of the local liquor stores had it, so I picked that up last night. Oh man. So good. Not $40 good, but good nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was super jazzed to be going to Nashville to catch the Godspeed show there then stick around for a week in search of magical whiskey treats... Everywhere was the same old {censored}, Crown, Jack or Jim... No thank you. Yes I realize Kentucky is the king but Tennessee should have offered more.

Beirkraft is one of my fav spots in my neighborhood. The bottle selection is OK but what is the hook, line and sinker is the always rotating draft selection and those sandwiches... My god those sandwiches are like the best gift ever. Finish up that sandwich and pint with a sea salt caramel and you are gold. Do you work there?
