Who's drinking what?

26% ABV

Ya, its a is a low proof. It probably will be just another triple sec, but I am hoping for more. Its made with 100% Florida oranges, with a slight undertone of migrant worker.

 

[JKraver]

It was ranked as the number 1 best liquor produced Florida. So, I have high hopes and low expectations.

I'll send a bottle your way ...

There is an old liquor store a few towns away that buys out the inventory of others that are going out of business.
I've found some real gems there. I am going to go see if they have any.

I've had some rum made around the Siesta Key area, some Vodka from St. Augustine, and Palm Ridge Reserve Florida whiskey. I am going to have to try some of
St. Pete Distillery's offerings.

Lucky, my dad had a 20k paperweight. Dentists should keep their nose out of the lab business. Then again a dentist is only as good as his lab. So if the dentist is not so good he could get away with cerec.

Let me know, I am fascinated with that area. I call it the Portland of Florida. It is basically mecca for the Florida hipsters.

 

[JKraver]

Hmm, that sure makes it sound like I am a hipster, I like good food, good drinks, and a good time. Hipsters while strange and sometimes gross tend to be very up on their food/drink.

St. Pete is hipster mecca?

Ever been there?

Ever been there?

Yes, many times used to go to a ton of punk rock shows at Jannus Landing.
Was there last weekend. Are you calling me a hipster??LOL

Lol, possibly do you wear skinny jeans, with a beard, large rim glasses, and drink butternut squash brown sugar peach passion vanilla porter with a slice of grapefruit as the garnish? There is a great music scene there. Great food trucks, quite a few breweries. Large artisan population. Its a young, "sophisticated" crowd.

No skinny jeans, no beard except when I don't shave for a few days, refuse to wear glasses, hate fruit in beer unless it is Belgian lambic, listen to most genres of music, not scared to eat from a food truck. So maybe. Probably too old to be taken seriously by the hipster crowd. LOl

 

[JKraver]

Lambics are good, quite sweet do you ever mix beers? Lambic Frambosie with a Youngs Double Chocolate Porter/Stout, Lefthand milkstout nitro, or st bernardus quad. I am far more of a beer than liquor guy.

Right now in the heat of the summer lemon shandys are a godsend. Its like lemonade, but still beer. Its a touch girly, but I cant be shamed and they are delicious in the heat.

 

[2thm8kr]

I have had thousands of beers from around the world and Stateside. I generally don't mix beers that is a recipe for a bad headache.
My passion is Belgian beer, the only breweries I haven't sampled are quite obscure and not distributed outside of their locality. I will sample them when I go on tour.

Unblended Lambic or Gueuze no fruit added for second fermentation.

Try Belgian Saisons. They are meant for summer.

I drink them too, I am more of a German beer guy, Belgian is my #2 over there though. I have German in my heritage, so I gravitate to them a little more. I may enjoy Belgian more in a blind taste test though never tried. I do love me some trappist ales.

 

[2thm8kr]

Try Westmalle Dubbel.



Get it in 750ml format. It is better than the smaller bottles.
