  1. The port barrel finish makes MWND a little too sugary and figgy IMO. When I drink rye I want the spicy cinnamon taste of the rye to come screaming out at the forefront and I think the Sagamore does that. Also taste herbal notes like mint and dill in the finish that I enjoy. Honestly, I like Bourye and Double Rye better then MWND. I know I'm probably in the minority.
  2. Sagamore rye barrel select is great! Had midwinters night dram act 5 before this and I like sagamore way better.
  3. Are all nazi and confederacy flags flown at half mast now?
  4. Not really a political article but an article showing the lengths Hannity went to get his kid on the Wake Forest tennis team. https://www.salon.com/2021/02/17/sean-hannitys-private-plane-and-the-wake-forest-tennis-team-a-morality-fable/
  5. My parents are medical professionals and they've received both shots. First one, no side effects. Second one, they had chills the rest of the day and were lethargic. Cleared up in a couple of days. Their whole staff has also received both shots and all of them reported symptoms after the second shot. Some of them even had to call in sick the next couple days to recover but all eventually did recover. I, on the other hand, am a single 30 year old with no pre-existing conditions and work from home. I believe that puts me in phase 76w. Looking forward to getting the vaccine in Q3 of 2023!
  6. Tired Hands out of Philly just started shipping to VA. They had free shipping so I bought some goodies.
  7. Love the scene in this film when the main character and his gf get forced in the car with the two villains. Scene at first is very intense and you have no idea what's gonna happen but it devolves into them being friendly and the three men just bitching about women.
  8. Resident Culture tonight. Great brewery out of Charlotte. Helped get over WF playing god awful against NC St tonight.
  9. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKckF3JhFPY/ This seems like a stupid move for Garcia given his opponent's age and heavier weight class. Seems like he gains nothing winning this fight and loses a lot if he loses.
  10. Anyone remember La David Johnson aka the marine who died in combat in Niger and when Trump called his family for sympathy he couldn't even remember the soldier's name? Then when Congressman Frederica Wilson revealed the latter detail to the press, conservatives were more upset with Wilson revealing it then Trump's own actions even after Johnson's family confirmed Wilson's story. This happened very early in his presidency and if Obama did that we would never hear the end of it for good reason. I remember swam, clearlakehorn and a bunch of other shitty shaggybevo posters being far more upset over Frederica Wilson's actions then Trump's. Heck Trump got his chief of staff John F. Kelly to straight up lie about Frederica Wilson's story, it still didn't matter to conservatives. That shocked me and made me realize how much of a cult they really are.
  11. Commonwealth Brewing First Tracks. Really good stuff
  12. He clearly was a piece of shit. That being said River Deep Mountain High is a top 5 song for me.
  13. Tried a 2014 Black Ops and 2015 Madame Rose tonight. Black Ops was gross. No carbonation and was very syrupy. Tasted like molasses and wood. Madame Rose was divine. I've had Madame Rose fresh and this was far less sour more sweet. Still had good carbonation. Tasted like sour cherry pie.
  14. Montezuma Castle is a cool little stop on that drive between Phoenix and Sedona.
  15. Yeah I noticed the toasted reviews online have been more mixed than the B520. I've liked all the EC barrel picks I've tried so I figured might as well pull the trigger.
  16. Has anybody had Rare Breed Barrel Proof or Rare Breed Rye Barrel Proof? I saw them at the same store I bought the Elijah Craig's and thought about pulling the trigger. Reviews online have been mixed.
  17. If you're in San Antonio a place called NOLA Brunch and Beignets already sells these. Not necessarily ones filled with chocolate, but they sell lemon filled ones and a monthly seasonal flavor as well as just normal beignets. This month is gingerbread. I've had other flavored ones in the past like key lime and mangonada and they're great.
  18. Got a couple of goodies today. Ignore the horrible lighting.
  19. Went to Texas Jack's (#3 in OP's link) today for lunch. Thought the food was solid. Definitely a step or two below places like Valentinas, 2m, Franklin etc. Brisket wasn't dry and well seasoned. Fat could've been rendered a little more though. Ribs were cooked and seasoned well. Just seasoned with salt and pepper so they were nothing special. Place looks like it has a good bourbon selection and is open for dinner. Would go to get a bbq fix and watch a game once everything opens up again.
  20. Balcones Rye taste more like a scotch then a rye IMO. Lots of chocolate which is weird for a rye. Still enjoyed it.
  21. Image is from a Las Vegas restaurant's instagram post. San Antonio does have places though that serve similar tacos which are called birria tacos. https://www.expressnews.com/food/restaurants/article/5-great-Mexican-restaurants-for-birria-tacos-in-15540343.php#photo-19905677 Only been to El Remedio from the list. Damn good tacos. They have a weird ordering system though right now due to COVID. You have to order them on their website, days ahead of time and they sell out fast.
  22. Drinking Cockspur 12 tonight. Tastes like pecan pie with a little bit of tobacco. So good. Feel like most bourbon lovers would like this one.
