What's Everyone Drinking?

This forum is for talking about non-music-related stuff that the DBT fanbase might be interested in. This is not the place for inside jokes and BS. Take that crap to some other board.

I had basically forgotten about Sazeracs until I overheard BTB order one (ahem) at Homecoming this year. Damn good cocktail.

I probably should have posted this before the NOLA shows. One of my favorite things to do in NOLA is the cocktail tour. I've done it probably four or five times but each time with Joe Gendusa who is mentioned in this article. Mr Joe takes participants to historic bars, in their back rooms where most folks can't visit, and let's then try signature cocktails. I got the history of the sazaerac on this tour.

Next time you're in NOLA go on the cocktail tour but request Joe Gendusa as your tour guide.

old news, that happened two days ago :lol: :lol: :lol:

That adds Wicked Weed to their "craft collection," which also has 10 Barrel, Elysian, Goose Island, and Golden Road

True, but they were a regional craft brewer that AB bought, so they make the list. I haven't had it in years but I recall not hating the Matilda

Bourbon County isn't. Their farmhouse beers (Lolita) are still good as well.

They've never made a good IPA though.

That sucks, but at the same time, I love having Lagunitas available, fresh, all the time.

Was never a big fan overall. To me, their beer is solid but not great. In these parts there are a plethora of better choices. Unfortunately they have a huge presence at Bay Area music venues and ball parks

it's funny... the progression of really good beer over the last couple of decades is something like this:

Sam Adams/Sierra Nevada > Harpoon/Smuttynose/Rogue > Dogfish/Lagunitas > Trillium/Tree House/Grimm/etc

i had west coast beers in each of the categories aside from the last one... if there's a West Coast brewery that's as good as trill/TH/grimm, clue me in! or better yet, send some. i've heard good things about monkish but you can't get that shit here. hell, i've never even had Bissell yet.

oh, i'll add Hill Farmstead to the list too. they are amazingly good.

we don't get those beers here, so other than one Treehouse from a friend I have had none. I haven't been to RI in 7 years so last time I was there I didn't encounter any of those, alas........

It's not even close to the best beer in my backyard. But for the price point, it's quite nice.
