Michael Weiss Posted August 27, 2006 Report Posted August 27, 2006 It was followed by a reasonable dose (no driving today!) of Marc de Beaujolais Terres Dorées from the estate of the great Beaujolais grower Jean-Paul Brun! Our Beaujolais of choice. He also makes a very nice and reasonably Chardonnay. Tonight with duck confit it's a Pomerol - Chateau Bourgneuf 2001. Quote

mikeweil Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 Some excellent Earl Grey tea I bought in Antwerpen earlier this year. Quote
Man with the Golden Arm Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) Friend of mine and I shared a bottle of this last Sunday. Very nice, smooth and not so chewy with hints of playful discordant fruitfulness especially with aural accompanyment for placebo effect. Goot und schtronk too boot!

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 And it's Glengettie for me, again. My wife says I'm addicted to tea even more than music. But she refuses to get Ceylon from the Supermarket. MG Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted August 29, 2006 Author Report Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) After all the hype over this new product I was excited to finally get my hands on it - and in its brand new 40oz form - thanks to FultonCounty40z! To make a long story short, its a decent malt taste at a strong % - easily the smoothest of the high gravity brews. Reminds me of Magnum - if this was a regular malt that wouldn't be a compliment, but being over 8% it definitely is. Easy to drink and gives a decent buzz. This replaced Hurricane Ice, which was basically only test marketed in OR & WA states, but unlike that brand (which was 7.5%) this one is spreading like AIDS. Swill is swill but not too bad. I would definitely drink this on the reg if I could get it by me easily. Overall 9 outta 10 stars for being probably the smoothest HG on teh market. If people keep choosing St. Ides or Steel Reserve 211 over this, it's only cuz their taste buds rotted away from life long alcohol abuse. Edited August 29, 2006 by alocispepraluger102 Quote
