Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) I tended to hang out at the Pioneer Bar in Nederland. A colorful and wonderful place it was. That was where I learned to detect the early warning signs of a bar-fight, so that I could begin to deftly weave my cowardly and yet prudent way towards the exit (never too far away), and how to dodge a flying beer pitcher. On the other hand, you might end up sitting with Joe Walsh and friends at the bar. Edited August 1, 2018 by BadBoy to make it read better ; ) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you know, alcohol and a$$holes makes a great combination in any bar! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To help bring this back on track, drink whatever your favorite wine or beverage is with pizza. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, you are right, we did hijack it a bit, but most of the sidetracks had something to do with pizza! Besides, the OP track had pretty much run it's course: Once you get a picture of MadDog 20/20 as a wine recommendation with pizza, really, what more is there to say?

You could always discuss which is the best wine opener purchase to uncork your bottle. I’m always breaking off & leaving half the cork.🍷 box wine you can just punch a hole through with a screw driver. wine bottles with twist caps you just need to remember—-> right tighty lefty lossey.... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have used this one for decades: has always got the cork out and doubles as a bottle opener. https://www.amazon.com/Monopol-Westmark-Germany-Two-Prong-Puller/dp/B0002WZR4K/ref=pd_sim_79_4?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0002WZR4K&pd_rd_r=MRRJE0S3KDRRB14JZZVJ&pd_rd_w=jZ9hQ&pd_rd_wg=Kr2K9&psc=1&refRID=MRRJE0S3KDRRB14JZZVJ Big fan of boxed wine. Some nice ones out there that I pick up for cooking, keeps well, makes for easy swig with whatever you cooked with it. And yes, can just punch a hole in it if the tap malfunctions. And can remove the bag from the box to cut down on space the thing takes up. Another substitute for cooking wine are the airline sized bottles at the liquor store. More $$/oz, but each bottle is about one cup and makes easy to keep around small amounts, if just needing splashes of wine here and there (and of course can slam down what's left in the bottle). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
