Posted March 13 This time of year everything is Irish. Eirinn go Brach! Maybe a little fun. Tell each other of our favorite Irish Whiskey or beer. For me Bushmills 10 year old. Honestly for the price. Excellent Red Breast. Little pricy hard to find Jamison Black Barrel. Repeat... Black Barrel. Reasonably priced. Great for occasional sippers. Beer: NOT GUINNESS!!! Uggg Smithwicks Blond Ale. Crisp, clean finish And...not even Irish, they actually laugh, Kilian's Red. What can I say. I like it. Anybody? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 13 Jameson's Cask Conditioned is a really smooth Irish Whiskey. Then there's always the Dew, Tullamore Dew. I find the ladies prefer the Dew................. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As someone who celebrates being Irish every day of the year, I think you have an excellent list, especially the Bushmills. Only beer I would add is Harp Irish Lager. Cheers. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 13 I do like Harp on tap. For some reason, to me, Harp in a bottle is.... cloudy,?? Not a clean finish. Hard to describe. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14 i tried and liked Redbreast at Ned Kelly's in Littleton this past year. I had a bottle of 2 Gingers, it was ok. i had a very small bottle of QuietMan, it was good. ... ...green spot, however, is not good, imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14 Redbreast 12 is my favorite. It's usually available at Total Wine for about $60. It's also available at Bevy's, but it's marked up significantly there. Bevy's also carries the 15-year-old, as well as the barrel strength, from time to time. You'll need to take a distribution to pay for those. LOL 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15 (edited) White chocolate Irish cream, that I picked up at applejack’s last fall. I also have a bottle of salted caramel Irish cream brand is called Michael’s. It’s OK I’m not much of a drinker every once in a great while the mood will hit me though. I don’t even know what I would mix it with coffee? you know I’m wishing Jez was still on here! I know her account is still up! Edited March 15 by Kali Sensual Reiki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 16 I just saw this post. The White Chocolate is incredible poured over Ice Cream and is an incredible surprise and crowd favorire when poured over B 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 16 I send by mistake. Poured over bread pudding it adds a great surprise topping. Heat it, add a tablespoon of butter and pour it over your French Toast in the morning. Hard to go back to simple syrup after that though. Roasted bananas with The Michaels is incredible serve hot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 16 I’ve enjoyed 2 Gingers and Sexton (blue bottle) lately. Tulamore Dew & Redbreast are also favorites. For Welsh whiskey, look for Rhiannon. I’ve also been quaffing some Balcones Single Malt whisky from Waco, TX. It’s young (2 years) and cask strength (53%). For those Outlander fans who might be tempted by Sam Heughan’s The Sassanach, save your money unless you collect fancy bottles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 23 You know baby girl, years of experience has taught me that a properly administered spanking will go a long ways in getting a lady refocused and back under control. I am glad you enjoyed you drink!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 I'm biased to Bushmills. As I've hung out at their distillery and town. Way up on the most northern point of Ireland. Distillery has been making their poison since 1608! Such an amazing experience!! I'm loyal and into the Repulic. So when In Dublin toured Guiness and Jameson. We bailed from Guiness the first time. As the line and wait was over an hour long. It was like being at Disney World. Later went back when there wasn't the madness of tourists. Also a line at the Jameson distillery. Not as ridiculous. Jameson is good! I am a huge fan of Redbreast!! I also do like Sexton!! I usually get the latter two. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 I have not tried Sexton. That is now on my list. We had the same experience with the Guinness tour. The line was ridiculously long. We left, unfortunately never got back. Just the opposite with Jameson. Our guide knew a member of the management staff. He arranged an early morning tour with just twelve of us. At that time Jameson Black Barrell was not sold in the USA. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 I skipped the Guinness tour, opting for Dunhill pipes, the diaspora museum, and The Jenny, one of the ‘coffin’ ships, instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I appreciate Guinness on tap. Especially in the mother land! Smithwicks is a popular beer in pubs there. It's nothing unique to me. Also, I enjoyed Murphy's Irish Stout while in the south of Ireland. Specifically in Cork. It's not an easy beer for me to find here in the states. I've been to Scotland twice now. I always say I'm going to Islay. It's definitely a trip that needs to be planned. Maybe next time... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted Monday at 6:56 PM I love the USA but, I could easily live in Scotland!!! Easily, gladly! I'm fortunate to have been there numerous times on business and pleasure. I have Incredible memories of a wonderful, spontaneous hookup on the Caldonia Express. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
