Prohibition was repealed. What are you enbibing in to celebrate?

I went with Cabernet Savignon.

Darn, all I have is a $2.50 bottle of wine I picked up at CVS last week. It is not good!

 I tried Chinese Bai Jiu for the first time last night.

 

It's distilled (not fermented) from grapes.   So, it's like a really, really strong wine (about 90 proof)

It was very sweet, and not too bad.    Drinking too much of it would probably give me heartburn.

Drinking a slightly too cold glass of red wine currently and have a batch of beer (Blue Moon'ish clone) slowly fermenting in the garage.

Quit drinking years (almost decades) ago, but I'm thinking about scoring some reefer to celebrate the new prohibition, and imminent repeal thereof.

I tried a new beer out of my Leinenkugels winter sampler pack.  Winter sleigh ride.  I had about four sips and poured it down the drain.  It was a dark beer and I can't force myself to drink one.  Think I'd rather do another Ironman than drink a dark beer/ale.  Just sayin..

I dislike most of Leinenkugels beer, but will have to try and find Winter Sleigh Ride.  Sounds like a good beer.

Good choice!

I'm going to see if I can track down a bottle of Stone's "Enjoy By 12.13.13" IPA, not sure if there is any left in my town.

For most people, there is a story in how they came to the sport as beginners. Some of the most inspiring of those beginner tales begin with health scares.
