it IS a tough job, i had to suffer thru a bunch of manhattans that all tasted different, i had to try not to cry when i had him dump out the ones that were just plain horrible, and the worst part, was i had to walk all the way around the bar to get the comp sheet to sign off on all of them.
*sigh* the trials and tribulations of being a bartender. :)

I don’t know if I looked cool that night I had three Long Island Teas, but I felt pretty cool.

I was thinking the same thing as you. I was very disappointed to find one of my favorites on the list.

There’s just something incredibly relaxing about a Manhattan.

I do have to say that a cherry garnish takes away from it overall.

What’s your favorite Manhattan recipe? I’m always looking for a new one.

{I wonder where swapping recipes ranks on the manlihood scale?}

nonsense

Order whatever you want, who cares what anyone thinks.

I’ve spent time on Texan hunting web sites and know of everyone’s love for Shinerbock. I had one the other day. What is the big deal?

One of a few things good about being in my seventh decade on this earth is that I don’t give a s*&^ what people think about what I drink. I just want there to be enough of it, preferably at someone else’s expense.

It was to cover the taste of bath tub gin during prohibition.

I bought a rack of Mickeys big mouths a few weeks ago. After hockey they go down so fast and good!

its bourbon, its ok. :)
try it with knob creek, single drop of cherry juice, lemon twist (not wedge) in place of cherry.
if you’re into expensive, bookers is awesome.

I like the Bombay Sapphire gin, so smooth.

“I’d like a bottle of tequilla and a glass. On second thought, I really don’t need the glass...”

Yes, I once said that at a bar.

Know why Knob Creek is named so?

Bookers is good, but it’s just raw Jim Beam.

Beer: Sam Adams or an occasional Guinness.

Other: Jack Daniels (with or without ice), and the occasional Jack and coke.

Tried “Irish Mist” once and thought I was going to die.

They were right about the “facial scruff” on the whiskey drinker definition, though, at least as far as I’m concerned.
