“Ripple was a fortified, lightly-carbonated sweet wine cooler produced by the the Californian E&J Gallo Winery between 1960 and 1984”

A stroll down memory lane....
Ripple, Hogshead, Night Train, Thunderbird, MD 20/20, Boone’s Farm, Cisco and Wild Irish Rose.
The kids were crazy about the Boones Farm and the bruthas choked down the rest.

I was purely a beer type myself, then I was introduced to Scotch.

I'll never forget my newly wed bride when I brought home a bottle of Cutty Sark.   She grabbed it from me and said, "Oh goody Scotch!"   I didn't know what to think right then.   But we are in our 48th year together.
