    I told the movers to leave my PC and the booze.

    Last night had a $2 margarita with the best $2 tacos I've ever had at a place in my hotel in Vegas. I'm thinking my boss and I will have a few more meals there this week. They had some other $2 drink specials and they also have a plate of nachos that a family of 6 could eat for dinner.

    And I'm on a hunt for a place to get good beer on the strip in Vegas, or maybe in the downtown area if we scope that out. Any ideas?

    Vegas really isn't a beer town

    It's not on the strip, but sort of nearby - find Gordon Biersch. They're a chain microbrewery on the West Coast similar to Karl Strauss, they make some really tasty beers. Just ask @metesn. He knows.

    Thanks for the info!

    Looks like the #1 brewery in Nevada is right next to my hotel.

    Ellis Island Casino and Brewery (and their beers are only $2!)

    @UPSLynx: we need to find a dive bar and go get hammered. I know its a bit of a drive to get up to you from LAX, but damnit, need go drink.

    The bourbon barrel aged Old Rasputin is awesome if you can find it.

    Drank 4 different versions of the Grand Rapids Beer City Pale Ale at some local breweries last night. 6 more left to try. They all did something different in the secondary fermentation, so there are slight variations, although the one at Schmohz was awful - I think they aren't great at sanitizing...

    Central Waters Belgian Blonde. This is a great thing to enjoy in 100+ degree weather.

    I would strongly suggest you begin calling around to your better bottle shops to ensure you get your hands on some of this nectar.

    So yeah, this @UPSlynx dick was getting all up in my country and what not, acting like he can into booze, so I had to fly south with some goodies including:

    image

    Dat Green Spot.
    Dat Blackwoods.

    Both were gorgeous sipped straight up, but while Green Spot is obscenely easy drinking that 60% Blackwoods burns so good.
    Oh, and if Bobby tells you to try boozin' while you breathe with blackwoods....it's a trap.

    omg that Whiskey. That gin kicked our asses that night.

    I haven't tried the Corenwyn yet. Gonna bust that out tonight. @Basil, do you have the pic of us being smug, or is that on my camera? I don't remember o.O

    Also, @primesuspect, Basil deserves the I exist badge!

    Apparently neither @UPSlynx or I could into whiskey and camera simultaneously, cos the focus is fecked but you still sense the smugness.

    I take it you managed to sneak your bottles in 'murica, how was dat corenwyn anyway? Get any other views on the Blackwoods/greenspot?

  • UPSLynxUPSLynx :KAPPA: Redwood City, CA Icrontian
    Dat smug!

    So I made it back with all the booze and didn't have to pay a dime in duty. Ownage. The corenwyn 10 was the correct choice - it actually tastes more like a whiskey than a genever. Quite smokey, INCREDIBLY smooth. It's ultimate. I put it side by side with the regular corenwyn and there wasn't a contest. It's an incredible drink.

    I believe in the case of Tea vs. Coffee, Tea wins here.
