Thanks for the Peregrine reminders. Signed up for the lottery just in time. And I forced all my coworkers to sign up too. Good luck everyone!

You animal.

I can’t eat regular American butter anymore since I switched to Kerrygold Irish butter.

I used to eat it as kid at my grandmom’s as she would get it but at my house we just used regular butter. Plus I was younger & didn’t necessarily even notice the difference. But not now lol.

Switching to only Kerrygold and getting a butter crock to keep it at room temp is an absolute game changer in the butter world. I buy the 4 packs from Costco, it's totally worth it.

Not necessarily in the same context, but Costco sells these large jugs of clarified butter. Great for cooking.

I did not and I have to admit that I’m ok with it. I recently bought 3 $100+ LE bottles at retail and this pricing is getting absurd. One of them I don’t even particularly like, but it’s ~$300 secondary in NJ so I’m going to give it away to people who have never tried one. The previous years I had were totally fine. Just not worth the pricing.

I did a 6 pour blind today for a few friends and I’m so happy with the results. The two almost universal winners were sub-$50 store picks (Blue Note and New Riff). They beat Stagg 24C, ETL, a Willett purple top some poor person gave me as a gift, and one out of the four liked Weller CYPB the best. Yes, I picked those because of their tater status. But even that one guy thought it was close between that and the cheap bottles.

Tagging @Starat327 because he’ll enjoy this. Don’t shop by price or hype. There’s zero need to spend crazy money.

Glad that New Riff still held up. Its been one of my favorites since I first had it but its slowly been less and less available near me.

I hear the last part. I’ve just been impressed with the ones from this company that it’s worth it to buy out of consistency. That and the economics of time…

Me thinks that blind tasting was designed to prove a point. Blue note great.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

yay!!!! lol

If you ended up getting one, I'm more than happy to have an extra cellared, but I did stick a sealed 8 away for you. I'll get it to you one day.

Oh agreed. I entered too. They were liberal with review samples and I haven't even seen a middling one.

Hell yes it was and it worked like a charm.

I want you to imagine the internal dialogue when this poor guy handed me a bottle of Willet he paid God knows what for I don't think is worth $50. It turns out it's easy to sell old MGP and hard to distill your own. I hope I kept it together.

Willet is the single most polarizing distillery around. I’ve never seen a middle ground reported. You either love it or hate it.

Other Half Double Potato Spaghetti Town might be the worst beer I've ever had. It was canned 11 days ago, so it's not that. There's something wrong with people's taste buds. You know that mouth watering thing you get before you puke? That's what it did to me.

There are 3 more left from the Super Bowl and I'm going to end up drain pouring this crap.
