Best drink while listening to your rig?

Hi Jond...I will definitely give that a try, if it is still available.

And as for your recommendation, Calbrs, I just put that on the shopping list. How would a dash of dark rum go with that?

Thanks to you both!

Tang for me

Most any good red wine with bread or cheese.

Lately, I've been drinking Session by Full Sail Brewery. It's a pre-prohibition style lager. It's good enough to satisfy the beer snob in me, but not so big that it distracts from anything else you're doing. When I want a more serious beer, I turn to anything by Dogfish, especially the 90 minute IPA.

I don't drink a lot of wine lately, but when I do, I'm a big fan of French and Italian reds. For the harder stuff, I have a pretty respectable bourbon and scotch collection, the highlight of which is a 1971 Macallan bottled by Signatory. Mine is bottle #138 of 190. I've become a huge fan of Hangar One vodka too. Their flavored vodka is the only flavored stuff I've ever enjoyed, and it's exquisite. I like to mix half a shot of the Citron with half a shot of the Kaffir Lime and drink it neat. Their Mandarin Blossom vodka approaches perfection.

Big fan of The Macallan! Nice with some cool jazz. Those beers are harder to find out here on the islands, but there are some decent island brews...find I, too, am drinking less wine lately and more beer (wine and HI just don't seem to go together very well, but still need a good bottle with that special meal). Will definitely pick up some Hangar One.
