Picture of the Day: Virtual Wetting-Down

I’ll be getting at the remnants of these later, join me in spirit with your spirits…

Aberlour is my go-to scotch. I gave up Grey Goose years ago in favor of Belvedere; if the Poles are standing by us in the war, it’s the least I can do for them.

    Outstanding! And in my best Polish, “Zime piwo!” (cold beer) that’s all I know.

  2. Blackfive says:

    Congrats, sir! I’ll raise a Ardbeg to you later tonight.

  3. Andy says:

    I’m drinking some of my wife’s fru-fru wine right now in honor. Congratulations!

    Of course, Grey Goose is now owned by Bacardi, a U.S. company, based in Miami, Florida.

    You ever try Monopolowa vodka? 100% potato, from Austria, and an absolute steal at around $12 the quart. It;s the preferred variety for my Euro and Russian friends here in the States [Texas(Houston)].

  6. Andy says:

    A good potato vodka will beat any grain vodka hands down. I prefer Polish brands personally.

    Scotch whiskey from the UK and Vodka from Poland?

    Isn’t good American booze good enough for you??

    Remember who pays that promotion pay!!

    JimPv: I also had a growler of fine Old Dominion Brewery’s Hop Pocket Ale, made right here in Northern VA!

    Army Lawyer: Huzzah! to you! What a great old phrase, very Flashman-ian.

    I served in Iraq with some Polish GROM commandos and Belvedere is definitely my brand now!

    Congrats!
