My exposure to other whiskeys has been some what limited. JD was the first whiskey that I could stomach, after a few glasses I started to really like the stuff. Now I'm salivating thinking about it :).

Is it odd that I don't like JW Red Label?

JW Red is rough, almost deliberately so. It's best with a mixer.

I'm probably going to start this weekend off with a couple of Blue Moons. (It was raining, so I went to the closest liquor store and that's the best stuff they carry that's both drinkable and fiancee-friendly).

Looks cool, where are these from?

Makes me urge for a hobgoblin, a black sheep, an old speckled hen or a hen's tooth... no wait one of each!:smug:

I dunno about the Moylan's but Rogue is a renowned craft brewery out of Newport OR...You can usually find their stuff warm in large bottles even in the regular liquor store. They are very pricey but they make a damn fine beer.

Moylan's is a brewery in Northern Cali that specializes in Scottish and Irish type brews + an incredible amount of hops. They actually have a brew called "Hopsickal" which is like hop wine. I actually really love the bitter taste of hops so it is good for me. I think Moylans will probably get pretty big in the next couple of years.

Rogue is (IMO) the best brewery in the United States right now. I travel a lot and taste local stuff from all over but Rogue is still #1. You can get their "Deadguy Ale" in most stores on the West Coast and their other brews at specialty shops around the country.

My usual, Appleton Estate (Jamaican) rum and club soda on the rocks. Delicious!

Occasionally, I like a little shot of Irish whiskey, neat. A fave brand is Red Breast. It's like drinking silk. I'm a big fan of good cognac and armagnac (which aren't generally in my budget), and this whiskey is as smooth and full flavoured as either of those, and way more affordable. I appreciate a good single malt Scotch (Oban, Lagavulin, etc.) but something in Scotch gives me a wicked headache after only a few sips. Anyone have any ideas what ingredient that might be? I find it interesting that I have no such reaction to Irish, or any other kind of whiskey. Only Scotch. Maybe it's something to do with the way it's prepared?

A previous post (or two) mentioned Scotch ales. Any of you guys tried Innis & Gunn? It's a Scottish amber ale brewed in whiskey casks and it's really tasty.
