Port finish on the Angel’s Envy really makes this bottle. I love this bourbon. The price has dropped considerably from a few years ago. One of the best in its range. Plus the bottle itself is awesome—love the angel wings on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShocksMyBrain 9,367 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 NOLA Revivalists. Pretty tasty. Would drink again. Named after the band. Got this in the fridge: @Tiger Refuge what’s the story with Envie being brewed in Lakeland, FL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got this in the fridge: @Tiger Refuge what’s the story with Envie being brewed in Lakeland, FL? Whaaaat? I’m not sure about that. I know when they started canning, the quality fell off a bit. Gimme a afew to dig, I’ll see if I can gather some info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had a picture, but my Envie tallboy was from Lakeland. I thought the flavor was fine, but the mouthfeel wasn’t like what I’d had in bottles.

ShocksMyBrain 9,367 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 It actually reminded me a lot of Devil’s Harvest in terms of flavor combined with mouthfeel. Perhaps SoPro, Parish, and Abita have developed a new style. Southeastern Not Quite North East Delta IPA. Or commonly known as SENQNEDIPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,367 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 This is actually pretty bomb. Much better performance than our b-ball team tonight. Not too sour, great amount of oak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Refuge 6,670 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 In Baton Rouge for the first time. Went to The Chimes. Not that anyone asked, but I’d recommend. Hop Bullet is pretty dang tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Refuge 6,670 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 NOLA Hoppyright Infringement IIPA for me and a mule for my wife. This is a very good beer. I like a little more malt backbone in my doubles, but still...not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 11,153 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Got my hands on the Voodoo Ranger Juicy Haze. Tasty and crushable. Wish more NEIPA’s floated down here. Had to learn to solder pipe today. Jacked up a delta faucet trying to replace the seats. Was original, dome had cemented itself into place and I turned too hard on this one, the third out of four that needed fixing. Turned the water to the house back on and it was leaking into the wall. Plumber came out and said he could fix it without detroying tile and was going to get parts. He never made it back. Went to Lowe’s, bought some ball valves and by the grace of God soldered them into the lines going up to the shower. Now I’m minus one shower until I get it fixed, but at least we have running water and I have learned a new skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washing machine shut off valve failure. It has held so far, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where I ****** it up. See how those copper lines are twisted? That’s the hot and cold water line for the fixture. They aren’t supposed to look like that. (Yes the blood visible is mine.) The ball valves in place after I got off my ass and decided to at least get the rest of the house working. I now know the importance of wearing gloves while doing plumbing work. Dropped a bit of solder on my left pinky while sweating the cold water line. It smarts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
