Lots. Spent the day in the shop and probably was a bit careless reg. using the dust mask, feels like I swallowed enough sawdust to warrant a stop at the beer shop on the way home. Most likely some Rogue will make it home with me.

Piper Sonoma Sparkling Wine.

X2.

It's Friday beeotch! OK, it was a long grueling week....just glad to have a respite.
 
I hear you on the Friday at the end of a long week--we've been conducting initial round hiring interviews for a new position in our department, so all of my prep time has been displaced into what used to be non-work hours. I really enjoyed the glass of Blanton's with just a drop or three of water that I just finished.
 
I am super excited, just bought a case of Old Jubilation Ale by Avery Brewing Company. This stuff only comes out once a year and usually goes pretty fast. It tastes wonderful, has 8.3%ABV, and is cellarable for up to 3 years. I highly recommend.
 
Hermannator, by Vancouver Island Brewery, out once a year for a few weeks:

Brewed in limited batches each year, Hermannator Ice Bock was first introduced by Hermann, one of our original Brewmasters, during the holiday as a unique gift to his closest friends and customers. Crafted at 9.5% abv, using a signature blend of chocolate and caramel malts, this German Eisbock is slowly cold aged in our cellar for over 3 months.

And, Ugly Sweater Milk Stout, made by Parallel 49, awesome but smooth dark beer.
 
Just finished a Hebrew 16th anniv. It was soooo good, I want another but at 16% maybe I shouldn't
 
Had some Orangina last night, a nice treat which brings back fond memories of traveling in France during my younger and wilder years :) Put some bubbly in the fridge for tonight, Charles de Fere, Cuvee Jean-Louis Blanc de Blanc. Very affordable, the store was out of Gruet and told me I should try this instead. We'll see...

Conn Valley Vineyards 2004 Napa Reserve cab: Still young and a little rough around the edges. The flavor wasn't really what I expect out of a California cab but I enjoyed it.
 
The liqueur store closed early for the holiday. So I walked to the nations worst strip club and asked if they had any wine. Beringer White Merlot is what I chose. Hope it's worth the 7.75.

Did they win a national award is or is this just a personal designation?

$7.75...plus cover...plus 2 drink minimum.
 
lol I think I heard that they were voted that some were. No cover, they have a package store next to the "stage area". If you drive up at the right time you can see what stripper is performing.

Btw it's not the worst wine I have drank either.
 
Newcastle Brown Ale, quite a bit of it. Thank god for late nights in the kitchen.
 
Had some fresh baked country bread with truffled liver pate - that called for a 2006 Robert Weil Riesling Auslese. Not the greatest year but drinks very nicely right now.
