What Do You Guys Drink? Victory Beer, Bourbon, Gin and More!

I've been drinking less that usual these days. I guess just to be healthier plus I think I'm kind of like some over eaters that sit and eat a bag of chips without even knowing they're doing it. I found myself just drinking when I really didn't want to be drinking. So I've slowed down a bit.

But I still do imbibe. And lately I've been sipping on some gin and tonics. Yummm-meeee! Specifically Tanguery and tonic. I got drinking them because that's what my girlfriend drinks and they're refreshing! Sip...ahhhhhh! But I'm not sure I'll be drinking them into the Fall and Winter because they seem more like a Summer drink.

Here's a list of the other things that I drink:

Victory Beer - I'm so happy that I live ten minutes away from this brewery. I like to drink the beer there and in growlers that I have filled up. Here are a few of my favorites: Braumeister (available on tap only), Hop Devil, Prima Pils, Storm King Stout. And many more.

Red Wine - I like most varieties but tend to stay away from anything too sweet. If I had to pick just one drink to have this would be it.And on the subject of wine I've been drinking out of smaller wine glasses because those glasses with the huge bowl just get you too fiiiiiired up! (And I've been calling the bowl of the wine glass the "bulb" for years I still think that somewhere they're referred to as bulbs).

White wine  - love sipping on white but mostly drink when I'm eating a dinner that calls for a white. Favorite characteristics I like are buttery and oaky. May I recommend the Kendall Jackson Chardonnay? And I can't stand cheap booze* but I've got to tell you that Barefoot Brand wine is super inexpensive and tastes good.

Whiskey - I like bourbon and scotch. Favorite brands are Dewers and Crown Royal. Here's how to make me the perfect drink.

Margarita - I love these but to tel you the truth I've only had about six of them all year. I'll have to get on that.

And that's pretty much it. Unless I'm at a party and someone ask me to try something. But I'm open to suggestions.

*At least a few times a year I'll take one sip of a cheap wine and just walk over to the sink and pour it down the drain. I don't know how some of the really cheap wines even get sold.

I Met Some Hot Chester County Chicks The Other Night. Teca.



See the picture above? I just stole it from the blog Enough Hats For Everyone.

You see, I met Kristen and some other local Twitterers at a Ladies Night on Wednesday at Teca in West Chester and Kristen did a great job of summing it up. To read the story, click here.

And note the part where she says I'm "Good Looking and smells nice too". That's my favorite part. I think I'm gonna go back and read that part again.

Wine Making Turns Into Hysterical Fall. Breath Knocked Out.

Are all you other gay blades watching Dancing with the Stars like me right now? Well here's a short clip to watch at the commercial break. It's a news anchor smashing grapes then something goes horribly wrong. She falls off the platform and gets the air knocked out of her.

Her groans are hilaaaaaaarious.

I Will Be At Duffers in Glen Mills Tonight If Anyone Wants To Meet Me.


You read that right. I will be going to Duffer's Tavern in Glen Mills, PA* tonight with my friend Ron.

The band tonight is Hake and Jarema. Would you like to come out and meet me - Dr Zibbs? It might be a little short notice for the people that would have to get a flight, but for those closer, I'll be getting there about 7.

If you think you'll be going, let me know in the comments section. I will have my Blackberry so I'll make sure to check the comments. To get my attention, stand at one of the corners of the large bar and stretch. A few times. I will keep my eye out and then I will approach. You will then be free to buy me drinks and we'll have many, many laughs.

Just imagine. What you've been waiting for just might happen. Now get in the shower and clean yourselves up.

* That's a picture of Duffers above. It should be more crowded then what you see in the picture.
