I'm on a small glass of Heaven Hill bourbon. Only 40%. Ian, I managed to get a bottle of Marker's Mark from 1994 at auction for £50. Basically what Chris had on his shelf, although his had been opened for 30 years. But should be pretty damn good.

Beer of the night (so far) is the Boundary Export Stout, the 7% ABV being an added bonus. One of the best beers I have had from Northern Ireland, not that I've had that many (just checked it's 13 beers from 7 breweries).

Seriously, good luck Ed


Yeah, followed the link, saw the story, jumped.

Let's hope the post-douchery cleanup takes their attention away from such matters, and ties up their best lawyers.

Oh yes, thanks for the reminder. At the last Chriso tasting, GBBF pre shindig the best thing I had was the old Maker's Mark that Chris had sitting on his whisky shelf.

If you need a hand drinking your bottle Ed I'd be happy to come up and try it for you? Can bring a few special things in return.

Decent enough Imperial Stout, but a little too much newspaper in the flavour. 3.5/5 Lower than the average.
