Yeah, it hurt saying that. Might as well come out and say I was joking before I get neg-repped. You don't mix Scotch. I know this.

Typing on the phone. Didn't feel like it. Thanks for the suggestion.

I knew you'd thank me.
Love them. Macallan 12 was the best bottle in the place. I think the only other single malt in the bar was Glenlivet. The top shelf was limited.
Anyway, I probably wouldn't have gone with an Islay in that situation anyway. I was also splitting pitchers of Ellie's Brown with my wife. With a brown ale with those toasty malt and sweet notes from my beer, the peatiness from an Islay would have been either off or wasted. Laphroig stands on its own. Maybe with a nice cigar, but never with a beer or other chaser.
Besides, even after explaining that Scotch is served need with a small splash of water to open things up, what I was served was watered down and tasted like it was at least 1/3 water.

I'm aware you know what you're doing, but always perform the splash yourself (not a euphemism). And Christ, Scotch Whiskey and beer?
That's the level of respect I have for Macallan. It's nice, but it's not something I make a big deal out of. I just felt like a drink.
Good thread. Would read again.
Has anyone been to the Ralphie's in Lafayette?
A new location just opened in Boulder on Arapahoe at the 5400 block. Might be something to check out for the Ohio State game since the location is so close to the Foothills Parkway that it will be easy for people to get to if they're coming from Longmont or east on the 36 corridor.
