Iron Heart Coaster - World Tour 2010-2012

[Katsushin]

Do it!

It's like having a couple of cute little exchange students for a while…

Also a great way to try and make your life look more interesting and fun than normal!

[Max Power]

Charly's ready, I'll send them coaster over to Austria this week, as soon as I can manage. In the meantime, I show the twins a glimpse of what they miss.

And this is a gentleman's (or boozehound's, only difference is the financial status) way to spend the evening.

Slainte!

Slainté laddy, great looking booze!..

Hey Max, that's a great collection. What's the whisky to the left of the Maker's Mark (white box). I can identify most of the whiskies there but not that one.

Sorry in advance for the off topic-ness.

[Max Power]

It's a miniature of Edradour, 10 Yo. The standard one.
The independent bottlings are Caol Ila x2, Bowmore, Clynelish, Longmorn and Highland Park 19 YO.
Not seen: Talisker 18 YO, Kilchoman 2nd release, Nikka Straight from the Barrel, Clynelish and Rosebank Miniatures.

MP, totally envious of your Malt collection, mine seems to disappear faster than I can collect it!

[Beatle]

and I think that is the right way to handle bottles

[Max Power]

The right way is to always buy more than you drink

(And the tin boxes hide, that many of them are empty already)

[Giles]

Sure, i have added you to the list…..

[Max Power]

Coasters have been sent to charly. Thanks for your patience, I wish I would have been able to update more regularily.

[Max Power]

Calling Charly for updates…

[charly]

Here you are, sorry for the delay. I'm nothing but busy these days.

Today I went to a small Spanish restaurant in the first district of Vienna to have dinner with my family:

Further pics will follow soon!

[Giles]

That's making e hungry and thirsty…

[Max Power]

Cool to see updates, and with that nice food…delicious!

[charly]

@Max:

Cool to see updates, and with that nice food…delicious!

Believe me, it was delicious

[charly]

Today the coasters managed to travel to Hungary 

The countryside is very flat here, this was some years ago (or million years ago?) the "Pannonian Sea".

The toponomy of some cities is very short (Sopron, Gyor), but for some it is very long, like the Irish ones, see the pics below and try to find the coaster:

Since in Hungary it is not allowed to drink when you drive (which is intelligent), I had to drink just water.

And tomorrow the coasters will leave for Romania.
I guess a new record: three countries within three days 

[charly]

As promised yesterday: after Austria and Hungary the coasters landed at the Bucharest Airport Otopeni / Romania today:

Here the look-out from my office in Ploiesti (the "Oil City", some 40 km north from Bucharest):

And here the skyline of Ploiesti, seen from my apartment. Sorry for the obstacles in the foreground 

My favorite beer is placed on the coasters. Silva is a Pilsener type, Stejar is a strong beer with 7 % alcohol.

Here the view from my kitchen, some minutes before a thunderstorm:

Will keep you updated …

[Beatle]

wow, awesome beer collection…what´s the reason for ur trips ?

[Seul]

Ploiesti has my kind of skyline…
