Mizmazzle’s Trip Across the Pond

@americanathreads @Jett129 @seawolf
This Redbreast PX is the hands down winner thus far. I will be tracking this one down.

@Mizmazzle
the food looks awesome!
so much good food and drinks may result in upsizing when reaching Gos Vegas

[AdamC]

Great pics @Mizmazzle loving seeing your adventures

[SKT]

Truly enjoying this man, thanks for all the updates and letting us follow along! Pics are amazing (and I’m going to have to try some of that whiskey)

@Mizmazzle perhaps it’s just the angle, but that looks like a proper pour…

@Mizmazzle said in Mizmazzle’s Trip Across the Pond:

Though I do find the pours round these parts to be a bit on the shy side…

Wait till you get here:

"In the Republic of Ireland, the standard measure for spirits in licensed premises is 35.5ml. This measure is equivalent to one standard drink containing approximately 10 grams of pure alcohol. In contrast, the standard measure in Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) is 25ml."

@Mizmazzle I will also definitely be keeping my eyes open for that one. Hadn’t previously heard of it.

@Mizmazzle just awesome buddy. And thank feck the VW car rental has a dark interior

[Denman John]

@Mizmazzle Pure awesomeness!

@Giles you uncivilized heathens, keeping a proper shot from the masses.

[goosehd]

…but on the other hand, you did keep up daily rations for sailors longer than most.

[Alex]

Yeah, the first time I ordered a double whiskey in america (50ml in the UK), I got a bit more of a buzz than I was anticipating

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle Any chance you’ll be near Cork,where the Red Breast distillery is? A tour would probably be way too much fun.

[Mizmazzle]

@Giles oh damn! That’s a little depressing haha

[Mizmazzle]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot must be the angle. Cause the pours are standard across all the pubs.

@Mizmazzle great stuff, Mark. Looks like a great little town. Loving the side story of Redbreast discovery in Ireland . The PX is stellar. Redbreast 27 is next!

Btw, duty free at Dublin Airport is a great place for whiskey shopping. They usually have an amazing Redbreast selection (cheaper too, obviously).

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 we actually fly out of Cork to Bristol on Saturday. Don’t think we’ll have time to do the distillery though. When you mentioned it I almost rearranged our plans to make it happen. That’s how much I’m digging the Redbreast. But we’re having too much fun in these little coastal villages to leave any sooner than we have to. Thank god for the Duty Free @americanathreads

[Mizmazzle]

@Alex oh man! It’s not uncommon to get half a pint glass full for a pour in some of the dive bars around my house.

[Mizmazzle]

@flannel-slut ha! I’ll probably have to use a putty knife to scrap these 822s off my legs by the end of this trip!
@SKT today we went to the only island I’ve ever been to where jeans and flannels were proper June attire. Almost a bizzaro world inverse…not gonna lie…I loved it!!

[Mizmazzle]

@Daniel-San ha! Man, this is not even a far off exaggeration at this point. And we’re only 5 days in on this trip!

@AdamC thanks!! This place is so damn beautiful and the people are the coolest.
