@mclaincausey How does it compare to the 16? I buy a bottle of the 16 every year around this time, and I've been curious about the 11.

A nice sipper on a Saturday evening!

@seawolf it’s beyond serviceable but easily it is worth the premium for the 16 IMO.
Bought this for a friends birthday. Very good! Amazingly smooth for 106°
-
@mclaincausey from what I’ve seen, the 16 is coming down in price, so that’s always nice.

I love a Bloody Mary, but I'm always disappointed wit the ones available on airplanes. This time I brought a little kit with me to make the best of it.
The kit includes:
- Celery salt
- Fresh ground black pepper
- Tabasco sauce
- Celery stalk for garnish
-
Sazeracs, a bourbon sour with peach tea, and ultimately coffee martinis last night. The suspicious looking powder in the background is just chalk from a geology dig toy Hattie got for Christmas
-
@pechelman They're not for everyone, that's for sure. I completely understand why a cocktail made with tomato juice isn't for everyone. Honestly, liking bloody Marys is probably the unpopular opinion here.
-
I have to be in the mood and it has to be the morning but I’ll generally reach for a corpse #2, spritz, mimosa, or something similar for a morning drink. My favorite bloodies tend to have a lot of hot sauce, Worcestershire, celery seed, and ideally fixins to proxy a proper breakfast. Go ahead and toss a chicken wing on there
Think it, be it.

@mclaincausey A bloody can definitely be a meal. There's a place in Rhode Island that serves an oyster on a half shell on top of their bloody. Not exactly the meal you're talking about, but fun nonetheless. Ever order one in Wisconsin? They always serve it with a pony glass of beer. It's the standard across the state.
-
@seawolf yup, the pony thing is a little odd to me but I’ve had the bloody come out on a paddle with a tiny can of silver bullet or similar swill.
-
@mclaincausey I lived in WI for around 18 months, and it's an interesting place. Usually the pony would be a glass of New Glarus Spotted Cow, the local favorite.
-
@mclaincausey I’ve put A-1 steak sauce in bloodies on many occasions
