Cigar Lounges in Reno keep changing it up a notch.

Went to my fav cigar vendor and now he has turned it into a bar.

Looks like three times the fun compared to your average bar.  I need to go there.

Detel has related to me he does NOT like taste of something in the Guinness.

Ok.

 

Some 25 + years ago i assisted one of my bud's in a startup water testing lab.

He brought in a chemist to work in this million dollar lab, also picking up students from the local top schools,

He would simply give them a fluid sample and say "Run It" lets see whats in it.

 

Having a beer one day at a local Pub, he explained water sampling to me.

I thought, here test this, Budweiser was my brew, he was drinking Coors.

Two days later he called and said i better stop by as he has found a "New" beer we had better start drinking :o

I ask what the hell is going on? he stated when i read the report on the test, i would never drink Domestic again.

He was correct.

Bud is number one, coors two, and on down the list of chemicals found in "Domestic" beers.

 

We adjusted our taste to anything not domestic. quality standards overseas according to his test(s)

were far more "Pure".

I can find Antique fairly easily.  The 12 only comes out around November (here) and you have to be on your toes to get it.

November here, as well. It seems most never make it to the shelf. My favorite store sets a lot of the allocated stuff aside for their annual charity auction. They just had a bottle of the 12 and two Special Reserve store picks go for $375 at this year's auction.

The Special Reserve is available 24/7/365 around here.  I think it's $30-35/ bottle.

 

I've yet to score a bottle of Weller Larue though.
