Hmm, 74 out of 100 aint shabby. As for those I haven’t tried, well, suppose I haven’t sought them out. Funny that I’m up on the liquors, not so much on the wine. I have my reasons. Actually looking back on the list, there are a few things I’m pretty sure I have had, but need to try again, because apparently they just weren’t memorable enough. If you’re wondering what the hell some of these things are, go ask Darcy. He’s like a very polite drinks-specializing google.
Looks like Scofflaw’s Den, Stevi and Sam Harrigan are already in on the action. Looks like Marshall Stevi and I are about neck and neck. This will have to change.
