The wife and I are big fans of the Shiner Cheer. I stocked a case in the basement beer fridge the day before Thanksgiving and it's down to a bottle or two.
Man your good. If I had your control I'd still be drinking.

Slacker! Without labeling myself an alcoholic, I also bought a 750 ml bottle of Bulliet Rye Whiskey, eight cans of ginger beer (Moscow Mules) and three other various six packs. All but the beer is now gone. Anyone know local AA meeting times?

OK, you are forgiven. Check with Ed W, he works at (what used to be) AA.

I like both. Their bourbon isn't my favorite bourbon, but their rye is my favorite of those sold locally. My favorite American whiskey right now is a George Dickel Nine Year Sour Mash that I purchased from Caskers.com. It is about 8% rye, but I really like its smooth profile. Link to their site. They send out an email every few days about their selections. Some of it is available in Oklahoma, but most is not They'll ship to my office here in Tulsa. https://www.caskers.com/?ref=MDoyOjFlNTliYzM0ZjdmMmY1YTQ6YTk5dHhqb2NrYXliNFo2YVdMTURXUT09

I will take you up on that. Big fan of Bullet Rye, but always open to options. Do you have a suggestion?

Meh, only popular because of prohibition and illegal bootlegging into the US. Pretty much all Canadian whiskey is a "rye whiskey". Rye whiskey was hardly distilled in the US for the last sixty years. With the resurgence in whiskey I believe the craft whiskey movement in America will produce great products. That said, Pendeleton's Rye is a nice whiskey. But, even its packaged and sold in Oregon after distilling in Canada. Masterson's is another good Canadian Rye. I've had it in the Tobacco Old Fashioned at Hodge's Bend and its tasty in that drink.

OK, you are forgiven. Check with Ed W, he works at (what used to be) AA. The AA I work for has a zero tolerance policy toward alcohol and drugs. They'll put an employee through alcohol rehab once, but subsequent rehabs are paid out of pocket. After that first visit, the employee is subject to random testing at least once a month. Because of the relatively small candidate pool, it sometimes works out to once a week. Any positive drug test is grounds for dismissal. This bothers me because my government can't force me to piss in a bottle to prove I'm drug free, yet my employer can do so at the behest of the government. This has been an interesting thread. I'm thinking about getting some good whiskey for the holidays, and you are all giving me some great ideas.
