If anyone ever has a need to stay somewhere in lubbock, My drunk self was pretty happy with their bourbon selection when I got back to the Overton Hotel saturday, because apparently I took a picture of it. Of course this is coming from midland where you are just happy if the have makers.





This is also a great song for drinking whiskey on your back porch during a nice evening.

Good stuff!

I know bulliet bourbon is becoming my new favorite in the reasonable price range

I found some scotch tasting notes on another website I peruse. These are terrific...

Mike Avery on Glen Eden - 'If it were a person it would be a red-headed stepchild you'd have to beat...'

Robert Montgomery on House of Stuart - 'The best thing about it is that the plastic bottle is recyclable.'

Brian Palmer on Johnnie Walker Red Label - 'Keep Walking. That's what I'll do the next time I see it in a bar.'

Simon Godfrey on Isle of Jura 10yo - 'I wouldn't even use it to power the lawn mower.'

Bill Buchan on Sheep Dip - 'Sheep Dip by name, sheep dip by nature... Yeuchh..'

Keith Bourgeois on Speyburn 10yo - 'The smell of turpentine and the taste of shoe polish.'

Daniel Bond on Edradour 10yo - 'How did they make this? Burn gummibears and dissolve them in gasoline?'

Henk Daalmeijer on J&B - 'It keeps you smiling all night because it pulls your gums back over your teeth.'

Harry Butler on Old Smuggler - 'Its singular redeeming quality is the finish that vanishes within seconds.'

W. Morgenstern on Loch Dhu 10yo - 'This stuff is like licking an ashtray.'

David Means on Loch Dhu 10yo - 'Needs no water. What it really needs is to be poured down the nearest sink.'

Christos Sigalas on Tullibardine 10yo - 'It's like licking Wembley's Arena green grass. Good only for drunk hooligans.'

W. Ripley on Mekong - 'Never drink anything that only gets a lukewarm recommendation from an Australian infantryman!'

S. Godfrey on Tobermory - 'While Tobermory may be a fine name for a womble, as a whisky it should be avoided at all costs.'

DIY Copper Moonshine Still Kit From Clawhammer Supply

Monday, April 28, 2014
By: Mattie Schuler




Behold the copper moonshine still for home-distillation from Clawhammer Supply, a small company started by one guy who really likes beer.

The coolest part? You build the still yourself. With the kit, you’ll get pre-drilled machine-cut parts, copper rivets, plus all the required pipe and fitting. Grab a hammer, a plumbing torch, a small spool of lead-free plumbing solder, some pliers, sandpaper, and maybe a vise—oh, and your computer to follow the step-by-step online videos.

A few hours later, and you’ve got a five-gallon moonshine still.

$249, clawhammersupply.com

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't distilling anything, even for personal consumption, illegal?

No, you can own a still and distill your own water. Liquor on the other hand is completely illegal without a license.
