tsingtao started as the anglo german brewing company and no one really drinks johnny walker red.

i actually saw more of the henny, the fukianese weddings had the walker reds, but bleh, I meant amongst us wine snobs, no one really drinks johnny walker red =)

I'm certainly not drinking walker red or black or green or gold or blue on chinese new years.

Maybe going to pop some Cali and WA cabs.

for some, the henny is just a bottle filled with black tea. but i've also had the real deal henny at a wedding.

walker red is gross. red is symbolic but then martell is also red.

not a fan? not even the blue? i've had the jw double-black. it's smooth.

hard liqour makes it just so much harder to keep track of how much money I'm losing when I'm gambling

I'll be celebrating this year with a Chinese client of mine at Sun Wah in Chicago.

I'll be bringing a variety of hopped-up Three Floyds beers.

Maybe some riesling with some spicy Szechuan. Pinot with the roast duck. And some budweiser for my dad. I've bought Stone Brew, Chimay, Blue Moon, Russian River Brewery, and my dad will always rather pick the Bud.

Fixed

I was introduced to ginseng Brandy a long time ago which was actually pretty good.

I was going to have a Lafite and Coke.

Maybe I will pop a maotai

$54 off. There is a reason the bottle looks like a can of motor oil. I would rather drink castrol.

99 Masetto is on tap I hear. I won't get the full week in I have to be in Dallas on Monday. Had hoped to be in Taiwan with Ms Ingrid but the day job got in the way.

I wonder if it is just a coincedence that 2017, when I turn 50, will be the year of the cock.

Ahem. I think we call it a rooster.

I hope it shows better than the one I opened for Mr. and Mrs. Bman. The brett was over the top and it was very disappointing.

When I turn 60 it's the year of the horse. That'll make my wife ROTFLHFO. Just call me trigger

I'll be drinking Château Lafite and coke which the dealer, Rudy Kurniawan, assured me is the correct method of consumption for this type of Bordeaux.

Now that you mentioned it, I will remember whenever I see a castrol again.
Good thing I only use Mobil1 and Motul.

My new landlord gave me some Lucky Money. What should I do with it?
