Was pleasantly surprised while in Spain by their range of alcohol free beer so far I have had San Miguel. Estrella Dam and Amstel all very drinkable and all 0% alcohol.
But mostly I have been drinking ice cold bottled water.

Last night it was a "Longboard Lager" from Kona Brewing Company, on the patio with festive lights and my ukulele. This morning it is a cup of very dark Sumatra on the back deck, sending evil messages of death to the deer who have defeated my deer fence and eaten my zucchini and kale.

A new whiskey, distilled in my hometown of Port Chester NY called, The Westchester.
It's pretty close to brilliant!

Right now? Tea - lapsang souchong, specifically. Evening started with a pilsener, then sake, rosé wine, plum wine, white wine, red wine, and finished off with a mug of a nice homemade barleywine. A little tea couldn't hurt, tastes pretty good.

Brewed ice tea earlier, a mix of black tea and mint in a 3/1 ratio, then chilled. No sugar needed.

With dinner, there was a really nice summer lager from a local brewery.

Tonight, a blue sapphire gin and tonic, using an Indian tonic water and fresh limes.

Not too much at any one time.

This morning it was a fresh brewed Kona coffee on the lanai. This evening, it was a Black Sands Porter on tap at Kona Brewery. Life is good.

Cheap Dollar Store breakfast blend coffee out of a cup with a broken handle. Getting ready to do battle with a twelve foot pre-lit Christmas tree. Going to replace the ratty door on one of the bathrooms later this morning. Putting a really nice Mirafone 5V Eb this afternoon. First Holiday concert tonight. Very busy but life is GREAT!

My sister-in-law brought this as a host/hostess gift on Thanksgiving. This is absolutely the BEST coffee I have ever tasted. It is from the Pancake Shop in Hot Springs, Ar.

Yes... I serve on the committee that puts the event on each year. My favorite beer glass is in the background. ... Thomas Kemper 'Big Fat Tuba' Oktoberfest Beer. I bought a dozen of them on Ebay several years ago and have not seen any for sale since.

13 Corners Whiskey, from Wishkah River Distillery in Aberdeen, WA on the not-so-populous Pacific coast. I believe it's half barley, maybe a third wheat and the rest rye - all Washington grain, I believe that may be a requirement imposed as part of the laws governing distilleries here. Anyway, a potent liquid that I enjoy the most when I drink the least, really - it's truly delicious, but it takes only a sip or two to make the point, and another sip or two to make you forget it.
