We transitioned from negronis to PBR. While every night is Friday and every morning is Monday these days, we had a bit too much of both -- taking it a little easy ... SO FAR.

@Jake: I grabbed a four-pack of that tonight!

Been seeing it around Brooklyn more lately, Jake.
  8:15pm
JakeGould:

Bought two four packs for $14 a pop. That’s $3.50 a can but worth it because I am happy to have found some place in deep Brooklyn that doesn’t just sell that Austin Cider stuff.
  8:16pm
JakeGould:

@Handy: Good taste! In my part of Brooklyn (Bay Ridge) it’s mainly piles of the same beer from the same brewers with vanity “craft” labels. So happy to find that.

Jett:

I usually play the Bull Moose Jackson version of "Why Don't You Haul Off And Love Me" here at home. I like that one a lot!
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:18pm
Handy Haversack:

I first got it at the local fancy beer store, which I had not patronized in its first ten years ... but then added fancy ciders to the quarantini menu. But this is from the CTown! Who knew?

Also hand grinding coffee beans from Kos Kaffe in Park Slope because they are good people and hand grinding allows me to get exercise.

Smith & Forge Hard Cider. Not bad, but I prefer a little drier.
  8:20pm

I like the basic Woodchuck Cider but it’s not easy to fine anymore. More luck finding their cans of Rose and “Pear”sco which I am not 100% sold on.

I mostly support local craft beer Sun King Wee Mac, it's comparable to New Castle Brown Ale. I like it.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:23pm
Handy Haversack:

The Angry Orchard Stone Dry isn't bad.

Best find from the fancy beer store is the Urban Farm Fermentory ciders. Definitely the most Portland, Maine, thing this side of Big Blood! But their regular cider is great. And they have a seaweed one -- THAT is a wild ride!
  8:23pm
Finer Whiner:

JakeGould, you live in Park Slope? Didnuh know dat.
  8:24pm
JakeGould:

@FinerWhiner: No I don’t. I just like that cafe.

Ah, okay. I guess I meant more generally I didn't realize you were a Brooklynite. Come to think of it, I know nothing about you.

Nothing like mowing the lawn on a humid 90 degree August day and then shotgunning a couple of seaweed ciders in the shade.

Unfortunately, never been to Bilbao or any of the Basque country, maybe someday. Supposedly our decendants are from Ea.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:42pm
Handy Haversack:

We tried to learn some Catalan, at least enough to get by (we have a very close friend living in Barcelona), but it was a Romance language too far, it seemed that first trip. We forgot how to speak Castillan, French, everything. Took a few days to right the ship.

But we love it there. Santi (who's Basque!) speaks Catalan and takes us to some amazing places. And pickled asparagus with mayo is my new favorite salad!

Time to play "treats till I bleed" with the cats ... wish me luck.

You know what’s sad in NYC during this lockdown? You don’t hear real competent players just blasting music through a sax or trombone or something. Like some Chuck Mangione wanna-be wailing…
