Actually tonight is a Coors Light night there was a sale on 16 oz cans. Though the micro brews here are very good. Ale Smith and Stone especially.Originally posted by Asher

In the whiskey family at least, one test of how good any particular booze is would be how much you enjoy drinking it straight. In that test, in my (rather considerable) experience, single malts outshine all but the very best blended whiskeys. I think one can acknowledge that and not be a scotch snob; in fact, I prefer neat bourbon, blended Irish whiskey, and Tennesee sipping whiskey to single malts scotches, but I still see the argument in their favor."I have as much authority as the pope. I just don't have as many people who believe it." — George CarlinComment

Sure. Single malt scotches can be incredibly complex; -Jrabbit's comparison to wine is a good one. It's certainly possible to appreciate complexity and still not have it be "your thing"; I appreciate the complexity of chess and Mozart, but still prefer poker and Duke Ellington. But, yeah, that leads to scotch snobbiness in some, which is silly."I have as much authority as the pope. I just don't have as many people who believe it." — George CarlinComment

I haven't had a drink of whiskey other than single malt scotches. One thing I can say about single malt scotch: it's not often swill.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

I'm new to scotch, and I've only had one blended kind (Dewar's). It was okay, not as good as Oban or Glenfiddich. I don't know whether that signifies anything on a larger scale. Probably not; it was also a hundred times better than Glenlivet and about a thousand times better than the crappy scotch I first tasted at a party.Comment

I sip my single-malt scotch out of a coffee cup in my very messy room (probably with the smell of dirty clothes) while playing EVE or other video games.

If you want ice in your single malt, then do it, but you would be way better off just adding a little water.
Also, try sniffing before drinking.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
