My ol favourite is skank.

Post by Ayay »

Smirnoff was my choice way back. My last re-run of heads 'n tails was good except for a slight taint of tails in the middle cut. Put it on carbon an bought a bottle of Smirnoff to tide me over and WTF...I found the perfect match!

An aftertaste of brackish water, slightly skanky, triplestilled an tentimes filtered no less. Going back will take a lot of gettin used to.

Sounds like you need to increase your stock. Such an atrocity should never occur.

Can't imagine running out of my own stuff, gives me chills just thinking about it. Last time I had an experience like this was at a friends wedding reception in a town a couple of hours away. I supplied the booze but underestimated the consumption volume of the party. We finished it all off before the liquor stores had closed so some guys made a run to the store and brought back a bunch of mid to bottom shelf commercial stuff......

Yep, can't imagine. Did I mention that you need to increase your stock?

I spend a good bit of time on the road. I don't drink much when I'm away from the house, I can't stand to do it.
