Is it optional for a sailor to drink Beer?

[rgranger]

Hmmm. Not in my experience, unfortunately.

From a Brit friend: "The only cure for a scotch hangover is time."

 

[rgranger]

Well.... try this. Do six shots of bourbon. Then next weeks do six shots of scotch . Then make your own decision.

Then make your own decision

Years of experience in this respect.

Love a decent single malt.
Laphroig, Lagavulen, Oban... no ice.

To the OPs question, yes, beer is optional.

I thought it was a couple of 1” shots of Drambuie.

some of us work from home, and the “network” doesn’t always support video on calls.

Good thing. Rumor has it you work in a speedo. That scares me. Now I am to believe you are also drinking . Oh the horror

re Perfect ice cube. ..... he makes special round ones for me and my Scotch.

Ice in any form is a good way to waste an otherwise perfectly good single malt. Thats as bad as putting ice cubes in beer!

Beer doesn’t last long enough to bother with ice.

Beer is kind of the opposite of saki, for me. You warm saki to cover an inferior style. Good beer is best at room temp.

I rarely pour my beer into a Yeti cup for the same reason. What’s the point in using something that efficient when I efficiently drink it so fast that it just plain can’t get warm?

After all, Frogs are cold blooded and cold beer keeps them that way

 

[Meriachee]

Superb.
On so many levels.
