Sweet, simple and soft sums up Shortbarrel Four-Grain Bourbon
There is a significant number of consumers who would like this and buy it repeatedly. It's enough flavor and spice for them; approachable as an everyday drinker. This is the kind of whiskey that becomes a good seller that pays a lot of bills at the distillery.

Where beer geeks fear to tread
Today it's another chapter in the ongoing history of Dublin's Smithfield Brewing Company, last seen in this post from 2024. Back then, a shiny new brewing kit had been installed at the old soap factory on North King Street but there was no sign of the brewery opening, nor indeed of any brewing happening -- I understand there is a well-established contract brewing link to JJ's in Limerick. I suspect that will be the case for a little while yet, as the soap factory has been earmarked for redevelopment into student flats, meaning the brewery will be on the move again. Smithfield Brewing is part of a company which owns a small chain of central Dublin pubs, clustered around fashionable Fade Street, which are the only venues in which the beer is served. Finding out what they're pouring these days meant going undercover as one of the cool kids, to Drury Buildings, where four unfamiliar Smithfield beers were on tap. Smithfield IPA looks a bit flag-shippy, leftmost of the tap array and wi

Alcoholic Daze - Chapter 2
The continuation of the alcoholic saga which was first written in 2008 with some minor amendments..... He has not always been an alcoholic. We were married in 1976 and knew one another for 5 years before we married, so we were together in total for 39 years when he died in 2010 . We met as students studying German at university and we married in the very hot and humid summer of 1976. I should have known the omens were not boding well when we picked our honeymoon in Cornwall - the only two torrential rainy weeks of that summer. Some people joke that for a honeymoon it shouldn't matter what the weather is doing. Then, it didn't!! In retrospect, that was a sign I should have heeded! Until 4 years ago, the majority of our 39 years together had been fine. It had had its ups and downs, like I suspect most marriages, but we never doubted we would stay together forever. We had so much in common, both before we met and afterwards. Too much to lose if we drifted apart. It would be like losing a
