Have A Drink

We are back in Argentina for another wine episode. This time we focus on . . . Mendoza. What do these grapes have that others in the region don’t? Probably the terroir, it’s usually the terroir. So get ready for your wine mouth because we are going to be having a drink.

We make our way back to the land of Scotland, which region will we discuss today . . . all of them, I guess. We are talking about blending Scotch today. Does that mean we are talking about inferior products today? No, but we’ll get into that today, and maybe a little more. So relax and grab a Scotch, or maybe two, maybe put them together, and join us as we . . . Have a Drink.

“Just some good old podcasters . . . Never meanin’ no harm . . .” Okay, we got that out of our system, we are talking about moonshine today. The history might be a little sketchy, but if the Scotch and Bourbon episodes have taught us anything, it’s that most of the great distillers didn’t necessarily have the most legal starts. We can’t tell you to get any white lighting, but join us as we take this back road of drinking history, and have a drink.

It turns out Foster’s isn’t Australian for beer. It’s actually Japanese for “we own this beer now.” And that’s fine because Australia has its own distinct beer it can call it’s own, the Australian Sparkling Ale. We’ll discuss that today, and maybe an Australian brewery if we can find the time. So grab your knife, no that’s not a knife this is a . . . you know what never mind. Instead, let’s just Have a Drink.

Advertising is a powerful tool to get people to consume your goods. How much of why we buy things is because of taste, and how much of it is just how it was marketed. In the spirit of this let's take the Pepsi challenge. So we'll do a non-alcoholic blind taste test. So, join us as we caffeinate and have a drink.

Today’s episode is terrible, it’s about a gross drink that no one should . . . Bob, I’m revoking your intro writing privileges. We are talking about Bloody Marys, that classic hangover cure that doesn’t cure you, it just makes you drunk again. So grab whatever you want as a garnish, I recommend a rotisserie chicken, and join us as we have a drink. . . . Bob it’s not that gross, quit pretending to throw up!

Here we are . . . born to be kings, we’re the drinkers of the UNIVERSE! It’s a scotch episode and we are talking about the Highland region today, so forgive the movie reference. So this is one of the largest regions of Scotch-making with tons of distillers, and there can be more than one, so why don’t we get right to it, and have a drink.

I think someone is trying to tell me something. When we were picking topics I somehow ended up with Diet Sodas. . . Do I sound fat? If you can tell us at Feedback@haveadrink . . . nevermind. We’re talking about Diet sodas today, mostly what makes them diet, which are artificial sweeteners and holy crap there are a lot of them. There is a lot of conflicting information about how safe they are, and we probably aren’t qualified to weigh in, but we are qualified to Have a Drink (I mean I think I’m more husky than . . )

What comes to mind when you think of Rosé? Well stop thinking that, because it’s reductive and probably a bit sexist. Unless you were thinking it was just red and white wine mixed, which is not really correct but doesn’t have anything to do with sexism. Rosé is a type of wine with a long history and has been a big hit today, so we are going to pop a cork, pour a glass, and learn something today. And, obviously, have a drink.
