So the bourbon is low

Squeeze a lime in there as well. Much improvement.

I might have to put on the mask and hit Total Wine tomorrow. We're going through the booze supply like Grant through Richmond. I recommend the Bermuda Rum Swizzle. Dark rum, OJ, pineapple juice, bitters and grenadine. You'll get diabetes but who gives AF now.

The tap house down the street miraculously hasn't closed yet so I'm going to be a #RealHero and go get a couple crowlers

Other than stocking up on some beers from the local breweries a week or so ago, I haven’t bought any new booze.
I’m in my 3rd bottle of gin. Killed what was left of the tequila, and vodka is down to the dregs.
Beer is almost gone. As is the good scotch.
Lots of wine and bourbon left.
Low on tonic and bitters, out of Campari and vermouth.
Still have some novelty booze, but the longer this goes, the more likely it gets used up too.
I’m gonna have to make the mother of all booze runs to restock once this all shakes out.
At this rate, the house will be dry in less than 30 days... -

This experience has convinced me I’d be well adapted for space travel and life on Mars. Just need booze and an internet connection.GrundleStiltzkin said:So you guysm are actually staying in your house the whole tim?

Do you have any gerbils?MikeDamone said: -
I thought I was stocked up with beer to the point it would be impossible to run out, but my consumption rate has easily doubled if not tripled, so I'm drinking my last beer as I type this other than an emergency Rainier in the shop fridge (break glass in case of emergency). I told the Mrs. we need to move the bi-weekly grocery store run to tomorrow so I can restock.

Yeah that’s the problem exactly. The supplies were budgeted with normal consumption in mind. However, we’ve been drinking more than usual.

The Throbber is fine with drinking more. Don't twist.

I killed my first two 5 gallon kegs the first week. Admittedly, that included giving a few friends some care package growlers. Kegged another two 5 gallons(an IPA and a chico style ale) and spent a day brewing another two batches(hefe and a red ale) but realized I would probably go through those as well within April. Sent my order to Northern Brewers for another two recipe kits just to be safe. The Kegerator is paying dividends in this time of need. Have had maybe a can or two bottles otherwise just to change things up. Plus, I keep our mixers in there for Mrs. Bot since the fridge is fucking packed otherwise.1to392831weretaken said:I thought I was stocked up with beer to the point it would be impossible to run out, but my consumption rate has easily doubled if not tripled, so I'm drinking my last beer as I type this other than an emergency Rainier in the shop fridge (break glass in case of emergency).

My brother is the biggest beer snob I've ever seen. He has a "beer room" built into his garage in which he stores all of the beers he trades all over the country for. That collection is worth over $6K at last look--down from a peak of over $7K, as he's decided to decrease the ratio of collecting to drinking over the last couple of years. Anyway, he also bit on a craigslist ad for the most ridiculous commercial beer fridge. Already had a four tap keg system built into the side wall, even. This thing weighs like 800 pounds of stainless steel and insulation and is about as big as two standard fridges side by side. It was like $1000 yet somehow totally worth it. If you want to increase your beer storage capability, look around. There are some cool deals out there from restaurants going under and whatnot.UW_Doog_Bot said:

How's his Beanie Baby collection?
That said, I remember my wine collection phrase.
I had about 1000 bottles worth about 80k. I even rented storage space. I realized my palate sucks and I can't tell the difference between a $50 bottle and a $500 bottle. I sold it all and made a little profit. I now just buy wines to drink. I have at least 2 merlots that drink like cabs.
