If you could only take ONE unlimited supply of alcoholic beverage with you to a desert Island.....

Gotta drink something while you are watching your only TV series!

I figured if I'm going to kill the liver might as do it with Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA

I was a Johnny Walker Red drinker for many years, but the price kept going up and up.

When I retired, I needed to find a cheaper Scotch.
100 Pipers is it!

Shiner Ryes & Shine — A rye lager; was available in Shiner Family Packs (1 bottle per 6-pack) and was the second in the "Brewer's Pride" Limited Edition series.

and most thought it a weak lager. I don't agree, but I also have a lower tolerance to alcohol. I found the flavor wonderful, and wish it wasn't a limited edition.

I believe Real Ale out of Blanco, Texas, has a rye ale that's worth a try

I grew up in Texas and chicken fried steak with a Shiner Bock is heaven to me.

Those Real Ales look pretty sporty too!

Two each of three of their more popular brews. I haven't had any of their products I didn't like, either

I'll take a couple of CT locals and go with two:

From New England Brewing

Gandhi Bot dIPA


and from Stubborn Beauty Brewing
Speaking In Tongues black IPA


I just recently found the Stubborn Beauty guys and they're nice and close to home.

so we can assume there is a refrigerator & ice maker there too.

Or at least a decent kegmaster.

I'll unplug the tv so I can recharge my Kindle but I will gladly trade the Kindle for a wheel of Port Salut.

Canadian Club would be great too, just straight over ice, but ice might be a problem on desert island.
