    It looks like a beer can, yet it says highball. What the heck is it?

    I think the nearest equivalent (not in terms of taste) is a canned Jim Beam highball that Suntory released earlier this year / last year.

    Aren’t their a few breweries around Burton-on-Trent? Lovely part of England.

    Oh man! Kanonkop! Nicest pinotage I had, 1998! Was about £1 a bottle at a restaurant in 2000. Came home and found it was about £80 a bottle in the uk!

    Not drinking this until tomorrow, but it arrived so that’s close enough. I prefer Speysides and this is a gem from the Flora and Fauna series of single malts that typically end up in blends.

    Any calvados recommendations? Added sugar seems to be a common nuisance with calvados.

    With some of the bad work I see, it wouldn't be a surprised if some of these "watchmakers" were drunk when they were servicing watches...
