I stopped by a local bar called Taco Mac and I guess they had 100 beers on tap.  Is that excessive?

Can there be too many options for a thing?  Hmmm.  I guess a person doesn't have to click if they don't want to.

What? Is that a real question?

I pondered it. Choice is usually good. Quite a few seemed to be apple cider things of some sort. They also have this "Brewversity" program where you sign up and drink however many different ones, or something.

I'm happy to have a good beer and I like different styles at different times, but if all I had was 4-5 different kinds of Sam Adams it would be OK with me.

Would I be as content with 4-5 different kinds of wine? Probably not, but maybe ten would suffice.

I can't post a picture, But for Fathers Day my thoughtful Son gave me a Bottle of Weller Red Label Bourbon Antique 107 proof 53.5% Alc. by volume .

It is hard to find up here in Ohio . If i don't post for a few days i cracked it open and indulged .
Thank you for picture

In the Bourbon world that red label Weller is called OWA (Old Weller Antique).

The 107 comes from the alcohol content (53.5x2=107).

Out here in Oregon they just nearly doubled the price of it, although it's relatively easy to find. Funny enough, the Weller 12 this year was 20% cheaper than the OWA!

$24 at Total Wines apparently.

W. L. Weller is a brand of "wheated" bourbon whiskey. The brand was created by the Stitzel-Weller Distilling Company, and was sold several times after 1972. Since 1999, the brand has been owned by the Sazerac Company and it is currently produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky.[1] Like all bourbons, Weller is distilled from a mash composed of at least 51% corn (maize). The secondary grain used for the Weller brand is wheat, whereas most bourbons use rye.

I'd like to try it sometime. I like the rye whiskies, usually, which are not bourbons, like Woodford. I'm partial to Woodford.

I'm a Makers Mark Brand Ambassador , but also very partial to Woodford. 

Rye Whiskies have a nice peppery aftertaste that some people find to strong, although not my favorites i do enjoy them occasionally.

Had a bottle of 2017 Claux by Chateau du Pape. Nice inexpensive bottle of wine, for restaurant pricing. Dinner was meh but thatâ€s how it goes.

Is that this?

The term "Chateau du Pape" could mean Chateauneuf du Pape.  Or not.

[somenole]

I only glanced at the label I did not take a photo. You may be correct. Or not.

[cincydawg]

Confusing terminology. Chateauneuf du Pape however is generally not "inexpensive", nor is Gigondas for that matter.

So, I guess we have no clue what you drank.

He drank wine.  Was it red or white?

[cincydawg]

Chateauneuf du Pape can be red or white, but Gigondas is all red. Neither is inexpensive.
