re: #468 William Lewis
Used to be a big martini fan but these days a good Manhattan with rye whiskey is my preferred cocktail. Even more often though is using a shot glass like a tumbler and sipping from it with a beer on the side.
My aunt/guardian drank a variation on the boilermaker called a depth bomb—shotglass of rye dropped entire into a tall Iron City. She died of chirrosis at 93.
