Really nice use of alchemy. This is a parlor trick that’s been getting passed around the web. I will be trying it out tonight. They did a great job filming this.

Places to Visit #4: H.R. Giger Bar / Museum

November 23, 2011 – 9:22 AM

Have always loved H.R. Giger’s work, but this bar looks fantastic in his museum located in Gruyères, Switzerland. Take me there, give me a drink and put on some Ali Renault, and I’ll be happy.

It’s not alchol. It’s not whiskey. It’s Arkay.

November 21, 2011 – 1:16 PM

Wow. Non-alcholic whiskey. What a strange notion, and utterly stupid idea. Maybe they had recovering alcoholics in mind? Visit their site here. ArKay is made with artificial ingredients and flavors in accordance with European Economic Community (EEC) regulations and within the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. Both the flavor and ingredients are conformed [...]

Hennesy Youngman talks his new drink – Sunkist + Woodford

November 1, 2011 – 10:25 PM

Fresh off the presses internet! Hennesy Youngman talks some time off the rigorous and exhausting art scene to discuss his new drink of choice, “Sun Over North Philly”: Sunkist and Woodford reserve (brown liquor). Complex flavor profiles and deep side-talkin’. I’ll drink about 15 of those bartender. Love this guy.

Kidult Anti-Advertising Agency Tee Shirt

October 9, 2011 – 8:41 PM

Seems Kidult is on a new tee-shirt launch, no details, but all concept and ironic angst judging by the title. Can’t wait until Highsnobiety picks it up. Love this guy. Keep up the good work, keep it left. Tee shirts graphics suck, but do what you gotta do and keep it accessible until the next [...]

Whiskey Vending Machine – someone buy me this!

September 15, 2011 – 3:11 PM

Someone please buy this for me for Christmas and stock it with the Bucks County rye “Dad’s Hat” I posted about earlier. Perhaps I could just make my own using the Sodastream Carbonator that everyone is raving about. Maybe I’ll just make whiskey soda. This machine is from 1960, shown at the Second Automatic Vending [...]

Bucks County Rye Whiskey – “Dad’s Hat”

September 15, 2011 – 11:09 AM

Herman Mihalich, an artisan whisky distiller in Bristol, PA is bringing back Pennsylvania rye whiskey in small batches. According to their site “Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey is truly America’s Original Whiskey”, up until 1920 when prohibition was enforced and the whiskey dogs were forced out of business, never to rekindle the tradition. According to the history [...]

A pre-internet “Facebook” Handle

August 5, 2011 – 1:20 AM

I met mad people through a phone line and a web site, but it wasn’t quite internet, because you had to call a phone line with a thing called a modem who’s speed was either one of the four: 2400/4800/9600/14400baud.. We called this BBS, or Bulletin Board Service. RIP CoRK! Below, was my service called [...]

SF Absolut Vodka

July 21, 2011 – 1:09 PM

Thought it was just a pretty limited edition bottle when I put this at the store, but it’s actually an infusion of grape, papaya, and dragonfruit. Tastes terrible and chemical-like in my opinion. Not sure the correlation of SF to these flavor profiles. According to some internet sources the grape represents “wine country” and the [...]

Bulleit and Bourbon in a Can

December 2, 2010 – 2:09 PM

Dude. OMFG – bulleit bourbon and cola together in a beautiful can. If I lived in England I would be all over this, and probably getting way alcoholic. Why can’t they sell this here? How about some fernet and ginger ale in a can? Original link here. I need my cousins to send this over [...]

Yuengling Maybe Coming to San Francisco? Please say it’s so.

October 22, 2010 – 1:10 PM

I really hope they bring yanger here to San Francisco. So sick of all the nuts and twigs and hop beers here. This was an East Coast favorite for sure. Link here. Remember the first beer you learned to order in a bar? You know, your go-to choice when you were too young to know [...]

The best TV commercial since Dos Equis ~ Jameson Whiskey ~

October 24, 2009 – 11:45 AM

While it’s a well known fact alcoholism and advertising are like a pea in a pod, Jameson Whiskey’s new commercial is some of the best TV work we’ve seen since the Dos Equis “most intersting man” spots. Really enticing, magical work that features a giant beat of mythical proportions and a man’s quest into the [...]
