Winter Solstice Fire 2015
It all started out with champagne, celebrating Team Tartan’s 2015 Leukemia Cup accomplishment with a crop of Timex watches. (About which this.)
bubbles
Burn barrel before the lighting
Then it got dark, the keg was tapped, the cheesy xmas music was put on infinite repeat in the barn, burn barrels were lit, and off we went! Early birds got to see the bonfire lighting. Middle birds got to see music and sparkling guitars. Late birds shut down the bar inside with Berryville Passages at 6am. Are we too old for this? No we are not.
Fire
Who let the banjo player in?
Fire too
Thanks to one and all for coming! We turned the sun around again!

On repeal day (82 years into the project), we gathered a set of major musicians, set up a drum kit by the bar and played some music.

mixology, who knows berryville passage, mixology, prohibition, repeal, Repeal Day, shine Leave a comment
80 years ago today, Prohibition was repealed. I believe we will celebrate with a Berryville Passage (even though it may not be all the way legal itself).
One of these things is not (quite) like the others.
Shine on you crazy diamond.

mixology berryville passage 10 Comments
Finally a drink worthy of publishing. Without further ado:
The Berryville Passage
1.5 Shine
.5 Dolin’s sweet vermouth
.5 Dolin’s dry vermouth
.5 Yellow Chartreuse
1 dash Fee Brothers Black Walnut bitters
1 dash Angustora
Wash a cocktail glass with smokey scotch (I am using High West Campfire Whiskey). Shake. Flame a lemon peel over the drink. Drop in peel. (Luxardo cherry optional.)
