Your “WOO-HOO! CANADIAN SPRING BREAK!” Saturday Night Open Thread

Ten days off! Let’s get this party started!!

I’m also 48 years-old. This feels aboot the right speed.

Being only 6 days out, I’m getting alcohol reminders in my email, letting me know what I should get to be the most excellent of hosts come the 17th.

While I’m not one for commemorative or celebrity bottles, this caught my attention.

Dubbed the official Irish whiskey of the legendary band, The Pogues is made in Skibbereen, west Cork. This blended whiskey is sweet and intense with notes of malt and cracked nuts.

Well, that town sure sounds like a Shane McGowan pronunciation. I looked at the reviews. While most were positive, this particular one stood out from the rest:

I am a big fan of Irish whiskey and a bigger fan of The Pogues. This stuff is almost undrinkable. What a disappointment.

So, you hate all their new stuff, then? Typical fan – “PLAY DIRTY OLD TOWN!”
