But a Gaelic Storm would use Scotch instead of Irish whiskey, and a dram of Drambuí. Drop that jigger of Jacobitism into a 3/4 full pint glass of Guinness, point the bottom of the glass up high to the stars that Oscar the Wilde was looking at, and you have united the Gaelic tribes of both Inis Fáil and Pictland against the Saxon foe. Cú Chulain himself would be proud. And if you keep drinking these, you will be spinning around inside your skin like the Champion of Ulster as well. Up the rebels!!!

Bumped because this one is just damn fine.

Nice bump, Frank. Very tasty those are.

i was playing guitar last night at a pub here in town. One of the fans decided they'd make posters for the gig and dropped them off at the bar. I think our PR person had been over-served as they drafted the poster. Not only did they include the wrong date - 11/31/08? - but they also advertised the evening drink special for those that attended the show - "Irish Car Boobs".

We're a celtic/rock group, but the manager of the pub came up and asked what an "Irish Car Boob" was - we lied and told her it was a Slippery Nipple made with Bailey's and Jamesons.

I think she believed us....

I love the history of the Gaelic Storm, but the idea of mixing a Rusty Nail with Guinness turns my stomach. I'm not much of a Drambuie fan though.

Also, I fully agree that a Belfast bomb has Bushmills, not Jameson.

And the description by J&G rocked as well.

A quick nod to Jacobitism, a short jig around the Clans of Inis Fail and the Saxon Foe, and a tip of the tweed cap to the hero Cu Chulain..... well written indeed.

We were Drunkards once, and young.

Giving the requisite bump to an all time great drink.

I forgot about that. There's enough mirth and merriment to be had in Rochester...I may well have to try to get out for a weekend. Someday.
