@OffcolorBrewing Hello! Sorry if this is a silly question, but I can’t find any information online about yours. Do you offer them?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@weygandtwines Hello! I saw the Ameztoi Rubentis Rosado (Txakoli rosé) at your shop recently. Any idea if it’s still in stock there?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@ShaofHappiness @NikaHarper I don’t really speak Latin — I’ve merely dabbled. And it’s true, we barmen are compelling figures. ;)

@Bobby_Heugel @LukeAndrews I was told they’ve started blending the BiB with older stock—still no NGS, though—to help meet increasing demand.

@STM1073 @paolosti @heyfrase Happy to help “raise your spirits” today, Sarah, et al. ;)

At 2 Birds 1 Stone — New England 1807: Rhum Neisson Ambre, Smith & Cross, maple syrup, molé bitters, Islay rinse.

@gloriaboboria So 11 is okay?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@speed317 Butter ALL the things! I’m thinking of writing an ode to Celiac: “Gluten for Punishment.”

Just a gentle reminder that 'pursue' and 'peruse' are not the same word. Pursue knowledge; peruse a dictionary.

@speed317 Three words for you: Heatproof crazy straw. Never will you have to grasp blindly again!

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@speed317 I love Pentatonix, and the Daft Punk medley is probably my favorite of their works. I have a general weakness for a cappella. ;)

Guest asked me for the perfect nightcap, so I made him an Exit Strategy (of course, attributed to @NitecapNYC). He raved about it!

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@NitecapNYC How late are you folks open tonight? ‘Til 4, I hope?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

Does anyone in NYC have an “O” Blanton’s bottle top I can buy or have? It’s the last one I need for a gift for a friend. Thanks regardless!

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@gloriaboboria No squeezes to speak of, but, just to be clear, I’m not particularly looking for a booty call. Unless I’ve misinterpreted?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@gloriaboboria Yep, in Manhattan; you should come visit! Would love to meet you in person after talking to you for all these years online.

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@gloriaboboria Aw, how sweet! I miss our glory days, too, m’dear. What prompted this lovely tweet?

[Eric Lawrence Jeffus @orpheum]

@fonzette Yep, New York hasn’t killed me yet. Adventure abounds, but lately I haven’t felt compelled to record it all. That’ll change. :)

Little girl (maybe 6?) to her mother, handing over a doll upon receiving a mocktail: “Hold my baby while I drink.” Cutest moment of my week.

Found Johnnie Walker Green Label (now-discontinued blended malt w/ Talisker, Caol Ila, Cragganmore, and Linkwood) at a bar here. Sláinte! :)
