Wine is a very Christian drink, I think

Pinot Noir - or "Spätburgunder" in German - is grown a lot where I live.

Really? Where can I get the Spätburgunder tree to grow one myself?

What about micro brewery beer ?

Let's open an extra thread for beer.
One should not mix wine and beer.

Wine may be mixed with lots of things.
Beer may be mixed with lots of things.

But never mix beer with wine!

I will offer this. The Lord does not forbid alcohol.
That is clear. We are free to be wise.

The warning is not to be drunk with wine but be sober minded and filled with the spirit. To much wine or any drink for that matter and then we are not clear in our thinking. My brother like to try that trick on me golfing. I play worse with a beer and he is just the opposite and can play better- It pisses me off because he plays better when he drinks. and we are really competitive with each other when golfing. So when he drinks and plays better I know how to ask a question about his choice of clubs that get in his dome. Of course I play stupid and say I was just wanting to know your reason for choosing that club.

I second that.

Any good garden centre sells wine plants.

I know one thing, I am glad Bud Light got dethroned as the number one beer.

The other thing? I've never liked it, it has no taste.

We have several micro's here in town that make nice IPA's. And there is a really good coffee stout here as well. It's seasonal, so we usually get a 6 pack of it. I still have a can of it left. They used to always be in bottles, and it was better then.

Yes I had an amazing chocolate coffee stout last year at a micro brewery that incredible. It was 11%

We should all book a trip someday and go to an Irish Pub and have a pint.

We had friends come here to town around Christmas, so we offered them our basement apartment to stay in.

He gave me a bottle of Woodford Reserve. I tasted it, and it was nice and smooth. Then I tasted Evan Williams and it straight up tasted like mildew.

I never noticed until I tasted the better stuff. I googled Evan Williams tasted like mildew, and others said the same thing.

Wine as a Blessing

But the Bible goes further than admitting that drinking is simply allowed. Throughout Scripture, the production and consumption of beer and wine are often connected to the covenant promises of God.



Under the old covenant, wine is a blessing (Deut 7:13; 11:14) and the absence of wine a curse (28:39, 51). When Israel looked to the future, God promises to flood them wine flowing from the mountaintops (Amos 9:14; Joel 3:18) and vats brimming with fresh wine (Joel 2:19, 24).



Jesus signals the beginning of such blessings by creating an over-abundance (150 gallons) of wine at Cana (John 2:1-10). And on the eve of his death, He sanctified a cup of wine as “the new covenant in my blood” (Luke 22:14-23). When Christ comes back, He’ll prepare “well-aged wine” (Isaiah 25:6)—the stuff I only notice on the top shelf but can never afford—and for theological reasons it will be served, as at Cana, in abundance.

Should Christians Drink Alcohol? - Theology in the raw

“Here are your keys,” muttered the secretary when I arrived to pick up the keys to my office at Aberdeen University, where I would be studying for my doctorate in theology. “It looks like you’re in The Old Brewery.” Intrigued by the name, I later found out that it reflected the building’s...

Yeah, so I tasted some hard root beer because the server I knew suggested it. Uh. It was 13% which she didn't tell me. You couldn't even tell it had alcohol in it by taste.

Redbreast was the other really good Irish Whiskey that everyone recommends . We tasted them side by side and my brother and I liked the Green Spot better.

She was like "Are you OK?" and they never ask that unless they know you ain't.
