The closest we get to horror themed brews in this bit of Scotland is the Kelpie Seaweed ale, or various creepy goblin ones from Wychwood...both excellent, but any Steampunk link there is very tenuous indeed! I'd say a good old-fashion gin or absinthe would be the best Steamy shop-bought drink - although if I can get my mittens on home brewing equipment, there's nothing like a nice set of bubbling, queer-smelling 'glassblower had hiccups' vials for giving the place that mad laboratory feel ;)Jemimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05148348969674034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119042395428183332.post-3715979064498456742011-05-02T15:14:46.369-07:002011-05-02T15:14:46.369-07:00St. Germain!

It was impressive, I tried the rum and it was tasty. It is now my go-to spiced rum, not just for the fun bottle, but also for the good taste. (Very vanilla-y). <br />And yes, I was very sad when my Kraken flashlight broke. I need a new one!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18438373530107891437noreply@blogger.com
