Baileys Orange Truffle? Daaamn

Chocolate and orange flavours go so well together, like them orange-flavoured choc wafers. Hotdam!

So it’s not surprising, altho its makin me crave it big time, that Baileys has one such liqueur out, combining Irish cream, Irish whisky, chocolate and orange.

I want it all over ice, now! Ice-cream will do too.

Come to papa..

This is the fifth flavoured Baileys, to add to the other flavours previously. Unfortunately, it’s a limited edition.

Dat aint right. No sir.

Only available in the UK and Australia, as well as select travel retail outlets including London Heathrow, London Gatwick and Sydney airports. Available between October 2012 and January 2013. RRP is £13.25.

Oktoberfest parties!

Guinness Anchor Bhd (GAB) was probably the first to kick-off its Oktoberfest celebrations, while Arthur’s Day season was still in session.

I’d bang those drums anytime

Social @ Publika was the spot. Paulaner was the featured beer, with the regular draught wheat version being served, as well as the special and iconic Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier, which comes in bottles (500ml, ABV 6%), from Munich, the home of the annual fest.

This is a lager, and is a lil malty, and quite crisp, with a sorta bitter tease at d finish.

Limited

The fun party saw all their beer taps in action, and a lamb rolling around on a spit provided food, which was awesome.

Tiger eh?

You can also get a huge-ass one-liter stein, and this year’s one is ceramic. Nice. But steep at 50 bucks, even if it’s full.

Cant remember where i left mine. Its probably still at Social.

Anyway, GAB’s Oktoberfest parties are listed here. Check ’em out for some good beer, food and merry-making. These Oktoberfest parties are goin down all over the Valley till Oct 31.

Drownworthy

 

OVER AT German restaurant Brotzeit, there are parties goin on too. And some kick-ass beers, as well as killa food.

Full house

The deputy German Ambassador joined in the festivities, and tapped a beer barrel at the exact time Oktoberfest launched in Munich. Here they do have the Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier on tap.

In fact, there’s a very good variety of beers, mostly in bottles.

There’s also the one-litre can (on the right) dat comes in a stein, and the two-litre bottle

A mixed bucket. Excellent

Fat monk likes to party. This double bock is sweetish/malty and strong (7.9%)

Food, by Chef Helmut, is great. I had the beef goulash to start.

Wacha lookin at?!

There’s also this crazy platter for hungry hogs.

Crazy enough?  (pix by Samuel “Superman” Ong)

There’s also a very entertaining band called Deriolama. Try to catch em in action.

Brotzeit will be having four more Oktoberfest parties listed here, and reservations are necessary.

Enjoy the Party Season prelude month / warm-up month of October. I sure will!

Absolut Unique – Limited Edition

Absolut is at it again. New bottle designs are out, and this time, it’s very unique. And vibrant. And happy.

Coz every bottle is different. They’re producing four million of these, but have created a method so that each is unique.

The bottles are basically regular Absolut-shaped ones, ‘cept they have a white label. And splash guns and algorithms and LSD were used on them. The production line was rewired.

And the designs & colours are pretty funky. Take a look at dis shit –

Look good enough to drink

They combined 38 bright colors and 51 abstract patterns, and a machine ensures randomness, so no two are alike. Cool-ass.

Yo PRM, can i have one?

According to Absolut, 94 quintillion uniquely-designed bottles could be produced before two identical ones appear. That’s more than 13 billion bottles per person on the planet.

Hmmm. I think they should go for it.

Absolut Unique is individually-numbered, available in 80 markets. They’re already in travel retail. Go get ’em!

Candies! Come get yor candies!
