samb Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Picked up a bottle of "Lucky Duck" from Walmart for about $4.00. Never heard of it 'til now. The shiraz is not terrible, but certainly nothing to brag about. It is in no way complex. It does not dance upon my palate. It goes well with the simple but ok custom-rolled NC (wouldnt taint a habano with it). It is supposedly a product of Australia. Ever heard of it?

greenpimp Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I refuse to drink wine that has a duck or fish on it or in the name. I will drink a rabbit, but that's as far as I go. I got rules and regulations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Gargett Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Kangaroo-yes. (hops)Penguin-no. (fins) what about a horse? never heard of it but suspect that it is some mob that has just grabbed some of the huge wine glut and shipped it offshore. probably cost them about 50c a litre to buy the juice.

Like fish. Plus Dogfish has breweries close by and I enjoy a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that reminds me I have some photos of that night I should post soon! when he says he does not drink $4 wine unless in sangria, what he means is he won't pay that much (unless he can add it to more crap).

jquest63 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Never had it, but sounds like a bargain if its drinkable! I've had 2 Buck Chuck (Paid $3/bottle) reds and whites. Not complex, lack depth of flavor, but drinkable if you don't have high expectations. Purchased at Trader Joe's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenpimp Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 what about a horse? Horse, yes. As long as it does not appear like a girly horse or contain Sauvignin blanc . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargazer14 Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Horse, yes. As long as it does not appear like a girly horse or contain Sauvignin blanc . does the horse have to be alive?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenpimp Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 does the horse have to be alive?... No. In fact dead may be better, depending on the horse. (like that one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfoster Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 i feel the same same way about breweries that have 'Dog' in their name. dont touch the stuff. Then you'd be out of luck at my house. The beer on tap is my own homebrew, curtesy of "Buen Perro Brewing" and most are named after dog themes and have won several awards. You're welcome to a glass of water, however -- Gary F.
