Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: January 2010
Welcome to 2010, dear readers, and we have to say - we started this year like we've started many others. Souls crushed and barely able to get out of bed, bleary-eyed and headachey, we limped into 2010 like we did pretty much other year in this decade. The only difference was we were feeling the effects of an evil monster cold that tore its way through the Liquor Snob offices. It was like we had hangovers without the benefit of getting drunk first...not recommended.
We hope you didn't have such an unauspicious start to the year, but whether you did or didn't, check out the stories we covered in January below.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: December 2009
Happy New Year, Liquor Snob readers! We want to be among the first to welcome you to 2010 (the year we make contact, if you believe the movie's tagline), but before we get all starry-eyed about the beginning of a new decade we think it's time to look back a bit. December 2009 was a pretty good month - we played video games until our eyes and fingers bled, we sampled some holiday cheer with our friends, and Santa kicked some ass.
We took some time last month to get our things together and tie up some loose ends, and we plan to go into 2010 swinging. So let's buckle in, grab a cocktail shaker, and let loose into the new year (and the new decade). But before that, check out December's story after the jump.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: October 2009
Those of you who read the website with any regularity probably noticed that Liquor Snob refrained from any kind of Halloween shenanigans this year. We should probably come clean - we hate Halloween. Not covering it probably cost us some traffic, in terms of things like halloween cocktail searchers and whatnot, but guess what? We don't care.
As much as we like the integration of "slutty" into pretty much every costume, we don't want anything to do with a holiday that expects us to put on a costume that could interfere with our drinking or make us look like the guy pictured above (via Monster Land). So there.
That said, welcome to November, the home of Wild Turkey Day! Check out what we did end up writing about after the jump.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: September 2009
Ah, September, the month of Labor Day and the summer's death rattle. September started off rocky, but only got better, as we started our BarSmarts Wired course, tasted a whole mess of whisky with Johnnie Walker, and unleashed our rocket launchers on comic-themed cocktails.
The more we keep drinking, the more things are looking up!

Monthly Roundup: July & August 2009
It's been a rough summer for us here at Liquor Snob, but in the words of the great Lebowski, we will abide. In all the hubbub, we realized we never rounded up July, so you're in luck - we'll drop 'em both on you today.
So as you try to abide the change from summer to autumn (it's getting cold here in VT, anyway) you can warm yourself up with some of our hot little stories.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: June 2009
Our focus this month has really been on the Three Penny Taproom. Like, to the exclusion of posting to this site. Their beer...it's just so good when it touches our lips, you know? And then when we're full of beer we lose the motivation to write. We just want more beer. It's a vicious cycle. But it includes beer. So that's OK with us.
Don't worry. We'll get back on track now that the hazy, lazy days of summer will make it too hot to trek all the way to the bar. We think so, anyway. While we're drying out, check out what we found for you during the lovely month of June!

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: May 2009
We know April showers are supposed to bring May flowers, but for our money some of the best things that came out of last month were a bottle of Kubler Absinthe and this picture from one of their promotions. Well done, Kubler. Well done.
Don't get us wrong, some other cool stuff happened (we like our Jim Beam Red Stag Review, for example) but for some reason we've got Kubler on the brain. Check out our other stories after the jump.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: April 2009
If you were looking for a reason to drink last month (you don't need one - just drink...) it came in the form of tax day. April 15, the bogeyman that breathes down your neck for the first third of the year, has come and gone, and it's brought with it all sorts of good stuff. Find out all of April's reasons to drink after the jump.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: February 2009
We were all about the romance this month, featuring everything from an absinthe fountain in the female form, to (more or less) showing you how to saber the cork from a champagne bottle. We also printed our only recorded retraction, where due to reader demand we gave another go to Screech Rum...and liked it.
We also started the long day's journey into St. Patrick's night, getting our Irish on with Pint-Sized Ireland, the Dublin' Your Pleasure hoodie that features a spare beer pocket, and told you about an attempt to break the Guinness record for the world's largest pub crawl on St. Pat's in NYC. 'Twas a good month indeed.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: January 09
Just in case you drank so much during the Super Bowl last night you forgot what year it was...it's 2009. And a glorious 2009 it's been so far. Economic crises. Job cuts. Horrible economy. It'd be enough to drive us to drink every day if we weren't already close enough to walk.
But on the bright side, we covered some great stuff last month. From K:UL vodka to absinthe lollipops, and from birth (Preggatinis) to death (R.I.P. Sparks Energy Drink) we've got something to help you take the edge off.
Also, make sure to subscribe to our RSS Feed to stay up to date on all things booze.

Liquor Snob Monthly Roundup: November '08
November was a big month this year, what with Thanksgiving and all. Oh yeah, and the fact Liquor Snob moved its offices from Massachusetts to Vermont in our never ending quest to be as cold as possible so we won't need ice for our drinks. Plus, we released our Holiday Gift Guide for this year, with all sorts of stuff we found throughout the course of '08, and we'll be updating it as we get closer to the holidays. Yes, we know it seems like a shameless plug, but hey, it's what allows us to continue to be shameless drunks.
We found all sorts of other good stuff last month too...check everything out after the jump, and we hope you did your best to make this Thanksgiving a Wild Turkey Day.
