We aren't huge drinkers. Right now we have about 6-7 Angry Orchards, a bottle and a half of fruit loop flavored vodka (hah), a bottle of whiskey, and I think maybe a bottle of absinthe?
We live in a small apartment. We usually go out to drink, or encourage people to BYOB and then TakeYOB when we have parties.
Right now we have: 1 bottle or red wine (no idea what - it was a gift and I rarely drink red) 1/2 bottle of champagne 1 bottle of white (that I'm planning to drink tonight) 1/2 bottle of Dewars. 1/2 bottle of Absolut in the freezer
We have a new beer and cheese shop on our street that sells by the bottle, so if we want beer or wine, we can just pick up what we will drink for the evening/weekend.
Hard liquor: we could run a legit bar. At least two types of every spirit plus about 20 scotch/burbon/whisky bottles. Wine: 20 homemade bottles, 10 purchased, 5 gallons in fermentation Beer: 3 six packs in the fridge, probably 3 or 4 more that are being saved for various things. And maybe 10 belgian sized bottled. Two 5gal kegs carbonating in the kegorater.

We have three home brew kegs (5 gals each). The cheapass blonde is running low, but the other two, vanilla stout and brown nut, are still pretty full. There's also five gallons of apple wine fermenting in the spare bedroom.
There are a couple bottles of wine in the wine rack and at least one in the fridge.
For liquor we have vodka, tequila, rum, corn whiskey, and Irish whiskey. Maybe something else, but I'm too lazy to go look.
I just showed your picture to husband, also a bourbon drinker. Your top shelf is his dream.
he is SO proud of it! I actually bought 1 bottle of 12y Pappie for him at Christmas. Our local liquor store was adamant that they didn't receive any this year. I went in 3 days before Christmas and asked the guy for a suggestion for "my husband that likes the good stuff, Pappie, Eagle Rare, etc." he told me to wait a minute. When he came back, he whispered he had 1 bottle of 12y, did I want it? UM YEAH!
Needless to say, I felt the way my mom must have felt buying a freaking cabbage patch doll in the 80s. LOL I walked out with it in a paper bag buried in my purse, and no one was the wiser. I think DH is still trying to pay me back for that one.
Our husbands should be friends. Their collections are similar.
He loves drinking with other bourbon aficionados. In fact, he got his uncle started on collecting bourbons. This man has disposable cash for days and is so good at occasionally getting a hard to find bottle for H. H has time for like zero hobbies, so I'm pretty happy he's found something he enjoys so much.

My H would also like to get in on that. I know he has the Van Winkle in the middle of the top shelf, he has a Weller (not the same bottle, though), maybe whatever the top right bottle w/ the wide flat base (Willet? I think his is a Willet), and the Buffalo Trace. He also has a lot of Scotch, most of which I don't really care for that much. I like the bourbons better.
I'll let H know I'm finding drinking friends for him! Lol
He is so sad that I so dislike bourbon. I'm happy he enjoys it so much, but I'll stick to my fancy champagnes, tyvm.

Seriously! What a find! And, due to this post, I just received a 10 minute lesson in bourbons.

Oh, ugh, this reminds me that we have "Skittles Vodka" that my brother made for H.

DH loves microbrews so he'll pick up a few bottles here and there every weekend. He got quite a collection in the pantry right now. I think there's maybe 20-25 bottles?
And we also have a magnum of Moet, a magnum of Cooks and a bottle of Dom.
Oh, and a few bottles of lambics and a bottle of spatlase from Germany.

H has a decent scotch collection. He is not allowed to drink bourbon, as it makes him an asshole.
