Fat ass in a glass.

I’ve tried a lot of different drinks in my life. Sex on the beach. Fuzzy navel. Zombie mudslut. But can you imagine ordering a Fat ass in a glass? There was an article in the Washington Post, A Bittersweet ‘Champagne of Maine’ about a coffee brandy that is really big in Maine. Though I’ve never tasted it, the article says it tastes like equal parts alcohol, sugar and coffee-pot slag and adds that “it puckers the cheeks, coats the tongue with syrupy sweetness and leaves a mouthwash feeling on the lips.” Sounds oh, so appealing.
Evidently Allen’s Coffee Flavored Brandy is the most popular hard liquor in Maine, with 98,000 cases of 60-proof drink sold each year. That’s 1, 176,000 bottles. Considering that the population of Maine is 1,321,505… well, you get the picture.
In all seriousness, it seems that there’s a real problem in Maine. Maybe it’s because it’s so damn cold. Everyone knows that brandy warms the soul, right?
Allen’s mixed with milk or cream is called a Sombrero. But I really love the drink’s popular nickname — ‘fat ass in a glass’. It also has a couple other nicknames, Maine Martini, Slut Juice, Wide Russian, a Poor White Russian Trash. I’m sorry – do you know any other drink that has 5 nicknames?
Jeff & Michele, when I visit you up there, can we make some?
Sounds like a drink for the poker group…I’ll have a fat ass in a glass…and raise you…
I’m trying to come up with a witty fat-ass remark, but I got nuthin! At any rate, it doesn’t sound…very good. What’s coffee slag, I don’t think I like it.
More importantly, Jeff and Michele are my ex-husband and his wife. Have you been hanging out with them talking about me behind my back?
So funny! Jeff & Michele are my brother & sister-in-law in Maine!
A fat ass in a glass could only help my poker game; haven’t had a good win since Denise left!!
