In Esquire’s martini recipe you’ll find the Hoffman House variation. Suffice it to say, this excites me a great deal - as it is not every day you find a drink with your last name in it (even if it is short one N).
PS - if you’ve never used Esquire’s Drinks Database, well…there’s nothing I can do for you.

Your mind has just been blown.
How is this even right?
The Beatles formed in 1960, and even if you allow for the iteration with Ringo starting in 1962, that’s 29 years from 1991 - the year that Nevermind was released.
Nirvana formed in 1987, which was 23 years ago. And, since we’re fudging the numbers for drummers, if you allow for the iteration with Dave Grohl, we have to jump to 1990 - which brings that number down to 20.

This review of Eagle Rare bourbon is a little out of control. However, as a public service announcement, I have to say that it is delicious and makes great old fashioneds and Manhattans at home. And, bonus, Otto’s carries it for just $20/bottle.
“Fasten your seatbelts”
Here’s something I’ll probably catch hell for saying, but…
I am of the opinion that what Joe Cocker did best was make Beatles’ songs so much fucking better. Hey, bands in 2010, more JC, plz!
Anyway, here’s a video of Dawes covering Joe Cocker covering the Beatles. (YES.) Also, Dawes will be in Milwaukee on V-Day.
