a pint of Old Elephant Foot IPA.
earlier i had a Mai Tai (rums= Pyrat and Barbancourt), and a cocktail I threw together comprised of 2 oz Barbancourt, 3 oz guava nectar, 1.5 oz pineapple juice, and 1.5 oz passionfruit cocktail. I swear it tastes somehow like a fresh mango.

Thanks to Hurricane Hayward for decoding the secret ingredient to "The Backscratcher" to wit: POG, also known as equal parts passion fruit juice, orange juice and guava juice. A nice fruity combination but as used in the backscratcher it yielded a far too sweet a drink for my palate.
However, I like that POG combination so I thought I'd mess about with it and here's what I cobbled together:
THE BACKBITER
1.5 oz of POG
1 oz fresh lime juice
.5 oz falernum (I used Fee Brothers)
,25 oz Cinnamon syrup (I used my extra rich home made)
1 dash Angostura bitters
1.5 oz of Cruzan Dark Rum (Now called 'Aged')
.5 oz Lemon Hart 151
I top-blended it with crushed ice and poured into a 12oz Collins glass adding ice to fill.
To my taste anyway, the Backbiter turned out to be pretty good.

Got back from my final Trader Vic's excursion before heading back to the US and I made the most of it- Kava Bowl, Suffering Bastard, Moka Nui, Mai Tai and the white Cloud.

The home version of the Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Rum from Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Resort. Coming soon to Disney World?
It's a somewhat mild version of the Painkiller, but you can jazz it up with a good rum. Disney paraphernalia sold separately.
Get the recipe here:

Mutiny -- One one my favorites!
"A superb blend of the finest rums, fresh tropical juices and a deadly splash of coffee. A daily ration, says the Skipper, prevents scurvy and discontentment within the crew."

Mai Tai (Mai-Kai version is not a traditional Vic version, but still a very good drink).
"The celebrated drink of the islands, made smoother here by the subtle introduction of Appleton 12 year old Jamaican rum."
