Every Monday is Moonshine Monday, where you can get a shot of Ole Smoky moonshine for only $5. Yesterday I decided to partake of the special. I usually get a banana pudding moonshine shot, which looks and tastes like liquid gold.<\/p>\n<p>However, yesterday I recalled a conversation from a few months ago.<\/p>\n<p>I walked into the Bear and took my usual seat next to fellow Bear regular Nappin&#8217; Ass Nate. Michael was bartending that day and he was telling Nate, &#8220;That girl who does the bleach shots, the one who works at Bardog, was just in here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Wait, someone&#8217;s shooting bleach?&#8221; I interrupted. &#8220;Do we need to have an intervention for this person?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, not bleach like Clorox,&#8221; Michael laughed. &#8220;It&#8217;s half blackberry moonshine, half peach moonshine. So, bleach.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This past Saturday we had our impromptu birthday party for Dani at Blind Bear after Bardog had to close down for the afternoon. I found myself seated next to the inventor of the bleach shot (who no longer works at Bardog by the way). Someone suggested a round of shots and she said, &#8220;You should get a bleach shot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t on Saturday because I&#8217;m so in love with the banana pudding flavor, but yesterday I thought, &#8220;Am I missing out?&#8221; So I ordered a bleach shot from Jeannette. I didn&#8217;t even have to explain what it was.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-26104\" src=\"http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?resize=453%2C500\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?resize=453%2C500 453w, http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?resize=272%2C300 272w, http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?resize=1200%2C1325 1200w, http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?w=1680 1680w, http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/bleach-shot.jpeg?w=2520 2520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 453px) 85vw, 453px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was pretty damn tasty!
