I looked and looked for the old one, but I found nothing.....


So I'm starting a new one, simply because I love talking about beer and whiskey!

I got a bunch of these this afternoon, only 50p a bottle, Do you american folk drink it much?

I don't mind it, it reminds me of a few Australian beers, kind of like Tooheys extra Dry but not as crisp.

As a highly educated beer nerd I can say without equivocation the America makes some of the best beers in the world (on par with England, Germany and Belgium) Please don't hold Bud, Miller or Coors against us...that shit is the byproduct of the post-prohibition industrialization of the beer business and a clear violation of what beer is supposed to be:

I've heard that Ales is really good, from many different people. I have never seen it around here in these parts though. I will have to look for it when I go out of town. Oh yeah what about Iron City ? Anyone ever had that? I love trying new beers though so keep some suggestions comming, thanks.

Liquor my favorite is Crown Royal(I could drink a 5th by myself in a hour), Captin Morgan, SoCo.

I think I may be doing a little drinking tonight :D

Old Peculiar is a fine ale and from my home county too! If you liked that try Wobbly Bob if you ever have the good fortune to stumble across it :)

Not much of a beer drinker, though having an occasional bottle's rather nice after a hectic day, when I don't feel like getting plastered out of my mind with vodka or tequila or some such.

I did find Budweiser quite watery. Guinness was some improvement. Recently, whenever the whim strikes to buy beer I go for darker ones like Baron Trenck, Herold Bohemian Black & Grenat Lager, Synebrychoff Nikolai Dark Lager and good dependable Old Tom, or whatever interesting new ones happen to be there.

Have no idea what whiskey's like. Anything close to cognac? sherry? port?

Generally, I prefer red wine. Speaking of something smooth from Italy, ever had Lambrusco? With the lower alcohol content, you can pretty much chug it like beer. :)

that said, my libations of choice are beer and whiskey.

my beer choices are Murphy's Irish Stout, TurboDog, and Sam Adams. my whiskey (and whisky) tastes go from Bulleitt Bourbon to Glenlivet Scotch, back to any and all Irish whiskey (Michael Collins being a current fave, with Tullamore Dew being the all time Irish champ) and back again to the old standby of J&B Scotch.

While at University, in between lectures some of us invented a drink:

A Jelly SMN - our initials

First you need Baileys Irish Cream then some Raspberry cordial.

Take one mouthful of the baileys' then (without swallowing) take a mouthful of the cordial.

Swish the mixture around your mouth

The Raspberry congeals in your mouth

Swallow

Its like an alcoholic turkish delight - about a £3 a pop.

Another is a heidbanger (also known as alcohol poisoning) this is quite simple:
Get a pint glass and start at one end of the bar and work your way to the other side. About a quarter of a pint will do it - never finished a pint yet.
Very hard to get drunk by it as you tend to throw up after the brandy.
And you need a mortgage to pay for it

Some of them are quite good, some are terrible. The one I have is my favorite. Pumpkin ales are actually a classic American traditional seasonal style. They are a bit light in body and color but with a lovely, spicy flavor.

Lidls are advertising that (HobGoblin) at the moment, so it should be in the stores pretty soon.

I got me some Hobgoblins today, I do like this ale anyway and drink it despite Halloween, but it is the unofficial beer of Halloween.....

Sorry so late D, I believe New Castle is Imported here, but they might bottle it in the states even though it says Imported. It's a pretty common beer at the local liquor stores.

Tonight I'm going to get drunk as FUCK!

I have a bottle of whisky beside me and I'm heading out to barfly, where the bands are loud and the whisky is cheap!

Have fun...

Saturday night I went to a birthday party and ended up drinking from 10:45 at night until 6 in the morning. Hell of a night...
