Drunk Thread: CoG style.

[Shrinn]

I drank lots and lots. Tonight's demon of choice (as picked by my hosting friends) was vanilla vodka mixed with coke and jello shots. Apparently I get really good at playing ZSS in brawl whilst drunk. I also get really good at text flirting CAUSE I'M COOL. I also won a dollar off of my roommate in SSF4 Money Matches. He was sober. Fuck yeah Ibuki.

edit: oh and bacon and heavy metal is always a good idea. ;)

I love you and whole heartedly agree. I wish I had bacon. I'll have to settle for just Maiden.

Work Christmas party last night...woke up this morning in a strange bed with a woman I've never seen before in my life.

On the bright side, two kids didn't come bursting into the room, so it turned out better than the last time this happened. I think I'm getting better at...whatever it is I did.

[MagGnome]

Ha! That is pure gold.

I drank some awesome Belgian beers last night, got a little drunk, insulted my date, rode the buses all over town, and finally ended up back home around 1 or 2 am. I had a pretty wicked hangover when I woke up an hour ago.

[MagGnome]

Beer and legos after that s sunken night at the tiki bar. Coconauts, Virgin sacrifice, volcanoes, and flamings

Guys, this may be blasphemy...but I really prefer Johnnie Walker to any single malt scotch I've had. I can drink Black all night, but single malt just isn't doing it for me.

[Dualshotty23]

no blasphemy in that. i often find i prefer a "cheaper" drink to the high end ones.

I think it has a lot to do with what you start on. I swear by Jack Daniels because that's where I got my start.

[Dualshotty23]

ugh i drank way to much jack back in the day and cant stand it now. Jamesons is my old reliable. Scotch in particular i find gets worse as you pay more, that being said the most expensive ive ever tried was an 18 year 100 dollar bottle which isnt much to pay for scotch.

[Shrinn]

I was going to pick up a cheap scotch to try it out since Supes never stops singing its praises, but my liquor store didn't have Johnnie Walker so I had nothing to go off of! Next time

oh my word, i've wanted to try properky drinking single malts for as long as i can tremrmber. i actually hate grain whiskey but i think a good malt might bring me round

[Superman's Dead]

Do you drink it neat?

I do. I'll give it another shot again tonight, but this Glenlivet is lasting a lot longer than the empty bottle of Black.

[Superman's Dead]

It's a good drink to try if you ever go out to a bar, because a double will last you quite a while. Red is the cheapest, and is made with mixed drinks in mind. Black is the next stuff up and tastes exquisite.

I had a dream that I had to save Earth from aliens, and my only weapon was a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black. I had never had it before, and tried a glass the next day. It was destiny.

[Dualshotty23]

you know for all the hype about glenlivet i sure disliked it when i bought a bottle.

[MagGnome]

I've never drank Scotch.

[SilentScreams]

Glenlivet is disgusting. I keep getting bottles for my birthday and Christmas. I've got about seven bottles sat unopened in my liquor cabinet.
Maybe I should re-use them as gifts for others.

After many hard-learned lessons, I stick mainly to beer. Good beer. 10? beers tonight. Became an honorary kiwi, as wingman distracted the cockblock-girl to help my bud play tonsil hockey, and hit on a game-playing, comic-loving, singing, and somewhat attached young vixen.

And I can still type and play the latest crappy CSI game at the same time! SUCCESS!

It seems that no matter how much I drink I won't throw up unless I was mixing different kinds of alcohol.

Doesn't mean I won't feel it the next day, though.

[Libuke]

More drinking then I planned this weekend. Went out Friday to celebrate my first week of teaching and then went out again Saturday when my friend wanted to.

However I only spent like 100 dollars between the two nights, including tips. (I drank way more then that monetarily wise). I love knowing the bartenders, although I suppose that means I drink way more then I should.

[carnage11]

My wife and I put away an 18 pack last night as well as two Tilts. Smoked a little sweet cheeba. Was set right, she almost beat me in darts but I put her away after a tie breaker. I won't let her win, she has to earn that shit!

[Badger]

Oh my word. First Thursday night out in a while... (two weeks). I'm not the beer swigging vandal I was in 2010, this can't go on. Ugh, I feel so old :(

I'm buzzed right now from a mix of expensive champagne and cheap cider, and flirting with a very pretty girl I know from work. The alcohol is making me a bit more forward than my usual shy self, but I think it's actually working.

[Sandman]

NYE I got wasted enough to last a few months I think. I downed a whole assorted Sweetwater six pack before heading out, along with two good captain and cokes. Then at the bar I had six jack and cokes before getting cut off and heading to the other floor's bar for 3 tall PBR. Oh and I had some Harp at the Irish Pub with lunch before all that...so I guess 10 beer and 8 mixed drinks. It was a good day and I didn't even have a hangover the next morning. Hmmm I've got some left over rum sitting here.

[Shrinn]

Working a moiuse pad is hard. I hate drinking vodka straight but vanilla vodka and coke is pretty good. Uhm. I thought posting in here would be more fun but that's really all I had to say. Oh! I had to deal with 3 hours of some guest speaker at my university for my job there. He told us all about how he was better than us because his life was hard and he was latino and he was VERY racist in the pro-black pro-latino sense. It pissed me off something fierce.

I spent the evening playing boardgames with a total group of strangers and drinking wine. They loved me so much that I've been invited to join them again. It turns out that pretty much the entire group is bisexual and polyamorous, so I'll definitely be joining up as a regular. :D

Went to Cest what? for some hand pumped cask beer, followed by the beirmarket for two new drafts, including a tripel bock from the netherlands with a 10% abv, follwed by the Leafs / Flames game with another half dozen domestic drafts ( and an awesome shootout! ), followed by a trip to smoke less Joes, thus completing the pilgrimage to each beer mecca in Toronto. Then a few ryes at Wayne Gretzky s, a few more Ryes at Fionna McCools then bed time.

I had some Four Loko last night because.. well it got banned so I needed to try it.

Worst. Idea. Ever.

It was the most foul tasting thing ever. It was like someone took the flavor "Nyqui"l and tried to weaponize it. I took two small sips and couldn't drink anymore. A few hours later I started feeling like shit and I'm still feeling it the next morning.

[MagGnome]

Four Loko just looks terrible. They should have kept the original on the market to weed out the stupid people.

[Shrinn]

Weaponized Nyquil. It took me 3-4 hours and a conversation with a cutie to feel not shitty again.

Nyqil isn't the same since they took the meth out.

[carnage11]

Robotussin DM mother fuckers. Get it right. Nyquil is for namby pambys.

Also, with Four Loko it's hit and miss. Some of the flavors taste all right and others are closer to vomit. I prefer the Orange, Lemon Lime, and Lemonade flavors. I found out the other night that mixing a Strawberry Kiwi Joose with a Lemonade Four Loko is pretty nice. I've been kind of addicted to the Tilts lately. The red Tilt and the purple Tilt are pretty good.


Also, I'd like to mention, that Four Loko is not banned. They were just forced to reformulate. If you have the right connections, you can still get the Four Lokos with caffeine too. ;) There's a little shop owned by some Indians down the street from where I live that sell the old stuff. You gotta make 'em remember you. "OH BLACK ASS, why didn't you moon us before aye?"

Did some drinking this weekend, got to the stage where I was willing to dance even (not supper drunk but still drunk). It helps when a good looking chick asked me to however. So danced with her on off for most of the night. Overall a pretty fun night out at the bar.

I wish I was a better dancer (I don't think I am good at it so don't like to do it). The girls always tell me that I am doing at least alright (some have said I have done a good job) but I think they are just being nice. Two stepping is not to hard though, so you think it would be easy to pick it up. I think I get too tense (worrying about being bad) and so that fucks up my dancing. We were dipping and twirling pretty good by the end of the night though (I think).

[carnage11]

They nerfed Robo back in the early 90's actually. Took all the hallucinogens out.

I don't think so. It's been probably 12 years or so since I last drank a whole bottle of the purple sizz-urp. But all it needs to have is Dextromethorphan, which Robotussin DM still contains.

I know you can get straight pill form of DXM over in Europe. I always wanted to try that stuff.

[Bone]

They reduced the amount of that active ingredient considerably, is what I'm saying. I didn't mean to go on a yellow-submarine type trip, I was just trying to quickly address a sore throat when I was 15, and ended up on a 4-hour journey of sights and sounds. The auditory hallucinations started out fun and escalated to terrifying pretty quickly. Now I understand you can drink more and achieve the same effect, but probably not accidentally anymore.

[MagGnome]

You guys are weird. :p

[Bone]

I'm weirder for having experienced a Robitussin trip, for sure. Opened the doors of perception, man! Actually I got punched in the stomach for laughing in the face of a meat-head who was asking what the fuck was wrong with me. And I kept laughing as he walked away, confused. I somehow made it to Geometry class and tried not to notice that all the voices in the room sounded like they were an inch to the right of my head.

Ever since that day I have carefully measured my cough syrup intake with a spoon.

[MagGnome]

I haven't had cough syrup since I was a young kid. It's nasty stuff.

[carnage11]

I have, on many occasions as a teenager, ingested 2 4-ounce bottles of Robotussin DM. Embarking on journeys to strange lands where, if you listen close enough, you can hear the plant's thoughts.

I shouldn't have left that bottle of vodka at my friends house.

[Bone]

I drank imperial stout, milk stout, coffee stoout, vanilla stout, a couple tripels, and a Lone Star. I consider a success. Tripels suck, too fruity.

I much prefer rum and sprite or rum and orange soda. Tastes like cream soda or a creamsicle respectively.

Some of my best relationship talk happens when I'm drunk! That's when I do all my best shameless flirting with girls who might be interested in me but are doing a good job hiding it, too.

[Bone]

Depends on the rum, too. I love Sailor Jerry and Dr. Pepper or Sailor Jerry and lemonade!

[carnage11]

Cruzan makes some good Rum too. The black cherry and the vanilla go really well with Coke.


Monday I went out and bought a Sam Adams Holiday Collection variety pack. I've been trying them over the past few days. The White Ale is definitely my least favorite. The Old Fezziwig Ale I tried last night and it's excellent. My favorite is a split between the Chocolate Bock and the Holiday Porter. They are pretty good for a Mega brewery. This past weekend I bought, against my better judgment, a Shipyard variety pack. I'd rate the whole 12-pack a solid C-. I'll probably never buy them again, though I did really enjoy the Pumpkin Ale that was in there. It tasted like a piece of pumpkin pie! I also bought a pint of Young's Double Chocolate Stout and thought that was pretty tasty.

I finally found an ABC liquor in my area that sells a pretty good variety of micro brew stuff, so I'm gonna be going bonkers trying lots of new stuff.

My problem with most Sam Adams beers is the ridiculous amount of hops they use. They are so proud of that fact, they even put it in their commercials. To paraphrase: "Yo dawg, we heard you like hops, so we put hops in your hops so you could taste hops for the rest of your fucking life! HOPS!"

[roboninja]

Darker rums are good (spices help). White rums are nasty unless accompanied by a fruity flavour.

Cracked it, sniffed it. Smelled a little skunked. Checked the bottle. "Best if enjoyed by 11/10/10. :mad:

How old is this beer if it expired nearly 3 months ago? A beers shelf life is like 4 months or so right? Damn, I was pissed. It tasted straight nasty as fuck. I choked the entire pint down regardless. I'm not one to waste money. :p

Fuckin A. This week is rocking. I have a beautiful new girlfriend and I got invited out to drink with some coworkers. What the fuck else do you need, man?

Yeah, it was pretty darn malty. Not a bad beer overall, but it didn't live up to its hype (and hipster-bar price).

That Sam Adams might be worth trying though.

Last night I drank a bottle of Boulevard's Harvest Dance, a wheat wine-style ale. It was fantastic. I got pretty tipsy and watched Groundhog Day.

Around 11pm some friends texted me and told me to meet them at Jetset, this trendy/awful gay bar in downtown Minneapolis. I hopped on the bus and went down there. I've only been there once before (three years ago), and for good reason. It's tiny, always packed, full of pretentious twits, and the music is so loud that you have to shout to be heard.

I only had one drink. A 12oz bottle of Kriek Lambic. $9. -_-

[carnage11]

Haha, I watched Groundhog Day yesterday as well. All this talk of the movie, made me want to watch it again.

My wife and I went to the Orlando Improv last night with some friends. Bert Kreischer was the headliner, from Bert the Conqueror on Travel Channel. He was pretty funny, it was interesting, because he started doing his routine, but about 2 minutes in, he got to talking with some black people in the front row and the entire rest of the show was improvised. Was a good show, and I had a good time.

On topic with this thread, I ordered a Purple Haze raspberry wheat beer. It was a little sweet for my liking. I then decided to get a Guinness to balance it out. On the menu they had what was called a Back Porch Brew. None of us knew what that meant, but it turns out it was PBR. Still not sure why they called it Back Porch Brew.

[MagGnome]

I've seen Purple Haze in the store several times, but I've never tried it.

[carnage11]

I've seen Purple Haze in the store several times, but I've never tried it.

Do you like wheat beer? Do you like a touch of raspberry? Do you like your beer sweet?

If you said yes to any of those questions, give it a try. It's not bad, it's just not my thing. I would say no to all those questions.

[MagGnome]

I do like wheat beer, and I sometimes like beers that are a little sweet. I have a pretty wide palette when it comes to beer. I'll pick some up sometime and give it a try.

According to my wife it was the drunkest she'd ever seen me, and maybe anyone. Apparently on our walk home from the bar I promised to:

Protect her from muggers.
Not be able to protect her from vampires, but if they did get her I asked if she would wait before making me one until I lost a little more weight.
Kick the shit out of the sun if it came up too soon.
Try not to cry if someone hit me.
Clear the street of any robots that might be pretending to be humans.
Stop a car with my knees if it was going to hit her. (wtf)
Other, assorted rambling nonsense.

She also said I asked for a bowl (but not our nice bowl) and I emphatically told her I didn't need an alarm clock because my internal one had never failed me.

[Bone]

I had a gloriously worded drunk post the other night, I actually made it through a great story, and the forum ate my post with an "expired token" message or some shit.

If I retell it, it will end up in the Dating Advice thread. It has nothing to do with the girl I'm dating, and instead with an encounter I had with a girl who, I think, tried and failed miserably to "neg" me at a bar. Girls are nuts, that's why I drink.

Anybody had Genesee beer?

http://www.esquire.com/cm/esquire/images/10-Genesee-Cream-Ale-062510-lg.jpg

I found this 22oz. can of Genesee Cream Ale at the local quik mart for .99 cents. That's right....I said .99 cents. Let's just say I didn't expect much for the price, as a matter of fact I figured I'd probably taste it and throw it down the drain.

However, I was very, pleasantly surprised. This is not a bad beer at all! How do they get away with selling it so fucking cheap?! Taste wise, I'd put it up there with Coors Regular. Not great, but not bad either, pretty damn drinkable. They even have an Ice version that's 5.5% APV for the same price.

If you don't have but a buck in your pocket and you want to drink a beer I highly suggest you look for this stuff. You won't be let down, I assure you!

[roboninja]

Drinking fun new beers tonight. A Betelgeuse from Mill St. Brewery. Sweet as hell, and somehow 8.5% abv. Tastes like a sweet light beer.

Also had a Lemon Ice Tea beer from the same brewer (bought a sampler pack). It was a wheat beer, so the sweetness matched. Plenty more scheduled for tonight, bought 10 assorted beers.

[Reverant]

I saw a post from a couple weeks ago where someone mentioned Young's.

Oh my sweet Lord.

I can't buy those Young's Double Chocolate Stout 4-packs without DRINKING EVERY SINGLE ONE IN HALF AN HOUR. So damn good.

Also, we have a brewery here in NC called Duckrabbit. Their milk stout is to die for. Best stout ever? Nah. That title belongs to Rogue's Shakespeare Stout.

Tonight: My wife bought me some Whiskey Stones and a bottle of Maker's Mark for V Day, so I'll be sipping that well into the evening.

[Shieldmaiden]

Went to 'Spoons last night and they had a couple of Brewdog beers on tap, including Hardcore IPA. 9% ABV and they would only sell halves. At £1.15 a pop, I think it has got to be the most cost-effective thing I've drunk in a pub. Tasted pretty good too.

Super irony time: turns out I had 12 different beers, and I did not get to two. One of these was Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

[Superman's Dead]

Holy shit.

Whiskey stones.

That is the best thing I have ever heard of in my entire adult life.

In turn, I will pass on my own arcane knowledge:

Hennessy and sweet iced tea. Don't even think about it. Just do it. It is splendorous.

[MagGnome]

Young's Double Chocolate Stout is like heaven on your tongue.

I also really like Ommegang's Chocolate Indulgence, although it's only available in the winter. I have a bottle of it in my fridge right now. :D

The Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery (a local brewpub) just came out with a special Nut Brown Ale with coconut, dark chocolate, and cocoa nibs. I have a growler of it in my fridge!

[Matthias]

You know, it's odd. i couldn't actually taste any remotely chocolate notes in Young's. Maybe it's just that I've only been drinking beer for a few months, and not at all regularly at that...

[carnage11]

That is odd. As it tasted like a chocolate malted milk shake to me.

[MagGnome]

This is a good night.

I hiked through the blizzard to visit the Herkimer for a veggie burger, sweet potato fries, and their Dunkel beer. I then hiked/bunny hopped hope, laughing all the way. When I got home I opened a growler of Town Hall Brewery's new limited release nut brown ale with flavors of coconut, dark chocolate, and cocoa nibs. It tastes like German chocolate cake. It's pretty much pure sex.

Then there is this, which I am watching over and over and singing along to:

Ugh. Some friends had the Mrs and I over for dinner and we both got pretty toasted on mezcal, tequila and wine; so much so that we had to stay over at their place. So this morning at 5:00 I had to get up and do the Walk of Shame to the bus stop and take a half hour bus ride home. Now my motherfucking cat is giving me a hard time for staying out all night, I've got a pretty severe hangover and I need to prep for the bike ride back to where I just came from to get to work.

Shit.

HI!

I got drunk tonight on a 40 of Mickey's and a half bottle of "Chupacabra" wine, from Maynard James Keenan's vineyard... don't remember the name.

Ah, Mickey's. It was my crew's Drink of Choice for many years.

We had a saying though: "Don't piss off the hornet."

That combination of yours? A good reason for the hornet to be pissed. I would not be surprised if your morning was a little hurty.

Mickey's! I forgot my 17th birthday because of those widemouths. Piss beer, but I drink Lone Star when I'm drinking on the cheap so I can't say much.

[Serapth]

I'm trying to give my liver and waistline a break, so I have pretty much stopped drinking. As a direct resulted, as well as doing 6-7miles per day on a bike, plus about 1-2 miles a day of walking, I am down about 6 lbs and its only been a week.

So, obviously it works!

That said, I drink a lot of beer for a reason, and its not just alcohols lovely goodness! I like beer, and don't really like pop, milk or sugars. This basically leaves me beer and water to drink as beverages, and after my 2 or 3 litres of water a day, it gets pretty old.

So i've been trying a plethora of non-alcoholic / de-alcoholized beers, and fuck are they all terrible. In the past I tried Molson and Labatts versions, but frankly... both are pretty shitty beers BEFORE you remove the alcohol. After, it tastes kinda like gingerale with piss and iron filings poured in. Becks I just purchased and frankly its just about as bad ( and damned near the same price as a full 6 pack! ). I also tried O'douls and its about the closest to real beer as I've found yet, but still not great. PC also makes a beer ( brewed by Labatt :( ), but at least the amber lager isn't horrible.


Has anyone out there ever found a decent non-alcohol beer?

[MagGnome]

If your goal is to lose weight, why are you drinking non-alcoholic beer? It's not like the alcohol is what makes you fat. It's the carbs and calories. I don't see how non-alcoholic beer would be better for your waistline than the real thing.

Just drink regular beer in moderation. Trying to switch to non-alcoholic sounds like a bad idea to me.

[Bone]

Switch to vodka.

Actually, its signifigantly lower. The last beer I had (Becks) is 60 calories per bottle. Thats 40-50% less than most beers. Also, my liver thanks me.

[Serapth]

Switch to vodka.

Everybody that drinks has that one liquor they did something really really really stupid with, and the mere smell of it causes a gag reflex. For many people, its tequila, quite often its dark rum. For me, its Vodka.

17 years have passed since that fateful night, and still the thought of drinking vodka turns my stomach.

That said, nothing a few tequila shots can't take care of!


Actually, I'm a rye guy. With my addictive personality though, the idea of regularly drinking heavy liquors isn't really one I embrace. I like my beer, a lot, but I can go weeks at a time without one. But liquor, too many people I know that have "a nightcap", show signs of physical addiction. After the shit I went through kicking cigarettes, no fucking thank you to the idea of another addiction. Well, except my crack, but that doesn't count.

[SilentScreams]

Tequila is the one I can't stomach.
I have a scar on my chin as a permanent reminder not to touch the stuff again.

Jager is the devil's brew. Got a scar on my head from a night of too much Jager.

See, normally I agree. It just feels wrong on my tongue. I can't stand it by itself.

BUUUUUUUUUUUT, a rather cute redhead bought me a jager bomb Tuesday night while we were celebrating Fat Tuesday. Red Bull normally knocks me out in 20 minutes, working completely opposite than intended on me. Oddly enough, combine the two together and you get a tasty concoction. Though, my memory of the evening ends once I paid my tab...

Jagrbombs are brutal. They taste wickedly good, and keep you going. They are super dangerous though, as you wake up the day after still drunk but thinking you are completely sober.

I went out after a hockey tournament, with a group 10 years younger than me, and it was round after round of jagrbombs. Night went till about 3 am, then I went and crashed, woke up around 8am and drove home, felt completely and utterly sober. Quick math on the number of drinks / amount of time elapsed and I would have broken a breathalizer.

Will say though, about 7pm the day after my body simply collapsed and I was in zombie sleep mode for 11 hours.

[Serapth]

8 jagr bombs, easily another 10 'normal' drinks, and a order of poutine. I sure shit kicked my body that day, probably lost a couple years...

Your liver metabolizes alcohol to sugar- straight ethanol has 7cal/g, while sugar and other carbs have 4 cal/g and fat has 9cal/g. Non-alcoholic/virgin versions of drinks save you quite a bit of calories once it all adds up. It also benefits from the probability that you'll drink fewer, since you're no longer drinking to get a buzz.

[civil]

When I was on Atkins for six years or so, pretty much any hard liquor was "free" in terms of carbs so I drank like a motherfucker. It was insane, losing all this weight and still being able to drink a ton of whiskey, vodka, gin, etc. Those were the days of getting drunk before 10 AM.

So Canadian if you're trying to lose weight and still be able to drink up, go Atkins. Granted, I'm pretty sure I've done some unpleasant things to my liver.

My mom pretty much lives Atkins these days, with some minor exceptions. Before she was pretty seriously in to it and lost about 20 lbs over all. I can attest to the results. My wife did South Beach a while back and lost weight right away, and I believe SB is pretty much Atkins in disguise.

My, being a carnivore, I pretty much live the atkins diet anyways. I just couldn't give up bread... I don't eat a ton of it, but a hamburger isn't a fucking hamburger without a bun!

Besides, I don't really need to change my diet. I drank easily a case of beer a week. Thats about 3000 calories a week. Taking 3k calories out of your diet and exercising should be more than enough.

Got me a bottle of Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout tonight. Cookin' up some chicken wings, waiting for it to chill. It sounds wonderful. I've never had a coffee stout before, and it got a pretty good rating at Ba.

'Bout to crack this bad boy. Anyone tried it? Am I in for a treat?


http://www.drunkenpolack.com/images/capstout.jpg


edit: before anyone says anything, I know this beer is meant to be enjoy at room temp, but I hate warm beer. I don't care I want it ice cold! :p

[MagGnome]

I love Lagunitas! They make some fantastic brews. I got to visit their brewery in Petaluma, California a couple weeks ago, and it was great!

I haven't had the Cappuccino Stout, but I'll keep an eye out for it. I'm not a coffee drinker, but coffee stouts and porters are usually pretty good.

[carnage11]

So after chilling this bad boy in the fridge until it was sufficiently chilled, I cracked it and poured a glass. Surprisingly, it's quite hoppy for a coffee stout. Nice chocolaty/cappuccino flavor to it.


At 8.8% ABV......needless to say I'm a tad bit tipsy! :D

@Mags: Even though you don't dig coffee, you might like this. It's got a nice chocolate flavor to it. Not over powering at all. It's interesting, with the hoppiness though. Like an undertone of bitterness that has some bite. Pretty good brew all in all.

It's not just cost, when you're out drinking in Texas it behooves you to keep it light and honestly a little watered down. A single Guinness on a hot Texas night might put you into hibernation- after you get rid of the sweats.

While Gold is good, Blue is the nectar of the gods. Aged even longer, smaller batches, and a fantastic woodsy flavor make it downright amazing. It's just too bad that no bars really stock the stuff, and if they do it's downright expensive. It was $9 per shot at Weber's, but I finished off that bottle before New Years and they still haven't gotten another. :(

Bud Light. Not because it tastes good, but you'll fit in better.

In seriousness, if you find yourself up near Orlando you should stop by the Orlando Brewing. They've got quite a selection (I suggest the Blonde Ale on a hot sunny day like today), and it's brewed here and is all organic.

This is a really good beer. It's not to heavy, and really drinkable. A small touch of sweet wheat I think, which I normally don't like, but this is subtle. I'm on my third and have a really nice buzz.

I would go ahead and strongly recommend this beer to anyone that likes beer. If you see it, grab it and try it. You won't regret it. If you've already had it, well.....you know what I'm talking about.;)

Never again will I drink beer, tequila, and rum in one night, let alone on an empty stomach.

I can't remember the last time I was this hungover.

[SilentScreams]

Tequila is death in a bottle. I have a noticeable scar on my chin from the last time I drank the stuff. Never again.

[MagGnome]

I drank a lot of it too. My friend made me a mixed drink (tequila and cranberry juice). He wanted to finish off the bottle, so I got way more than I needed. He promised to never let me drink tequila ever again.

Now excuse me while I go lie down.

There should be a warning label on tequila, may induce extreme drunken behavior as well as severe hangovers. I had my first tequila drink at 17 and gave it up after turning 21. I wonder how I am still alive from that period of drinking. Actually I wonder how I still have a liver...

[MagGnome]

Ugh, it's been hours and my stomach is still upset. I've barely been able to eat anything all day, which is making me feel weak.

[Troggles]

Is your birthday the 29th or the 30th? Either way, Happy Birthday! Mine is today. :)

Maybe next year we can celebrate our birthdays today in San Francisco!

[Purple Santa]

Not a more appropriate thread to wish you a happy birthday Mags :D

[carnage11]

Hey, happy birthday to the both of you!

[MagGnome]

Thanks Carnage!

Not a more appropriate thread to wish you a happy birthday Mags :D

Um...thanks? :p

[SilentScreams]

Happy birthday guys. Don't do anything I wouldn't.

[MagGnome]

Does that leave much? ;)

[Purple Santa]

Does that leave much? ;)

At this rate is there anything left for you to do? No, please don't answer that...the answer would be more frightening than just not ever really knowing...

[Xerxes]

White Gold Vodka: Very smooth, hint of citrus taste. Perfect alone, on rocks, and mixed. Distilled 10 times. Interest in Black Gold rising.

Hadn't had a drink all year and twice this week I've made me a little glass of something.

[Superman's Dead]

Happy birthday you guys. I celebrated for you by drinking several double gin and tonics and going home with a friend of a friend.

[SilentScreams]

Drank way too much today. It's amazing how a couple of hours in town to watch the football turns into an all day drinking and gaming session. If I didn't have to be at work tomorrow I'd still be out now.

As it is, I'm being responsible and going to bed before I get to the falling over stage of drunkenness which would see me call in sick tomorrow. Currently sat at home with an apple, pear and red grape smoothie. In my mind, this will help balance out all the alcohol.

Or at least, make your puke very colourful.

While the B vitamins that that smoothie will offer are good for anti-hangover. The best thing you can do is chug a few glasses of water before you pass out. Lots of water is (from my experience) the best anti-hangover medicine.

[TheSilentDeath]

While I didn't drink enough to get shit faced I did drink enough to get tipsy while singing karaoke. I'll also remmeber that tonight was the night that bin laden died and I was drinking and singing so there is always that.

[evilgoodwin]

Hello, drunk thread.

Serious question. Why is it weired to be nude except for a form-fitting t-shirt? I will never understand this. I feel like a perv.

Shirt off? No problem. Completely A-OK. Shirt on? Freeeeeeaaak....

Pics or it didn't happen.

Spoilered pics, if you please.

We're not all like Mags. :)

Classy and sophisticated? :cool:

[SilentScreams]

Urghhhhh...I am so unbelievably hungover right now. Fuck whoever kept on shoving Jagerbombs in my hand last night.

I also have a black eye and my right arm is scratched to hell. I either got mauled by a tiger, or I lost a fight with a rose bush. Jury still out on that one.

[evilgoodwin]

Sounds rough. Here.

*hands SilentScreams a drink*

Drink this. You'll feel much better.

o_o

[evilgoodwin]

I'm at an all night diner (Magnolia's for those that know) about to eat two over easy eggs and a steak. this is how I drunk.

[Bone]

Nice! I love me some Magnolia's but Kerbey Lane is my preferred drunk'n eggs establishment.

I was too hammered to post last night myself. We played our show that was promoted by the Austin Chronicle, filled a place with 500 people and funked their asses off. And with the cold front coming in, it was only about 99 degrees :eek:

[evilgoodwin]

Yes, it WAS pleasantly cool last night at 99 degrees.

I also prefer Kerbey, but I had a hankering for a queso omelette and pancakes. Two things I ended up not ordering.

[Shrinn]

I think I've developed some sort of aversion to alcohol. A small amount has me feeling terrible. It happened the last 2 times. I miss beer :(

[Bone]

You might be getting allergic. Some people are just allergic to gluten- try to find a gluten-free beer and see what happens!

Then, try a shot of a more pure alcohol... say, vodka or tequila or scotch. As allergy experiments go, things could be worse :)

[Shrinn]

Yeah. I'm trying again tonight with a little JD seeing as it's all I have on hand. I ate stomach-safe food, I'm drinking water, and will commence drinking shortly. For science.

[Serapth]

I am finding every day after I drink, its like I am hit with a really bad case of allergies. I wake up plugged up and congested. It's something I live with, but it's really making me not like drinking near as much. Wonder if its a histamine reaction....

[MagGnome]

You poor sods. :p

[Shrinn]

I only had a couple sips but I still woke up with my stomach feeling gross. More experimentation is required.

[resikel]

89 days sober. That streak will be over tonight.

[Bone]

This does not bode well. I think you're definitely going to have to switch to meth.

[Serapth]

I didn't drink last week, went out last night and got over charged by a drink, so I got payback today... so having a few drinks tonight. Back to healthy again after tonight... boring but satisfying, especially when trying to exercise the pudgy from my face.

[MagGnome]

This does not bode well. I think you're definitely going to have to switch to meth.

It sounds like that's his next option. What harm could come from that?

[carnage11]

None, as long as you don't really want your teeth anymore and you don't mind acne scars.

[carnage11]

Bought a six pack or Terrapin Hopsecutioner tonight. Drank one, working on my second.

http://thefullpint.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/terrapin-hopsecutioner.jpg

It got a B+ over at BeerAdvocate. Any IPA fans here try this stuff?

Wow, this is a hoppy bitch! I see where the name comes from. I'm not a big fan of hoppy IPAs, so this isn't on my list of favorite brews. It's very bitter and acidic. 7.3% apv. Gotta nice buzz already. :D

[MagGnome]

I love IPAs, but I haven't had that one. Bring on the hops!

I had Flat Earth's (local brewery) IPA tonight, as well as some Finnegan's Irish Amber, another local brewery that is 100% non-profit. It's nice having a pleasant buzz right before bed. I sat on the porch with one of the guys who lives downstairs and enjoyed some beers on this beautiful night. He's moving in two weeks to work at Rogue in Portland. What a lucky guy!!

[Rogue_hunter]

Not particularly drunk and barely buzzed, but I was "banned" (pending actual management's involvement) from my local bar. Manager of the night went on a power trip, shoved the promoter/weekly Friday show planner and then threatened me. Myself and the promoter kept talking in the parking lot afterwards and the MOD came outside and banned me.

So, yeah, don't think I'll be having all that much alcohol in the near future.

I wouldn't want to be giving money to that asshole anyhow.

[Superman's Dead]

Last night I had way too many tequilas way too fast. It'd been a long time since I had some and I just started taking one shot after another. Which didn't feel bad at the time, but riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight before bed it felt like my world was falling apart.

I'm sticking to a few small bourbon drinks for a little while now.

[SilentScreams]

Well, the scratches on my arm are healing nicely, except one which is probably going to leave a scar. This black eye refuses to go away though. The purple bruising is staying the same, and the yellow tint is actually spreading!

The main reason I want it gone is so that people stop asking how it happened. Nobody believes me that I have absolutely no idea. Apparently getting a black eye and shredding your arm is something most people would remember. :D
