Stroggy 23-04-2005 08:33 AM

Well I'm going to be honest: I like vodka.
Every sunday we eat fish at noon and it isn't complete until my dad pulls out the bottle of Wyborowa Vodka.

Puffin 23-04-2005 09:08 AM

I like vodka, but I hate mixing it with anything else. And I usually have to have a couple of beers to be able to drink the vodka :crazy:
My favourite beer is Carlsberg and Grolsch. Guinness is good if I'm in the right mood.

Captain Morgan is good! I have a bottle of it waiting to be opened tonight... :whistle:

Reup 23-04-2005 09:09 AM

Black Russian is my favorite drink! But it's much to expensive to drink on a regular basis... and I have a very limited stock of Vodka and Kahlua at home... So my second favorite would be Port, preferable LBV's and Vitages! :ok:

But in reality it boils down to the fact that I pretty much drink everything that contains alcohol :P





Puffin 23-04-2005 09:17 AM

I forgot to mention gin and tonic. I've only tried it once, recently. I really like it!!! :)

The only alcoholic drink i've tried and didn't like was Tuborg beer. Eeeeeeeew :eeeeeh:

Flop 23-04-2005 09:26 AM

You like carlsberg, but not tuborg? They're pretty similar in my opinion. I'm mostly a beer guy myself, but if I have to name a drink that I like, I'd go with white russian.

I'm also going to have to agree with all the people who like vodka. I really like ice cold stolichnaya.

I have to disagree :bleh:
Tuborg is more.. flat.. than Carlsberg.
Seriously, one sip of Tuborg and I feel queasy. Disgusting, in my opinion. Carslberg on the other hand... :)

Allen 23-04-2005 10:04 AM

My favorite, sorry Reup, is a White Russian.
Milk + Vodka + Kahlua = :w00t:

Hard to find Kahlua here in the UK, so I make my own.

Flop 23-04-2005 10:07 AM

Well, maybe you get some different stuff on Iceland or sonething, because the general concensus around here is that they're very similar. But I have to agree with you on grolsch, it's definitely a very good beer (and the bottles are just so cool :)).

And if tuborg is the only alcoholic drink that you didn't like, I'm guessing you never tried stroh rum. That has to be the nastiest stuff I've ever tasted, and it has an alcohol percentage of 80.

Hehe true, i've never tasted that ;)
I usually just buy the same stuff... Haven't been much in the vodka lately, though. Had a nasty experience with it :blink:

Flop 23-04-2005 10:14 AM

Isn't alcohol obscenely expensive in Iceland? I remember going there on a class trip in the 9th grade, and my alcoholic teacher was ecstatic when he found a carlsberg elephant beer for 55 kroner (7-8 USD). :D

EDIT: spelling.

Stroggy 23-04-2005 10:14 AM

My favourite beers are Duvel and De Koninck

efthimios 23-04-2005 10:31 AM

Drambuie, with ice or straight. The only problem is that it is too expensive for my wallet now. So, when I drink (rarely) I prefer either a Miller, or Foster's. In the rare occasion I can find a good one I also like very much red wine.

A sixpack of carslberg costs 1100 icelandik krones = 13€.
If you buy a drink at a bar, the glass of beer costs 6,3 - 7,3€.
Pack of cigs costs 6,2€.

Duvel is indeed a very, very, very good beer! :cheers: On occasion I indulge myself by drinking large quantities of several Belgian beers... they always taste great, but tend to give nast hangovers (this might have more to do with the quantities consumed then with the quality of the beers... however, I always blame the yeest) :P

@Talon: Raki is also very nice :) or çok güzel as the Turks would say!

@self: Damn I look like an alcoholic... oh well.

Mmmmmm Woodstocks, can't get much better.

For beer I haven't tried very many but so far my favourite would be James Boag.

Iron_Scarecrow 23-04-2005 11:24 AM

Toohey's new is probably the worst beer I've ever tasted, my brother buy it all the time though cause its the cheapest. Sometimes it nearly makes me sick.

irrelevantjet 23-04-2005 11:38 AM

Tooheys New is horrible yes..... its like... watered down urine...

but Tooheys Old and Tooheys Extra Dry are fantastic :angel:

efthimios 23-04-2005 11:47 AM

Ouzo is not the greek version of Raki. They are a bit similar but different in taste drinks. Raki is apart from a turkish drink also a greek drink (though don't know and don't care who made it first) that you can find in greece.

omg 23-04-2005 12:17 PM

i return after sleep with a very minamall hangover to find.... vodka in the lead, hooray, people of taste an distinction. an this raki thing, is it the same as rakir a bulgarian spirit that those crazy bulgars distill up 2 90 percent sometimes? and im willing to bet they belive they came up with first...

beer wise im a grolsch man :tomato:

thats more expensive than some london bars!!!!!! amazing! i feel for all you icelandic alchaholics, come to england, if you head up north 1 pound a pint nights are a common occcurance even where i live the max price for a pint is like 2 pound 90 (dats a club price 2, i know bars where i can get a pint o stella artois for 1 .80) we should start a new charity, alchahol relief for iceland!! (your cigs are a little cheaper tho, lucky gits u can get cancer for less)

Havell 23-04-2005 01:10 PM

I have to say that I'm not too fond of wine or beer. I don't drink that much but but favourite drinks are Tia Maria, Calvados and Benedictine (expensive tastes? me?).

omg 23-04-2005 01:12 PM

benadictine!!! OMG it tastes like medicine tho!

Havell 23-04-2005 01:15 PM

It's good stuff (I always rather liked the taste of medicine, btw :whistle:) we always pick up a bottle or two whenever we go to France.

TheSmyth 23-04-2005 01:31 PM

Jack Daniels for me. First time i drank it it tasted like nothing but a bunch of chemicals. It was like drinking battery acid. :sick:
Still finished the bottle though. And now it's my preffered choice. :cheers:

yup you dooo have expensive tastes, ever tried talisker? even tho its a scotch i thoroughly reccomend it to one with expensive tastes, they distill it on the isle of skye using the water from the peat bog there, gives it a very distinguished flavour, mmmmmm about 50 quid a bottle tho ....

Quintopotere 23-04-2005 03:30 PM

My favourite alcoholic is the rhum from Martinica... so pure and so strong!

I like also the Malib?, someone knows it? Is a sweet coconut liqueur, sometimes used to prepare the pina-colada...

i drank a bottle o malibu neat once an it made me chuck, i cant even smell the stuff now.... i stick to mah voddy, gin, n beer remeber folks gin is a mans drink, it makes ya mean!

Stroggy 23-04-2005 03:56 PM

There is still a bottle of vodka from during the soviet era (has a hammer and sickle on it, too) its from the early 80s I think... I wonder if its still drinkable.

Havell 23-04-2005 05:10 PM

5!! wow, i dint know that, so u can drink at 5 an maybe do yourself premeture liver damage, but u cant smoke untill you are 16?? amazing, another thing about british law that has always confused me....and mister r havell u seem to be the expert on this so please ponder it with your brain so knowledgeable on the british
legal system, how come we can have sex at 16 but we arnt allowed to watch it on vidio,(well dvd these days) untill we are 18? seems a little odd to me..

I've realized that before and it really confused me, I don't have a clue why that's the law because it seems pretty stupid. Maybe because they didn't want to create a new 16 rating for films so they just classified porn as 18 rated.

Also, the being able to drink at 5 law has caused problems, with stupid parents who give their toddlers a bottle of whiskey and then wonder why it dies of alcohol poisoning :tai:

omg 23-04-2005 05:24 PM

you are probably right, but i just thought o something my mum said when i asked her years ago, she said "yes darling you can have sex at 16 but your hardly likely to have a mass orgy full of triple penetration an giant black mambas"

i ran away blushing!

I don't know, but I may now legally have sex with other guys... not that I'd do that.

anyway, back on topic.

Another drink i've always enjoyed is Tia Maria. I first drank it in a small shop on Tenerife, near the Drago Millenario (famous tree in Tenerife)

BeefontheBone 23-04-2005 09:23 PM

I think o m g hit the nail on the head there (no pun intended) - there's a big difference between the 'sex' prtrayed in porn and the sex actual people have with each other in real life. besides, mainstream films which feature sexual content rarely have an 18 rating simply because of that - most are a 15 cert, and some 12s have sexual content - Titanic, for instance, is a 12 certificate IIRC.

I'm a red wine drinker myself, and occasional g & t's. I also like real ales, particularly a nice Belgian trappist bottle-conditioned beer. yum.

Stroggy 23-04-2005 09:28 PM

I'm very picky when it comes to wines. I usually prefer red wines, but I think a lot of them taste too much like cork

Here's another favourite of mine. It's called the "Monkey Grog". Mix it like this:

1 cl white rum
2 cl brown rum
1 cl terpentine
1 cl kerosine
2 cl propylene glycole
1 cl battery acid
1 cl red paint

Mix up, stirr and shake well. Then drink quickly, before the mug vanishes.

NOTE:
don't try this at home. the mixture may be quite explosive... else send some photos when drinking this very special grog :tease:

I'nteresting that I'mtyping this up in a state of inebriation. For beer, which I detest, I'd have to say Lucky Lager, because of it's obscene cheapness. I'll drink anything straight, as long as it meets my requirements of being at, or over, 40%.

In Croatia, you're allowed to buy alcohol when you are 18, but I buy it anytime, because no one asks how old you are when you're buying alcohol.

Jim6 24-04-2005 01:17 PM

Cap'n Morgan's Spiced Rum and Sanguinello (Blood Orange Juice). Oh yes.




Aside from that, most Weissbier is far nicer than lagers, and I also enjoy a good Dunkel. Those Germans know their beer!

That said, I'm also partial to a Guinness!

Begorrah!

Sebatianos 24-04-2005 01:29 PM

Well my favourite drink is Ice Tea - peach flavour (but to disapoint you all it's non-alchoholic). It does go really well with Bacardi though :whistle:
I also like standard rum (and grog - but it takes a while to prepare).
I like some homemade hard liquers (but it has to be quality stuff - not just something a local rummy would brew up) or really smooth wiskey, scotch or brandy.

I really dislike beer!

I prefer white wines to red, although I enjoy quality wines. The problem with red wines is that they taste like cork (as Stroggy mentioned) but that's only because they are usually older and must be in contact with the cork - otherwise the corck goes dry and the air can enter the bottle.

I generally dislike gin and vodka (although vodka does have it's strong points).

I like to experiment by mixing different drinks together. One of the best mixtures I found is something like this:
Merlot, honey, pineapple juice, vodka and rum. Add each accordingly to your taste. Makes a hell of a puch!
Also good for a strong coctail - Bacardy, Rum, Wiskey, cola, lemon juice and lots of ice!

But remember - don't over do it!!! Being really drunk can be dangerous for you and everybody around you - being slightly drunk can be dangerous for you - depending on the people around you.

also one i havnt seen metioned yet is absinthe .... there is one bar in this town u can get it in, it costs 5er a shot, but my god, its like something illegal when u drink it, even when u stop u just keep getting more an more wrecked, amazing stuff!

Real absinth is illegal. It's very strong booze + several types of hallucinogenic drugs.

omg 24-04-2005 05:58 PM

probably why it is a fiver a shot, but man does it feel illegal, if it is illegal how come a: i can buy it from a bar i know and its not under the counter b: for ages bizzare magazine were giving a bottle a month away as a prize, c: the primary ingrediant is wormwood which is similar to thc but you can buy from a witchcaft herbalist, well many o an d: mister expensive alchahol tastes YOU CAN BUY IT HERE so. u the one with expensive tastes, buy some, try it out then come back here to tell us all about your experiance, u will definatly have an odd 1, the last time i drank it with some mates we wount on a total riot, no1 got badly hurt LOL

Absinthe is a bit of a strange case, but I must say more and more bars in Antwerp are serving absinthe again (or so they say)

Lizard 24-04-2005 06:43 PM

It depends on country.For example here on slovakia absint isnt illegal.

Flop 24-04-2005 06:56 PM

Real absinthe is illegal in most countries, AFAIK. The stuff you usually get when buying it in bars, is not real absinthe, and doesn't contain wormwood. Wormwood is the reason absinthe is illegal. It's toxic, and is also used as an insect repellant, and has hallucinogetic properties when used by human beings. I know the real stuff is legal in some countries, as a friend of mine imported some a couple of years ago (I don't remember from which country, though).

is grog actually a brand? or is it jus a generic title for rum? ie: yo ho ho an a bottle of grog ...
How to prepare grog:

-take a wet metal cup, glass,... (anything that can contain water)
-spread sugar on the side of it (it should hold if the surface is wet enough)
-pour watter in the middle and boil it until all the sugar melts into the water
-now add twice as much rum as you did water
-wait a bit until it cools enough (it should be as hot as a freshly prepared tea)
-enjoy the grog
-be careful - it's more entoxicating then regular rum!!!

Danny252 24-04-2005 07:09 PM

is coca cola an applicable drink? ^_^

omg 24-04-2005 07:30 PM

You were drunk at the time...
You should have seen how some other members behaved while drunk...
Now who was it again that fixed the THING and realising next morning he had broken off the sliding door of the CD-ROM drive...
And the posts were just - well - unreadable!
Those people were my Heroes *hint to who may have been among them*... :drunk:

Oooo :w00t: :w00t:
I want so badly to see someone on this forum drunk! :evil:

@Flop There is two "kinds" of absinth in slovakia.First one is regular one without wormwood that you can get basically into every bar,and with wormwood,but you must go to speciallized alchol shop,you must proove you are above 18 and is more expensive.

Sebatianos 24-04-2005 08:07 PM

Sorry guys - but you're about half a year late for that.
I actually saw three people drunk since I've joined the forum (all within the first two weeks). After than... sober!

I like those drinking rituals like the grog ritual earlymentioned (which is new to me) and the absynth ritual and tequila slamming.. fun to do when you're not alone :)

not really i will go for time without drinking (sometimes weeks) but then i will go through time when im drinking a lot, as for this weekend i bin out on the streets flyerin for a gig next week an i find if i have had a coupla doubles before i go out it makes it easier to chat enthuastically about the bands to people i dont know.

hahahaha. i have crashed microsoft words spell checker before on large documents, actually many times, i had this long bit o fiction that i jus couldent spell check untill i upgraded my pc! LOL when i code i copy an paste a lot. as a point of interest most of the spell checkers i have met online are generally very young.
now im gonna go get a drink.

omg 24-04-2005 10:09 PM

o and to get it slightly back on2 the topic o alchahol go here for what is i think a very cool reference to gin an tonic, in a place u would never expect it.

whats the rule here for bumping, contunuas posts ect, i saw the little billy thing, (hahahah) but it dint say nuttin about multiple posts.

BeefontheBone 24-04-2005 10:30 PM

Well, they're not popular - bumping would be ok if it's for a good reason but the only real reason for a double-post would be if it's also a bump (for a good reason, of course). Though it matters less in 3xblah threads like this which serve no particular purpose (and have gone off-topic too...)

looking back i think this is where it went off topic in future i will pm people who annoy me by spelling checks?? but like u sed it dont matter cuz this is a 3x blah thread which is to chat about anything an surly if anyone should be bothered about the diversion from topic it shld be me, it will get back on topic when someone who aint posted yet decides to post a faveorate alchaholic beverege. mm tasty vodka an tonic, refreshing my soul.
btw did u check the link? i think dat animation is one o the funniest things i have seen, an it makes a g an t reference

I dont drink. really. unless concentrated apple juice is alchoholic.. that is that stuff from the bottle with no added water.. nice swig of that and Im happy.

Sebatianos 25-04-2005 08:38 PM

Well concentrated natural juices (apple, pear,... but mostly real orange juice can have up to 2% of alcho).

Well it depends - if it's home-made or factory-made!

The strongest I drank had about 70%. Couldn't have more then two short sips of the stuff. It was way to strong! It was used for special massages. It was some home brewed schnaps made from mandarines!

mmm schnappes an rakia, defiantly the best way to fly. incidently u may not belive this but the strongest thing i have ever drunk was 90 percent portugues white spirit. the stuff had a danger flammable sighn on the side and was bought over by the head chef at the resteraunt my bro was working at. the man had been using it to light his barbaques with, man that stuff was insane! dont think i would repeat the experment tho ....,

Rogue 25-04-2005 10:56 PM

OMG, where are you from?

'Prepecenica' - kind of 'rakija - sljivovica' is strongest I tried (close to 60%)

I know somebody who drunk 1l of so called 'spirit' - 90% alcohol in one day.

He mixed it with watter, creating around 1.5l - 2l of drink.

omg 25-04-2005 11:28 PM

the wird thing with that stuff is even when u mix it it still has this really odd heat that u dont get with voddy. as for me i am english (with a little polish blood) but a few years back (mb 97, 98 cant remeber was 2 drunk hehe) i was living in a shared house with an irish alchaholic, 2 bulgarians and a russian,, i learnt how to do drink pretty quickly, it was either that or spend all my time on the floor....
