i agree with both of you. i drank a couple of shots of lachan oro, cream de chocolate and a shot of jaegermeister...all of which were pure dreck, but they put me to sleep and i woke up this a.m , top of my game and jumped in the lucha all over again.

but.....night will draw neigh again, and the cupboard only holds those wierd liquores.... dad's stash was fantastic when he first left, but i've slowly worked my way through it and now, although they're all fine liquores, they're really the dregs...pity

yo, bro, do you have that right. especially that jaegermeister....nasty. when i was working on a publication in switzerland, many years ago, i drank a lot of shnaaps but plain shnaaps, not that colored crap. apple, pear or cherry, wasn't to bad a drink. did the job. but these sweet, wierd elixers are just 'one toke over the line'.

i don't like beer, but i drink it occassionally...i'll buy a good german beer and drink a little and cork it up for later. sounds wierd? it probably is. as you well know, in germany, there aint no fake beer. no speed brewing, only hops and what ever. it's either beer or it's not. it's the law there. anyway, since the liquor cabinet is empty, i pulled out this two week old bottle of german beer which i had drank a little, corked it and stuck in the fridge. tonight i took it out and--flat as could be--i drank it. tough times require tough solutions.

I don't mind an occasional (once a year) bourbon and Coke, but I always get so messed up after drinking a relatively small amount. Now beer, my ailing liver can testify - I am world class at it's consumption.

i'm with you robert...just substitute the whiskey for a good ron or vodka/gin and i'm good to go. do you cork your beer and keep it in the fridge for a couple of weeks?

Bourbon? Evil stuff. I last drank it over 20 years ago with some USAF personnel in Turkey. I got paralytic- literally. I couldn't walk. Had to be carried back to my hotel. Hangover of skullcrushing proportions. Never again.

For many years, I was a sour mash guy- Jack Daniel's. Until one night I discovered the hard way that my invisibility when I drank enough Jack was merely a self-induced fantasy. A bone-crushing right in response to my big mouth taught me that it was time to swtich to rum...

Oh Crikey- rum! I used to love the stuff. Until I overdid it in Buga one night. The hangover was so bad I actually wrote a post about it. Now I just stick to beer, occasionally have wine with dinner and, exceptionally, will have a glass of Irish.

i finished a toil yesterday in deland and afterwords, for my reward, i ate a filet mignon and drank about 5 shooters--i think they were doubles--of mount gay dark. although, snockered, i was good to go and challenged the highway to get myself back home.

as for america's traditional drink, whiskey, my dad drank some drek--hill and hill--all his life. just nipped at a pint which he kept in his tool box. he'd take from the tractor and sit down, have a smoke and a couple of 'slaps' of that stuff. i never discovered what folks enjoyed in whiskey, scotch, bourbon or by what ever other names it's known. it, for me, just tastes horrible.

Douglas, I never have drank part of a beer and corked it for later. I drink beers in lots of 3. I can't drink less than three. And I usually end up drinking beer in amounts evenly divisible by 3. ...... 3,6,9,12, 15, etc.

david....mogen david/strong. you musta been drinkin that 154 stuff south bound was talkin about by mistake. mogen david and strong are like oxymorons together.

robert...it's just that i'm not a beer guy...nomatter what brand it is. i usually buy the big bottles, have a glass and then, cause i didn't really enjoy it, but for frugality's sake, i cork it and drink it later. two or three weeks might go by before i give it a thought. i don't need to tell you, it's usually flat, but for me and beer, that's a non issue.

so many of my friends are what i call 'pounders', they can drink bottle after bottle of the stuff, as you mentioned above. for me, i guess cause i'm slight of weight/frame, a little liquor is far better and i don't feel bloated. pour me a ron, please.

Man it took me a while to get to this thread. My kind of thread...I usually hate beer but now I think I am addicted to Pilsner Urquell though It doesn't have any effect on me. I don't get hang overs unless Im mixing tequila with martinis or something criminal of the sort. I like Jagermeister and I have a bottle of absinthe sitting here, but I am saving it for next year. I like Jack Daniels and Coke, especially when im feeling fat, but I drank one of the mid sized bottles on my own a couple of weeks ago and i just got a tad buzzed...so I am worried now. Getting drunk is becoming an expensive past time. :(

This reminds me of when I was 14 years old. My friends and me would raid the liquor cabinet at a friend's house. They had all kinds of sweet liquors...chocalate, mint, cherry, ect....ALL disgusting! There was one particular bottle of cherry flavored booze that the grandparents bought in Mexico in the 60s. Never opened. It had a rusty looking cap. We got one kid to drink it and puked his guts up minutes later...LOL

c-k...i like coke, too. i'll pass on the jagermeister....dad left a bottle of that behind, and i'm still nursing it, little by little, when there's nothing else. but i've never been known to say no to the 'real thing' especially after living 19 in colombia.
