Alcohol is Fun! Favourite Liquors?

I don't drink either, for the same reasons as Roel. I have also seen quite a number of people drunk, and I never liked what I saw. There's also the fact that drunkenness is a sin, according to the Bible.

 

A while back Caroline and I spent a couple of days in Luxemburg (Long story, we were due to be moving out there due to a job I'd been offered but weren't able to go in the end).

Any way, last night we went out for a meal and ended the meal with two Irish coffees, seriously these things were huge, had a quite large number of Whiskeys poured into them but tasted lovely. The walk back to the hotel was slightly more zig-zagged than the walk to the restaurant, I think we still have the decorative stone that Mrs Toastinator adopted as a pet and acquired from outside a Luxemburg office block! :lol:

 

I drink but rarely to excess. Even in my youth I hated getting drunk.

At home I drink shandy as I get two pints out of one can. Also I drink
cheap low alcohol own brand beer.

So I have two nice refreshing pints over 2 or 3 hours and can still safely drive afterwards ifI should need to.

I must confess, there is one alcoholic drink that I do like the taste of.

Jamacan Black Wine.

I don't know if you have ever tasted this (or even heard of it!), but it is jolly good.

It is only prodiuced on one of the smaller islands in the Jamaican group, and we came to know it through our Jamaican neighbour, who always brings a few bottles back to Britain whenever he has been to visit his family.

It tastes very like Galloways Cough Syrup (which only the Brits might have heard of) which I like. In small doses!

More than a few sips at a time and the result is much like having drunk a glass of strong cough medicine - it feels like your throat has been sandpapered.

 

A couple of new takes on GoldSchlager:

Mix this stuff with some Jagermeister and you will have yourself a nice night.

 

A local pub chain does a drink called a TVR, a shot each of Tequila and Vodka mixed with a can of Red Bull. Lovely tasting drink, but one of those unfortunate ones you can drink like it's lemonade then only appreciate that it's alcoholic when you stand up and realise you've left your legs behind.

 

not old enough go 6 more years

 

Wow, that is the most intelligent thing I've ever seen Al Amin post. :smok:

Yes, those good tasting drinks really like to sneak up on you, however, I remember a time where me and 2 of my friends polished off a 1.75 of Karkov Vodka in about 20 minutes, strait. We didn't think we were drunk, but upon standing up one of them puked, the other fell over, and I listened to country music.

 

The first time I had a Long Island Iced Tea, I was (un?)fortunate enough to have a bartender who made a very good one. The first one tasted exactly like iced tea, so it went down very smoothly, and very quickly. So smoothly and quickly that I had to get another one! After the third one, I had to go to the loo. I stood up, and for some reason my legs telescoped on me, and I was looking up at my bar stool. I made it to the bathroom, but very unsteadily!! :roll:

 

I might be going to London and Paris over the easter break , whats the drinking age in those places , and is the beer in these places any good , hmm some of you probably haven't drinkin much foreign beer so your used to your beer and think it tastes good but to foreigners it tastes bad, so can someone that isn't british tell me what they thought of british brew ?

Im 16 by the way.
