BEER (and apparently, WINE)

[LordVreeg]

Sagrantino Di Montefalco Fratelli Pardi 2001.  Very excellent, heavy for a sagrantino, almost barolo-esque, staryed tight, unwrapping onto green olive amd leather undertones.  Started getting a grpahite taste after about an hour.

Normally I'll take Tequila/Rum straight, if I can't (or won't because 6$ shots at the bar suck) I will drink Richards White or Canadian.

Another rum lover!

On a related note, the good Captain Morgan is now making a 100 proof variety of his famous rum.

No thanks, after taking a double shot of Bacardi 151, I'm good with normal 80 proof.

[SDragon]

Don't think I've ever had 151. Strongest I think I've ever had was Sailor Jerry Navy Spice rum, at 92 proof. Really good stuff, but a little hard to come by at times.

[LordVreeg]

I had a really bad night with 151.  Really bad.  
"WHo are you and where are my pants?"-bad.

[SDragon]

Was she hot?

... It was a 'she', right? ... Right..?

[LordVreeg]

Well, to answer properly will sound somewhat sexist and crass...
But she was really hot from the neck down.  This goes back to High School, and I woke up in a field (private school), and literally had to find ny pants...

Usually, when I drink, I have one of three goals in mind.  I am drinking with food because it tastes good (typically with beer or wine).  I am drinking as a social thing (typically beer or shorts).  I would like to get pissed (usually hard alcohol, typically vodka or whiskey),

Bad times I've had:

At a friend's apartment, decided to get drunk.  Did a couple Estonian Forest Fires (for those in the dark, 1 shot vodka with Tabasco sauce to taste; nowhere near as horrible as it sounds) to warm up.  Did a Chocolate Cake shot a little later on.  Waited a while, was only buzzed.  Had three shots of straight vodka in quick succession.  It was pretty late at that point, almost everyone was buzzed or drunk.  One friend reminded me I had a Screwdriver they made for me still sitting on the table.  I am good and drunk at this point, and decide the best course of action is to down it.  Quickly.  

Where did I go wrong?  I hadn't noticed that when my friend made it, it contained 3 shots of vodka.

In all, I consumed 5 (essentially) straight shots of vodka, 1/2 a shot vodka with 1/2 a shot of Frangelico, ~14 oz. orange juice mixed with 3 shots of vodka.

After becoming intimately acquainted with my friend's toilet, I had learned my limit.  In retrospect, I probably would have been fine if I spread the shots out at a more even interval, but I am not going to try that again any time soon.

Also, I have learned my friends don't have a very good taste for whiskeys.  Something that disappoints a mooch like me terribly.

Had an interesting drink the other night.  If you like your way-too-frakkin-sweet stuff, it was called a Butter-something-or-another.

1 part Butterscotch Schnapps (DeKuypers, we used, I think)
1 part Honey Liqueur (Barenjager)
1 part Bailey's

not bad, something neat for the holiday season

After that, Glen Livet on ice.

1996 whitehall lane reserve (floral Bottle)
My last bottle of this reserve.  :cry:
Made a ribeye with volcanic sea-salt encrusting with a chipolte barbecue sauce.  
Nice when I can say it was ungodly good (or unplanarly good, for those who have read through Celtricia)
Lots of CherrY AND CURRANT ON THE TIP, BUT evolved to add in vanilla snd sandalwood.

Am I wrong in assuming that Glen Livet is some person, and "on ice" is some mafia slang?

[Nomadic]

Pssh a Glen Livet is obviously a type of penguin

[Llum]

Glen Livet is a type of single malt scotch. There's like 10 bottles of the stuff at my place.

If your scottish people buy you scotch, even if you don't drink it.
