Beers from Europe are far superior than what is produced in America.

True

 

Eh, depends on what you drink.

 

Sam Adams in several forms can, and has, gone toe to toe with most beers made anywhere.

Agreed. I was pleasantly surprised by the awesomeness of Sam Adams' Cherry Wheat Ale. I didn't think cherries and beer would go well together, but I should have known better. After all, Corona and lime is quite refreshing.

 

Also, my preferred drinking method for the very tasty Blue Moon Belgian Wheat Ale is to drink half and then drop an orange slice in the glass. It's like you just started a totally different beer! :D

Danish beer ftw  ... oh and I like Czech and German beer as well.  :D

 

Can't exactly say I've ever heard of Portuguese beer.

 

 

The two bigger brands are Sagres and Super Bock. Personally, other than Czech beer and Guiness I can't say I've ever found beer that I liked as much as the two portuguese brands. Oh, and Lapin Kulta was also pretty good. As for bad beers, American, Spanish and Swedish are the worst. Particularly Spendrups.

 

 

Funny sidenote: In Portugal, a lot of people swear by either Sagres or Super Bock, and won't touch the brand they don't like. Anyway, my mom once did a market survey on beer and found out that nearly everyone who was dedicated to one of the beer brands, actually couldn't distinguish one brand from the other when doing a blind test.

Well I actually didn't know any Swedish brands either, they're obviously much more into making cars, which we on the other hand, aren't.

Having lived in Sweden, surely you must've crossed

I don't know. The one time I was in Norway I didn't have any beer.

I was just too busy skiing.

I never drank horse pee but I assume it tastes like beer.

Nozz-A-La...

 

Oh well, Coca Cola

 

I love limonades, especially cokes and best of those is One and True Coca Cola

Are any Scottish ales mass-produced in the states? If so, are they any good? I got hooked on one at the local brewpub (they just called it "Scottish Ale") in my old town, and since I've moved I haven't found anything like it.

Jack Daniels & Coke is my poison of choice.

You know about the Green Fairie?

I know something of the history of Absinthe ...

Of course you do.

Absinthe might as well be ipecac solution.

?

 

ipecacuanha 

n noun the dried rhizome of a South American shrub, used as an emetic and expectorant drug.

 

ORIGIN

C17: from Portuguese, from Tupi-Guarani ipekaagu

A medicinal preparation made from the dried roots and rhizomes of this shrub that is used to induce vomiting, particularly in cases of poisoning and drug overdose.

 

The clue was in emetic

My question mark was with your use of a different word from the one I could find, not the definition of the word I found. (Read: I know what emetic means.)

Oh, ok then that settles that!

Gin, bingara, and lime juice.

IBC Cream Soda.
