What you've been drinking lately.

4 fingers of my go to bourbon

[Walsingham]

Does anyone find the phrase "The barman gave me four fingers" a bit unsettling?

 

EDIT: because I bloody well do.

[ShadySands]

a lot of bourbon

 

we went to a place called Bull and Bear and had the following

 

Bulleit

Maker's Mark

Knob Creek

Woodford Reserve

Four Roses small batch

 

My boss is a bourbon drinker but I was telling him that nothing is as good as Breckenridge bourbon

They usually just give me one.

[dodo88]

a tiny bit of vodka with red bull

That's because you're tight...

I'm not drinking yet, as it's only 8 a.m. But later I will touring an array of vineyards from the comfort of a games table. I've been drinking nothing but red for months, so may try a dry white, as I do about once a year.

 

EDIT: Earlier this week I mistakenly ordered a shot of Fireball, thinking it was bourbon. IT IS NOT BOURBON.

 

Fireball is a horrible sickly cinnamon concoction. According to the bartender it should be issued to women only. I agree with him.

Yes, I don't tip them, I've always assumed the two are related

[Walsingham]

Several very nice red wines, but in the warm weather my usual go-to reds didn't float me so much, not even with all the barbecued red meat.

 

I'm reluctantly reaching the conclusion that white wine has its purpose, and I only get along with French white wine.

[ShadySands]

Blackberry Moscow Mule

• vodka
• blackberry liqueur
• ginger beer
• lime

[ShadySands]

Tequila and Squirt, a grapefruit citrus soda

[Keyrock]

I'm drinking The Good Stuff:

 

 

Magnificent potato vodka made in Poland, where vodka was invented.  Don't let any Russian or Scandinavian tell you otherwise.

[ManifestedISO]

Right now I'm drinking the chocolatey milk after a bowl of Chocolate Frosted mini-Mini-wheats, but after that it's time for Scotch. In my belly.

[ShadySands]

Too much

 

 

 

...let's get down to business to defeat the Huns...

[AGX-17]

Guinness doesn't go with my meds.

Pshhhhhh.

 

PSHHHHHHHHHH.

 

 

My Irish blood boils as I drink something non-Irish. Cheapo mixer New Amsterdam vodka (stuff tastes like Isopropyl neat,) with soy sauce (the Manchurian Candidate.) The proud, emaciated masses of Éire aren't the only ones to learn the value of potato starch! Also the non-existent Polish family who first made wodka. I have to honor my 1/2 Han Chinese (by way of Taiwan, ROC! ROC! ROC!) family members, hence the soy sauce. If they were Japanese instead I'd be eating Natto and vomiting simultaneously.

 

Best part is, with the proper ratio it looks identical to whiskey in color. I'm going to have a lot of fun with this.

This combo doesn't sound like my belly would approve.

[ShadySands]

Ripped straight from the menu

 

 

Williams & Graham Rock & Rye

stone fruit, clove, citrus zest, cinnamon, horehound, rockcandy (So strong I think I grew a 3rd chest hair)

 

Purple Drank

Ocho Reposado tequila, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, allspice dram, spiced wine (Very purply)

 

The New – Old Fashioned

Maker’s Mark, orange, house cherries, Angostura bitters, sugar, soda water ( Supoib, as Bugs Bunny would say)

Basically you're doing that scene in Apocalypse now with Charlie Sheen and the ceiling fan. But you're the ceiling fan.

[Amentep]

Martin Sheen, surely? Charlie was only an extra in AN.

Woops.

 

EDIT: I've been mainly drinking cough syrup. It is actually pretty tasty. Chilli and ginger.

Oh yeah, it's freaky fruity froo-froo Friday. Least that's what I'm saying to lessen the unmanly stigma. Sam Adams Cherry Wheat ale, to start, and then something called Angry Orchard hard cider, including 5% bottles of apple ginger, crisp apple, green apple, and elderflower--which is somehow related to apples, I am presuming. So far, the ginger is outstanding. 

[Keyrock]

Taking a break from alcohol.  I'm drinking club soda.

[Walsingham]

New cough linctus. The pharmacist swears this will knock me flat and I can sleep.

[Nepenthe]

Auchentoshan Three Wood, Bruichladdich 18yo, Highland Park 18yo and Royal Lochnagar 12yo...

[Walsingham]

Benylin night time. Knocked me spark out yesterday. Hoping it will do the same again.
