Celebrator Double Bock. Beautifully dark. Highly recommended.

Sparks and jug wine. Usually Livingston or Almaden. I try to go for the "flavors" that sound the least like wine, e.g. Livingston Red Rose.

BOILERMAKERS

uhh?

you're 16? how/why do you drink?

to "fit" in with the rest of the scenesters around here?

This is why I love the SS/FG readers/riders!
Thanks for the hot tips. Salud.

chocolate silk, juice, tea, espresso

I don't drink. I'm straightedge.

Beer: IPAs, Stouts, Wheat Beers, Brown Ales, just about anything with some *taste* to it.

Wine: really don't drink much wine 'cause I'm not a heavy drinker, and I live alone, so I'll rarely finish a whole bottle before it goes bad, as most wines generally don't keep for much longer than a day or two after opening and who wants the same wine for 3-days in a row?

Liquor: I'm a whisky/scotch fan. My brother and sister recently surprised me with a birthday present of a 30 Year Laphroaig. Wow. I like other hard liquors as well but I'm not as familiar with many of them. My standbys when ordering liquor are usually Bourban Manhattan, Maker's Mark on the rocks, Gin & Tonic, or Scotch. I was on a white russian kick for a while, but that's not really "hard liquor", more like candy in a glass .

I recently acquired a bottle of the most interesting liquor I've ever tasted. I went on vacation to Austria recently and in Innsbruck there was this little liquor shop, and the proprietor was super cool. He was telling us all about the local wines he carried and the varieties of Brandy and Schnapps, many of which he made himself, that he had on hand, and even gave us tastes of a few different ones. One of the ones that he made, and that we sampled, was a Schnapps that was made with pine. It's amazing stuff. You'd expect the pine taste to be overpowering, and it is quite strong, but it's also quite pleasant. It comes on kind of strong, as you would expect, but then sorta evaporates away into a smooth, almost vanilla finish. I was impressed enough that I decided to buy a bottle.

I also got a small bottle of absinthe at another store just 'cause you can't get it in the states, but really wasn't all that impressed with it. Tastes like crap AFAIC.

Heh. I was wondering if this might come up. You never partyed at 16? And I have quite a few friends who I've known for a while who might be considered "scene" these days. So, judge away.

::judging::

drinking a 40 of Silver Thunder right now, they were out of Colt 45. i like anchor steam but cant really afford it. grolsh is pretty good too.

awesome! i'm from utica, originally, and grew up around the corner from matt's brewery. have you ever tried utica club? the WORST beer i've ever had the displeasure of drinking. my grandfather used to be so into that stuff, he kept a keg in his bar in his basement. after i graduated from boot camp, he invited me to have a beer with him and i choked on it...failed that rite of passage, i suppose.

does anyone have the scoop on when the brooklyn brewery moved their facilities up there? i'm loving their black chocolate stout, and noticed that it's being brewed in utica.

Two weird things that are my favorite things in the whole world-
Jameson on the rocks, but the rocks are coffee ice cubes-best drink ever.
A shot of Jaegermeister in a glass of Red Bull, Boilermaker-style.
Both of these drinks are simultaneously stimulants and depressants, so you may find yourself doing BMX tricks on your Pistas, and hurting yourselves. Beware.

Drinking some leftover Labbatt Light. $7 case in bottles last week.

What I would rather be drinking:
Founders Pale Ale/IPA
Arcadia IPA
Shiner Heffeweizen
Shiner Bock
40 of Milwaukee Ice

Home:
Chimay

Pacifico (one right next to the keyboard as I'm typing this)
Tecate (preferably in bottles)
Bear Republic Racer X
Morretti
Peroni

and the occasional bottle of 100% agave: Herradura Silver, Patron Silver,
Corralejo Siver or Herradura Repesado or Aņejo. Always served neat or
the occasional margarita made with real fruit and limes in summer.

Damn I'm thirsty now!

OMG. I love it.

Right now, water.

I wish we could get that out west. Liquid ****ing gold.

For me, it Sparks, and:

Damn straight, I ran out of Labatt and now its on to the Dirty Thirty of PBR!
