You're not alone. That's how I feel. I bought a bottle of Patron one time and everyone thought I was crazy when I said I liked to drink it on the rocks.

Texsox Posted November 27, 2007 Author Share Posted November 27, 2007 There are some crazy expensive estate bottled tequilas that are unbelievable smooth sipping. I've been to a tequila tasting or two and really enjoyed myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDylan Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 (edited) QUOTE(Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 26, 2007 -> 05:59 PM) Jameson whiskey on the rocks. My first few bottles I had to add some water, but over the course of the year (got into it when my parents came back from Ireland and fell in love with it) I'm finally able to handle it straight up for the most part. About 2 glasses (4-5 shots) and I'm good for the night. Thank you, sir. Was about to post this. There is nothing better than Jameson on the rocks. If you don't think you can handle whiskey or don't like the taste, let it sit in the ice for a few minutes and you're golden. It tastes fantastic. (But don't chug.)

Mplssoxfan Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Maker's Mark, on the rocks or in a Manhattan. Bombay Sapphire Martinis, shaken, up, one olive. Jim, try some Kostritzer if you can find some. It's worth a search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, the Schwartz is with you. Kostritzer is a long-time favorite of mine and the schwarzbier style is my favorite German dark lager style. Gooood stuff.

CanOfCorn Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Recently, I've been into micheladas. There are kinda two ways to make it...one, basically a Bloody Mary where you substitute Mexican beer for the vodka. Or two, mexican beer, worcester, tobasco, soy sauce, lime juice and salt. Mmmmm...

I've not been lucky enough to sample anything from That place – I assume it's fairly new? Hmm, come to think of it, other than Summit, Schell, the defunct first James Page, and Cold Spring (now Gluek owns them I guess), I don't think I've had anything else out of Minnesota. Not much regional micro stuff makes it out to the Beer Wasteland that is Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Beer of choice for me is usually Corona's. Unfortunately I can't get them as cheap down here as I could when I was over in the States, you're looking at $15 for a sixpack down here, and up to $8 a bottle in some bars in the city down here. I do also love Beck's and Heineken's though. Usually down a few Beck's straight after work on a Friday. Also some of the Belgian Beers such as Leffe, which unforunately you can't buy more than 1 each, are great, especially the Blond flavor. Mixed drinks usually I just go for the Southern Comfort and Coke. Bought a couple of bottles from LAX duty free a year or 2 ago, and I still have a bit left.

I agree completely. However for the most part, whenever someone gets me a shot thats normally what I end up drinking. Also, my friend, a guy, is on the strangest Mikes Hard Lemonade kick and its beginning to scare and/or bother me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I blacked out included taking many shots of jaeger. It just goes down so easily, it's hard to stop... But I must say that I've never actually bought a bottle myself. I've only drank it at bars or when someone else has it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have really embraced being old as dirt haven't you? That’s a good man. I was just thinking of a flaming rum punch. No, it’s not cold enough for that. Not nearly cold enough . . . Wait a minute . . . wait a minute . . . I got it. Mulled wine, heavy on the cinnamon and light on the cloves. Off with you, me lad, and be lively!
