I like to soak it in cider.

Quote from: DKG on December 17, 2024, 07:56:38 AMAre you a beer man? If you are what do you like? light lagers, ales, stouts, or possibly British cider?

I like light lagers.  Ales are OK and I like some hard ciders. Stouts and dark beers suck.  I do like me some of the micro-brewery products around, like Two Brothers up the river from me in Aurora.  They brew a kick ass honey weiss.  But for the most part, I just stock my fridge with some common swill.

Quote from: Reggie Essent on December 14, 2024, 09:32:52 PMI only liked bourbon. Four Roses or Evan or that Basil Heyden stuff.  That was too fucking expensive.  Evan and Jack are similar, but Evan tasted smoother to me. Jim Beam ain't bad either.  Don't matter now, I laid off that juice.

Quote from: Lokmar on December 14, 2024, 10:11:35 PMI've found its best to fortify yourself with zinc, magnesium, and potassium if you're gonna drink hard! Plus, if you buy the tippy top shelf shit like Lokmar does,you dont suffer from the side effect that you get from the cheap shit.

Trust me. Ima fukin proffesssional!

It is true that top shelf stuff doesn't rot the gut so much.

Quote from: Reggie Essent on December 14, 2024, 10:08:45 PMIt weighs on you after a time, brother. 

Or one can moderate what one imbibes according to their wants and desire as time goes by.  I do know that my mornings are easier now I'm lighter on the intake the night before.

Now I'm hungry from breakfast tomorrow ...

Quote from: Herman on December 14, 2024, 09:56:56 PMSo what is the problem with that.

It weighs on you after a time, brother. 

Quote from: Lokmar on December 14, 2024, 09:59:58 PMIts best if you stick with only top shelf shit as you age. I'd recommend Old Forester 1924, E.H. Taylor Single barrel, or a top shelf Wild Turkey Product.....either Rare Breed or Russel's Reserve 15 year.

Quote from: Reggie Essent on December 14, 2024, 09:54:48 PMIt's not like I won't have a bourbon on the rocks if I go out somewhere. I just stopped putting a bottle on my cupboard shelf because it was too easy to have a shot or five every night. ;)

I hope I never get that old!!!!

Quote from: Lokmar on December 14, 2024, 09:38:53 PMSo I'm not a fan of ANYTHING Jim Beam. Why? It has no sweetness to it and it hits me like rot gut.

Cucknadian Whiskey is way too sweet to me.

Heaven Hill is between Brown Foreman and Jim Beam to me. Buffalo Trace is between Brown Foreman and Cucknadian shit.

Anywho, Buffalo Trace (top shelf) and Brown Foremen is my jam.

Goddammit!  I don't drink the shit no more.



I just stick with good old beer.
