Had a couple Coronas yesterday/Diunx unappreciation thread

[Himu]

I tend to stick to the classics, though I am a fan of the Buttery Nipple.

My classics roster:

- white russian (fave alcy drink and is my go to)
- black russian (second fave)
- tom collins
- margarita
- banshee
- gin and tonic
- manhattan
- dry martini

cocktails

Most overrated cocktail? Bloody Mary. I've never had a good bloody mary. Tastes like shit. Then again I think any tomato drink is gross. Regular V8 

[Himu]

Nicca, Tom Collins' are not gay.

[CatsCatsCats]

White Russians can just be a bit heavy for me to drink on all night. We used to make a bastardized version that was Irish cream, vodka, coffee liqueur. So just a glass of booze to drink.

My staple is Gin and Tonic, sometimes whiskey gingerale, beyond that I'll try featured cocktails. I like stuff with absinthe in it. Bloody maries are good if they're spicy.

[Himu]

Dude, get a banana banshee.

[Steve Contra]

As long as no one ever, ever makes a vodka martini.  Ever.

[Himu]

Please tell this does not exist

[Steve Contra]

Most people actually think a martini is vodka 

[brawndolicious]

I was never much of a smoker, but I miss clove cigarettes. Out lawed for being too tasty (and douchey)

Yes I realize you can get tobacco rolled djarums now, but it ain't the same

I switched to an e-cig but I missed djarum blacks so much since they were pretty much all I smoked. I just ordered a clove ejuice though and I'm going to see how well it works.

As a substitute for a regular cigarette, these electric things are perfect.

[CatsCatsCats]

A vodka martini is fucking pointless

[CatsCatsCats]

Yeah all I know about wine is I like red

[Steve Contra]

Contra are you a certified sommelier?

Hahahahaha fuck no.  No interest at all.

[Himu]

I love wine. I'll take it over straight rum, whiskey, scotch, vodka, etc. any day. I really like those hard drinks in mixed drinks.

[Steve Contra]

There's a lot that goes into being a somm that I have no interest in.  You need to know a lot about wines you might not necessarily like, and spend a lot of timing tasting them.  No thanks.

[Eel O'Brian]

fuck all yall, vodka martinis 4 lyfe (cocktail onion in the bottom, splash of olive juice)

gin tastes like someone drank a bottle of pine sol and pissed it into a bottle

[tiesto]

Contra, what are your wines of choice?

[Steve Contra]

Contra, what are your wines of choice?

Reds.  And whites.

[Himu]

I love the taste of gin and its hint of pine.

[CatsCatsCats]

Gin is delicious. Juniper

Son, I will drink what I want, when I want, however much I want, and vomit it out in your face at bar closing

I love heading into the high desert of eastern Oregon, once you get over the mountain you're hit with that juniper smell and it makes me just need some good gin.

[Polari]

I don't see how you can dislike a good cocktail made with gin. especially with all the varieties out now.

:bombaysapphirecry

Forever the gin of 1990s yuppies.

[Positive Touch]

i like vodka martinis and dont give a shit. i still like gin too, but a vodka martini has that special bitter burn that i like so much. i would prolly drink rubbing alcohol tho so take that as you will

Bend

[CatsCatsCats]

Giving you points for sayin Hendricks but there are lot of gins I'd put above bombay. Have you tried New Amsterdam? It's good, but it's pretty citrusy and approachable for gin.

[Diunx]

I'm not a big fan of Wine, but I have in my later years discover the virtues of gin

[chronovore]

Beers for summer: get just about any hefeweizen and put a slice of lemon in it. Or an orange slice.

BTW, if you can find Brash brewery's Item Nine, it is an Imperial Wheat IPA. Jesus, the mouth orgasm.

[Shadow Mod]

Tried a chocolate porter yesterday 

[nudemacusers]

i came for the diunx unappreciation, i stayed for the WHAT THE HELL WHO PUTS SUGAR IN BEER

don't overlook salt in alcohol

[pickle]

When I (eventually) get to visit the United States the Pacific Northwest is so high on my list.

How could anyone possibly down a lovely nice cold beer and think "needs sugar "

[Mupepe]

I don't really drink 

[Eel O'Brian]

I don't know what it is about them, but I can't drink any "ice" beer without getting a headache. I can drink pure shit like Steel Reserve and be just fine, but sometimes I start getting a headache WHILE I drink something like an Icehouse. I don't drink much at all nowadays, though. When I do I usually keep it to a couple of mixed drinks, or stick with a nice cider.

[Polari]

A brewery here does a fine one called Grace Jones.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Germans put coca cola in beer 

Or fanta 

[Polari]

[Cerveza mas fina]

Germans love mixing things.

As long as its not races.

 

[Phoenix Dark]

Germans love mixing things.

except races!

[Mr. Gundam]

Germans love mixing things. I always have a beer mixed with mountain dew at my local German restaurant.

Stiegl Radler is the shit, yo.

Seriously, this stuff is great on a hot day.

[Mr. Gundam]

This. Gose is a German-style soured wheat beer with a little bit of salt added near the end of brewing. Absolutely fantastic low ABV hot weather beer.

[Diunx]

Europe sounds like a freak show tbh.

[Mr. Gundam]

Europe sounds like a freak show tbh.

Nah. Lots of good beer in Germany, Denmark, Poland, Netherlands and Belgium.

[Brehvolution]

Corona by itself

Corona with a lime
