The liquor store!


What's your preference in alcohol?
I just bought:
Captain Morgan 100
Petron Gold
And Lagunitas Maximus - a high gravity ale
It's the holidays! Can't be empty-handed when family, friends and neighbors drop by. That's what I keep telling myself ;)
I know not everyone drinks, but most have a preference. What's yours?

reply

I like beer, mostly.

If I feel like spirits it's usually a rum or whiskey, just on ice, I don't like it watered down and I can't handle drinks mixed with coke.

reply

Yeah, whiskey + coke is gross.

Congrats on the 8ks!

reply

Thanks.

reply

A purist. I can appreciate that.

I just bought a Johnny Walker Double Black last week.

reply

Haven't had much whiskey since teenager days. Bad memories of typical teen overindulgence. Should probably say blurry memories lol!

reply

Yeah. Best memories of my life.

reply

How is the Double Black different from the Black Label? I'm not much of a scotch drinker, but I still usually have a small amount on hand.

reply

Double Black is smoother and has a quite noticeable smokey taste.

reply

That sounds good.

reply

Picked up a case of Lagunitas Brown Shugga today. So glad it's back in season.

reply

Just started drinking Lagunitas. I'll have to try that. What's different about it?

reply

It's a sweet, smooth lager with a slightly spicy slant kind of like cider. It's also very potent.

reply

Wow sounds good. The Maximus is 8.3. Doesn't take much. Just found out Lagunitas makes a cappuccino stout. Gotta try that!

reply

Beer, but for spirits, I like Gin. I usually have a few different brands on hand. My favorite right now is Tom Cat Gin.

reply

Haven't had much gin. What I had was fine, I guess maybe just the area we're raised in? I'll try most anything.

galliano l'autentico

to make my harvey wallbangers

reply

Had to look that up ;) Sounds slightly like green absinthe, but probably completely different.
God, Harvey wallbangers! My first drink. I was eleven, chasing my cousins around, thought my father had orange juice. Gulped it down. Big surprise!

reply

Back in the days when I could drink I was true to my peasant roots. Beer with pizza and red wine with spaghetti !

reply

No more drinking? Bummer! Love sangria!

reply

Nothing lasts forever, as far as I know...

reply

The only thing I can drink without getting a hangover is Rum, with Captain Morgan being my preferred brand.

I haven't had a drink in over 2 years; just not important to me.

reply

I understand. Sometimes I'll go months without a drink. But occasionally do want an alcohol buzz. I've never enjoyed being drunk, tho. I don't like like the loss of control.
Congrats on your sobriety!
