Strawberry and Lime Cider! Coz I feel like gaying it up tonight!

Also, some freshly squeezed orange juice.

Goofle 02-10-2012 09:48 AM

I don't care if it's only a soft drink. this drink is the nectar of the Gods.

PoorOldPo 02-10-2012 11:43 AM

Looks good!

Engine 02-10-2012 12:50 PM

It's only the afternoon here but:

'Cause it's Friday; I ain't got no job...and I ain't got shit to do.

Dale's Pale Ale from the greatest state in the West.

6.5% and I'll be having more than two.

Oh it is

It tastes like Turkish Delight

PoorOldPo 02-10-2012 01:07 PM

my god! I'd say it isn't very good for you though! very sugary?

Urban Hat€monger ? 02-10-2012 01:09 PM

No more than any other soft drink.

I'm talking about traditional turkish delight, not the bright pink one covered in chocolate.

It's the rose water & ginger that gives it it's flavour.

Sounds like a sweet deal and almost certainly better than your typical 40 or cheap lager, but how is the taste on it?

I've had some 11%s that have tasted much better than 8%s before, etc.

I just had some gatorade and gay looking margarita mix without alcohol with vodka heavily interspersed throughout. Quite a "gay" looking drink being that it looks like an appletini, but it got me so hammered that I could barely walk, so I guess that I win overall, no matter how I look when I absorb the drink that I am drinking.

Never heard of it. Thought we wouldn't have it around here. Turns out we do. Bought a four pack. Drinking it now. Thank you. I wanna try a few other of their flavors.

I love that it actually does taste like something from 100 years ago.

Tasty, and affordable for California brewed around here. Sixer for $8.95. Can't beat that; that's the same they charge here for like, Blue Moon and Magic Hat.

Mrd00d 02-11-2012 09:19 PM

I love Eye of the Hawk. Delicious. At my favorite local/small chain sandwich place, Beach Hut Deli, they serve it on tap as well as offering "Hawk-shots". Half the price of a tall boy, like 2 dollars a pint.

Awww, man, that would be awesome.

I just get it because one of the liquor stores around here ordered it to test it out, and I sang its praises so much they always have a sixer at least lying around for me. They know I'll buy it. :laughing:

It's tasty, and certainly tastes nothing like it would as high an ABV as it does; I'd never have guessed its ABV just from tasting. I'd have thought 6% at most. I also love that it's so hearty. Delicious, and something I will buy everytime if I can't afford pints of Bastard, Ruination, or Dogfish Head.

Yeah, you've got great beer tastes, when you have the cash for it. :D

PoorOldPo 02-12-2012 12:39 PM

I drink very rarely ( :o I know, and I am Irish, impossible! )

but when I do, I have a good time. I tend not to like getting ****faced on a night out.

Happy belated Bob. Been meaning to try that brand. Kind of surprised there are brewers in Sparks. Not the greatest scores on Beer advocate, but decent enough.

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...Ipv6jg&cad=rja

Had four of these this weekend to change it up, not bad. And one of the coolest looking bottles.

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...zMKJ0g&cad=rja

Got two of these at my local place, gonna age them for awhile. Coolest bottle ever though, had to get one to save.

NSW 02-14-2012 05:45 PM

Vodka and Capri Sun. Don't hate. It's actually much better than I thought it would be.

Not going to bother trying to find an eating topic, so I just ate pasta salad and made no bakes. I tried out Fentiman's Curiosity Cola, and found it to be too heavy on the ginger. I imagine I'll love the orange and lemonade varieties, so those are my next two choices. I also wanna try the dandelion & burdock, but have no idea what to expect.

PoorOldPo 02-15-2012 02:13 AM

Oh we love that **** down here!





















AWHHHHHHH YEAH!

I was drinking tennents too, but apparently MB didn't like the pic. The first bottle of Buckfast was a nice bottle, second was rancid. I've never drank Buckfast sober in about 4 years no joke. Sends me off my head the same as Vodka.

GravitySlips 02-15-2012 12:54 PM

I had a bottle of this last night. First time in a year I've drank it... oh my. Always an eventful evening!

FETCHER. 02-15-2012 02:53 PM

"Oh my. Always an eventful evening." You're certainly right haha.

Wayfarer 02-15-2012 06:20 PM

For some reason, it was on sale at my local liquor store for just over $2 a bottle :bowdown:

PoorOldPo 02-15-2012 06:28 PM

Had a lemsip!

Thats a pretty decent chocolate. I would recommend the Rogue chocolate stout if you two haven't tried it.

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...vIAo_w&cad=rja

They now have a double chocolate stout available which i'll have to try.

FETCHER. 02-16-2012 01:03 PM

That looks delicious. Is it an American thing yeah?

Nope. Wells and Young is from Bedford, England. You should be able to purchase it anywhere in The UK.

Rogue chocolate is only available on the west coast of The US.

I haven't been able to get up that way yet. Russian River, Lost Coast and Sierra i have been to. Not for lack of wanting though. I'm sure its top notch as their beers are always outstanding. I enjoyed the rye ipa also from sierra, i'm a bit of a beer snob though and don't usually go with unfiltered water, but i forgive them. One day soon, i'll make a trip up to Oregon.

PoorOldPo 02-17-2012 01:28 PM

Dutch gold, and weed.

theyouthexpress 02-18-2012 05:50 AM

I'll drink Coke can with french fries tonight.........:shycouch:

DoctorSoft 02-20-2012 07:14 PM

Last night I had a 40 oz of some stuff called Cold Creek Ice and some stuff called Perfect 10. Found out they were both made by the same brewer as Thunderbolts are. Albertan pride!

FRED HALE SR. 02-22-2012 10:28 AM

Going to Hollingshead Deli tonight to partake in some Lost Abbey Cuvee De tomme. They have several great selections and their food is really good also. Check out that tap list.
