What alcohol is in your house? (76)

1 Name: 2005-07-09 14:09 ID:Heaven

Do you drink? What do you like to drink? I have some beer in my fridge (and nothing else (;¬_¬) ) and some vodka hidden away for emergencies.

What's at your place to drink?

2 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-07-10 13:11 ID:8FObBlpm

Vodka
Sake
sometimes tequila-flavored beer

None, nothing, nada, zip, zero.

4 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-07-10 20:07 ID:bS+yZIfr

Some mezcal that I bought for a friend when having been down in Texas.
A half finished can of beer.
And that's about it.

I used to drink lots over some periods of time, but these days I rarely drink by myself and when I do it's never much. I can overdo it at some social gatherings, though.

I have a bottle of Krushovitse (/Krucovice/actual czech spelling) in my bookshelf as decoration - I always drink it and get a new one when I get more study points from my University.

That's about all the alcohol I drink - I drink something like at least 10 times less of anything with alcohol in it per year than normal Finns drink 100% alcohol equivalent. ; )

I do have some kind of alcohol taste though - I want everything to be really sweet. Liqueur is very good most of the time, Baileys and Drambuie being very good (I can get drunk on both without any disgust). Especially Drambuie is recommended, everyone knows what Baileys tastes like anyway.

I don't like beer much, but dark, sweet stuff can work - Krushovitse being my favourite and one of the few things I drink voluntarily. Any candy-like, swett, coloured teenagery stuff will generally work for me in any alcohol category.

I have here a circa 3-year-old bottle of Glen Ardoch single malt which is slowly "ripening" into Asahara-grade sarin.
I hate the taste of any alcoholic beverage except expensive whiskey, which means I averagely drink one tiny sip of it every year and then let it sit and rot!
I'm not a fan of totalt-mörkö-666-alcoholocausts anyways.

7 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-07-11 15:25 ID:tfyE+YJx

a few bottles of red wine, for cooking and drinking.

8 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-07-13 20:41 ID:iZeFNXdX

Red and white wine, vodka, beer, rum, and some odd liqueur things. We don't drink much, so the non-wines/beers tend to sit for too long. The cream in the coffee liqueur separated and solidified into a gelatinous mass in the bottom of the bottle.

9 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-07-16 19:31 ID:Heaven

A couple of beers and a bottle of Ouzo.
I rarely drink much, but I drink a little every day. When I do drink much I drink waaaaaay too much.

I just stick to beer, usually. Pilsener and wheat beer. Though when I feel like partying I'll drink a whisky & coke, but that's rare.

I've tried various things trying to settle on what I like... I've decided that beer isn't worth paying a premium for so I get the absolute cheapest I can find ($1/can) It tastes, um, earthy. Usually I go for harder stuff, lately I've taken to drinking dark navy rum with a little ice.

Whiskey is my new thing, I tried a little Johnny Walker red label (5 years old), I swear to god it smelled exactly like a bathroom. Not piss exactly, but I knew I'd smelled that smell before, and it wasn't from a bottle. Then I paid a little more for black label (12 years old), much better. I've found the secret to not being overwhelmed by the alcohol taste is to give it a good smell first, kind of like wine. Helps you to see what you're in for.

To think I started drinking Smirnoff Ice 2 years ago. Now that stuff tastes like slurpee syrup. In my opinion it's a borderline girl drink.

My Grandpa is here so we have tons of Corona and Scotch. Otherwise its just wine or some Homemade Hard Cider.

Someone bought me a bottle of gin for some reason, so I've been drinking that lately. It's really nice smelling.

The mezcal is still here, haven't been touching it.
My friend however, has been avoiding me recently.
So I might just down the shit.

Also, some vodka.

Only mirin for cooking, usually.
But right now, also pomegranate mead and double chocolate stout. I don't normally drink, so I'm reluctant to try it. I don't like the taste of alcohol.

I've got half a bottle of rum sitting around. I don't drink much.

24 Name: MJP 2005-09-11 02:55 ID:Heaven

Our prior roommate left behind a treasure trove: three bottles of Gray Goose, a half a bottle of Bombay, a big-ass bottle of Bacardi Rum Island Iced Tea, half a bottle of Seagram's, and half a bottle of Johnnie Walker Red, which I gave to my buddy for his use. I don't like whiskey too much.

>>17
Where does one go to get mead? I'd like to try some.

Good Vodka has no after taste. Only bad vodka does.

A bottle of Black Nikka - the 300 yen whiskey! And some dregs of sake that have been sitting in my fridge forever because it's fucking horrible and nobody wants to drink it, least of all me.

That costs only 300 yen????

None, there's no need for it. If we want some to celebrate, etc we just buy some and finish the whole thing. I can't figure out what "emergency" would create a need to drink.

60 Name: Anonymous Chef : 2008-12-30 04:31 ID:QeS0DeI+

I don't drink. Sometimes I buy wine for cooking, though.

I can get a half-liter wine box of Vendange red cabernet sauvignon wine for under $3.50 US and sometimes I will buy this to make a marinade with soy sauce, or for some meat dish.

I am told it's actually considered very good wine for the money (I don't really know), not that subtle distinctions in the flavor of the wine are really noticeable after all the spices are added and a kilo of beef has been braised in it with carrots and onions, of course. :3

61 Name: Anonymous Chef : 2009-01-26 22:29 ID:0rpTOYAH

I've got a small amount of very fancy Scotch (a 15 year cask-strength Islay I got for my birthday back in August and have consumed most of), red and white wine (Argentine Malbec, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc), and half a bottle of arak in the house at the moment. I think I may have some port lying around too, although I don't really drink port.

62 Name: Talentless Troll : 2009-02-03 03:33 ID:EX6PrycD

My drink of choice is Four Horsemen.

1 part Bourbon whiskey (Jim Beam)
1 part Tennessee whiskey (Jack Daniel's)
1 part Scotch whisky (Johnnie Walker Red)
1 part Tequila (Jose Cuervo) or Irish whiskey (Jameson Irish Whiskey)

French red and white wine, a few beers, and in the bar most standard alcohols, but also Triplum, Absinthe, Garlaban, Génépi, Cognac, Chouchenn, Limoncello, Sake, Choum).

Rum, some mix (white rum and orange juice) from >2 months ago, henessey, enough hpnotic to make one more Incredible Hulk, Some wine, and a beer or two. I had more rum, but I polished off 2 half-empty bottles last Saturday.

Just gonna link this because I don't feel like typing it all out (im working on a drink right now :D).

Mostly scotch, absinthe, gin, and vodka. I am absolutely OBSESSED with whatever St. George Spirits puts out. Their flavored vodkas (Hangar One) are AMAZING, and their absinthe is probably the best I've had, and probably the most expensive bottle I own. Since I took this pic I got their raspberry and spiced pear vodka. Once I get their others, I think I'll focus on scotch again.

Downstairs I've recently gotten into infusing my own liquors, so I have some pecan bourbon going, and a jar of basil vodka that's resting. Along with those I have some straight bourbon, rye, vodka, a couple liquers, and a bit of vermouth for when I break out the shaker.

Im not too into wine. I like mead (I actually have some im trying to brew myself), and sake is nice but I only like it with dinner. I drank an entire bottle and didn't get a buzz, but it goes good with japanese so whatever.

Beer im hit or miss on. There's a good one available in the NE US, Magic Hat that's excellent. They come out with all kinds of types and weird flavors.

>>I am absolutely OBSESSED with whatever St. George Spirits puts out.

They're a great distillery. Their flavored vodkas are the only ones of their species that I like. They also do wonderful eaux de vie. If you get the chance, you should go to one of the open houses at the distillery if you haven't already--they have tastings of their entire line of products, specialty cocktails, food, and music. Plus you can taste their absinthe straight out of the still, before it's been diluted. So strong and strongly flavored it actually makes your tongue go numb.

There's a jug of whiskey, unknown brand, and I have no idea how old it is. Found it in my great grandparents old retirement trailer. Its been in my house for 10 years, and my great grandparents haven't been to the trailer in ten years prior. So its at LEAST 20 years old. That shit can wake the dead. I took a single shot of it about a month ago. Burned like a mother... And I'm a big whiskey drinker.
