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?

Vodka
Sake
sometimes tequila-flavored beer

None, nothing, nada, zip, zero.

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.

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

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.

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.

My favorite too. ;)

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.

legal or illegal?

16 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-08-12 01:06 ID:qgK0G74I

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

Mead!

18 Name: 4 2005-08-12 20:08 ID:WAMaWSje

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.

Arrrrrr!

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.

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

25 Name: Apprentice Chef 2005-09-11 15:09 ID:gQdLzQZ3

Trouble with alcohol is that it doesn't work.
