Ok, so what is everyone drinking

[The Hedgehog]

Beer for now but it is not doing it. Time to step it up. I just wish that they would put those drinking icons up front where lushes like me can find them easily!:drinkbeer:

Maybe we need a Let's make and ass out of yourself section. Do you think I could be a moderator?

[VetteLT193]

chilled with Sam Summer over dinner with the family.

Now... Jim Beam with Ginger Ale. odd for me, wanted something different. :cool:

[Last Real Texan]

A little old fashioned drink of worm wood spirits...I picked it up in France...Absynthe...my favorite, makes you feel all spongy:drool::drool:

[txtaz]

Uhhmmm, Wish I could play. Last time I drank, Mrs. Taz ended up with a Taz tattoo. She did it to me I swear. :shocking:

Actually it was the pancreatitis brought on by meds raising my lipids to over 3000. It was a very nice 9 day stay on morphine in the hospital to the tune of a nice used 22c. Now I can't take cough medicine.

So keep the stories coming, I'll live(drink) through you guys.

AND who in their right mind tees off at 5:30? :bonk::bonk::bonk:

[mrfixxall]

Captain and az green tea! and a scot of yaggar..:shocking:

We were first ones in the parking lot this morning... Playing in a light rain. Absolutely perfect. Went crazy low, wasn't a great ball-striking round, but scored well.

How many of you guys play?

BTW, I'm a Tennessee boy. I actually almost never drink but if I do it's straight Jack for me.

matty, I just want to let you know that I just spent way too much time laughing at 4 of his videos on youtube cause of this one. He is a comedic genius.

Oh, and no drinking for me tonight. Corona messed me up somehow last night, so it's just water for me right now. But usually...well I'll drink anything ;)

[The Hedgehog]

Tutor yes, moderator no :yes::yes:

Good point. Moderate is not really part of my vocabulary:biggrin:

I am with Vette on the mix it up theme. Vodka drinks for now.

[The Hedgehog]

Captain and az green tea! and a scot of yaggar..:shocking:

Yeah, I hit a shot of the Jag too. My buddy Jason came over. The beer was not doing it so we hit some Jag. I moved over to Vodka after that:toilet::alky::drinkbeer:. Like Tex, I am starting to feel spongy. Probably not as Spongy as Tex. Dancing with the Green Fairy is one of my favs but all of the Swiss stuff is at Roller Girl (thank goodness). Maybe another Vodka or two and then I will go looking for something better in the bar downstairs. Or better yet, I will go walk my lab Roger. That always settles me down. Can't get too out of hand. 85 degrees tomorrow and the X-18 wants to go run at Center Hill. Hmm, probably going to need to stay at the Hideout tomorrow night.

[txtaz]

Matty, That was a riot. I love old Robbin Williams standup. I have "Night at Perkins Palace" and it is awesome. NBC should have gotten Robin Williams to host The Tonight Show. Never really cared for Conan.

Oh yeah, I also make attempts at golf.

A few Belgian ales for me tonight. Just got legalized down south and I'm enjoying the change of flavor!!

[Ghost]

Tonight is a red wine and steak night. My wife made up some sort of rum concoction earlier with fresh lemon and strawberry, and that was tasty for a sip. But on to the wine and the steak, and maybe an absinthe after dinner tonight.

George,
It sounds like you might also be a non drinker. I rarely drink anything except water, but I treat myself to a soft drink about every two weeks. Black cherry, rootbeer, and cream soda are probably my favorites. I enjoyed alcohol so much when I was younger that I quit when I turned 40 - 16 years now without alcohol. Bill

Congratulations to you!
I never drank alcohol very much. I just don't care for the "disconnected" feeling or the aftereffects.
I know some folks need something to cut the edge, or stress, or whatever. I'm happy w/life the way it is, except it'd be nice to make some income this year.

I come at this from another perspective, but have the same conclusion as some others. I congratulate you, despite my enjoying the effects of alcohol when moderated properly. And most of us who do this also occasionally drink more than we should, giving further appreciation for the good sense of the discipline you exhibit.

George, I think your statement just changed my life. Nevermind the details, but there's a lot to be said for being happy just "the way it is". Thanks :)

[The Hedgehog]

I think it is great for those that don't like alcohol and can respect it. For those like Bill, I solute you. I know a few that can not conquer it like you.

I enjoy both the taste and effect of alcohol.

[Conquistador_del_mar]

Thanks guys for the congratulations. I should not have rained on the drinking parade by disclosing a problem I once had - that was honestly not my intent.
Like George, I try to enjoy every day and it is much easier for me now with a straight head. I do have to ask my wife occasionally if I am still crazy - as long as she answers "yes", I know I am doing fine - lol. The few times I do get stressed out, I now drive around thinking until the "crisis" is resolved.
Now back to the theme - right before I quit drinking, my favorite beer was Samual Adams lager and Makers Mark was my favorite bourbon. Bill

I did not get that "holier than thou" feeling at all from your post. You pulled it off without sounding that way or prudish. I can respect that.

I enjoy Sam and Makers on occasion.

This morning however, it is Community Coffee medium blend.

[Barry Eller]

COLD beer, most any kind. Bloody Mary's made with Clamato juice. Margarita's on the rocks with Kosher Salt mixed with a pinch of lime salt. Dirty Martinis. Cruzan Black Strap Rum anyway I can get it. And I usually have a Mason Jar of "Shine" in the freezer.:kingme:

I'm not a huge gin fan, but I've got some friends who refer to gin and tonic as "summer in a glass." I find that humorous.

That's interesting. I might have to try that. I'm trying to ween myself off beer as I'm wanting to lose some weight. Only problem with mixed drinks is they usually combine with coke or something else that's full of sugar. It comes out as a wash in the end.

I do have the last few pulls of a bottle of Jonnie Walker Green really smooth maybe as an after dinner drink

[chrisc2]

Simple - King of beers w/ Dung Crab/Oysters/Salmon - Fresh, I mean caught today right here. Anyone who has been up here in the summer understands. The NW is GREAT in the summer. The above described fare is just the normal summer thing..

BacarDonzi and Coke.. You know, they were made in the same hemisphere, they must be related..

I got over the Beast by 12th grade.

There was a kid who would pay me $5 a week to take him to school. After dropping him off I would go grab my 12 of the Beast. Then there were the all day cookouts at the hunting camp. Lots of beast there.

When I got to college I moved up to Lite.

I was accused of being "trendy" one time because I drank Martini's.

I could not figure that one out. Ok, so I was 23 and drinking $5 (back then) drinks when everyone else was drinking $4 drinks. The bartender would give me a whole shaker of gin for $5. For a whopping $15 I could get some business done. That's not snotty, that's a proper game face.:yes:

The younger drinkers these days do drink some sort of silly martini's though. Since when did a martini have chocolate in it? Now that's yuppie stuff!:nilly:

[mattyboy]

Beer is not about status symbols or financial status or price

sorry Joe it is all about the taste


next time you get a chance and have a king of beers in an alum can cut it open look at the "lining" or treatment they put in the can. It is not about the taste or keeping the beer fresh it is to stop the beer from eating the alum :eek: I have no taste or desire to have any busch product.

I drink light beer for medicinal purposes or by the Dr's order otherwise it is real beer . drinking BUD for 35 years has killed the lining on my stomach bud light is no better try a bud lime first one taste ok till the acid hit's

the best light beer i ever had was a molson canadian light when i was up by boxy

another criteria for beer is the hangover effect or how does my stomach feel the next day.

I can tell if i had one or two buds( usually the only thing left in a cooler for me to drink it) or if i drank draft beer from dirty or seldom used lines

it is hard to find a good beer from a nat'l brewer. they think about mass quantities , spoilage, how to transport in large volumes. which can sometimes ruin or interfere with the taste.

sometimes the best beer is a regional or local beer

but my favorite beer is always my next one ;)
