One of my wife's closest childhood friends came to visit yesterday from Germany. Before coming to the States, she went to Scotland on business and decided to buy me six bottles of beer as a gift. I don't know if she did it out of love or if she is trying kill me. Ok, I know she is not trying to kill me but she did do this intentionally.

BrewDog Tactical Nuclear Penguin- 32% Alcohol By Volume (ABV)
BrewDog Sink The Bismarck- 41%
BrewDog End Of History- 55%
Strength in Numbers- 57.8%
Brewmeister Armageddon- 65%
Brewmeister Snake Venom- 67%

The last one has a warning label. It says "This beer is strong. Do not exceed 35ml in one sitting.

I am glad stuff like this was not available when we were proving our manhood by showing how much alcohol we could handle.

Been a weekend. Saturday daughter softball game, I coach, sons rock band had a gig (outdoor spot, 72 degrees and beer), then daughters sleep over party with the usual shenangins. Today deal with the fallout from the party, sons bans has another gig today then in laws over for daughter bday. Started drinking at sons gig, hitting my stride.

It has been great weather for drinking. Today I got some way too strong Margaritas and started arguing with a Catholic Priest about the Zombie Apocalypse.

So, the wife & I are going, in a week from now, to a resort in Mexico to celebrate our 50th birthdays. By ourself, without the kids.

I'm not a huge fan of resort drinks that are over-sugared and under-alcoholed. When we last did this, I did a lot of gin & tonics, which was fun.

So, who has recommendations for "alcohol & mixer"? I'd like to do a different one every day. Like vodka & tonic, gin & tonic, rum & coke, etc....?

Ironically, the only one I'm not a fan of is tequila, but pretty much any other alcohol is open for options. So, would appreciate some ideas. Thanks!

My wife is out of town until Sunday, I'm just about to walk to a local bar and eat fried food and drink copious quantities of beer.

Just forewarning my appearance in this thread later this evening.

Back in the day, I quite liked scotch and dry ginger ale. I haven't had one in years.

Recently I went through a phase of vodka and lemon soda.

[sovereignstar v2]

Is lemon soda something like Sprite or something more sophisticated lol

I think Australian lemon soda is closer to an American lemonade.

Our lemonade is a clear soda. It definitely doesn't taste lemony.

[Lathum]

In the UK Lemonade is basically sprite.

I've long been a scotch and coke or a vodka and lemon soda guy but I have recently started drinking brandy neat. I usually have red wine during the week and my home brew beer on the weekend but I have started having brandy as my post dinner disgestif.
I think I had my first one one on a recent international flight but I have had a few in the last few weeks and have developed quite a taste for them.

[GrantDawg]

My wife has discovered Sprite, lime rum and grenadine. She can't get enough.

[flere-imsaho]

A good brandy is always welcome.

I haven't had a hangover in years. Doesn't matter if I have beer, wine or spirits or how much I drink. I'll often wake up feeling seedy but no headaches to speak of.

[NobodyHere]

Just doing an early check-in. I have a feeling I'll be needing several drinks to get through the evening/night.

[GrantDawg]

I have to work tomorrow. I will have a lack of sleep hangover, and I can't add a "drink all the beer in the world" hangover.

I'm planning on perfecting my hurricane recipe.
2 oz Lemon Juice
2 oz Passion Fruit Syrup
1 oz Black rum
3 oz blended rum


I'll be experimenting on the specific rums and cutting the Passion Fruit Syrup with Grenadine to mellow the tartness and reinforce the "red" color.

I started drinking at lunch with my wife, then met a friend for happy hour, now drinking at home watching CNN.

Im just now mad at my boss. I asked for tomorrow off over a week ago and he said "I'll get back to you". I asked about it again and he said nothing. If I had drunk courage I would quit tomorrow. I have LeanFire money you know.
