killamch89 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Even though I stopped drinking over a decade ago, I'd still prefer wine over beer because it normally taste better. Do you agree with my choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I'm a cider person and that's all I drink, once in a blue moon 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Beer. But If I had my choice of everything, it's hands down 100 proof whiskey. Tequila is good, a cold beer can be good (I would prefer a soda to be honest) but a few shots of warm, sour mash whiskey is where my preference lies. None of that nasty ass sweet shit the Canadians make. If it doesn't come out of either Kentucky or Tennessee, it's not whiskey. Proven fact.

Cider is alcoholic drinks. strongbow CIder that's 4.5% alcohol. DOesn't have much but still a drink to have with your mates where is having a beer.

I said 100 proof, not 100%. 100 proof is 50% alcohol. Everclear is 190 proof, which is 95% pure alcohol. I've drank it straight before, and it's beyond the words I have in my vocabulary. I don't care how strong your alcohol tolerance is, or how strong you think it is. Drinking it straight is a stupid idea. If you just want to know what it tastes like alone, then less than half a shot is fine ONE TIME. But Everclear was made to be in a mixed drink anyway, and not drank straight. Except by stupid ass frat boys. One shared bottle of it in a night is enough to give everyone involved alcohol poisoning. It has more alcohol in it than rubbing alcohol and moonshine combined. And it's sold legally. I currently have a bottle of it to sterilize things and clean wounds. Among other practical purposes. I can drink, but I don't screw with that shit.

Steerminator Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I only ever drink wine. I generally dislike the taste of beer and liquor, and when I drink a lot of them it doesn't agree with my stomach for some reason.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was always my issue with alcohol - How comes they sell some of these dangerous concoctions legally but criminalized things like marijuana up to a few years ago?

Because aside from the prohibition era, alcohol has always been legal regardless of its strength. The issue with moonshine is that it is made secretly and thus isn't taxed. In the 19th century, everything was legal, and often prescribed by doctors. Cocaine was an ingredient in Coca-Cola. Heroin was ironically a remedy for addiction. And the word "Heroin" is actually a brand name and not a generic name. There were drug dens that people would go to which were places specifically set up to get high in. That's where we got the term "drug den". But Nixon's "war on drugs" made every intoxicant but alcohol illegal. Despite it proved, even back then, that marijuana is nowhere near as harmful as alcohol.

Reality vs Adventure Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I used to love this stuff. It tastes just like root beer and fairly strong for a beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the "war on drugs" started - one sham of an operation and it hasn't achieved anything.
