    Well what can I say, the title says it all.
    I got a bottle of Bushmills 21 year old malt yesterday and have now made a large "dent" into it and the beer is sitting stagnating in the fridge.
    Uisce beatha indeed. :D

    but you can't really swill whiskey before yer lying frothing at the mouth uttering madness, at risk of kidney incineration if not death. but then beer won't exactly quench yer thirst either.. i don't know. what curious refreshments. sure its all legal anyhow; knock yerself out. a small whiskey, maybe a wee beer.

    where's the fcukin poll btw

    No they would definitely have been kicked out of the house if they were from Cork

    Whiskey for sure, I've stopped drinking beer for the foreseeable future.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Much like ebony and ivory whiskey and beer can live together in perfect harmony.

    They can if you had the same mates as me one of the lads drinks Jim Beam and tops it up with Bulmers, Very classy chap


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Good whiskey, can't be beaten. I've a bottle of 18 year old Jameson I haven't visited in a while. Might make a change to that now... And if you'd tried to put ice in good whiskey around here it'd be taken off you and you'd get the cheap stuff back. :p

    How about get a life V NONE!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    I reached for the coke bottle for the craic aswell but that wasn't even seen as a joke. Think the aul man was mildly embarrased

    Not a big fan of raw spirits. Though smabuca that's lit with some coffee beans is pretty good

    :D

    That made me laugh. What kind of place do we live in when someone is slightly embarrassed because their "child" wants to water down their hard liquor. :D

    Bitter (Real Ale) all the way imo

    Yesterday was a wine and beer day, today it's been a JD day. I just go with the flow because I don't really have a favorite.

    I highly recommend the Jameson site tour in Midleton if you're in Cork anytime soon

    More info on a link here

    A good day for all

    Was there once, enjoyed it greatly. I didn't drink the whiskey at the end though, don't like the stuff

    Well the bottle came with an invitation to do just that so I might take them up on it if I'm ever in the area

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,395 ✭✭✭Paparazzo


    If I could only have one it would definitely be beer


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,772 ✭✭✭Cú Giobach


    Just before I fall off up to bed, I did a quick count and its official, and all people who expressed a preference for it, prefer whiskey. :cool:
