    They're mad for wine or so it appears, do they have no taste!?

    Some men drink wine...

    YOu're going to the wrong places - girls here in Tallaght skull back pints.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,466 ✭✭✭Snakeblood


    That's really a broad generalisation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    They simply have no idea of what good value is. Work out the alcohol in a serving of spirits, and glass of wine or a pint of beer and you'll see it goes Beer > Wine > Spirits, the exact opposite of the overall preference that women show.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭Jen Pigs Fly


    I drink beer, I drink Miller or corona

    Beer makes me look 7 months pregnant though, so can't drink too much of it, can make my belly swell for some strange reason. I do have to avoid startchy foods and glutton.


    (3 cans gets me drunk! I love being a lightweight!)

    Loads of Girls I know drink beer... coors lite...but it is technically beer.

    I love red wine too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,559 ✭✭✭Millicent


    Why don't people stop stereotyping the opposite sex?

    I know a couple girls that only drinks Carlsberg and hates Budweiser and a few more that downs the Guinness like no tomorrow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,513 ✭✭✭donalg1


    Maybe they arent thirsty


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 264 ✭✭harrythehat


    I never used to, just don't like the taste of your standard beers. Also, they're very bad for calories!

    I started drinking corona lately and that tastes quite nice. Had to be done as I was forever on vodka before that and I just drink it too quickly and get messssy!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,318 ✭✭✭Fishooks12


    Nothing sexier than a woman drinking a point of Guinness in my book

    I love beer. It's fcking annoying when men pester me on my drink of choice (Guinness). Yes, I drink Guinness. Get over it. Light beer is total crap. If I'm going to drink wine, I'll buy a bottle and drink it at home for the price of what a glass would have cost me in a restaurant. If I'm drinking spirits it's because I want to get sloshed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,456 ✭✭✭westies4ever


    i love beer - and wine? so do most women i know.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    I know plenty of girls who like a bottle of beer.


    They like to reuse the bottle ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43 Shpuds


    The only thing I'll drink is red wine or Guinness. Guinness would be my first choice though.

    An English girl taught me the Tennent mixer.
    Get a pint glass half full with Tennents Lager, then get a bottle of Tennets Super and pour in.
    Drink fast, get wasted.

    You don't know any girls obviously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 302 ✭✭RubyRoss


    Beer belly is not a look most women are after.

    I like Guinness but some people find that curious

    Although, I have a slight bias against men drinking beer from bottles - are they afraid they will be date-raped?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,671 ✭✭✭BraziliaNZ


    I live in London and all of the girls here uniformly seem to drink wine. You never see girls with pints of beer (I'm sure you do but it's not as common as back in Ireland).
    On the flipside, men here are big effeminate homo types that roll up their trousers and don't wear socks etc, so whenever I fancy drinking a glass of red wine in a bar, I still look 200 times harder than the rest of the "men" around here!
    If I was to ask for a glass of shiraz in my local back home I'd be tarred and feathered, rightly so!

    nothing shouts of 'tool' more than a lad who bases attraction on something so superficial.

    to answer the OP, I think the people that don't drink beer probably mostly don't because they don't like the taste. that's my reason anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,130 ✭✭✭Azureus


    A cold beer is lovely on a hot summers day, but I'd still rather a glass of white wine.
    If I do drink beer, which I would the odd time, its out of a bottle and never a pint glass-something about a girl + a pint glass looks and feels wrong to me. That, and I'd never drink a whole pint before it turned warm and gross.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭Norma_Desmond


    Beer is yucky and wine tastes like vinegar!

    Spirits ftw!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Caveman1


    I know loads of women who drink beer, mostly from bottles but a few drink pints. Women drinking pints of Guinness is more rare id say but you do see it.

    Nothing shouts out ''lol'' than people taking things seriously on After Hours.

    Most women like beer! Just not pints, can never finish them before they taste all warm!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    Plenty of girls I know are Corona drinkers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭Spunge


    But beer is horrible !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭boomkatalog


    I hate wine. I only ever drink pints of cider, through a pink straw mind 'cause I'm a fcuking lady.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,463 ✭✭✭Antomus Prime

    Get your coat! :D

    For a start they are all horraible. I know a lot of people like the taste somehow but s lot drink it even if they think it is piss. Screw that, I want to drink something I like

    I think guys fall victim to this more-I know so many guys who would love to be able to drink a vodka+west coast cooler / cocktails etc but dont because they're 'girly drinks' and would get the piss ripped out of them down the pub.

    My boyfriend got called a snob for sharing a bottle of wine with me down the pub-its weird how much judgement is cast on people for what they drink, but everyone does it subconciously or not.

    Defo a woman, i find women get more tanked up these days then men.
