    I have only rarely had a nice tasting craft beer and yet this statement is met with an awful lot of hostility from those 'in the know'..

    To some people a 'real' beer has to made under the criteria such as, brewed by nuns, when the moon is full and is called some obscure name such as the Goats Testicle or something.

    Oh stop Jonny it's shocking. I was young and trying to impress a lad and drank as much of the petrol that I could. I was never do sick in my life. It's toxic.

    Used to work in a nursing home while I was training and one lady had bad arthritis in her knees. She had a concoction of olive oil and poitín that we'd have to rub in after her shower that would apparently relieve the pain. I could never handle the smell. Rotten

    Not hangovers, just the feeling of complete doom, absolute soul crushing doom.

    I drank 3/4 of a 7up bottle of it when I was a young fella and it's still the only time i've ever puked on the morning after from boozing!

    It's the debbil!! ;)

    Chartreuse. Vile.

    A pickleback. A drink that is 'apparently' popular in America. Had it in San Francisco. Consists of knocking back a shot of pickle juice and then a shot of Jameson.

    It's basically like sucking on a gherkin and then downing a shot of Jameson. It's what i would imagine condensed ballbag sweat would taste like.

    Fcuking rancid.

    Ah but does it come in strawberry? ;)

    And it's quite frankly disgusting..

    So what's the worst alcoholic beverage you've ever had?

    Shots of galliano mixed with some godawful rasberry liquor. Either alone might have been tolerable but together. Ugh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 165 ✭✭Full_TiltKeith


    Buck fast. Bleugh

    remember Carlsberg Special? Woeful stuff! It was a 9% lager. It was popularly known as "Cargo".
