    Folks what do you drink when out on the gargle?

    Can’t stand lads who drink all these fancy drinks where the barman spends 5 minutes making it, shaking stuff and cutting up fruit, and then looks for 7 quid plus.

    Can’t beat a few pints of porter

    7-10 pints and then some small ones when I can't fit in any more pints on a proper night out. Wouldn't leave the house for less than 4 anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,381 ✭✭✭facehugger99


    Ritz for the tits.

    Sometimes full fat coke but mostly orange wadi.

    A dirty kebab afterwards to make a right job of it

    I couldn't care less what other people drink. Why does it annoy you so much? Share and relieve yourself of the burden.

    It doesn’t annoy me I just like complaining

    If such an establishment can be found and I'm going home to be able to eat it, of course. Couple of battered sausages and a bag of chips would suffice for me though.

    But, like the choice of drink, it's whatever you like yourself.

    Guinness, when I know I'm in a place that has good pints. If not, then normally Heineken. Usually switch to Jameson with a bit of ice if I'm out late and want to get fcuked up.

    No time for the fruity lads who are into their fancy gins and craft beers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    A few pints and dark rum


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    I wouldn't be that fond of nights out, but when I go at it, I do go at it awful and very hard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,595 ✭✭✭hairyslug


    A pint of appletinies

    How is Maureen?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,821 ✭✭✭fussyonion


    Heineken or Tuborg, if available.

    She's in the kitchen making a fry.


    Shirtless.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32,688 ✭✭✭✭ytpe2r5bxkn0c1


    Generally I'll have a few pints of Guinness but, if it's not a spot with a decent pint, I'll go for G&T or a neat Brandy.

    Now you’re talking. Except for brandy. I like the top shelf whiskies more.

    Yeah those fruity pansys drinking beers with a much higher abv than Arthurs magic elixir.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 608 ✭✭✭Dalomanakora


    Whatever beer I fancy. Sometimes it's Heineken or similar, sometimes a craft beer. Occasionally a couple of cocktails or some wine.


    I wouldn't be much of a drinker anymore anyway so usually 3-4 drinks and I'm done.

    They're normally nicer but jaysus if you get one of those ***** that is mad into it and has the superiority complex to go with it...

    Alcohol free lager

    Oh yes, they can be insufferable.

    A fruity shakey drink for 7 quid??? More like a tenner...

    Used to enjoy a g&t to round off a few pints before they started putting it in those stupid glasses.

    That's a big part of the problem. I'd rather drink buckfast in a field with a pack of tinkers than hang out with the craft beer lads.

    usually Heineken.. but Guinness in the gravediggers...its pure nectar there :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭CrankyHaus


    It's all about mixing it up. Pint after pint would put me to sleep, much as I like Guinness and Lager. Nice to break the monotony with a G&T, a cocktail or even a vodka and redbull if I'm feeling tired.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 254 ✭✭davidglanza


    Pint bottle of bulmers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    One or two wines to start and then move to G&T after a while, not in those fishbowl glasses however. Could have a whiskey before home time. Nicely scuthered

    The craft beer lads are the type to wear ultra skinny jeans, nose ring along with ear rings, wear a pink shirt with flowers on it and smoke cannabis out the smoking area. I could call them many names but i’d get banned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,305 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    A glass of red wine if I'm having a meal out

    10 to 12 pints of porter. I like some of those pale ales as well, but they leave me with an arse like the brake light of a Massey Ferguson the next morning.

    A nice pot of tea.

    Used to drink Guinness when I could get a decent pint, but a decent pint is so hard to find these days that it’s just not worth it, so I drink Jack Daniels and coke, goes down grand.

    Heineken, bottles or pints depending on the place, some places in Cork, the pints are sh!te


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,357 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    On a full on barn-burner, 6-8 guinness followed by whiskies over ice, or 6-8 lagers followed by vodkas and white lemonade. Never shots. Those combos work well for me in terms of tolerances and recovery.

    Wine, gin, port, brandy, grand marnier, amaretto etc, only consumed around a meal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Sometimes a 7up but I do find the bubbles go straight to my head :D

    prosecco

    and appletinis


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,359 ✭✭✭stampydmonkey


    On a proper session..pints of blue moon or tiger and a few shots. Usually get out for a a cheeky bushing session at some stage during the events ..for that, the drink of choice would be le buckfast.. preferably chilled.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,784 ✭✭✭KungPao


    I can’t get enough of that wonderful Duff, Duff beer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,700 ✭✭✭Feisar


    Guinness, but it's a fairly unremarkable stout however it is what's available, sometimes Heineken.

    First they came for the socialists...



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,795 ✭✭✭dulux99


    Milk. Full fat. I go out to enjoy myself after all.


  • Registered Users Posts: 849 ✭✭✭IrishLad90


    Have come to accept that over the Xmas my choice of pint is now COORS and Gin :)
