Desert Island VII Master List, Part Four

[onebloodonelife]

After a very bad night involving me and 7 shots of UV Blue in 45 minutes which ended in my curling around the toilet all night, vodka and I just don't agree with each other. Ugh, just thinking about it makes my stomach clench up in revolt.

 

[the tourist]

Personally, I go for the rum.

 

[PhilsFan]

My worst night with vodka ended in my roommate returning home and finding my passed out in the absolute center of the room after vomiting in our trash can, but I'm 95% sure that was because I had spoiled milk with dinner that night.

 

[onebloodonelife]

Ha, I was going to add that if I'm drinking liquor (which is rare these days), it's rum. Just can't go wrong with a rum and Coke.

 

[PhilsFan]

I did not enjoy Jack and Coke (I know it's whiskey) when I had it, but it was also my first night drinking after a horrid Halloween, which I will not even begin to describe here. It's worth giving it a second chance, is my point.

 

[the tourist]

Speaking of rum and coke, one of my new favourite adult beverages involves pineapple rum and cherry coke. Good stuff.

It's also from Wisconsin, and seeing as I'm originally from there as well, I have to rep the home state beer. For cheap stuff, anyway. If I were choosing decent Wisconsin beer, New Glarus Spotted Cow, all the way. But, that's ONLY available within the state, which poses a problem.

I had New Glarus Fat Squirrel once. Awesome.

Ooh, that does sound good. I was a fan of raspberry vodka and Cherry Coke for awhile there.

I still haven't had Fat Squirrel...but I'm going home next month. I think that'll be an ideal time to give it a try.

oh man, if only we still had cherry coke here. feijoa vodka and diet coke with lemon doesn't quite have the same appeal.

No. In fact, that doesn't sound appealing to me at all. And WHY do you not have cherry coke???

 

[bono_212]

I tried it in a very expensive restaurant in the Milwaukee Airport.

 

[coolian2]

And WHY do you not have cherry coke???

i have no idea. i do miss raspberry coke. five years and i still haven't found anything as nice.

 

[onebloodonelife]

And WHY do you not have cherry coke???

This was also my immediate thought. I'd have serious problems if there was no Cherry Coke here...

Nice, I'll probably just get a six-pack, cause I'm not classy enough for expensive restaurants.

In some of the chain-store brands of soda, you can find raspberry cream here. But I don't remember raspberry cola.

As I recall, it was pretty alcoholic as beers go at that.

it only ever existed in new zealand, and for all of five months at that. it was the greatest cola to ever exist.

 

[onebloodonelife]

Yep, 5.8%, in fact, according to my Googling skillz.

Oh jeez!

Well, if you're nerdy enough to care, I've got a few pics of it on facebook if you're that interested in the aspects of beer.

I'm sure you could recreate it with a cola and raspberry syrup.

I was just curious, since you said it was higher than normal. And, I've seen it, almost bought it a couple of times, even, but just haven't gotten around to it, so it's all good. Another month of suspense won't kill me.

 

[bono_212]

I got a tad tipsy off of one, and I'm not exactly a light-weight...more like, lower-middle-weight.

 

[coolian2]

this is true. i'll try to remember that next time i'm shopping.

 

[onebloodonelife]

Haha, oh great, I'm probably considered a lightweight...like fairly tipsy off a few PBRs. Well, it looks like I'll have a good time at my sister's grad party, then.

 

[The Sad Punk]

It was in Australia too, and yeah, that shit was insane. Nothing will ever compare.

Someone chuck a PBR this way, I've never seen them here.

Ashley, you should try that 32% beer that came out in Scotland a few months ago.

 

[bono_212]

wwhoa, wait, where can I find this?!

 

[coolian2]

It was in Australia too

what? wikipedia inaccurate?

The World's Strongest Beer: Tactical Nuclear Penguin

It also has the best name I've ever heard for a beer.

 

[The Sad Punk]

Seriously, I think it is. Because I have very fond memories of a raspberry cola back in about 03/04. I think I mixed it with port once.

Um yes. So. Need.

makes sense, it probably was around then. i couldn't even begin to imagine mixing port with anything.
