Warning, this thread discusses alcohol.
To help celebrate the holidays, a thread devoted to all our favourite drinks.
For beer I normally buy Alexander Keiths, but I'll drink anything that isn't completely disgusting like most of the 1$ beers are.
Favourite shot would have to be liquid cocaine, although whisky is always fine by me.
Mixed drinks... I'm a big fan of 7&7, and also Rum & Coke. I also really enjoy whiskey on the rocks with a few drops of lime... good stuff.
What about you all?

Sake!
that's it, it's one of the few drinks I like and it doesn't give me hives. I also like it either hot or cold, not just hot^^
I only drink when I want to relax a little and I don't drink much, maybe a cup or two.

I had Sake once... it was good stuff. I should buy some next time I'm at the liquor store. What section would it be in?
My only Sake experience was drinking it cold at the beach. My buddy brought a bottle and we weighted it down in the water till it got cold.

sadly you'll have to ask the clerk, I get my sake at Trader Joe's and sadly not every TJ's carries sake.

Not sure what I'll drink this December, Sake by the way tastes good warm or cold, just affects you faster while warm.
I'll probably soak in a bottle of Tattoo...

Well, to go by your formula...
I enjoy my beer to be of the micro-brew variety, and anything Long Trail makes me happy. Guinness and Heineken get me by as well.
Favorite shot is the good ol' Irish Car Bomb: Guinness Jameson and Bailey's Irish Cream. You need to drink it fast though, unless you want the cream to curdle...
Mixed drinks, I'm a vodka man. While OJ and vodka to make your typical screwdriver is good, I actually prefer Lime juice over Orange.

Alex Keith's Red. If I'm feeling rich, a Black and Tan.
Shot would be Tequila, with lemon if I'm feeling like a baby.
I don't really drink any mixed drinks unless they're free. Of the ones I've had, I like them all (how could I not?).

Dr. Pepper mixed with Vanilla Coke is about as dangerous as I get.
I've had a couple sips of some mixed drinks one night that I got suckered into going barhopping downtown... Al-key-hawl ain't my sort of thing.

For beer? Guinness
For Mixer? Liquid Cocaine (1/3 Jaegermeisters 1/3 Goldschlager 1/3 Bicardi 151)
Shots? Rum. Tattoo preferably. Vodka failing that.

That's weird; around here liquid cocaine is half jaeger and half goldschlager. Goes down smooth and kicks like a mule.

I had 12 Sake bombs tonight and feel spectacular...
It's so warm, lovely and good. As good as Sake is however, my ultimate weakness is Patron. Thank goodness for Patron.

I myself rarely drink and never drink to get drunk. When I get drunk, I get dumb. And I loathe dumb people.
To clarify, I mean dumb as in a complete lack of common sense.
When I do drink, however, I'm more of a taster. I like red wine, preferably wine that is low on kick and high on sweetness.
As far as mix drinks go, I like anything with cranberry.
And I've always enjoyed the taste of rum.
Not much of a beer guy.

Well, I'll say a nice glass of Chardonnay would do me good. Something nice and dry. But... -ahem- ...maybe not all that often.
-blush-
Or maybe some nice Champagne.
Only not regularly.

If I'm at a bar I drink Keiths, hands down it's my favourite beer. But when I'm at home I drink a lot of wine, Two Oceans white wine to de exact. Yeah... I'm a big wino. I've lost track of the amount of wine induced judgements I've done.
At my friend Liz's house parties though I drink cocktails since she's a bartender and can mix them real easy for me. Like Sex on the Beach, Sex in the Desert, Margaritas and lots of other funky things I can't remember the name of.

I have started a policy of drinking Guinness, because without Guinness we wouldn't have the student's t test and statistics as we know it would not exist. Yes, I can turn drinking beer into something nerdy.

I don't mix drinks.
I prefer vodka.
Never mix, never worry. Or so says Martha. Of course, that doesn't save her from bringing up baby, does it?
I detest alcohol's taste and what it does to people in excess. Which is why I can only drink weak pussy drinks like Mike's Hard Lemonade, and sometimes the occasional sip of vanilla vodka (which cured my gingivitis.)
Wine is never fruity enough for me, although I have only tasted cheap stuff.
All the beer I've had is American, so it tastes like shit and water.
And Champagne to me is just more expensive beer. Again, I've only had cheap stuff.

Beer I don't really like. Just can't seem to develop a taste of the stuff (though not from lack of trying).
Favorite shot - anything.
Favorite mixed drink - vodka and sprite. Cheap but good.

If you like weak pussy drinks you should try bacardi breezers. They're like 4.5% alcohol and taste like really sugary juice.
I might take you up on that.
Of course, that's all hypothetical as I am underage.[/coveringhisass]
Not a fan of alcohol. I've only really drank once, and that was over a game of Super Mario World - basically, when you die, you take a shot, and when you beat a world, both people have to take a shot.
We didn't make it very far.
I drew the following conclusions about alcohol from that experience: beer sucks, vodka sucks slightly less, Captain Morgan's and orange juice sucks, and I don't remember if Captain's straight up is good or not.
Most alcohol I've ever had was like...in a quarter of a bottle of Dimetap when I was three. I loved that stuff. Not so much any more.
I can't even stand the smell of it enough to actually put any in my mouth, not to mention I'm still underage.

I happen to enjoy cheap American pisswater, so I drink Miller Lite for beer. When I was chilling in Richmond with Ithermoss, I had a can of Sapporo with my sushi and that was really good, too.
I shoot whiskey straight up. I'll decimate a bottle of Crown if not under careful supervision. I shoot tequila with lime. I think Goldshlager is the yummiest thing ever. Liquid cinnamon. Soo good. I was going back and forth between whiskey and Goldslager shots one fun night that ended with me punching some dude in a hotel room.
If I'm going with a mixed drink, I like most rum based drinks and tequila sunrises.
I am not allowed to drink vodka. I get mean, and make people cry.

All are variants of the others, hard to tell the original.

Guilty of underage drinking. But the legal age where I am is 21, so...
And Lucien, get off that cheap stuff! Wine and Champagne are suppose to last you no less than a month a bottle!

Favorite Althanas-themed Drinking Game: Whenever Letho gets a JC, take a shot!
That's the alcoholic's drinking game.
Artifex Felicis
12-19-07, 05:54 PM
I thought the alcoholic's drinking game was whenever there was a one night stand on Althanas.
Or whenever someone sits in the corner of a tavern/bar.
Or whenever stormtroopers miss an easy shot.
Or wheneevr Luke whines.

Alright, heres the official althanas drinking game.
Every time Letho gets a JC, take a shot.
Every time there is a one night stand, take a shot.
Every time Santhalas judges, take TWO shots.
Every time Serilliant busts in with a witty comment, take half a shot.
Every time Findlefin explains something, take three shots.
Every time I hit on a guy OOC, take a shot.
Pat, fuck me.

On my 21st birthday, Moonlit Raven and I were sitting half naked in her room, watching Godzilla 2000 and playing a drinking game that I barely remember. It was over two years ago...and we did a lot of drinking. We had to take a shot when Godzilla roared, knocked over a building and two shots when Matthew Broderick pointed out the obvious. Oh. We had to take some shots when he completely missed that chick hitting on him, and something about the awesome French dude. Um... I don't remember the other rules. The night ended with me so drunk I could barely undress and crawl into her bed, and I SWEAR on everything that is holy there was a midget sitting in the corner of the room looking at me. Jenn says there wasn't, and I was just drunk, but he was looking at me weird and it made it hard to go to sleep. I wish there was someone around for me to get that smashed with now. =(

I kinda stopped reading after "Moonlit Raven and I were sitting half naked in her room", but that sounds like an awesome, awesome game.
*spaces out for awhile*
I'm actually a big fan of movie/music drinking games. A great one is with Pulp Fiction-- you drink every time someone says fuck or a derivative of the word fuck. This actually works with most Tarantino films.
Another good one is with the song "Roxanne" by the police. You drink every time they say Roxanne. This game is also known as the get fucked up fast game.

Drinking games are awesome fun. I prefer them with horror movies because not only are you drunk, but you're a scared shitless drunk. Or a laughing-your-ass-off drunk.
I'm not a heavy drinker in the least, but I enjoy my fun from time to time. I'm a vodka girl... and I love Mojitos. Mmmmm, damn. Beer is not my forté - it's vile. Hard liquor all the way.

I'd rather take shots with the customers that I can throw back and throw away than deal with the glasses and bottles of beer that I have to lug around. And when you're workin', you don't have time for that crap.
Unless it's slow.
That's no fun.
