For me it goes on vodka, vodka and beer.. and beer. It may sound kind of lame, but i drink mainly to get drunk and enjoy the feeling and the change it brings me :D There are only a few alcoholic drinks i enjoy the taste of, it's beer and martini! I love vodka, because it simply have no real addition but the innevitability of alcohol, are easy to mix, and are cheap (by the way, in Norway 1 liter of vodka costs about 90 dollars) in comparison to others. I honestly wouldn't touch alcohol if it wasn't for the purpose of simply tasting it or to get drunk. I enjoy the social aspect of getting drunk with pals, and play games, or enjoying it for myself by seeing the effects close handed. It feels awesome! Beer i drink simply because i think it tastes great, and is a great way of getting "socially" drunk :D Basicly i like the feeling of beeing drunk, and i enjoy every moment of the process. So i enjoy alcohol, but as opposed to some, i don't really enjoy the taste of most of it. I really respect people who do however. It's neither classy nor is it of fine taste! It's just the human nature of seeking weird mind things for me! | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/6tXC2.jpg) I live in Oregon (NW United States) so I get to experience a huge variety of amazing beer, wine, and spirits. This is one of my absolute all-time favorite beers. It is always good no matter the time of day, the weather, my mood, what band is playing, ect. There is another espresso stout from a local brew pub in town that is monster delicious. But stouts are not my go-to beverage when I am drinking a lot. It is too unhealthy (I generally have a low carb diet so a lot of carbs really fucks with me) Instead, I go with the good ol Gin, Soda water, Lime. I can drink those all night and will wake up relatively un-hungover (unless I also opt to swing by the 24 mexican food place) On May 11 2012 08:24 darthfoley wrote: European beers >>>>> American beers (aka "... Light") I honestly feel otherwise. You just need to live in the right places to experience the best beers. Come to one of Oregons many brew fests and your mind will be expanded by the wonder and delight that is the microbrew. All of Americas national beers really suck. Really really suck. Stuff like blue moon...that is meh at best. Windemer is getting nationally recognized and it has some good things going for it but still. Euro beer vs American beer is really like comparing 2 different styles and approaches to making beer. American beer is very experimental vs the mostly traditional European beer. I admit I have not had the joy of experiencing the slew of top-tier European beers but from what I have tasted and what coworkers have shared, I don't think there will be any beer in Europe that will absolutely blow me away. Sure, there will be fucking amazing beer but nothing warranting 5 'greater than' signs. | ||

Liquor is kinda the same, but I can tolerate it if I mix it with stuff. I'll be able to tell the difference between shots of this or that, but I will never ever say "Oh, that burning sensation in my mouth and throat really tastes good." As with beer, I'll still drink it from time to time because I enjoy the buzz, but I will never celebrate the taste. Unless it's in a girly drink. Give me a sour mix cocktail, a very manly daquiri, or some bailey's and I'm basically good to go. I can also enjoy a good wine from time to time, but only with meals designed to compliment them. A wine by itself, I can't really enjoy, but a red wine with some tunafish can be delicious. I'm not a wine snob so I couldn't tell you what's what but I've had some good experiences, at weddings or whatever. | ||

I can buy a 1.5L of Grey Goose for about $55 USD It's true. 400 NOK for a liter :D Also the places you can buy anything else than beer is a special shop only located in some (but many) cities, and are open to 5pm and 3pm on saturday. I don't complain, but i find the differences in politics here interessting. The weird thing is that i can go to denmark and get it for a fourth of the price at about any store .D | ||

I have immense respect for you my friend. I do not have the patience to brew my own wine, I tried my hand at brewing beer and it ended horribly. | ||

Commercials, peer pressure, ignorance, etc... For me, a good chocolate stout is one of the best things around, followed by probably IPA. | ||
