it's a step up from bud/miller/coors any way.. not to mention the 28 racks usually come with a hockey puck, a hat, a shirt, grip tape, etc. they are like cereal box toys for adults.

edit: also had some free shots of this at the bar:

it's only 70 proof, where as jack is normally 80. it was pretty damn gross, i can't imagine it mixing too well with anything.. but it was free so

you're right, i'll drink any booze so long as it's free. it does sound nasty though. the reason i drink straight whiskey is because i DON'T want loads of sweet crap in my drink!

yeah, and jack is too sweet for me to begin with.

been into this lately:

super smooth. no need to mix but it makes for a hell of a whiskey ginger with a lime.

drank a load of lousy free box-wine last night at an art-school degree show. feel like my head is being split open with loud rocks. the loudest.

 

as for the farts - don't even ask.

Boxxy hangovers are the worst, man, the worst. I'm sorry.

Currently working on an Elijah Craig 12; really has to be one of the best value points in whisk(e)y.

sailor ..happy friday!

Jack Daniels because it was cheap

a jameson and sweet crap

I'm not going to buy this again. Not BAD, but not that good either. I'm sure some of you would love it.

WATER (from tap)

Picked a bottle of this up on a whim just because it looked tasty and I fancied something refreshing. Damn is it nice. Has the flavour without being overly sweet like most random ciders I pick up.

Holsten Pils - saw it in Sainsbury's today, I didn't think it was still going.

Gnommegang - delicious!

Red wine, a 2004 Carta Roja. It's OK.

Plymouth Gin, Schweppes Tonic + slice of lime

While finding that picture I saw this.

Has anyone had this or know where I can get it?!?!

i love this shit.

I hadn't drank since my surgery but had a couple glasses of a nice malbec from patagonia with the roasted veggie pasta I made. two thumbs up.

I've not had it, but: http://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/P-2276.aspx from one of my favourite London booze shops. Never had them deliver, but I'd trust em.

Nice one. I may head up there at some point. Could just order it I guess.

It's a great shop and I always walk out with something tasty - but it's worth calling them up and checking they have it on the shelf if you're planning on visiting. There's a bigger selection on the website than there is in the shop.
