when youre out for a quiet drink, or on a massive bender.
Go.
Desperados or Tequila and Tonic plz.
usually beer or microbrews, occasionally captain and coke
sometimes a nice reflective glass of scotch
spiced or dark captain?
Bourbon and diet
But I will pretty much drink anything.
I have never found that diet makes a difference.Quote:

you tried sailor jerry?
98 proof, nicest drink ive ever had, really nice spiced rum
Haha yes, in college when I couldn't afford captain morgan.Quote:

Not surprisingly, their quality of taste also relates to their price.
edit: I had some good spiced rum in Antigua, called Cavalier. It was cheap as dirt down there but on par with Sailor Jerry.
i rate sailor jerry higher than captain morgan :)
what do you do with a drunken sailor (jack)
fill him with rum and lie him in his bunk
then give him a cuddle and tuck him in
I dont care for the cherry flavor in it.Quote:

i havent really had much old new orleans,i want to buy a bottle but its really hard to get here
i tried the cajun spice when i was over in the US and loved it but havent had it since (i like rum..a lot)
If I want to get drunk, I usually drink vodka and fruit juice. When I just want a beer, I go for Shiner Bock Black Lager.

Beer or rye and coke/ginger or straight rye.
Holy fucking shit I swear that I made this fucking post like...DAYS ago. LIKE exactly this.Quote:

I only take jello shots.
Less sugar and fewer calories :)Quote:

Steel Reserve.
Liquor is Captain Morgan and Coke if I cannot find Sailor Jerry's.
Today, however, will be Guinness, Killian's and Whiskey.
southern comfort and coke
or just straight up southern comfort, its like candy
Beer for regular nights.
Makers Mark and coke or Gentlemans Jack and lemon water for special occasions.
Jack and Coke.
Otherwise, a good single malt scotch.
lol you have got to be shitting meQuote:

We call it lemonade too.
I thought lemonade was something different over there. And wikipedia agrees.
Whereas over here lemonade is:Quote:
In the U.S. and Canada lemonade refers to a mixture of lemon juice, sugar, and uncarbonated water.
So ours is fizzy, yours is (apparently) not. Soco and a non-fizzy mixer would taste disgusting.Quote:
Likewise, in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand the term mainly refers to a colourless, carbonated, sweet soft drink containing either natural or artificial lemon flavor, such as Schweppes Lemonade.
Oh nevermind I didn't know that.
Well you should have more faith in my abilities at pointing things out for dumbasses.
in his defense, the less sugar part probably works outQuote:

Sailor Jerry's kicks the shit out of Captain Morgan, unless you don't like the cherry flavor, I guess. Capt. Morgan is a pretty bad brand of rum in general, in fact. It's like the Smirnoff of rums.
Budget/Healthy drink: Vanilla smirnoff and pepsi max
a shit ton of caff in it too
Yuengling.
Or vodka cranberry.
No defense for that, it is an inexcusable act of faggotry. If you want to avoid a hangover drink some water before passing out. Then at least you(most likely) will not get a headache of any kind and we all know that's the worst part(unless you are the kind who pukes in the morning).Quote:

If I ever work in a bar (I have done and probably will do again soon) I would never give someone in any uniform a freebie. I've met too many people who only do it for the free drinks.
Hahah, I don't think you've EVER met anyone who joined the military only "for the free drinks". You may have assumed that someone you've met joined the military for that reason, but if you did, you were probably wrong.Quote:

Ohhhh. Yeah, that doesn't surprise me so much. Sorry 'bout the mixup.
Right now I'm drinking rum and A&W rootbeer.
Bourbon and root beer is a damn good combination, beats the hell out of a bourbon and coke imo. I can only imagine it's equally good with rum.Quote:

WTF is thisn cherry shit?Quote:

Beer. But I hate that it gives me a gut when I drink it every night for a straight week.
For the record, there is nothing wrong with looking shit hot in your uniform, but getting free drinks because of it is bullshit, especially if thats the reason your wearing it.Quote:

there isnt any cherry in it but the vanilla/lime combonation gives it a cherry tasteQuote:

I drink what's available. I generally prefer light or dark rum and pale ales but will try anything once and drink plenty of the special.
As for the uniform thing, I've never put on a uniform for the express purpose of going out to drink. Anyone who does is a jackass. I have stopped by bars or the VFW while in uniform. Then again, I've probably gotten more free drinks from people talking to me while out of uniform. One or two is nice from time to time but I prefer to pay for my own. When you are driving and stop off for a beer, it becomes a pain in the ass when the bartender keeps setting bottles in front of you. Now, the case of beer at a grocery store was both unexpected and more than welcome...
On that thought, my brother-in-law did go out drinking with my brother once while he was in the Reserves. Not in uniform but according to my brother he couldn't keep his military ID in his wallet. Then he went active, deployed to Iraq and last I heard had come home on leave and not gone back. Probably too busy bragging about being in the Army at some bar. At least they stopped his pay last I heard.
Sailor Jerry's has a pretty noticeable cherry undertone. It's not strong, but it's definitely there.Quote:

For instance, it's what most soldiers wear even if they are just going to be sitting behind a desk all day. The Army's current policy is that the ACU is used in both combat and informal non-combat situations. So if this is what he was wearing, he wasn't actually going around trying to look like a hardass by being in "combat gear", he was just wearing the uniform that soldiers normally wear when not at a formal occasion.Quote:

A bar that I've gone to a few times invented a new shot and it was so bad, it was Jagger with something else, but you dipped a cherry in pepper first and yeah.. not good.
no this was before the ACU. it was the DCU, the coffee stains one.
i mean, even that would be fine but the guy had a tactical jakcet on over the regular jacket as well as his riggers belt with a load of kit in it, which he definately wouldnt need in Disneyland.
