Drinks that should be left in the bottle

The above was quoted over in the Internet forum. I can only agree. However, it's not the worst. Top of the drinks that should should have been strangled at birth must surely be Bailey's Cream. Amaretto may be acceptable under the Italian sunshine, but should not be brought back home. Grappa may be let out of the bottle, but only for use as an emergency paint stripper.

Any flavour of aftershock for me. Makes me :sick: and I don't mean through a hangover.

Bailey's is delicious! If only it wasn't so fattening :P

Beer. Beer should be throttled at birth, it's disgusting. Blokes only drink it because they think they're supposed too and don't want to be different from everyone else.

Yep Baileys for me too, original or Glide :tu:

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
forgot about Cinzano Bianco.....agree totally there

Maggy 28-02-2004 20:10

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
The worst drink is always the fine white wine that your 'wine buff' friend insists on buying at the restaurant, that tastes like cat pee but because you ain't a wine buff you have to either agree(and drink more of it),or disagree and it's implied you know nothing about wine.

I may not be a wine buff but I have a very good palate for all sorts of drinks and food and I know when something tastes disgusting.I do not need a label to tell me something is good. :rolleyes:

homealone 28-02-2004 20:18

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
I don't like (of those I've tried)

Aftershock Cinnamon
Baileys
Sweet white wine (e.g. Sauternes)
Gin
Advocaat
Drambuie
CrÃÃâ€*’©me de Menthe
Lager (Bitter is ok)
Asti :sick:mante

and while I quite like Whisky - it doesn't like me. (so I stick to Brandy or Tequila;) )

Xaccers 28-02-2004 20:24

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
Hmm, all this talk of baileys..... :drool:

Lets see, because I killed a server last night, I don't have to patch it's sister...
I'm not driving tomorrow...
Right! I'm off to tescos to get some baileys :) (don't tell the boss!)

.....anyway, back on topic.....Underberg, Cherry Brandy, Special Brew, Rigas Balzams (not that anyone here would know that one), any mainstream lager brewed in the UK, Absinthe and pretty much any funny colourless spirit that you bring home from holiday (unless it's Vodka). :D

First time I ever drank it was at MacDonalds because some pillock said it was good :sick: I tried it again from a bottle because I thought that perhaps they had left cleaning fliud in the pipes at McD's.:sick:

I still can't see how anyone could like something that tastes of Germolene.:sick:

That stuff you get in "Blobs" from Yates Wine lodge, I think it's Australian White Wine or something like that. :sick:

My avatar says it all ;)

Altho someone did once ask "Are you a bitter drinker?"

To which I replied "No, just slightly cynical"

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
Bacardie and coke............ horrible muck, ever since I got shedded on it when I was about 15 even the smell of someone else drinking it near by is enough to make me :sick:

Some of those real ales are pretty gross too

Some of my mates tried Pernod in cider for the night, one of them ended up jumping in the canal.(from the road bridge, 30ft drop)pillock.
The landlord then banned anyone from getting that mix in his pub for ever. :eek:

Some of my cornish friends used to drink ouzo(sp) :sick: , they called it weasel cos that is what they felt like in the morning.

Personally anything goes except alcopops and Gin.
Favourites of mine are JD, Jim Beam, Southerncomfort, Johnny walker, Smirnoff, any lager and worthy creamflow.

Re: Drinks that should be left in the bottle
 
heres my personal opinion on alchohol
some drinks taste gross neat but yummy mixed.......bacardi , gin , bols etc
some drinks taste yummy neat but gross mixed.......vodka , tequila , absinthe etc
some drinks just taste gross neat or mixed........whisky , rum ,brandy , jd , jb etc
some beers taste yummy ice cold......carlsberg , bud , rolling rock etc
some beers just need tipping down the sink...pedigree , newky , guiness etc
some wines taste yummy red or white......french , cape etc
some wines taste gross whatever colour......english , usa , oz etc
all in all my personal faves for a nights drinking are...carlsberg followed by bacardi breezers with a shot of absinthe for a nightcap
hmmmmm im thirsty now

Alcopops & Gin? In the same glass? :sick:

One drink I should definately leave in the bottle even though (or perhaps because) I like it is Vodka Mudshoot. I love it, unforetunately it makes me violently :sick:

If anyone is wondering what it is, it is basically like an alcoholic chocolate milkshake.
