I'll drink whatever I can get my hands on when I'm skint.

When I've got enough money to choose I tend to stick to stella, but I'm partial to a cheap bottle or red to start the night - especially if drinking at home when you've just bought stella from the shop but it hasn't been in the fridge, that way you can drink the red while some stella quickly cools in the freezer.

I tend to prefer spirits neat. Specially vodka - v.cold. Normally this means ice, but I prefer it without if vodka has been in the freezer. Lovely, all though I tend to drink it in rather large portions - which can result in a very drunk ben.

If I am going to mix vodka with something then I went through a stage of vodka and lemon fanta. Lovely drink. You can get away with stupid ratio's of vodka as well. Near 1:1.

I like vodka, mix it with anything, cheap way of getting drunk if you get a litre bottle for a tenner or so.

Stellas good but getting bored of it, Carling at £1.25 a pint is worth it, any more its not.

Sambuca's nice, white wine also and San Miguel.

Post by: McLovin on Friday, June 10, 2005, 08:26:33
My usual choices:

White wine - feeling classy
Stella - after payday
Fosters - cheap alternative
Guinness - when in the mood
Wadsworth 6X - if they sell it
Worthy Creamflow - when i'm on an all day drinink sesh

Havana Club dark rum, with lime Pepsi Max is my short of choice at the moment, but it's a common occurrence for me to be drinking vodka (with lemonade), Southern Comfort (with ice), or JD (with coke)

Agree with Yeovil about the PImms, bloody gorgeous, especially sat in your garden on a nice hot summres day.  My favourite drink though is Southern Comfort.  Either straight or with lemonade and ice depending on my mood.

I'm getting old. It used to be Fosters, but now that is too gassy and gives me a head ache so I go for Tetleys/6x/John Smiths/Worthingtons x 5 then switch to JD & coke. Still have the odd lager on a hot day though

I hope to progress through to only drinking real ale and then onto the piece de resistance, half a mild.

the common limit on Green Shit is thought to be 4-5 pints, although the other week a few of us managed 6-7 and can recall very little to nothing of the events that followed.

If I'm just having a couple then it's usually Stella, otherwise Carling Cold.

If I'm in Revolution then I go for Staupramen, because it's bloody lush.

Also a special mention has to go to:

Guiness
Real Ale - Theakstons if poss
Very rarely a draght bitter
Snakey B  :D
Carling Premier, if anywhere has it these days.  Used to be my favourite drink in the world.

If I'm in the mood for a spirit then it's either rum (white, or dark, I'm not fussy) and diet coke, or Southern Comfort and diet coke.  I also have to give a big shout out to the flaming Sambuca.

Oh, and finally I love red wine.  White wine is rubbish. :twisted:

That's not a turbo shandy.

That's a bloody nitro shandy! :shock:

I only put the Smirnoff Ice in it, never had the double vodka aswell, reckon that would send me over the edge.

I quite like neat vodka as well but it'd probably kill me now.

Being honest I'm not that fussy with my drink as long as it's not too expensive. I went through a huge vodka and red bull phase when they were £1 last year. The problem with that is they only gave you a dash of red bull :?
Put 5 in a pint glass and you're fooked after 4pints of them, although admitedly I would sometimes drink 6  :oops:

i'll drink anything depending on my mood. i'll usually drink lager - stella, fosters, kronenburg, calrsberg. however, recently i've become a fan of gl, although most of the other ciders just aren't worth it. unless it's one of those 7.5% jobbies they do in a couple of places in town. bitters fine when other people are paying, i wouldn't actually cough up for it myself. real ales are good when i'm pissed and i'm with a certain crowd - usually cricket lads. vodka is always good when i'm getting hammered with my non-cricket mates. white wine is very nice, although i have to be very pissed and usually having a curry to order a bottle of red. in fact the only thing i don't like is those shitty bitters - boddingtons, john smiths, tetleys.
