Damn just by reading these post makes me want to go to happy hour!
As for me on what I drink before I go out, I like to drink Kettle One with Hawaiin punch. it taste really good. once i get to a club if its going to be a night where i have to be up all night I go with the redbull and kettle one. If its going to be a quick night and I need to get really tossed then I will go with chivas reagal on the rocks. And If I just want to drink tequila I go with don julio, or patron, both of these are very smooth and tasty.

redbull and vodka in London on average was costing about 8 bucks usd, and that was a single then again anywhere outside of a hostel or hidden pub required an arm and a leg to get a buzz. Be careful when drinking in London, the funds can whither with a quickness.

Dr Pepper has to be the best drink to mix with it goes decently with all liquor my favorite is Dr P with Tequila but its nice with capt morgan too. If im broke and drinking beer Id have to say natural ice is the way to go, its not much on flavor but it gives a good quick buzz.

Alright PARTY Time,
Although I don't spend too much of my life sharing time with the bottle I have my true favorites.
Beer: Not much of a beer drinker, so I don't go cheap. I like Guiness, Sam Adams Cherry Wheat (Tap only), Killian's Red, a few others that I only remember when I had a few.
Liquor: Shotwise, Tequila (Don Eduardo, Cuervo 1800), Vodka, Jagermeister (as cold as possible), Galliano <sp?>
Drinks: Jagerbomb, Absolute Lemonade, Long Island, Violent Fuck, others that have no name.
By the way, are you allowed to send liquor home from europe? Cause I sure would like to get my friends some exotic liquor for them to remember me by.
Alright, that's all.
Just an observation, this place seems to be filled with drinking and sex :P What a bunch of unruly people

Beer: Old Speckled Hen, Fullers ESB are my faves.
Liquor: Gin (Bombay Sapphire), Jameson
Shots: Mezcal
This is the ideal list. Depending on the budget, I'll drink just about anything.

Q. What does american beer and havin sex in a canoe have in common ? A. Its fuckin close to water
mwahahhahahaha
For hard stuff Vodka is really bad, I had a thing with that 6 years ago and Im done, whiskey in a dirty glass thats the way too go, wow you can tell im from northern Canada eh. Capitan morgans spiced rum is super as well, and mix that all with a little coke Im a happy man. But when its just for sittng back nothing like a Pina Colda ohhhhhh yeah
Hey has anyone ever had a Mai Thai 2, had one in a bar in Dresden a few years ago, cost 8 bucks came in like a half leter glass, and one glass got me finished I was impressed, tastes like the dogs arse but wow I was so rocked, then I went out and hit a few more bars and I woke up the next day in my friends house with soeone elses shirt on hehe sweet night

Well I will agree with the "American beer sucks" for the most part. But we do have our micro brews and such that do put out some nice beers. Here in detroit we have one that serves up a few good dark beers. mmmm... the darker the better.
Have any of you had a beer called Sami-Klaus? I think its from Germany. They bottle it one day a year on like December 10, and then ship it later. It finishes fermenting in the bottle. It's a very high proof beer. It's pretty good.
I forgot about good ol, Long Island Iced Teas.

Ok, it took me long enough to find this thread, now lets see if I can remember the name of the beer.
It goes something like... Sinebrykhofe. hmmm... close but not quite... anyways it's a finnish beer, the oldest brewery in finland. It is a nice dark beer with a slight chocholate taste. Very tasty.
I had a czeck beer too.. but I don't remember the name, it starts with an S... as I am sure some of you have had it. It seemed good too. Although I would prefer to buy it there since it was $3 a bottle here. ack! Oh well I am going back next week when I get paid to test out more international beers, I must study in time for my trip :D
and of course Guinness still rocks.
Mead is good... tastes like honey.
French Kamikazie's are so juice tasting you could keep drinking them and not know you were drinking alcohol... well tell you got the buzz. mmmmm.... yes.
Damn... there was another one... I will have to remember in the morn. Goodnight y'all.

In Greece I had a shooter called an Orgasm...Funny coz you had to ask the barman: 'An orgasm please...' We paid the barman one as well (My friend does that all the time: spot a nice barman, pay him a few drinks...Then you get many privileges in the bar and the barman will pay you give you a few drinks for free...heheh ). Anyways, the barman said something like: Ok, ladies, will you have it in the backstore?!?!? Then looked at me and said: I bet you want all 3 of them. Hahah! Ok, just that I thought maybe Adam you could find a few original names for your nice drinks. And, I'll have one of those ginger ale things please!
A barmaid at my brother's bar always makes this drink for me, it's called a Coco-cognac: In a tall glass, a bit of Tia Maria and as much Cognac, then fill the glass with milk and ice, add a cherry or two and also a straw....Tastes good and gets you drunk before you know it!
