Beverages of choice


Jolt got me thinking, what beverage do you prefer when sobriety isnt an issue.... or to unwind after an epic sesh... local favorites, family recipies, or just your favorite hooch!

Beer: Fat Tire
Amber ale brewed nearby in ft. collins colorado... New Belgium brewing co actually makes some of the best beer i've ever had... if you get the chance, dont pass up a good fat tire
http://www.newbelgium.com/beer/fat-tire

Mixed Drink of choice:
Wild Turkey and coke... so d@mn good
http://www.wildturkeybourbon.com/

Or

Drew's Car Bomb
1 shot of an Irish whiskey called Knappague, mixed with a Guinness... it is evil how good it is... crazy good single malt whiskey
http://www.knappoguewhiskey.com/

Favorite holiday drink:
1 shot Favorite irish whiskey (Jameson works pretty well)
fill glass (i just use a 16-20ish oz glass) w/ equal parts egg nog and Coke
Sounds gross i know, but trust me and try it... its what a rootbeer float should taste like

These are a couple of my favorites, post up some of yours! Tis the season anyway... :smilegrin:

Non-alcoholic:
Pepsi(period)

I have had a redbull before my last two kite sessions and they both ended up being freaking awesome sessions... maybe I"m starting a habit. o.O

Bacardi + Coke + Lime.... sometime stray, but generally come back... expect there is as much nostalgia as anything else in the selection.

Well glad to see i started something, even though it might not be useful but I tend to be a connoisseur when it comes to liquor. I'll try anything once, and more if i like it.

As far as my favorites:

Beer:
I do enjoy the occasional Fat Tire every now and then, but If i had a choice I'd shoot for Dos Equis (Yes I can speak French in Russian). Being from Chicago I also do love our Goose Island 312. I also like Guinness Stout, and Sam Addams.

Mixed / Hard:
Personally me n my friends have come up with many personal mixes, of which if you guys ever get the chance I recommend you try either Black Label or Jack Daniels with Ginger Ale...
Like I said in my other thread, everyone has their "Gentleman" drink and mine just happens to be Cap'n'Coke, It taste's good and I like it.
I like taking a lot of shots, my birthday last month I ended up going to a club in the city, and had a wristband for free shots all night long, somehow I didn't get drunk, which is kinda odd, when i turned 21 last year, I don't remember the night.

Oh and adding something else to that, me n Trancein1 are at his hookah bar right now enjoying some Dos Equis...

I don't knwo how to embed a video onto the forum, never had to, but enjoy this video :wee:

Colorado has the best beers. I hit the fat tire brewery in march, it was awesome. My favorite beer is blue moon (golden Colorado).

I'm always down for pizza and beer after every session!

3/4 shot amaretto almond liqueur
1/4 oz 151 proof rum
1/2 glass beer

1. Fill a shot glass about 3/4 full with amaretto and top it off with enough 151 proof rum to be able to burn.

2. Place the shot glass in another glass and fill the outer glass with beer (right up to the level of the shot glass).

3. Ignite the amaretto/151 and let it burn for a while. Blow it out (or leave it burning if you're brave - not recommended) and slam it. Tastes just like Dr. Pepper.

I have a Kokanee land board and they sent me a snowboard, so, I drink alot of Kokanee.

But, I'm also an honorary member of the whitewater paddling Team Pabst. So I drink alot of that too.

My neighbor is a Budweiser sales man and gave me a Michelob Golden Light board he wants me to ride..

Man, I drink alot of cheap beer, and it tastes real good after kiting since it's mostly water anyway!

Yeah, I like Tanqueray and tonic.
I have a great Bloody Mary recipe that is good enough I can't order one in a bar any more.
Yuengling beers (light, lager, black and tan)
Fat Tire, Newcastle, Corona
Corsendonk Belgian beer for special occasions.

Soft drink is Mountain Dew with Dr. Pepper a distant second, then pepsi as a generic soda.
Monster energy drinks with an Amp from time to time (for the flavor since I don't seem to actually get a kick from them.)
I don't drink coffee at all.

I'll ad lib best I can, but I'll have to look it up at home to get the quantities.
Mr. T's Bloody Mary mix.
High quality vodka (just enough, too much makes it bitter)
Worcestershire sauce
celery salt
horseradish sauce
tabasco sauce
fresh ground black pepper
Dill pickles work great as a garnish too.

i like ipa beers... most people dont tho, too much bite...
And for everyone that likes gin (i am not one... very bad experience when i was younger :megan: ) try bombay sapphire... i hate gin, but last time i was in pheonix, i had a salty dog that may make me change my mind about gin...

Fresh picked grapefruit (30 seconds off the tree), some bombay sapphire, dash of salt... omg! :o Best gin drink EVAR!!!

If you are ever in Denver, co... there is an english pub type bar right down town, a block east of the art museum IIRC. And they brew a beer there that is Nitrogen carbonated like Guinness, but it isnt pressurized like normal beer.. they have to hand pump it from the cask in the basement... That little pub is awesome! mmmm brown gravy and french fries.. lol good times in colorado
