Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.09 19:44:00 - [1] - Quote I can't sit down for a dust session without a tasty beverage. It can take the edge off a match where your blueberries just aren't helping things. And it's delicious. I'm a scotch fan myself, preferring the Highland single malts - particularly anything by Balvenie. I just picked up a bottle of the Doublewood 17 year...fantastic, on the pricey side. Also very nice is the Springbank 18, which is out of Campbeltown, and probably my second favorite. Anybody have any ones they love that aren't peaty? And if not scotch, what do you drink to ease the pain of the BB who hops in your LAV and starts shooing at rail gun installations?
Sete Clifton PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 67	Posted - 2013.02.10 21:07:00 - [2] - Quote For me it's definitely a good beer. I usually go for local Chicago beers like Goose Island (though it's national now), Three Floyds (technically Indiana but whatever), Revolution, Half Acre, etc. I also like Lagunitas, Rogue, Fat Tire, Blue Moon, Sam Adams and a bunch of others.
Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.10 22:43:00 - [3] - Quote I grew up a little south of Boston. I don't drink a ton of beer but I do love me some Sam Adams. The sell a cool 12 pack right now, the Winter Thaw pack, a nice mix of their seasonal brews....all great!

Nice, right now I've got some of their winter beers in the fridge (noble pils, winter lager, white christmas, and the whitewater ipa). I've been neglecting them a bit, but I'll have to open one next time i'm playing Dust.
Grenwal Hiesenberg Shadow Company HQ 223	Posted - 2013.02.10 23:43:00 - [5] - Quote HOMEBREW!! I've also been known to drink lots rum, preferably from the freezer but it could be over ice ( not too much, don't wanna water it down). Cider (farmhouse style) has to be one of my all time favs though, it's amazing what you can do with just apples and yeast.
Vaerana Myshtana ScIdama Endless Renaissance 198	Posted - 2013.02.11 00:27:00 - [6] - Quote Rum and Coke. Often Malibu and Coke, but sometimes Captain and Coke. Of course, I rarely pass up the Porto or Cider if proffered.
Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.11 03:09:00 - [7] - Quote Vaerana Myshtana wrote: Rum and Coke. ^this as well As I've gotten older, I've gone away from the sweeter, cheaper "hangover boozes", but captain I can always enjoy. The private stock too, gooooood! I currently live up in Washington state, where the liquor prices are awful. I'm down in Vegas this weekend, enjoying buying captain for 14 bucks a bottle, and no tax at the Nellis air force exchange! I pay 27 bucks for that in WA. I do like a good cider too. I like the less sweet stuff, Strongbow is probably my favorite so far. I've dabbled in the homebrew, once for beer, which I messed up and it came out like a watered down Icehouse (even possible?). Once for wine as well which came out better, but still no better than a bottle of two buck chuck.

Sandromin Hes Sand Mercenary Corps Inc. 204	Posted - 2013.02.12 00:00:00 - [10] - Quote ^ You're allowed to homebrew in most states. You just can't sell it. It has to be for personal consumption.

It's only illegal to distribute. It's definitely legal to produce, but not legal to sell without permits.
Sete Clifton PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 67	Posted - 2013.02.12 00:23:00 - [12] - Quote In most states, you can brew beer, or make wine, ciders, and mead for private consumption. Distillation (hard alcohol) is illegal without a permit just about everywhere as far as I know.
McFurious BetaMax. 67	Posted - 2013.02.12 00:45:00 - [13] - Quote I don't drink anymore but if I did I'd probably drink a whole lot of Guinness. Sam Adams is my second favorite though.
Polish Hammer Conspiratus Immortalis 300	Posted - 2013.02.12 01:18:00 - [14] - Quote I prefer darker beers. We have a local brew from a company called Empyrean called Darkside Vanilla Porter.....IT'S SO GOOD.....SO GOOD andthenIjizzedinmypants.jpg

Grenwal Hiesenberg Shadow Company HQ 223	Posted - 2013.02.12 05:18:00 - [17] - Quote Distillation =/= homebrewing, BIG difference, though you can 'still a bad batch of beer (or anything). Ice distillation might be legal (depending on locale) if you keep it within 1% of the original volume.
General Tiberius1 ZionTCD Legacy Rising 205	Posted - 2013.02.12 05:23:00 - [18] - Quote so long as you don't get caught, you can distill whatever you want. specially in Texas, law officers don't give a damn if you aint selling

Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.12 06:41:00 - [20] - Quote Polish Hammer wrote: Blind Nojoy wrote: I'm a scotch fan myself, preferring the Highland single malts - particularly anything by Balvenie. PLZ SHARE YOUR SINGLE MALTS My everyday drinker is the Balvenie Doublewood 12yr. And I've found anything by balvenie to be great so far, so I have been slowly building my collection. I got a bottle of the Portwood 21 year before Christmas. Really good but I did a blind taste test of that and about 15 other scotches, the one I liked best was the balvenie 15 single barrel. Then the Springbank 18, then the Portwood. But honestly they were tough choices, could have gone either way! I also like the balvenie Caribbean cask, try that if you can find it. It's a 14 year and they finish the maturation in rum casks. This is making me thirsty. Some of my other favorites are Dalwhinnie 15 and Glenlivet 18. I don't like peaty stuff, so I avoid the laphroaigs and lagavulins, and most stuff from around that area. I also don't like Macallan, I think it's too spicy and overpriced.

Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.12 06:53:00 - [21] - Quote Oh another non-scotch spirit I've been telling all my friends about is the Crown Royal Maple Finished, only runs about 25 bucks, smells sweet like maple syrup, but the taste is not overly sweet. Goes good on rocks, or mixed with just about anything. I do like cigars as well, in my travels I've had the chance to pick up a Cuban or two. They kick you in the ass, but I think I prefer Dominican stogies over the Cubans. I really like the Ashton VSG, they always cost a lot in stores but sometimes you can get a good deal online. I like the macanudo gold label as well and if I ever want something different I go with the acid kuba kuba.
Scalesdini Universal Allies Inc. 57	Posted - 2013.02.12 15:55:00 - [22] - Quote Nobody on this game drinks cognac? Explains why you're all such baddies. Reminds me that I need to go buy another bottle of 1738.

General Tiberius1 ZionTCD Legacy Rising 205	Posted - 2013.02.14 05:56:00 - [27] - Quote live in Texas only stuff commonly available is whiskey, american swill(light beer) and taquila(though i do like taquila) need more variety i know the other stuff exists here, but hard to find and expensive(fat tire is anywere from 17 to 23 bucks for a six)
Booby Tuesdays THE DOLLARS 13	Posted - 2013.02.14 06:16:00 - [28] - Quote If I were to compare my beers to my Dropsuits, my Starter would be PBR, my Type I would be Labatt Blue, Type II would be a 5 Barrel or Fat Tire, Type III would be a Guinness, and my Proto/Officer would be Mountain Standard from Odell's. Nectar of the God's I tell you!
Grenwal Hiesenberg Shadow Company HQ 223	Posted - 2013.02.15 02:02:00 - [29] - Quote General Tiberius1 wrote: american swill(light beer) need more variety i know the other stuff exists here, but hard to find and expensive(fat tire is anywere from 17 to 23 bucks for a six) A great reason to homebrew. There are a lot of clone recipes( pun intended ) that are available online that will get you close at a fraction ($.50-$.75) a bottle. The main problem is it takes precious video game time, but it could be something to do after you cap for the week .
Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.15 23:52:00 - [30] - Quote Someone turned me onto a rum called Flor de Cana a few years ago which I really enjoy, although I haven't seen it here in WA, I had no problem finding it in Pensacola. I like the one called Pyrat. It's not expensive but to me tastes like it should be. I like tequilas as well, but moreso the anejos that you can sip on, they taste more like scotch to me than anything. The silvers that go in margaritas, I don't like shooting them. Don Julio anejo is pretty good, I usually hate anything Cuervo, but their familily reserve anejo is F'ing good! My favorite ever is the Casa Noble anejo. Only ever seen it at a bar in San Diego. There's a homebrew store downtown where I live, I might have to get back into it again. It was fun, maybe this time I won't F it up. Do you use a local store or buy online?

Grenwal Hiesenberg Shadow Company HQ 223	Posted - 2013.02.16 01:10:00 - [31] - Quote I'm in luck, a homebrew shop opened up literally a mile down the road. Before that I almost always bought online the guy running hearts homebrew in central florida was always an a**hole for some reason. I guess he got entitled because he was the only game in town . When I do purchase online there are 3 places I stick to: brewmasters warehouse, midwest supplies, and northern brewer. Northern brewer and brewmasters warehouse both had flat rate shipping last time I checked. Midwest supplies had cheaper grains and malt extract but it only matters if you're buying in smaller quantities because they charge shipping by weight. Nothing beats cracking open a case of homebrewed beer with your friends and family, even if it's only now and then. I'll have to keep an eye out for the Flor de cana, can't pass up on a good ice cold rum !
Sete Clifton PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 67	Posted - 2013.02.16 02:09:00 - [32] - Quote Has anyone here ever had Malort? It's a Swedish bask that's only sold in Chicago, so next time you're there make sure to try it. Don't buy a bottle, just have a shot at a bar, it's all you'll need of it.
Blind Nojoy G I A N T 14	Posted - 2013.02.17 23:16:00 - [33] - Quote I did a little research on Malort...flavored with wormwood, wonder if it makes you hallucinate... I love the slogan: GÇ£Malort: Kick your mouth in the balls.GÇ¥

Blind Nojoy G I A N T 17	Posted - 2013.03.15 06:47:00 - [43] - Quote I'm down in Key West for work for a few weeks, there's a bar on the board walk called Dante's...one of their specialties is called Dark and Stormy. It looked like ginger beer and (a lot of) rum. Wasn't expecting much but it was very good. Another bar here called the White Tarpon makes a key like pie martini. Sounds girly...well, it is girly I guess, but very tasty and if you have 2 or 3 your gonna need to call a cab. And if any military guys make it to Sloppy Joes down here, tell the bartender at the horseshoe bar your attached to VFA-122. I asked for a scotch and she poured me a 12 ounch cup of Johnny walker black with 4 ice cubes, then when I was almost done she refilled it. I somehow made it back to my hotel room at 0547 in the morning...
Blind Nojoy G I A N T EoN. 26	Posted - 2013.05.06 06:00:00 - [44] - Quote Just tried the batch of home brew beer I made, been sitting for a few weeks. And I was....AWFUL That may be a little aggressive, it tasted like beer, but it was supposed to be a porter and tastes more like coors light. Then I realized I never purchased the Brewing Skillbook for 99.000 isk (zing) But seriously, probably more of a lack of skill and experience on my part. Though I am undeterred, I'll probably try another batch this summer and stick to my scotch for now. New favorite : Balvenie Doublewood 17. Never even heard of it til I saw it in a store in Vegas, bought the only bottle they had.
