Please leave birthday alone. :)

Most alcohol has that actually.

The whole burning sensation is the reason I don’t like alcohol. XD And wine’s aftertaste is vile, unless you get a really good wine, but those good wines tend to be the really expensive ones, like the wines they serve at rich people weddings. The only alcoholic beverage I actually enjoyed was a wine I had at a wedding.

I like the sweeter wines, but I can’t stand dry wines. Bleah. It’s not the burn, either; it’s the taste.

I liken really dark beers, like stouts and porters. Chocolate stout is awesome., as are oatmeal stouts. Oddly enough, I like bitter beer but I don’t like other things I eat to be bitter (don’t even drink coffee).

Oh, and pumpkin beer is terrific if it’s made right.

I had a seaweed beer once. I was disappointed that it was neither awesome nor terrible, just…okay.

I have a few drinks I want to try, namely a martini (doesn’t matter what kind), a screwdriver, and a few others.

I like vodka mixed with Dr. Pepper, or good old Irish whiskey. Not much of a beer drinker, though.

Beer’s disgusting.

Blasphemy! Unless you’re speaking of that pale yellow Miller/Coors/Bud “beer,” in which case I agree with you.

The only mixed drink that’s super-girly/weak/kind of gay that I like are Mohjitos.

Mojitos are delicious. Of course, I love both mint and lime.

My beer-drinking friends and acquaintances(read: all of my friends and acquaintances) have told me that beer is an acquired taste and nobody likes it at first. Myself, I just don’t see the use in it, since I’d rather be totally drunk or totally sober and beer accomplishes neither.

I have never been totally drunk and have no desire to ever be so. However, a couple of high-alcohol beers (say, 10%) give me a nice buzz, which is all I want from an alcoholic drink. I drink ‘em for the flavor, mostly.

Why?

What, drinking water in between will give you serious hangovers?

“Stick to beer you’re in the clear; beer then liquor ever sicker”

It’s the exact opposite, according to Mythbusters.^^

I saw an episode of Mythbusters about mixing drinks, in which mixing the drinks gave the test subjects less of a hangover than the same amount of alcohol by drinking just beer.

edit: left II in a tab and got beaten by four minutes. XD

Anyway, strawberry daiquiris aren’t very manly but they’re pretty good.

Yeah, I remember once when I was in high school, I was watching a football game with my old man, and he turned to me and said, “Make sure you never mix your drinks.” Of course, I was a law-abiding teenager and that command came with no context or segue whatsoever, so I was totally bewildered. He then went on to explain that mixed drinks caused hangovers, and I filed it away as a post-21 ground rule.

It was good advice, but I never did find out what prompted him to say that.

Specifically vomiting hangovers. At least, for me. Sticking to one drink normally results in a “uunnnggghhh” hangover, rather than a close, personal relationship with the toilet the next day.

I swear by prairie oysters. They’re disgusting, but work beautifully.
