I know it's not a manly drink, but I really enjoy bloody marys. Dash in some tobasco and it's to die for. But all in all I prefer sitting back with a good quality pint, can't beat the real hearty beers. Here lately i've gotten in to the Abita beers though, really liking the amber and the purplehaze. For those that have more experience with Abita, what's the best flavors? I've had the citrus orange one, the purplehaze, and the amber.
Abita Amber just may be my favorite beer in the world. I however don't rank the purple haze very highly. I am of the thinking fruit belongs in a jolly rancher and not in my beer. Staropramen is a really good beer and will knock you flat on your ass if you aren't careful. You can usually find it on tap at Old Chicago I'm not sure where it is made, chezh maybe? I also like the Dunkel if you are wanting a darker brew.
My bloody Mary's will knock your fucking socks off especially if you are big vinegar freak like I am. I use pickle juice, and buffalo wing sauce along with the Mary mix, vodka, salt, and lime juice, add a few olives a celery stalk and a pickle spear to garnish, yummmmmmmm
And that is how the gin and tonic was born. The only way the British Army could get the soldiers to drink the bitter quinine was to put it in their gin.
Sounds more like a science experiment. I love a good bloody mary, zing zang and some good quality vodka is all that is really needed with the exception of the tabasco. If I don't have zing zang then I will use wosterchire, tabasco, salt, pepper and throw in a few pickled green beans (hot) if you can find them
