It's Saturday Night, what are you drinking?

Was gonna post in Gd but those animals aren't civilised.

Currently got quite a nice Sauvignon Blanc on the go but tempted to switch to the Wild Turkey American Honey.

Any of you guys drinking anything interesting?

Congrats dude. Can't say I drink too much tbh, maybe once every two weeks. The nice weather just made me fancy a bev.

Any reason for not drinking?

Juice I'm afraid, trying to give up the booze.

I know this guy personally, and he drinks alcohol at least 5 times a week.

What did you used to drink? Lager/guinness

Shame, do you not miss the taste?

My guilty pleasure is JD and Pepsi Max - anyone reading don't say why not Coke ?

That ***** is vile

Stella, Cava, Champagne and real ales. Problem was I would start on a Friday and finish late Sunday. Feel like crap until Wednesday, poor diet, limited exercise.

What stopped me boozing was a hangover that turned very nasty. Put me off and I gave it up. Feel so much better, but that was me, a binge drinker, one was never enough lol

For something a bit different (not drinking heavily) pulled out a bottle of Isojiman sake - it was a gift - I just looked up the price and wish I hadn't.

Surprise-Mother · 9 Apr 2017 at 00:13

Was it good rroff?

I hope so

Rroff · 9 Apr 2017 at 00:16

Its good yes.

Surprise-Mother · 9 Apr 2017 at 01:07

Is it £40 a bottle good ?

Rroff · 9 Apr 2017 at 01:45

I don't really have much to compare it to when it comes to sake - its good but not something that would make me pay the amounts this goes for - its a bit more than £40.

Too much of it? I genuinely don't drink alcohol for the effects or anything I just genuinely love the taste of certains spirits.

Cider is probably my go to though, Ree don't you miss the taste at least? (not trying to get you off the wagon)

drank a load of hop house 13 last sat - think its the larger i've been looking for for a while now, good balance of refreshing and flavoursome, although quite strong!

Surprise-Mother · 11 Apr 2017 at 20:58

Ah if you don't miss the taste then I can understand not drinking it.

I only drink specific alcohol for the taste no other reason

I wish I enjoyed larger, have to be in a weird mood for one

The weekends here, what are people drinking?
