should've posted ancient age, anon. or evan williams. those are cheap enough i'll use them to deglaze if i don't have beer.

>>12020887
Good tasting alcohol is dangerous. If you really want to stop alcoholism, make the only legal drinks vodka and tequila

>>12020887

Here Here!

>>12020887
Nigga now this is cheap

How do I into moonshine?

>>12021207
if you think tequila tastes bad try something better than cuervo

>>12020887
Then why did you post good shit?

is this the whiskey thread? can anyone tell me if this shit is any good?

>>12023463
Similar to Jameson, but a bit more smooth and mellow, (Jameson already being pretty smooth and mellow) as well as more sweet. Not particularly exciting, but it's pleasurable to get ripped on.

>>12023436
Ol' Smokey Blue Flame. Strong as fuck and will tear you up promptly.

>>12023810
Thankee

>>12023810
>not making your own moonshine
It’s like you are little babby.

I just discovered freeze distilling and it has changed my life. You can get any cheap shit and increase the ABV %

Tried it on box wine and made a really shitty tasting spirit. But I mix it with coke anyway.

Basically got a litre of vodka for $6

>tfw literally this picture now

>>12021207
most alcoholics buy the cheapest worst tasting shit possible that'll just get em drunk. This argument is so stupid lmao like when's the last time you saw an alcoholic buying Macallan 18 year

>>12024416
You think that's where most of them started? Yike-a-rama.

>>12024424
my guess would be that alcoholics are drawn to something other than the taste of alcohol originally. The feeling, how it affects your mental state/helps you forget or worry about shit, etc. No one's like man this whiskey is delicious, I wanna drink it all the time now!

>>12024261
How did you reverse your baldness?

>>12024475
>No one's like man this whiskey is delicious, I wanna drink it all the time now!

Cheap liquor is the best because I drink to get drunk, not to be some kind of rich alcohol koaneseur like in the movies

Was recommended this recently when looking for a new whisky and it was pretty damn good and affordable. Anyone else had this before?

>>12023436
I know it's plebbit but r/firewater is a really good resource.

>>12023463
Me and a buddy drank a 3/4 handle on Friday

>Wild Turkey 101
>$20 for 750 ml
>cheap

No, Evan Williams black label at $17 per 1.75 L is cheap.

>>12025165
and? was it good shit?
>>12025201
this, not really sure what OP's on about. But I'm currently sipping on this and it's pretty solid for really cheap stuff

>>12022696
this is good if you like harsher stuff( I do personally), but it's not smooth at all so beware those that aren't into that

>>12025279
It was great. He got a fat lip and I busted my elbow and my toe
Tullamore Dew is pretty awesome too

>>12025289
kek what did you fight each other or just fall around like dumbasses? and yeah I'm gonna try and get a hold of that soon

>>12025295
I got aggressive, and before you ask we're both grown men with engineering jobs
I'm a piece of shit human being
Back to the OP I'm a pretty big fan of Turkey 101 as well, take that as you will

>>12024475
Yeah you are obviously right. The other guy is an idiot. I'm surprised it's getting argued at all.

>>12024168
could you please elaborate on how much that kind of setup costs, the quality of the 'shine and the typical yield? Genuinely curious, thanks

I'm on day 3 with no drink and have a bad headache.

>>12024416
i am alcoholic, but i prefer glendronach revival

>>12024168
>>12025455
Me as well

>>12024475
>>12025338
You don't know many people, do you?

>>12020887
Drink Military Special then

>>12025047
One of the classic Diageo malts I believe (1 of 6 different labels that Diageo considers a representative of the region it's from). It's distilled near the boarder of the Highlands/Speysides so it could potentially be classified as either. I remember it being pretty smooth and fairly tasty/sweet (vanilla/cereal notes on the palate), but not exceptionally complex/complicated. A good beginner's whisky. My memory might be a bit off as it was a while ago that I had it.

Is expensive vodka for chumps?

>>12026172
I know your mom faggot

>>12026231
great question anon, and the answer is yes.

You've fallen for the scam if you are buying expensive vodka. It all tastes like rubbing alcohol with varying degrees of smoothness, and idk why anyone would drink it straight purely for the pleasure of the taste. And if you're gonna mix it anyway just get some fucking Smirnoff or some shit and call it a day

bump

>>12020887
Question to my vodka fags. What's is the best mixer out of these 3: Canada dry lemonade, canada dry original, or squirt soda?

>>12026977
The correct answer is Simply Orange Juice for a screwdriver, or Simply Lemonade if you really want lemonade. Of those choices though, Canada dry original with your own added lemon juice is the best, better than their lemonade

>>12025286
i know. i always keep a bottle on hand, and onlt one liquor store in my town sells it

>>12026986
Yea those are my go to but i'm broke as fuck right now and only have these 3.

>>12020887
Four roses is very good news cheap, doesn't burn which means I drink faster= get girls to drop thier tops faster

>>12023463
its protestant whiskey

>>12027070
No it's not. That's Bushmills.

>>12027162
These are for you Mcnulty

>>12026997
I feel that. Me personally I quite like Grand dad. It has this caramel and vanilla flavor to it that is really palatable
>>12027035
ya then I'd go the original canada dry with lemon juice, unless you are big on sweets

>>12024500
you drink camo black

>>12022696
Old granddad 114 up Manhattans for when I want to get there (where we all want to be in the Larry Miller sense) on the express lane.

Any army fags here ?

>>12027192
Okay, so it's owned by a Scottish Company. Still, it's produced in Ireland proper.

>>12025279
Yooo, my favorite blackout drink! $7 a fifth, if I recall. Solid, if you ain't picky but expect the Jack Daniels fags to turn their noses up at it if you whip it out at a party.

>>12024416
You are wrong, dude. How could you even come up with that ? I’ve never met an alcoholic who buys the “cheapest, worst tasting” shit. Alcoholics consume all sorts of alcohol

>>12022696
You posted regular Old Grandad, not the Bonded version. Shame on you!

>>12023463

>>12027329
former sailor here.
Those NEXCOM package stores had insane prices
I miss getting shitfaced with the same familiar faces. Shit, sleep, work, and drink with the same 30 guys for a decade isn't half as bad as it sounds.

>>12024475
>No one's like man this whiskey is delicious, I wanna drink it all the time now!
lolwut

>>12023495
>>12025165
>>12027070
>>12027368
thanks lads, think i'll try a bottle this weekend. cheers

>>12027360
You posted bonded Old Grand-Dad, not the 114 version. Shame on you!

>>12025279
Try the rye version. It's a little more expensive (I think like $2) but it's 90 proof and, to me at least tastes better.

>>12027348
Jack Daniels fags will turn their nose up at anything that's not Jack Daniels or some fruity mixed drink.

>>12027329
former army, only military special I ever had was their vodka the night my ex-wife kicked me out, and I almost fucked a fat chick. engineer/10 experience right there

Just had one of these for the first time recently. Actually pretty good and very reasonably priced.
As a nice novelty, it actually has a distinct aftertaste like you just got done sucking on a roll of pennies. I assume this is where they got the name from.
While it was a little off-putting at first. I found that the more you drink, the aftertaste actually becomes rather refreshing to the point where I can drink more of it at a time without feeling the need for a chaser.

>>12020887
How is WT101? I'm thinking of getting some.

>>12024416
alcoholic here
I buy cheap rotgut garbage when i am broke and good tasting stuff when i am not.
If im going to get drunk and I have money I will buy stuff that doesnt taste like liquid found at the bottom of a dumpster. But if I am broke fuck it dumpster liquid it is.

>>12027839
It's pretty good very smooth.

>>12023463
I enjoy it.

>>12026161
>>12025455
reflux still cost about $200 but buy the time you factor in all the little things like containers,mash, yeast, bubbler, burner and whatnot it could cost $500 if your not thrifty. Quality is great to meh depending on your mash but its strong AF, reflux stills are more for making vodka if you want whiskey you need a pot still but they are not nearly as efficient.

>>12026277

>Smirnoff
is such shit tier, why not buy Sky its almost the same price and way smoother

>>12026977
drink the vodka straight then chase it with Dr.Pepper. But if you're looking for a sweet mixer try equal parts vodka and orange juice then fill the rest of the glass with Canada dry original and if you got it a maraschino cherry with a spoon full of its juice/liquid stuff

>>12020887
Cognac is tastier...

>>12025694

That's nothing my guy. Wait until you're one day off the liquor and youre shaking so bad people think you're on drugs.

>>12026277

>Smirnoff

Richfag detected. Popov or Barton's is that real alky shit. I'm actually not looking forwards to St Paddy's because I'll have to go out and drink overpriced dyed Guinness with my friends.

>>12028687
>posts literally the worst Cognac
At least post some Vallein-Tercinier you literal subhuman.

>>12028687

>>12028594
I actually agree with you, got a 750ml of Skyy in my freezer right now actually. Was just grasping for a cheap vodka brand in the moment that wasn't fucking motor oil
>>12029352
Barton's tastes like fucking pool chemicals

>overpaying at bars with friends to not look like the cheapass

i know this feel. My friends of the female persuasion will always be like this $12 cocktail is great, you should get one and try it! And I'm just staring longingly at getting another Woodford neat

When i learned how much taxes on alcohol goes to the state that motivated me to stop drinking. Now i just smoke weed i get from the coffeeshop.

>>12020887
>wild turkey 101
Stuff gave my brother and i slight alcohol poisoning a week ago even though we were both drunk earlier in the day before drinking it, never again with that crap. Not even the worst cheap brandy ever made me so sick the next morning. I'd rather drink cheap scotch.

>>12027634
It's the same for me with every alcoholic drink that I don't like from the beginning. After a few sips the first skeptical impression fades away after getting used to the taste and since I'm getting more drunk anyway I will drink larger quantities during a single sip and so on. The only beverage where I just couldn't handle the taste and gave up drinking it even though it was the only alcoholic drink around was a Guinness Beer. Ugh.

>>12027329
Glad they got you military grade booze, you boys would tear right through consumer grade.

>>12024261
I kek'd

>>12021207
>make the only legal drinks vodka and tequila
literally the two sweetest easy to drink spirits available without getting into the high end stuff

>>12029654
>Drunk already earlier in the day
>Decide to drink a 100 proof hard liquor anyway
You're a special type of retard, and it's a shame the alcohol poisoning did not kill you.

>>12030670
Yeah I get that for other liquors, but what I'm saying is this specific aftertaste actually becomes a positive after more drinks rather than just fading to where you can't taste it any more.

>>12027583
he didn't even get to fuck the fat chick....

really makes you think

>>12027417
As a nukefag in Bremerton you can get a bottle of jim beam for 9 bucks

>>12027329
I see this shit at the BX and I'm just not adventurous/poor enough to buy it

>>12023495

>>12027360
shit, that's the one i have in my cupboard. the first pic I posted is the wrong bottle.

>>12028687

This stuffs 15 dollars here and I think it tastes decent

>>12023444
your trips show that you are a man/gril of taste and whatever
that's fucken delicious tequila you fucker!

>>12028687
niger cone-yack is ok
Henny and Co-Vossy-Ayyyyyo are not bad at all
i prefer think i might prefer Armagnac, but 's'all good y'all
nice with some sparkling water & ice when it's hot outside

I thought the balancing act comes the next morning ;)

Speaking of that:
>We can't legalize pot because it doesn't give hangover! How would one not get addicted to it then?

Lowered testosterone levels.

For me it's still Buffalo Trace

>>12028687
Actually, some of the best cheap liquor is brandy. Christian brothers and all that. It's just distilled red wine, and not surprisingly France has convinced that a brandy made from some stupid grape in their country is better. It's not.

And people that spend money on cognac are mostly hip hop worshipping fucks that mix it with juice or sodas.

>>12027308
Responding to myself but thread made me realize I used to love Manhattans from cheap ingredients. Made an EW black label one tonight with gallo sweet vermouth. Was OK. Scratched the itch and I'll go back to neat EW with dp or cola back after the vermouth is gone.

>>12031795
you first

>>12020939
$20/L is still cheap. It's not the absolute cheapest thing on the market but it's by no means expensive.
