Yeah, same here. Work has been taking up more of time lately. Plus I don't see some of my friends as often. Some chose to leave the country, some just became less close because of normal life stuff. Anyway, I used to go out a lot. 2 times a week minimum. These days, I'll be lucky to get a real...

Alcohol percentage in beer. Go look at beer labels. My favorite beer, Budweiser, has a perfect 5 % alcohol. The one I drink the most (because it's Portuguese), which is Super Bock, has 5,6 %. I've drank beer with more % and I like them fine. Beers with much less %, not so much.

Good question :) But I can't just name one. Fictional don't do much for me... Alive - Mark Cuban, Paul Rusesabagina, Bill Burr. Dead - Jim Morrison, James Braddock, James Gandolfini, Charlie Chaplin. Theres many, many more I could and should name... But mostly Bill Burr though :p

My taste buds really need some training, as I'm not really that able when it comes to recognizing what is good stuff, and what is garbage... Having said that, I'll always have ice on my glass, and sometimes I'll drop some coke in there. Really depends on what I'm planning to do with myself that...

Have you checked Amazon? I was dating this chick from Peru a couple of years ago, and she was always talking about this drink they have over there called Chicha de Jora. I was able to get that and Pisco (another Peruvian drink) from Amazon. If I was able to get that from Amazon, I'd bet you'll...

Can't change it to English!!! :D:D:D It's pretty hard to navigate in Romanian, but I managed. They don't ask what country I'm on when I'm registering, so I'm guessing they won't ship abroad:( Can't find FAQs anywhere...

I've been reading around... Here's what I've found out: The bottle that you see on my first post is Jim Beam Original. It's whisky made by mixing the content of a lot of different barrels, each with different maturation. So one barrel might be one year old, and another 5 years old or...

I don't usually drink beer or wine with meals. I think it's just a habit thing, and I guess I'll probably change as I get older. Some meals just need beer though... Any kind of ham and sausage sandwich, pizza, francesinha. I do prefer snacks like peanuts, pretzels, lupini beans, etc.

Would you mind sharing what website that is? I'm from Portugal so that's not too far away... I gave up cigarettes years ago, but I'd sure go for a cigar when I'm feeling like Tony Soprano. I've never smoked a cigar :( I'm scared I'll inhale the smoke...

It really depends... Sometimes I'm just trying to blow off steam, or talk to girls, or something, and the bar where I'm at doesn't really matter. Those nights, I prefer to keep it moving, and not stay too much time in one place. When I just want to talk crap with friends it's different. I like...

I can't wait to get to do this! Sadly, it's a rich man game since you'll need several whiskys to make the best of the experience... You'll also need: Tulip-shaped glasses (they work best for aroma sampling) Room-temperature water (some say that you're supposed to add water before smelling...

It's white whisky... Didn't even know this was a thing. According to Jim Beam's website, white whisky was the first kind they ever produced. Seems like they just recently brought this recipe back. They claim that it's lighter than normal whisky, with "a sweet flavor and hints of vanilla". By...

It's not like I'm trying to never buying beer again... There's just something sexy to brewing your own. How long did it take for each batch from start to end? What was the worst part of it in your opinion?

I've always drank alcohol like a teenage dumbass... So I don't even know what's mine. I'ven drank some lower tier whiskys in my days, but the only thing I was reading in the label was the alcohol %. What's the oldest whisky you've ever drank, and did you find the flavour significantly better...

I've seen it on TV and movies, and it seems like the equipment doesn't take too much space. A couple of 7 gallon buckets, some tubing, a bottle capper, and you're pretty much set. How much of an undertaking are we talking here? How long till you get a batch ready? Is the beer just awful...

I'm an awful cook... Let me just start with that. But there's one particular dish here in Portugal that is renowned for using beer in it's recipe, as well as being something you absolutely must wash down with beer. It's "Francesinha": I'm sure that you'll be able to find the recipe online...

I'm thinking about treating myself to a new bottle... I'm seeing all kinds of reviews, and most of them have Jim Beam VERY highly ranked. I find it odd because it's quite cheap when compared to other bourbons... Are there several types of "Jim Beam" bourbon as far as the quality goes? Like, is...

I live in Portugal. It's a really small country but there's lot's of options as far as locally produced beers. They are also quite good I must say... Champion: Super Bock Can't go wrong with this one. It's a pale lager being produced since 1927. Honorable Mentions: Maldita It's a...

That sure went well for him :P I'm trying to dilute alcohol here. Not add more :P Sure like the name of the cocktail though... Whisky Mac.

There are two obvious champs here: Coca-cola and Redbull. Oh, and ice... :P I'd also like to get into mixing juices and tonic maybe... Not complicated cocktails. Simple stuff. So how do you take your poison? Please share your best recipes. Cheers
