Mr SuperAwesome posted:what does this taste like? i see lots of people drinkingit here mate (pronounced mat-eh) is a type of tea, so it's kind of like a carbonated not-green-tea-ish taste. it's pleasant

i like drinking manhattans, they are like martinis, but with whiskey. plus it's funny to order one and watch other bar patrons slowly copy me, my signature drink spreading through the lounge like a virus

buffalo trace was my goto "nice but not super expensive" bourbon in grad school but seems like it's getting more expensive it's like when lionshead was dirt cheap and they raised the price, and it was like, dude, we drink this cause it's less than yuengling don't front

why does everyone seem opposed to simply serving real drinks i want to walk into a bar and have a menu that's like "old fashioned, martini, manhattan", and a whiskey list. maybe throw in some decent craft beers would that really be so hard?

JewKiller 3000 posted:yeah the fancy cocktail list is to give you ideas from the bartender's style, special things they do there, otherwise why would you go there? you can make your own manhattan at home, but you can't make a flaming purple whatsit with obscure liqueurs and house-made syrups/juices. if you want a manhattan then order a manhattan and they'll make you one there are no women in my home

mishaq posted:more and more wine makers are going screwtop because the convenience outweighs the stigma when i was in paris they had a bunch of screwtop wines that were really good. not like, super fancy but definitely worth 10 euros apparently the idea is if it's a decent wine you'll have a glass or two then save the rest for tomorrow rather than pound a bottle of sherry and wander around Montmartre looking for the amelie cafe

Sagebrush posted:the combination of tobacco and alcohol use creates a risk of mouth and throat cancer that is like two orders of magnitude higher than either one on its own. something about how the alcohol damages mucous membranes which are then made more permeable to the carcinogens in the tobacco. there's also a big difference between smoking a cigar after a fine whiskey once a month or so and smoking every day.

Doom Mathematic posted:If you're ever in Brussels, be sure to go to the Mannekin Pis, then ignore it, go over the road and have a drink at Poechenellekelder, which is by far the superior tourist destination. you're supposed to take a picture while leaning back to make it look like it's pissing in your mouth also the Jeanneke Pis piss is better, because it's next to Delerium Cafe. I'm actually not a big fan of Belgians (more into stouts/porters or bourbon) but made a stop and enjoyed it.

What is a good cocktail bar in SF, preferably in the SOMA/FiDi/Mission area? I don'tcare about ambiance, if it's a dive bar with a savant bartender I'm ok with that. I usually go to the Hay Adams when in DC, they're kind of stuffy though and it took a long time for them to be like of he's one of those tech guys so basically craft cocktails, loungey, willing to pay but anything more than 15 for a manhattan is a rip.

I know they had some back and forth about opening a pizzeria or something Edit: lol @ the tenderloin blowjob bar suggestion. sounds fun for people watching but looks a little far from the bart for my taste maskenfreiheit fucked around with this message at 00:14 on Oct 21, 2017 |

Lyon posted:it feels like breweries and beer nerds are heading towards craft lagers as the next trend. it went ipa, stout, and we are currently in the age of the sour, but i think you'll see a big return of lagers (lagers, kolsches, pilsners, marzens, etc). i'm ok with this. i don't like super hoppy beer or sours. too often I'd be at "craft" beer places that had a bunch of hop glasses or a token guiness. then everything became like, 25% imperial soviet stouts and like, i like dark beer but i like having 2-3 over an evening, slow yer roll. so then i started mostly sticking to yuengling but being able to get something a step up from that would not be bad

once in amsterdam i got carded which was weird but ok whatever it was this bar near my hostel apparently it was 21+ to keep out backpackers like ok i can relate. but the guy was fascinated with my american DL and america in general, so i told him how the subway sucks worse than bratislavas and he liked that the place was kind of deserted so I asked if he could make a manhattan, he's like "oh yeah sure i just have to get my book!!!" in this really thick eastern european accent. (i didn't want to be a dick and ask where, all I could figure out was he was from not poland) i don't know what he looked up, i think he gave me an old fashioned maybe but anyways he mashed up a sugar cube and is like super excited and then put in what tasted like orange bitters? or maybe it was normal bitters and the fact he literally stuck the top third of an orange (peel and all) into a wine glass did i mention he poured all the whiskey and stuff into one of those big rear end wine glasses? yeah but he looks at me all excited and is like "very good drink yes? like fancy american bar!" so i just kind of smilled and said yes, it is a very good fancy american drink, paid him ten euros and left tbh it had a poo poo load of liquor in it and 10EUR was pretty cheap for the city center so i wasn't made but it was just very surreal. maskenfreiheit fucked around with this message at 18:16 on Dec 30, 2017 |
