Ginger ale will give you a hang over.

Gravdigr 12-19-2015 04:12 PM

I know it contributes to my overhang...


I drink a lot of ginger ale.

Impossible that it was 5 o'clock anywhere. Your post was made at 3:46. Maybe it was 5:46 somewhere, but it was not 5 of da clock. :p:

Somewhere there's a fast clock a slow clock...

Somewhere there's a fucked up clock where I was right on time.:D

Bah, time is a human construct, based on natural phenomena. There's nothing more natural than a man drinking, so let them alter the time construct to fit that natural phenomena.
Then after a few drinks nobody will give a pig's poopy. ;)

I absolutely love ginger ale. The real stuff: Goslings, Reeds, etc. the stuff that burns on the way down.

BigV 12-21-2015 11:11 PM

Gravdigr 12-24-2015 07:36 AM

Ginger ale - the cheap stuff from IGA.

Coffee black in a couple minutes.

Bud Light by the bucket in T-minus 1 hour.

Elijah Craig bourbon whit a splash of ginger ale.

Gravdigr 01-01-2016 04:35 PM

That sounds :yum:.

I'm drinking really bad ginger ale, rfn. Wal-Mart's ginger ale is teh bleurgh.

monster 01-01-2016 04:54 PM

Fairly Grim Cheap Merlot left by Banana Lady. Was looking forward to nice red wine after long hard day at work, only to find there wasn't any and the local purveyor of said wine was closed. Tried to make do, but it's a bit of a failure. Will probably resort to the usual sex-on-the-beach beer

xoxoxoBruce 01-01-2016 04:56 PM

It's amazing how Ginger Ale can be so good or so bad. When I was a kid it's the first thing I noticed adults having strong allegiance to a brand name.

Beestie 01-01-2016 05:03 PM

If the word Ginger does not appear in the list of ingredients (look for the % to be at least 15 - 20). Then it's just ginger flavored hfcs.

Plenty of good brands - just look for the percent and cane sugar in the ingredients.

Gosling or Reeds are my top 2

Gravdigr 01-01-2016 05:58 PM

I remember you mentioning those two before, Beestie. I'll have to try them.

I actually prefer the cheapest I've found, IGA/PriceLess' store brand. 76 cents for two liters.

Gravdigr 01-01-2016 06:05 PM

It looks like Gosling and Reed's are ginger beers.

That's a different animal from ginger ale isn't it?

monster 01-01-2016 07:05 PM

yes, imo

I like Canada dry Ginger Ale. That and just carbonated water are my two alternatives to Diet Coke in the soft drink department. Ginger beer has a real bite

Ginger beer burns on the way down.

Ginger beer is actually fermented (like beer) but has almost no alcohol. Ginger ale is carbonated water with ginger flavoring. If you get Ginger ale, check the label - some ginger ales (Canada Dry for a while) didn't have any ginger in it (due to public criticism, they now put a token amount of ginger in it - enough to include it in the list of ingredients).

And, yes, ginger beer burns on the way down. Some folks think it helps with digestion (maybe that's why they serve it with sushi).

xoxoxoBruce 01-02-2016 12:19 AM

Burns on the way up, too. ;)

Gravdigr 01-02-2016 02:27 PM

As long as it doesn't burn on the way out...

When I can't keep anything on my stomach, I drink flat ginger ale, and eat saltless saltine crackers.

Works sometimes.

Well, I tried Reed's Extra Ginger Brew. 26 grams of ginger in the 12 oz bottle.

Attachment 54781

There is a resemblance to something I've tasted before, and, I cannot identify the something it resembles, other than to say it tastes like mouthwash.

The first swallow is good. Refreshingly so. After that first swallow, though, I'm done with it.

I'm glad, too. Costs too damn much for as much as I'd drink if I liked it as well as ginger ale.

I have a cheap and unsophisticated palate, apparently.

Back to IGA/Priceless.

7 Fake Movie And TV Drinks That Got Us Drunk In Real Life

^^^Cracked.com link^^^

fargon 01-22-2016 05:47 PM

You have got to be a "Real" man to drink wake up juice. Once a long, long time ago... I was sitting with friends at the Bob's Big Boy on 17th Street in Santa Ana Ca. And Turkey (not his real name, the names were changed to protect the guilty.) bet me that I couldn't drink a water glass full of Tabasco Sauce with out puking. Since $20.00 was on the line, I was forced by nature to take said bet. Well to make a long story short. I didn't puke, I farted and cleared the restaurant. Our waiter Rudy the Rude said "i'm in the presence of greatness". The Manager was heard to exclaim that he also was in the "presence of greatness" And since these people had just come in nobody was bummed to see them go.

I love The Kraken. Mix it up w/ some good ginger ale and maybe a splash of cranberry or lime juice.

Reed's is good but because it is pricey, I opt for Goslings - a six pack of cans is about 4 bucks.

classicman 01-27-2016 01:51 PM

Vintage Wild Cherry Seltzer - it was on sale 2 for $1.00 for the 1 quart sized bottles.

Dude111 01-28-2016 04:28 PM

Iced coffee.

infinite monkey 01-28-2016 09:48 PM

I'm drinking a lot of wine. Taking a night off. I didn't get the job I wanted so I am lucky to have the two part-time jobs. I'm just a bit discouraged.

Life is funny, cruel, and interesting in turns.

So... :)

fargon 01-29-2016 05:15 AM

I'm sorry that you did not get the job IM.
