Kelkhil, just so you know, the link you gave was to this very thread. Here is the link for the previous one, if'n anyone wants it.

Anyhow, I think I will have more Jack today. Straight up, a double I think.

The strawberry/mango concoction sounds like it would go great with a bit of dark rum.

As a question to ponder on, what is everyone's favorite beer/malt beverage? Are there any particular microbreweries you are partial/loyal to?

All good choices, IMHO.

I am the same with only drinking Killians on tap, and we used to have a bar right up the street from the restaurant I worked in in Atlanta that had PBR both on tap and tallboys. Since Miller/Bud/Coors Light/Select/GD/etc all taste the same to me, I go for Milewaukee's Best when going for cheap beer, as well as your PBR.

Beer is definitely an aquired taste. After beginning with hard liquor, I started my beer drinking with the malt beverages (hard lemonade, etc), then gradually got into good beers. I can drink the water beers (Miller/Bud/Coors/Natural Light/etc) if there is nothing else, but I prefer not to. The do make some lovely fruity beers, such as Sweetwater's Blue (blueberry) and Abita Purple Haze (raspberry wheat), and I myself have made a peach wheat beer that was pretty good (not trying to convince you, really just whinging).

Whiskey is definitely good for whatever ails you, and after any week in your shoes (dealing with the kids you have to deal with) I know it will help to take the edge off. At least your school didn't burn down --> http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/11/02/school.fire.ap/index.html

But but but, dark rum is sweet. Accents the mango and strawberry flavors. There are also mango rums, and strawberry vodkas.

We used to make strawberry-banana and mango-raspberry margaritas, so strawberry-mango shouldn't be too much of a stretch at all.

Jonny, I prefer the darker beers myownself, one exception being Blue Moon, a Belgian white wheat beer, though I go all the way down to stouts and porters in my preference.

I posted a great drink comprised of Pomagranate juice, lemon lime soda, and rum. I added a few orange sprigs ti the virgin version for the kids at work and they loved it.

And I think beer is an aquired taste. The Great Basin Brewing Company in Sparks has a great raspberry beer that lacks the bitter flavor but has the bite of beer as opposed to a cooler. Great drink.

"Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?"

RW Intrusion that's oh so relevant. Swear to Goodness: shortly after my last post on today I go to lunch. I went to the little market with my honey (we work together if I've never explained that before; it's how we met) and I'm trying to decide what kind of yogurt to get (thinking strawberry-banana which seems doubly inspired by my postings today...), when I spotted it. Yoplait makes a STRAWBERRY-MANGO flavoured (for our Queen's English friends) yogurt. I'm looking at it right now in wicked anticipation. (gotta finish the rest of my lunch first. Which includes cottage cheese, tropical fruit mix--with mangoes!--and butterscotch pudding. Did I die and go to heaven? (Uh oh. Cottage Cheese and yogurt and I'm lactose intolerant?))

UPDATE: Whew! Apparently the yogurt got me so dithered, I didn't get any cottage cheese. In it's place, however, I see another experimental food: Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper flavored potato chips. Why am I so adventurous today?

We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

RIMG-Drinking Belgians isn't really the same as drinking beer. It's more like drinking Malt Wines. And even that's not an ample description.

MsG-Ever had a Belgian? Er, beer? If not, that would be a good place to start. I can't imagine anyone drinking coffee the first time because of the taste. It was the smell, remember? C,mon all you javaholics, you know it's true. Not talkin' about pansy, flavored, frothy beverages: we mean the thick, black sludge that gets us moving in the morning. Yuck! Bitter! *ptui!*

Beer's like that. And the both make you pee about the same; more and quicker than anything else.

Johnny - we did talk about the whiskies, and their differences, and for me, any type will do. Well, let me clarify. I don't do blended scotch. I don't like some Canadian whiskey (Crown Royal = good, Seagrams = not so good).

PR - I am glad you are set in your convictions about smoke and drink. I think it is a personal choice that we all make, and as long as that choice does not infringe on anyone else's ability to make the choice, it really doesn't matter to me what the results of that choice might be.

Oh yeah, mornin' drinkers. I think I will start with a double of the house single malt scotch, something at least 18 years old please. Neat.

I just thought about this, and you CoffeeHeads might find it interesting, as I am fair certain that more'n one of you (Jonny himself admitted to it) share this quality. Every morning when I am warming up my breakfast in the office microwave, I open up the big coffee can and take a deep breath in, smelling the goodness. I cannot stand the taste (the froo-froo drinks from a coffee house are ok, though I usually get the ones that are ultra sweet or contain lots of chocolate) but the smell is one of the best that I can think of, at least right now.
