what is on your adult beverage menu for the evening?

I'm looking for some Mexican grocery stores to check their stock in hopes that they're fresher. It may be that the stock at Sam's got old because no one wanted to pay the hefty difference of the ones in glass versus plastic.

I tried Texas Crown this weekend. It is close to the taste of Crown Royal and about $7 cheaper.

The Mexican Cokes taste like the cokes from years ago IMO. Some Krogers even carry then now in the ethinic section. They are even in a bottle from the 70's if I remember right. Oh yea, tonight I had a Bloody Mary made with Sobiaski and Zing Zang BM mix with a little lime juice

Whoever serves it to me or from wherever I buy it, I want the bite to kick me in the ass. It's hard to find that. Alot of the time I judge a restaurant by how punchy their sodas are. It tells me whether they take EVERYTHING seriously. I can still remember the one I had at a Taco Bell in St. Louis in 1998. So much better than any in Memphis.

Take a visit to Coke World in Atlanta sometime the tasting room at the end was great.

Here's a turn of events. Japanese suicides may be up but drinking is down.

Japanese beer sales reportedly slump to record low

By MarketWatch

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Japan's beer consumption, as measured by domestic shipments, fell to its lowest level last month since record-keeping began in 1992, according to a report Friday.

January shipments dropped 12.9% from the year-earlier month, according to industry data cited by Kyodo News, which attributed part of the fall to a drop in beer drinking by younger Japanese.

Regular beer shipments were down 11.9%, while those for low-malt "happoshu" beer plunged 32.8%, it said.

The only rise came in what the report described as "inexpensive, so-called third category beer-like alcoholic drinks," which nudged up 2.1%.

The report came after Japanese brewing major Kirin Holdings Co. /quotes/comstock/!2503 (JP:2503 1,342, -14.00, -1.03%) /quotes/comstock/11i!knbwy (KNBW.Y 14.61, -0.39, -2.60%) on Wednesday posted an almost 39% fall in fiscal year profit and said it was appointing a new president.

Going to a Grizzlies game downtown, I'm sure an overprice beer will be on order.

I had 2 22oz Ghost River Golden's last night. :drunk:

A division of Bosco's, very smooth, rich taste, not much, if any, after taste.

Well appreciated after the last two weeks of work being so hectic and crazy. Bad thing is, today, and the next 4 weeks are going to be this crazy. Will have to go get some more.

picked up some Coor's Light on the way home. Doing my best to put a dent in the pile. Then I shall nap.

As a side not, I sampled some Absynthe yesterday. Vile stuff, but it will get your happy ass drunk in a big way. One swallow and I swear I copped a buzz.

[Fallguy]

Got a 12 pack of Red Dog in the bottle just a bit ago.

Used to get this a lot several years ago and then was hard to find, thought I'd give it another shot.

I didnt even know they still made Red Dog. I remember my Dad drinking that stuff back in the day.
