think they have a black n' tan beer, might be guiness for the dark, and not sure which beer they put as the light beer, had it a few times, not bad. :bonk:

You mean mixing two beers in one glass? Never heard of that, the only mix I know is beer+vodka and it's cut-off combination :bleh:

but like guiness beer, heavy and thick beer though, acquired taste


I want to taste Guiness, but the problem is that bars and pubs in BG offer only a limited range of beers :grumble: - usually some local brands + Staropramen, Amstel, Tuborg, Becks, Heineken and Stella Artois.

@kenjilina: Yes, indeed pivo ("„„y„r„€") is very imortant word :mrgreen:

Distilled spirits. Check it out....

'Iichiko' is the shiznit. I tried 'Shiro' however it tasted like ass.

Pics of my bottle of Iichiko.

My personal favorite, however would be awamori. Kick ass stuff.

Pic of my Awamori bottle. Kind of cool 'cause the bottle is a 'Shisa'.

Hey my friend! Welcome back.
Aquafina is good water.

The water I hate is Arrowhead. Tastes like shit.
16 Oct 2005, 19:13 #670
Oh, yeah. Arrowhead is fucking awful! Ugh.

You've got to give them credit though, it can't be easy to mess up water. Well done, guys!

:lol: :lol:

I wonder what they put in it to give it that shitty taste quality? Last time I drank that water, I think was around 6 years ago or something.
Evian sucks too. I mean, it's the most expensive water you'll ever buy, and it tastes no different than Dasani, Crystal Geiser, or any of the other ones....... Everything from France and the like is overpriced. Handbags, water and all.

I too, had the same reaction when I first seen it. After I tried it, it was a whole different story from there.

HHmmm gotta try this combo. Thanks krim! :thumbsup:

@aho:
Thanks for the education on Shochu, Iichiko and Awamori. Next time I go to Japan I will remember to try some of these. I don't think any of my local liquor stores carry them. The Imo shochu sounds good especially since I like the taste of almonds. Do you drink your shochu and awamori staright? Does Mitsuwa sell this stuff?

PS. aho....Love your little dog in your avatar. Sooo cute! :D

What does the water taste like? If you want to get technical most water bottles are PET Plastic now and that has alot to do with the taste of the water.

Just to be sure, Iichiko is just the alcohol? It's up to you to mix it with whatever you like (like the tea mixture we had), right? :headscratch:

Yes sir. That is what we drank at Cydney Brooks Cafe. Mixed with Oolong Tea.
I recommend Suntory's Oolong tea. Killers!
