I'd stay away from the hard liquor if I were you.  I can't stand most hard liquor anyway (except tequila).  

and the reason you don't like beer is because american beer tastes like pee-pee. thats perfectly normal.

lol

Yeah, I just want to get a taste of stuff.  I'm not trying to get wasted, or even tipsy again.

Quote (Corran Horn @ Aug. 29 2006, 10:18 am) well, because of my BD (late November) I was usually the youngest person in my classes.  Most everybody I knew in High School was 18 when they gradudated. Shouldn't you be the oldest if you miss the ~Sept. cut-off?  I had a friend the same age who was born a month later than me and was a grade behind... *shrug*

Well, maybe it wasn't september back then.  That's the only thing I can think of.  I was never accelerated or anything.  

I did start kindergarden at 4 years old, I know that.

Secret government experiment gone horribly awry, no doubt.

oh yeah, did I forget the part where I was assigned to work with Special Agent Max Guevera during Project: Dark Angel?

Well, you wouldn't be interested in that anyway...

You took the words right out of my mouth  

Beer is an aquired taste. More you drink, the better it tastes.

Okay, so I just recently became 'legal' when it comes to alcohol. (remember, I don't celebrate birthdays, so no need to wish me a happy one) Question is, what should I try first?  I'm not a big fan of alcohol, but it's obviously still a novelty, so I'll take suggestions. So far, I've sipped beer, and I don't like that.  And I had a can of cheap sake in Japan, and didn't like that either.  So I think I'll be sticking to the chick drinks.  Heh. Anyway, enlighten me, you drunks.

I think you should revisit the beer and sake thing.

Beer

There are a bazillion kinds of beer out there.  Do you remember what kind you tried and didn't like?  There are options.  Get yourself a variety pack of some sort and get a few kinds of beer.  Here's a starter list from very dark and heavy to light with some suggestions you should be able to get:

stout - Guiness - it's the standard.  So smooth and filling.

porter - Anchor Steam from Sanfrancisco.  Less heavy than the Guiness but very rich taste.

pale ale/amber ale - there is a huge variety here so just look for a local microbrew.  These are heavier beers with more flavor but are still "see through"

IPA - I like Bridgeport from Oregon. This will have a lot of hops so may be a bit bitter.  Not everyone goes for this one but I think it's good on a hot day

lager - this is usually a standard american beer like a BUdweizer or Miller is.   They have an amazing ability to sell pee-pee in a can to people.  I don;t understand.   Try a German brand

hefewiezen - this is a light wheat beer.  It's often unfiltered (cloudy) and served witha lemon in restaurants.  Served ice cold it's very refreshing.  Much lighter flavor than lager.


Sake

Don;t be cheap.  Next time you go to a Japanese restaurant, try a "cold" sake.  The ones served ones are usually the higher quality ones.  The heat up the cheap ones to improve their taste.  Here's a short primer: Sake Primer  You should be able to find a ginjo sake.

Cheers,

Pork

Well, we were very close.
