I see no reason to subject my liver to that. There’s so many other things that taste better.

90 proof is around avg for spirits. Regardless I'd still like to give a go.Mekstizzle wrote:

Booze is for drinking. Chants, games, pretty colors and fun mixes, etc. are for chicks.Vilham wrote:
Thats how absinthe is done... you dip a spoon with holes in it with a sugar cube in the drink and stir then set fire to the top and down it.TheEternalPessimist wrote:
Oh BTW if you have a problem keeping it down (quite a few people throw it back up straight away) just burn off the layer of pure evil that floats on the top.
Infact from the sound of it no one in this thread has done absinthe the way its meant to be done.
Being drunk isn't my goal when I drink. I'm usually doing something else enjoyable while drinking, like dinner with my bride, party with friends whom with I'd like to have a meaningful conversation, and even while gaming. Hence, I like my drinks to have a good taste and gradually move me to a buzz. This in contrast to insta-hammered shots that render one completely useless. Personally I don't see the point, but to each his own.Mekstizzle wrote:

Edit: I am a father of 2 young children and not in the college party scene so this could be why I approach drinking from a different point of view.

Ya know there's certain points to alcohol and not all of them are taste. I don't sit there sipping Vodka because I enjoy the taste...
Seesh, I always ending up blacking out with that stuff. I have a bottle of Hill's absinthe just like the one in the pic in the OP. Got it in Prague when I was there recently.
It's actually spelled Poitín, it's basically Irish moonshine except stronger and better and we had it first!Mekstizzle wrote:
