What's in your glass?

Nero d'Avola. Too much of.

 

[Voley]

Mmmm. This is bloody lovely.

 

[Voley]

Three for a fiver in the Co-op just now. Nice but a bit fatal at 6.5%. I've had four pints and feel pretty wankered already.

 

[ViolentPanda]

A wonderfully-flavoured French beer called "Biere des Sans Culottes La Blonde Legere". low-to-medium strong (6%) , medium hoppy, dry finish.

Hardy's Shiraz Cabernet, a nice drop. I've stocked up as it's a good deal at £4.50 a bottle in Tesco's just now.

I like the sound of that. Revolutionary zeal / wearing no kecks: a winning combination, surely.

The labels are a bit "cheeky".

I love it but it's broken my daughter

 

[Poot]

Sloe gin. Before that I had a cheeky amaretto. Got home from babysitting and am winding down. All is silent. I love this time

 

[JimW]

Few bottles of Bath Ales Gem to celebrate getting to Wembley.

 

[BoatieBird]

The last of the Silent Pool gin & fevertree tonic.
It's a little stronger than I'd normally make it, but the choice was 2 weak or 1 pokey as fuck.
*cheers*

 

[discobastard]

Magic Rock Grapefruit.

 

[blairsh]

Trendy tins!

Rum.

 

[Rebelda]

Rum, ginger beer and angostura bitters.

Got some Iron Maiden 666 ale in for the footy later

I'm drinking Negronis.

I'm using the double-shot measure.
I know I'm not a drunk, because I'm using the measure.

Fresh squeezed orange juice, with the bits. I meant to use the zest too. I even washed it. But then I forgot.
Equal (double shots) of
Sweet vermouth
Campari
London gin
Topped up with fizzy water. To make them long.

And loads of ice.

a can of nelson mandela

2011 screwtop St Emilion I had "laid down". I think I paid 8 quid a bottle - which is almost a shock thinking about it as I've been drinking Aldi's cheap blended Merlot and Pinot Noir for so long.

It has matured and is very nice - though I'm not so certain about it - it tasted totally like a mouldy cellar when I first tried it and I liked it for that reason.

It's now got more fruit, and a little more acidity and tannin.

It takes a day after opening to start to be the way I like it.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Pumphouse Pale Ale. It's alright.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

La Grille Rose d'Anjou. Very nice

Bathtub gin. Just realised it makes me violent.

 

[Virtual Blue]

Glass of Malbec.
And a beer to follow.

 

[Cid]

Unsweetened sloe gin and tonic. Not bad really. Not bad at all.

 

[Greebo]

Gewurztraminer Domaine Paul Blanck et Fils, Alsace 2013, Apellation Alsace Controlee. A very pleasant drop to wash down some pork in hoisin sauce.

 

[wayward bob]

soave. first alcohol for a week and i'm not planning on finishing the bottle.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

This. And very nice it is too!

I'm in Seville, somehow, and I'm at the lower end of a bottle of La Mancha tinto that cost less than 2 euros at the supermarket. This is the life. With the Copa del Rey on the telly, too.

 

[quiet guy]

A bottle of Aussie Shiraz.

Jesus, I started this thread in 2008. My poor liver! Eight years later, and I fucking hate chardonnay, nasty shit. I'm on Italian Pinot Grigio now. Never buy Argentinian pinot grigio, it'll strip the skin off the inside of your mouth

That's strange. By a coincidence I was drinking Chardonnay last night. I had gone into my local for a pint of beer but it was not quite up to scratch so I changed to white wine. It was fine.
