Beer vs Wine

[VinceV]

Umm, might want to be careful here.

FETT drains the sack.:ROTF: :ROTF:

I read cheap wine has chemicals and phosphates in it. Any truth to that?

[ABSOLUT CHARVEL]

I'm good for a Chardonnay, but that is about it. it is so Muffy & Biff with the sweater over the shoulders and tied around the neck, that i never got in to the wine life style.

[VitaminG]

hehe. The "wine lifestyle". Do you mean the tweed jacket & school tie, setting up the picnic basket on a blanket in front of the Mercedes to watch the local rugby team play with the wife in her best Sunday dress lifestyle?

I'm just as happy with a glass of red or a bottle of beer when I'm blackening steak on the bbq. It's all good to me. I'm no collector, don't have a cellar or buy vintage wine to drink in 10 years time, but I like to have a few bottles in my meagre wine rack for when I'm in the mood.

Riunte on ice, so Nice.....


i can't get into the snob thing, but I have a few wines that aren't ridicuously priced or give you a hangover.

Fett, how can you not have a blazing hangover with all of those cheap wineboxes? My worst hangovers were
#1 Thunderbird,
#2 Boones farms
#3 Fransia White Grenache
#4 Pabst Blue Ribbon (I drank 4 and thought i was going to die the next day)
#5 King Cobra and Old Engish 800

IMHO, Vodka works best. Potato wine, mmmm...

Box wine....*shakes head*

I can't swallow any wine that tastes like crap. So, minimum $15 a bottle for me. Then again, I don't really like grape juice either, so perhaps I'm a bad wine judge?

Beer FTW!

Both are great, but never combine the two in the same drinking session, If you're drinking beer, stick w/ beer, (hard booze, okay too) but wine definitly, stay with just wine, the real question is, beer or ale?

[UFORocks]

Not a wine person myself, and if Im gonna drink wine it wont be out of a box. Miller light: great beer pong and pizza beer, I can drink a lot of this near water beer. Flying Dog: my new favorite. Pale Ale with Pizza and other junk food, and Amber Lager with a nice steak (and I dont mean the $3 Fett Special ). For hard booze I've gotten a taste for Captain Morgans Private Stock and Grand Marnier (sp). I cant drink whisky, it gives me a serious hang over.

I used to drink wine a lot but now I like beer the best

[richardlawson]

Beer. Then wine. Then beer. Followed by a speyside simgle malt. I'm drinking Heineken mostly as they have finally started selling the proper stuff in the UK. For years you could only buy Heinekan Export here, which was a brewed under licence- a parody of the real thing. Once that agreement ended, finally the real stuff could be sold here. Great simple beer.

Life´s too short to drink bad wine.

[fett]

Here, in the US, one of the supermarkets I go to has allocated so much space for wine it's obscene. There are always 2 or 3 guys dicking around with the bottles. They are the poor detail men who have to figure out how to highlight their lines of wine . There is so much shit out there how the hell does one know if that $15 bottle of wine is any good? I just don't go there. Box; bottle; boda bag; jug or whatever, I like my wine as cheap as I can get. That way I won't be dissapointed.

Beer!
