To uphold my namesake, lets talk about another nice yellowy liquid called Champagne, I once drank the stuff and I really liked it that was ages ago so wanna know from you guys what champagne you drink. Which tastes the best, which is best price/quality wise?
My maximum budget for a bottle would be 20€/30$, so gimme some brands and I'll go look for them in my local stores,
regards,
Dick... errrrm Pfiemelcheese

I never liked champagne. It smells like asparagus pee to me. I never had the good stuff tho, mine was always cheap. No drinky-poos for me.

You buy Dom when you go clubbing? I have never met anyone who has ever done that. Dinners, and a upper scale bar yes but not a club. That must be one expensive night.

Im not a big Champagne drinker.
I know Ive drank some expensive wines and champagnes (my uncle is like Fraiser, you know the tv show character played by Kelsey Grammar) but still, Im not a big fan of it.
Im more a beer guy. I'll celebrate wilth a 12 pack rather than a bottle you know?

I would rather give a moose head than drink moosehead. But I love MGD when I'm not having girlie drinks. Somehow I end up with ciders, or other fruity mixed concoctions.

why not, moosehead is an enjoyable yet unremarkable beer. Especially if you are looking for a "regular" beer. Myself, I like the dark stuff. Canadian wise that's Waterloo Dark, Amsterdam Nut Brown, Mill Street Tank House Ale/Coffee Porter, Sleeman Dark ... there are lots of local beers I like that are local. But hey, I live in an apartment and I have to carry all my empties back to the beer store for the deposit, tall cans are just more efficient and dark imports happen to come in those 
But there is still no Canadian 'Stout' beer, which is why I <3 Guiness
I don't mean to shit on you Syco, I know you're not a fan of ^^. Still, you tried Steam Whistle lager? That's pretty good 
oh, and on topic champagne tastes like piss which is probably a fetish enjoyed by those who actually like drinking urine.

Its all good man. Im not a big fan of dark beer. I mean, its not bad, but I like the clear stuff you know
Steam Whistle is pretty good tho. I drink it occasionally when I hit the bar, if i feel like switchin it up.
But still, I love moosehead. Always have. I used to drink nothing but Blue until I decided to give moosehead a try because someone recommended it. Been drinking it ever since.
I find it tasty and crisp and filling. Doesnt make me piss like a race horse like most other beers.
I also enjoy Wildcat Strong (i think thats what its called, the red box wildcat)
Guiness aint bad tho. I do drink it occasionally. Usually if other people are drinking it then I will join in. But if im making a beer store run, im gettiin moosehead or MGD.
You know what beer I hate the most? Molson Canadian...tastes like ass to me. I dont know why so many ppl like it. |

I can't even tell you the last time I've drank a "Canadian" or whatever bullshit they're trying to sell based on being a ridiculous nationalist. I actually like 'Ex' too...
My beer tastes come a lot from the fact that dark beers tend to be less carbonated than the rest, which makes my stomach happy. I take drugs for that problem, which is awesome btw. No matter what I eat/drink, there is no heartburn ...

yeah, I was eating Pepcid Complete by the boat load... went to see the doc and he gave me nexium.
I have a reflux problem (got an appointment for an Upper GI Series as well) and nexium basically stops your stomach from producing so much acid, so basically I still have the reflux problem but it doesn't burn... just occasional unexplained nausea/cramps etc.
I love not having heartburn, but taking a pill everyday isn't exactly an ideal solution. I basically have every bad eating habit in the book (not eating regularly throughout the day, eating late at night, tons of coffee and alcohol, lots of spicy food, etc.) so all those need to change :/
