I'm interested to know how this JW blended is kinder on the prostate, having had a bit of trouble there myself

Coffee and Coca Cola is my poison

Coffee and a glass of milk are my poison.

One cup of Coffee, water, and cranberry juice are it for the remainder of my dotage... occasionally, I'll lace the water with Rose's limewater...leftover from my sorely missed vodka gimlet daze.

From unfiltered Blondes to Dark Ales depending the weather.

[Ostfriese]

Whisky/Whiskey.



"Bushmills Single Malt" (from Northern Ireland) for the more common affairs, Islays (Scotland) for the rarer events.

Ok. Johnny Walker Red Label.....I mean you can get Black Label and now Blue Label....but that's really expensive stuff ( for me anyway ) . I like Red Label....my dad used to drink it, so family tradition maybe

Without getting into medical details here, nowadays I prefer spirits, you get the same "bang for your buck" plus a hell of a lot less liquid for your prostate squeezed bladder to hold. And also I find spirits work better with some medication. No details here cause what works for me might not work for others.

Back to booze.... A neighbour of ours was a Regional Sales Manager ( half the planet ) for a famous Cosmetics company , tall attractive blonde, and she could drink any guy under the table. Oh god...these are funny memories. There was only 2 units on our floor and we had keys to each others units ( as friends do ) , and Miss L used to just barge in half sloshed from work, T shirt and knickers only, cigarette dangling from her lips, ashtray in one hand, bottle of wine in the other, and just plonk herself down on the sofa, whining about work and totally oblivious to what she was interrupting.

I used to like Pusser's Rum (in coffee on the boat), mead, Guinness, whisky, gin, schnapps, Eiswein (when I could get it), cider, a home-made limoncello (made by an Italian friend), the cloudberry Finnish stuff and aquavit. Ooh, aquavit.


Now I'm not a drinker I like the alcohol-free versions when I can get them (the Guinness one is outstanding and the alcohol-free Tanquery gin is really good).


I use drydrinker.com and it's a lifesaver on those Sunday afternoons...


I noticed when I was in Praga a while back, that they had a lot of alcohol-free beers on draught, which were really good.

[Eichhörnchen]

It seems to have taken a long time perfecting the alcohol-free beers but there are some very satisfying lager-types such as "Perlenbacher" (from LIDL)

I have no idea whether you can get IPA style or dark beers alcohol-free

[ExFishermanBob]

I don't work for these people or anything, they are just who I use (in the UK):

Have a look at the beer section - all sorts (and the Insel-Braureri ones are really good).


The best thing is, you can drink as much as you like!


Some (I think Finnish) brewers have managed to develop a yeast that produces almost no alcohol, so their beers really are beers, as it were. For me anything is better than orange juice and lemonade or other sweet stuff.

Since I went teetotal about 2007 it's just tea or coffee, before then it was a pint of beer and on special occasions it was washed down with a glass of brandy.

When it comes to beer i pefer chech ones, much less bitter than the usual "Pilsener" most beers are based on in Germany. That said there are a lot of bavarian "Helles" non-Pilsener beers and i recently came to like them, too.
When it comes to harder stuff, i like scottish single malts but they are getting expensive since "brexit". Cognac is very good of course but also expensive. I keep those for rarer events, or meetings with (old) friends.

For "vespertine" (does one really say that?) drinking (ahem) i prefer chech and bavarian beers when thirsty, and some spiced rum at times.
"The Kraken" is ok, and sometimes i drink this ready-made spiced Montoya rum-cola lately. Not good i know
