Yuck.. Berentzen is hardly better then moonshine like stuff made by people who have little understanding of distilling....

Dimitri57 please approve that this discussion is valid research for LRH and of course in no way off topic ;)

Mmmm German Apple Korn. I spent 2 weeks in Germany every six week for two years. I don't think I sobered up the two weeks I was there.

has been nice update so far with plenty of funnies and obvious (aka dumb) questions, main story advances slowly but at least that allows mc to have time with his future old ladies. i hope willow becomes more confident in future.

Anyone in particular you are looking for? :unsure:
I wanted to know if in future updates there will be content and continue the relationship of these, like Anya, Jessi's half sister, Charly and Ashley and other women who only made a few appearances like nikki's friend and I apologize if I don't know the names of the characters, I'm horrible at remembering names. XD

If you're familiar with Pratchett and Discworld, I wonder if that's the inspiration for "scumble".:ROFLMAO:

So we're talkin' vodka and no one shares their favorite brands? For shame. A buddy of mine turned me on to Luksusowa a while back, and while Polish potato vodkas often have a bad reputation, it's pretty hard to beat at the price point. Price has been creeping up over the years, to the point that it's 50% more than it was 4ish years ago (though what isn't?), but people seem to have caught on because it's sold out often where I am. Had to switch to Wheatley, which is fine.

As an aside, Tito's is dogass and Kirkland's yabba dabba doo bottle of American corn liquor that they're calling vodka is just as good (if not better) for half the price. The French is slightly better, though more expensive, but I'm not enough of a savage to pound straight vodka so it all comes out in the wash.

Hmm.. If it's savage to pound straight vodka, what is it if you pound straight tequila?
I feel like Tequila is more of a shot oriented liquor. Don't get me wrong, I can think of a few mixers off the top of my noggin; Tequila sunrise, bloody Maria, margaritas, however there's a whole ritual around doing Tequila shots and I don't think anyone would refer to it as a "neutral spirit", like how Vodka is often referenced.

I did that once with a bottle of Captain Morgan and woke up at 3am to puke up blood. Feel like I got most of my desire to binge drink out of the way during that time period, which, ironically, was before I was even legally old enough to buy my own liquor. :ROFLMAO:

It goes down smoother if you keep it chilled. (y)

The scene with MC drinking vodka with Larisa is as real as it gets if you drink with Russians. You can use a anything you want as a chaser, but they will give you the stink eye if you mix it. Especially if you're a big American. ;)
I learned to drink it straight rather than deal with the smirking.

Luksusowa is really good for the price. We had a bottle of it on every table for my stepdaughter's wedding. (We bought six cases, and it was the cheapest vodka we could find at the time that you could drink straight).

Kettle One (Dutch vodka) is good but it is pricey. Not as high as Grey Goose but tastes the same to me.

If you can find it, Russian Standard is probably the best cheap vodka hands down. A lot of liquor store stopped carrying it after the invasion. We keep a 750 ml in the freezer at all times.

One that I recommend that you never drink even if you can find it is, "Black Death Vodka" it comes in a black 12 oz pop top can with a skull wearing a top hat on it. It's supposed to be a premium vodka, but it is better suited to use as paint stripper as far as I'm concerned. :sick:

I don't drink much vodka anymore unless friends or family come over.

These days, I'd rather sip on my Hendrick's Gin (Silky smooth Scottish Gin) :cool:(y)
