Drinking Poll

Ryguy · 11-13-2013, 07:20 PM

So I was thinking about drinking but I am home alone. And it got me thinking what other people consider "drinking alone" because I think everyone has their own opinions on this and what better crowd to poll that on here. So what do you consider "drinking alone?"

NickTurnon · 11-13-2013, 07:40 PM

I don't drink very often, but when I do. 50% of the time I am alone.

I always enjoy a small glass of scotch or whiskey when I write a big paper. I also like drinking beers while I clean the house or do artwork etc..

I guess that can be seen as unhealthy, but sometimes its relaxing and I don't really go overboard.

If you're getting pissed drunk by yourself often, you may have some issues.

I don't usually drink during the week at all. A scotch or two Thursday night at most. The weekend is another story. Ill usually stick to beer when I'm by myself, but I don't usually put a limit on quantity.

Happy hour every wednesday night, 3 apple martini's and 1 vodka/cranberry. It's my midweek excitement. I never drink alone though...

I drink all the time alone... I work out of town. I usually stick to beer when im just drinking and eating. I do enjoy a Dark n Stormy, Captain black n Ginger ale (regular cap works too... or any good rum), crown n cokes, and hard to pass up a good mojito if a place makes em right.

Mmmm-Dos Equis

I still don't know why they have him drinking the green. If he were really the most interesting man in the world, he'd be drinking the amber.

Waiz · 11-13-2013, 11:10 PM

Green is my choice, I think that is their better seller too

To me, the Lager represents a beer that can be consumed all day long. Whether you are playing on the beach, or drinking at the club. The amber is definitely a taste that doesn't appeal to everyone for everyday consumption. Not only that, but I don't really want to drink an Amber at 10AM on the beach in Cabo.

The Lager accounts for 70% of their sales, so thats why The Most Interesting Man drinks those.

"This year, for the first time, a few spots will run for Dos Equis Amber, a dark lager that accounts for about 30% of brand sales. "They say having a dark side will lead to no good. I certainly hope so," the Man says in one ad."

I wouldn't use sales to determine quality. There's a lot of coors light sold, and no one in their right mind considers it good beer.

I drink a lot of it, but its still crap domestic light beer.

andre12031948 · 11-13-2013, 11:29 PM

Just to help me swallow all those different colored pills.

Haha who said anything about quality? I am just saying that they are pushing the Green because more people buy the green more often then the Amber.

Most of my friends hate on Coors Light, but then drink Bud Light.. which to me tastes like 1/2 Coors Light & 1/2 Water.

If you want quality, I am a fan of Delirium Tremens. If you've never tried it, do so. Belgian Beer w/Caramel twist. So delicious.. But $$$.

Yardhouse won't let you do the half yard of it because the Alcohol content..

That Delirium Tremens sounds good. Next time I'm at yard house I'll see if they have it. It might be a regional thing but hopefully not.
