    fair cheap buzz, but nothing a 3 dollar half pint of rot gut vodka wouldn't do, including a head ache, but i tend to get one if i stop drinking once i start


    a bit over hyped maybe i dont know, taste i think was like a sparkling wine with a piece of jolly rancher candy melted in it, did have a odd smell

    Thanks for the review. I think I'll stick to the beer.

    FDA recalled all the ones with caffeine. They were re-formulated without it. HUge fine if a retailer gets caught selling the caffenated ones.

    Hope your head is OK this morning![:D]

    No kidding, that caffeine is deadly stuff, I'm sure glad the fed is looking out for us.

    Aw heck,.....you didn't prove anything!
    An hour and a half to put it down.[:D]

    Like drinking a weak beer every 15 minutes. I used to be able to do that and not even catch a buzz.

    Next time put it away in 30 minutes or less.[;)]

    i dont think it took that long, i poured it into the wine glass i use any given night, actually drank it faster than i normally would, i did prove it was no different than any other bottom of the barrel alcohol, at least to myself

    as far as caffeine in alcohol, i guess no one has ever heard of "jager bombs" served daily in every bar i have been in, jagermeister and red bull mixed together, i call it speedballing for alcoholics

    Well, I was just going from the time stamps on your postings.[;)]

    I have heard of the 'bombs' you speak of,.......no thanks. I haven't had anything other than beer since I was 25 years old. Minus a glass of wine on occasion that is.

    Can't even do that anymore cuz my favorite wine is Cabernet, and it gives me acid reflux anymore.[xx(]

    i knew what you where doing [V]

    cant what say actual time was from "first sip" to actually drinking the stuff, till the can hit the trash, post may have been a bit delayed do to replies, and watching a movie


    i'm not much on beer, but thats why they make other types of alcohol



    edit: for argument's sake i drank it pretty much as i would do normally, i dont "chug" anything, if i did chug it, it wouldn't have been an actual comparison

    Only reason I was thinking of chugging one is because that seems to be what the young 'uns do.

    After I realized what the stuff was by the look of the can, I have seen a number of guys in their early to mid 20's buy a can, and chug it down in the parking lot of the convenience store in less than 5 minutes.

    Great thing to do, and then take off driving.[xx(]

    For tonight's experiment, you should chug a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 and compare the experience.

    Let me know when you want to "cowboy up". I pulled it off my shelves last year when SHTF, but I kept all of it[:D] I have about 6 cases of the ORIGINAL stuff[}:)] It is BADD * ifin you have already had a few drinks. One can puts you night night rather quickly. The grape is the best.

    You want,I should ship you a REAL one?[8D]

    Malt Beverage is not Grain spirits
    If it had liquor in it it would not be for sale in a gas station.
    Just find a diabetic friend and take it with insulin, b/c there is ALOT of sugar in there!



    Why is that?

    Gas stations are the only place I buy alcohol to drink.

    I don't know for certain, but I would bet money that drinks such as Four Loko are fortified. The brewing processes that would produce a malt beverage with 12% alcohol are time-consuming and expensive. I believe that Four Loko and kindred beverages are nothing more than cheap flavored malt liquor, with ethanol added to achieve the desired proof level.

    FYI, MD 20-20 is a fortified wine. That's why it is 20% alcohol.
