Overrated Alcohol

[Darlantan]

Carlsberg seemed like the Budweiser of Western Europe both times I went.

I can say it at least applies to Spain. Sure, people drink Heineken, Mahou and some others more often, but among the massproduced laggers, most people consider Budweiser as one of the top choices. Yeah.

I'm also going to have to go ahead and say Wheat Beers are overrated. All too many times do I find somebody who says they like beer, only to hear them say "My favorites are like, Blue Moon" Or any Hefeweizen for that matter.

all the fancy vodkas... at least in the US. They are required by law to all taste/smell/feel the same, and in blind taste tests people can't tell them apart.

budweiser needs to get nuked by the taliban

I was thinking of changing this thread title to "shitty beers and liquor" due to the fact that a few of you went a tad bit overboard in the definition of "overrated" but I'm too lazy. I gave about five seconds of thought on the thread title whereas some of you gave hours. Keep up the discussion about the overatedness (or crappiness) of stuff that gets you drunk (which I'm wagering a few of you are already).

Best use for vodka? Make your own limoncello: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/a...ipe/index.html

Buy massive jug of mid-shelf, steep in whatever flavor you want, wait 2 weeks, save $$.

I have to say there are very different tastes between Grey Goose, Belvedere, Chopin, and Stoli etc. All the mid range like svedka and smirnoff also have a different taste and quality. The aftertaste as well as how it makes you feel are quite different as well.

Couldn't agree more. However, many people mix vodka with overpowering flavors (bloody marys, screwdrivers, redbull, etc) that makes it impossible to tell any difference.

Since you're a fellow Texan, have you ever tried Dripping Springs Vodka? It's my vodka of choice for at home now.

I've had both Dripping Springs and Tito's. I like them both, although dripping springs seems to be a bit smoother than Tito's. Less of the stomach complaining afterwards. Although it doesn't compare to how gut wrenchingly harsh Russian Standard is.

you best be trolling, waiting 2 weeks to drink something. Fuck that I'd rather be able to buy it and drink it then.

Anything by johnny walker, as for patron I love it.

explain yourself about the johnny walker.

as for patron it's owned by paul mitchell the hair stylist / hair product line. it's shit tequila bought at border distilleries and given a fancy name and has the price jacked up because they paid some rappers to use it in their songs. if you want some real tequila try Tezón.
