Beer!

Need some feedback here. Im going to Florida for vacation and I may drink for the first time ever. What is a good thing to try to get a good buzz but not drunk? Whats a good thing to get drunk? Whats a good thing to get plastered? I figure Ill try a wine cooler first then go from there each night. My wife is going to do this to. Thanks.

you'll probably wind up drinking to much and throwing up Has happened to the best of us. If you want to get a buzz... have a beer or 1 drink, if you want to get drunk, have like 3-4 drinks beer or mixed drinks, IF you decide to get plastered, anything much more than that will make you meet the porciline gods( thats where you meet fate at the feet of the toilet bowl) keep us posted

So whats the difference in a wine cooler and a beer?

How intoxicated you get is entirely dependent on the total amount of alcohol you consume, not what type of drink you have. I'd stay away from liquor if it's your first time drinking, just because it's hard to gauge how much more you need to be drunk.

Beer is usually around 5%-5.5%, although some are less. Wine coolers are more around 3.5%-4%, if I'm not mistaken. Wine coolers also tend to be in smaller bottles like 10 oz. or so, unless that has changed. I had a friend in college that would always get them.

My suggestion is don't get something as girlie as a wine cooler, but not something quite as harsh as a beer, since you're not used to it and you plan on proper drinking. Get something like a Smirnoff Triple Black.

I dont do the girlie drinks well they make me sicker than anything. I think it is because they are so sweet. I hate vodka, I drank way, way to much one night. Now I really like a shot of jack with a chaser shot of diet cola. I can drink that easier than beer.

Beer is my favorite type of cheap alcohol. Although a really good red wine over a meal can't be beat. I'm not a fan of liquor as it tastes horrible to me and beer is so much more smoothe on the stomach.

I'd recommend marijuana over alcohol anyday, though. It's also great for hangovers, just in case you get one.

Stupid question...but, how will I know Im getting drunk or almost drunk? What are some of the effects Ill start to notice? Sorry for the questions, but I really dont know, Ive never been effected by any substance ever.

You start to feel warm and tingly. Things move in a warping way. When you're really drunk it feels like you have been spinning around, getting dizzy. You start taking a piss every 5 minutes. If you're Asian(or Native American), your face will get flustered. It becomes really hard to walk.

hennessy

Well if you wanna get buttered easily, drink a Cameo 40 oz. If you just want to get a cheap buzz, why drink, it's a waste. But I suppose you are safe with Zima or a wine cooler.

Well cmon now Kal, drinking isnt all together about just getting wasted, at least for a lot of people it isnt.. A lot of people enjoy beer and wine and spirits just for the taste- there is a lot of complexity there apparently.

Im outta college now, so Im trying to control my intake when I go out and booze with friends- I drink better beer and less of it, so Im not just drinking tons of coors light or some other shitty beer to get trashed... Im afraid those days are over for me now- no more 40's or other malt liquor for me , I really hated that shit anyway, the liquor- not the drunkeness...

Moderation is the key word for me now as Im realizing im kind of an adult now, however unfortunate that may be , and Id like to be a bit more responsible..

Of course its my boys b-day this monday and ill be in AC soooooo moderation might go out the window for that night, but for the most part Id have to say you can appreciate the booze for more than just the fact that it gets you whacked.. And as i said earlier:

I think its the fucking best beer ever, WINKLE knows, though the alcohol content is only around 4%. Must be the Irish in me.

shit 40ozs, I go waay back with them. I still fucks with them though, brings back memories.

I am a beer advocate. If you want beer, stay away from cheap beer unless your only motive it intoxication. Otherwise, try a nice pale ale. I have no idea what Florida has, and I also know that by the time I post this you will have experienced whatever it was you were trying to experience.

My point is this. Good tasting beers do exist.
