I like whisky, drink a good amount of bourbon and vodka too, but I cant mix my nightly libations.

My question is to you guys is the one I tried to threadjack on a post from Wheel. He said he had a Martini before dinner then Makers after. I cant mix my booze if I start on Jack I stay on it, cant do vodka shots, no tequlia no mixing at all.

I can hold my drink just cant mix it up.

How about you guys? Do you mix it up on a regular basis or like me stay with what you started with?

The two guys I hang out with one is a beer drinker so he doesnt count and the other guy is like me, doesnt mix during the evening.

Now thats a Wheelism!

That is really a great solution but I hate the "technicolor yawn" I always feel like i should brush and floss afterwards for my bride and that just takes too much time when i'm trying to get some!

Tequila is for girls though.

IME - Stick with one type of alcohol throughout the evening. Beer with a couple of shooters works well if you are seasoned, but keep the shooters the same. Mix-up the beers if you want (I prefer to stay with the same type of beer, ie. Lager, Pilsner, IPA, etc.) But for shooters, if you start with whiskey stay with it. Don't mix the hard stuff. Tequila on top of Vodka, on top of Whiskey, with a half-dozen or so beers = disaster! From my experience it all has to do with how your body handles/converts the alcohol to sugar/glocose.Throw a glass of wine on top of all that and you'll be huggin the porcelain bowl for sure.

But a quality Mezcal with an infused peyote worm is one way to kick-off an evening!

I, too, do not like to mix what I am drinking, although if I am drinking beer I can do shooters or have a glass of scotch (or a flask to sip from) along with the beer.

If I decide to drink a certain beer, I will not stray from that choice. When I was younger, it didn't matter. I'm damn near 42 and mixing just makes me feel like creamed crap the next day.

Funny Macs Im the same with beer too.

I have very simple beer tastes, I drink Sam Adams, Shiner Bock at home. If I have anymore then then two of any other kind I feel like crap.

Weird I think as I can eat just about anything and I dont feel bad but drink 4 beers of another brand? Makes me feel hung over in the morning.

If I'm drinking at home, I rarely drink two alike. I'll switch up from beer to different beer, or from beer to a mixed drink. I don't drink a lot, but I have a drink or two each night to quiet the voices telling me to kill. [whip]
