So I was thinking that perhaps we could share different things concerning drinking techniques or recipes for mixed drinks or anything of the sort. We have international status and maybe we could learn about something that we haven't heard of.

For instance one thing we used to do in college (I have heard it called a few things here in the states, Rootbeer Barrells and Rootbeer Floats) is to obtain about a case of beer, a bottle of rootbeer schnaups, some shot glasses and some drinking glasses or mugs.

You start by pouring 1 beer into the glass/mug.  Then pour your shot of rootbeer schnaups and drop the whole thing, shot glass and all into the beer.  It will sink to the bottom.  Then, BOTTOMS UP!  Chug the whole thing and enjoy the deliciousness.(If you do not chug the whole thing in one go then you are immediately shunned and your manhood is put into serious questioning for the rest of the evening)   My friends and I turn it into a race although it may not start out as such.  Everything seems to turn into a race the drunker you get I realized.  

CAUTION:  Be careful how strong the beer is you use!  They get on top of you before you know it!  We made the mistake of using Natural Ice the first time.  It's amazing how few of these it takes before you are passed out naked in the front yard with "CUNT" writtin in huge permanent black marker across your forehead.  It's also amazing how long it takes to scrub permanent marker off so that you can go to work the next day.

Hahaha, brilliant!

this thread is fantastic

I never take gin or vodka because of manhood factor. I generally mix whisky with beer and after taking it the feeling is marvellous.

I drank vodka and Ecto-Cooler (80's babies remember this green stuff no?) the first time I got drunk.  I looked like The Exorcist throwing up all night.  Since that day I can no longer drink vodka.
