Ignore this and go back to the homepage if you're younger than 21 or the legal drinking age in your country.
Let's get one thing straight- I do not enjoy alcohol. I don't like the flavor, I don't like the warmth as it goes down, and I don't even like the "fun" part - the way it makes me feel. At least other than the comfort in social situations. I like alcohol the same way that I like my coffee: drowned in sugar and other flavors to the point where I can barely taste the base.
I just kinda like having opinions on things that I have no qualifications to review.
I don't know why I always go into drinking wine expecting something like grape juice, but I do. And this was, as usual, disappointing. I ended up pouring it out because of my roommates, but I took a final sip and it tasted pretty alright. I think maybe it gets better like a day or two after opening.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Yes.
This kinda tasted like if you mixed fresh lemon juice with sparkling water, minus any sourness. It was actually pretty refreshing, at least at first. After a few more sips it started to taste more like hand sanitizer. I didn't really get any buzz from it, in part due to the fact that a friend bought me thai tea when I got halfway through the can.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Maybe, but I gotta try more Chu-Hi.
I actually rather enjoy this one. Could be that I am, perhaps, a fan of ale. I also don't quite taste the apple in this drink, but it is definitely fruity. More like wine than apple. I also like that it doesn't really feel warm going down but warm once it's settled in ya. Had some fun drinking this on a quiet night alone.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Definitely.
They weren't lying, this is SUPER DRY for a liquid. I'm sorta stealing this from something I heard someone else say, but it's very SHARP when u first drink it. And then it just sorta fades out and disappears. It's a cool sensation, but I hate the taste. It kinda just tastes like sparkling water and hand sanitizer. What else is new. I'm willing to admit its probably a good drink, objectively speaking, if you're into the taste.
[0;33mWould I try this again? If I get used to beer taste.
I kinda wanna take back what I said about Asahi Super Dry because this one just kinda sucks. It's definitely got more flavor... I do enjoy the fact that it really does kinda taste like bread. And the pre-aftertaste is a bit.... caramel-y? It's pretty bitter which doesn't mix well with the alcohol taste if you ask me. Just tastes Yucky and feels too harsh.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Absolutely not.
I made no progress drinking this thing. This is the gold standard beverage that everyone raves about? Please. I'll never understand why this crap was just flying off the shelves a couple years ago. This tasted sorta like a nastier Redd's. Also, what kind of flavor is "Gold"? I'm assuming their flavoring makes about as much sense as Monster Energy flavoring.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Only through peer pressure.
I may just be a bit more used to wine now, but I actually really dig this one. I didn't pour a full glass because I want to be able to work on stuff, but the taste is really nice. It doesn't have the heavy flavor of grapes but has a nice sort of peachy-fruity taste. Definitely drink it chilled, it's very light and pleasant.
[0;33mWould I try this again? Definitely.
This is the one. This is now my go-to drink for when I get dragged out to the bar or an arcade or something. It tastes like a mocha frappe but with a little added spice (the vodka). It's so creamy and fragrant, I love it. This also showed me how much of a lightweight I am, how one glass will immediately make me annoyingly chatty and a bit woozy. I had to do a lot of walking after drinking this, which I wouldn't recommend. You should have one of these when you're chillin at home in your comfy chair.
[0;33mWould I try this again? I look forward to it.
