I'm new in my development and last night was my first association meeting... Ended up going to a bar to have a couple beers with some neighbors I had met at the meeting and wound up at one of their houses where we drank scotch... for about 4 hours.

One of them is first generation Scottish... the other is first generation Irish... Needless to say, I lost.

*ugh*

Thank God I work from home and not in an office... It would have been a bad scene today.



I'll save you guys the effort.

Ouch that sounds rough. Not doing so well today here either. Had a few Cherry Stouts and Two Hearted Ales last night and I'm dizzy as shit today.

Dunno how I'm going to make it to the Division Ale House tonight for the Jameson girls.... I'm going to need some recovery magic.... Any suggestions?

I haven't had a drop since last Saturday night. Let's just say Sunday was a day to relax on the couch.

I have made the last two hungover at work threads and I am trying my best to not let it happen for the rest of the year. Too much year end stuff needs to get done.

must have drank some cheap scotch, good single malt scotch doesnt have residual sugars, so its almost impossible to get hung over from drinking good scotch, trust me, ive killed many bottles in my day and cant say ive been hung over once from it

I'm not useless. Just dizzy. I can still surf and post on the forums just fine.

I beg to differ. A couple of years, I over-consumed Macallan 21 and felt like killing myself the next day.

Of course, if you consider Macallan 21 cheap scotch, you play in a different league than I.

Macallan 21 is pretty good, so maybe I've build up enough of a tolerance to it, or maybe if you drink enough (of anything) you are gonna feel like crap the next day no matter the quality

I think I know what you mean, but I take issue with the word cheap. The price of a whisky is not necessarily a good indicator as to it's quality. I can get scotch that is as good or better than Macallan 21 for a third of the price (Aberlour A'bunadh for one). Also, as I'm sure you know, some whiskys are better younger, and some older. E.g. many people prefer Lagavulin 12 to their 16 yo offering. Of course in the end it all comes down to personal preference.

I've never heard of, nor seen Aberlour A'bunadh. I'll have to try it.

Lagavulin 12 is my favorite single malt. I wouldn't say that I like it better than their 16, but the price premium for the 16 isn't worth it.

Same can be said of Jameson 18 and Middleton. The 18 is my favorite Irish whiskey. Middleton is awesome, but not worth the price premium.

Sorry OP, for turning this into another whiskey thread. Hope the hangover is subsiding some.

Aberlour A'bunadh is a cask strength, sherry bomb, spicy, ass kicker. It's about 60% abv.

Thanks, it has subsided a bit...

And it is pure dehydration that did it, not lack of quality spirits. It also didn't help that I did it on an empty stomach.


We drank (small pours, but we made it through the list a few times I'd bet)

Mac 10
Mac 12
Mac 15
Mac 18

Glenfiddich 12

Glenlivet 12

Dalmore 15

Balvenie 12 (Double Wood)


They also had some Lagavulin a a few others.... but I'm not into really smokey, peaty scotches. My God, the thought of even having to smell one of those right now makes me nausious.

Thinking about drinking all of those in one night is making me nauseous, and I'm not hanging. Glad you're still alive.
