I’ve been drinking bourbon and vodka on the rocks for a decade and have never heard of a so called “chaser”. Is this a zoomer thing?

>>19895192
It's for people who can't handle the taste of whatever cheap whiskey they can afford.

It's more a child thing rather than zoomer thing,

>>19895173

Yeah it’s something people who never learned to drink do

Miller light was first created in the mid 1960’s at a diet beer for women. Miller purchased the failing brewery and did the reverse of the bud light marketing strategy during the 80’s.

This
Sipping on a neat whiskey is an instant giveaway as a someone who has his taste buds ruined by binge drinking

well as a young to middle aged man you only really have a certain amount of acceptable things to substitute for your lack of personality. so you end up getting into something like whiskey tasting, or bbqing, or cast iron pans and making it a core part of your life. not me though, my only hobby is being gay

>>19895241
You forgot coffee.

>>19895182
ehhh, nicer stuff sure, but cheap shit? I need a chaser. I don't drink cheap shit often and I can't stomach straight johnnie walker red for example. Let alone actual cheap swill.

No kidding you're not trying
You're not trying at all

>>19895173
I only do that if I need to drink it all at once to get very drunk very fast.
when sipping there's no chaser required.

>>19895173
Why would I want to get the flavor of whiskey out of my mouth?
Chasers are for women.

>>19895236

Oh hey, it's another
>I can't comprehend that different people have different genetics which leads to differences in their perception of taste
thread.
Personally I've always liked the taste of alcohol, assuming it isn't bottom shelf trash loaded with sugar and artificial coloring etc. I even enjoy sipping on vodka as long as it's not bottom shelf plastic bottle type stuff. The one major exception is gin, but that's more to do with all the herbs and juniper and shit they infuse it with making it taste like Pine-sol floor cleaner.

>>19895173
>implying
Not much of a straight scotch/bourbon/whiskey sort of drinker, but I certainly don't need a chaser (except maybe for tequila, not very nice on its own). For some reason out of all the spirits, vodka is the one I most took to for neat sipping. Sake is also pretty nice, but australian prices make it an unappealing buy for the alcohol to cost ratio.

>>19895512
i don't sip alcohol except gin. tanqueray or new amsterdam with ice
bombay sucks

>>19895173
Stop buying cheap whiskey.

Decent whiskey doesn't taste bad. I don't know about scotch but you can get a decent bourbon for $25. No excuse for using a chaser.

>>19895552
It's pretty hard to fuck up bourbon due to the regulations put on it. Has to be aged minimum of 2 years but if its aged less than 4 years it requires an age statement telling you it's only 2-3 years old so most places age a minimum of 4, and can't have any additives, just whiskey aged in oak barrels, and that's its. Evan Williams BIB is my go to for a cheap bourbon, and you can easily find it for like $15-20 depending on taxes.

>>19895532
New Amsterdam vodka is what homeless bumz buy for special occasions or after a successful smash and grab in a hotel parking lot.

>>19895592
To people who aren't used to higher proof bourbon: sometimes the cheap ones can feel like they burn too much; if that's the case just try adding a small amount of water to it (just a few drops can work) and it will mellow it out for you. Do that instead of using a chaser.

>>19895173
Whisky is one of the few liquors where price really determines the quality. Don't buy swill if you're actually looking to enjoy it.

>>19895610
Even somewhat nicer stuff burns a bit much for me personally.

Woodford Reserve is my go-to for bourbon, but even that I usually sip with a coke on the side.

>>19895337
nah it's just a hobby for me because I'm not good enough to do it full time professionally, know'm sayin?

>>19895173
I don't know dude. I truly enjoy whiskey so I can't explain this behavior.

>>19895173
Liquor is nasty shit. I'd take a 15pk of Beast Ice for $10 over a $100 bottle of whiskey any day.

>>19895226
I stopped drinking Heineken when they moved production to Mexico.

my list of favorite sipping whiskey for on the rocks:

Suntory:
Yamakazi 12 year
Hakushu 12 year
Hibiki 12 year

Nikka:
Coffey Grain
Miyagikyo
From the Barrel

Dalwhinnie:
15 year single malt scotch

Stranahan's:
Diamond peak single malt
Mountain angel 10 year


I didn't include anything that's hard to acquire, if you're looking for good sipping whiskey just try these. Miyagikyo is my favorite overall with hakushu 12y being second.

Why are you drinking something if you don't like the taste of it

>>19895188
Sounds like you've only ever had shit whiskey.
I drink my whiskey with ice and it tastes nice. Amrut fusion single malt whiskey and tenjaku are the two relatively cheap whiskeys I have in my cabinet right now.
I also drink my chateau de breuil calvados with just ice. The 12y vsop version. Some anon rec'd it to me for the annual sora no woto stream and I enjoyed it enough that I always keep a bottle stocked.

I hate putting ice in whiskey, it just waters it down and forces you to drink faster. If I'm going to use ice then I'm going to make an actual cocktail, otherwise I'm going to drink it neat so I can fully enjoy the flavor.

>>19895173
You do know you're allowed to put water in it, right? Professionals will tell you it tastes best at 37.5% alcohol, but you can dilute further if you want.

>>19897787
Whiskey is best at 50% or higher

>>19895226
HEINEKIN? FUCK THAT SHIT.

You don't hate being alive enough to where you'll do anything and everything to literally drown it out for a few blissful moments. And for that I envy you, bitterly.

I don't get this chaser culture. No one was chasing every shot twenty years ago, you were a fucking pussy if you needed a chaser back then. Now everyone takes a chaser to the point where people think you're trying to flex your masculinity if you don't take a chaser. My personal theory is that zoomers use weapons grade marijuana and pressed pills instead of drinking so when they do drink, they can't handle the taste of alcohol and have to mask it. Wheras older generations started their substance abuse with alcohol so they quickly became used to the taste of alcohol.

>>19897918
I've been drinking alone in my home for the past 10 years. I wasn't even aware of this chaser culture thing. Good thing I'm autistic.

>>19895173
Anyone else trapped in Whiskey Hell (your local liquor stores' inventory are almost all whiskey, but never the flavor you actually want, and everything else in the store is beer)?

>>19898037
The only decent liquor stores to me are at least 30 minutes away. Their selection is decent at least and I can find most things that I want.

>>19898040
>>19898037
What are liquor stores, is it an American thing? I buy my whiskey at the supermarket.

>>19898041
They're stores that just sell alcohol, of all sorts. In my state it's illegal to sell liquor at grocery store and you can only get wine and beer.

>>19897917
The trick is to start drinking Lagavulin, actually

>>19898042
The online stores only give a generic inventory, too. so you don't get an accurate representation of what they places actually have in stock

>>19898052
I had wanted to pick up some Old Grand Dad 114 since I keep seeing it shilled here but online I couldn't find it anywhere that lists their stock. I did find Old Grand Dad Bonded though so when I went to get that they had 114 too, they just didn't list it. Bought both of course.

>>19898054

The perception that whiskey is hard to drink and everyone is just pretending to like it is so bizarre to me considering bourbon is eternally popular and aside from Jack Daniels it literally tastes like sugar and spice and everything nice.

For whiskey? Why? The aftertaste of whiskey in your mouth is great.

>>19895202
Oh, so you mean that chasers are for people who buy garbage whiskey that tastes terrible because they are too poor to afford anything with any taste. Thanks for the clarification.

Maybe vodka is higher priced in the US than other countries. In the US, the poorest drink malt liquor.

whiskey is so sweet and sugary already, I would understand if it was paint stripper or something, this makes no sense though

For me its wassail

>>19895182
I drink my whiskey neat, but I often drink water alongside it.

The reason to drink water as a chaser is that it lets you clear your palate so you can fully focus on the next sip, rather than lingering on a previous one.
It also helps me pace my drinking, which matters when you get good stuff that costs an arm and a leg.

>>19900583
If you don't like it, you don't like it. It's similar to drinking coffee black or eating really dark chocolate in that it might be offputting to some, while others will love it.
Personally, I like how it adds a bit of sharpness and bite and how fermentation can produce some unique flavor profiles.

>>19901098
A controlled amount of water can make whiskey better. Ice cubes don't control it well, and the alcohol quantity decreases over time.

>>19900583
No

>>19900583
>alcohol
Not all alcohol tastes good, r word.

>doing shots is degenerate
This can be true. Getting a buzz on right away is nice and all, but it's pretty much abuse on the body. If you're about to go into a club, and you're at the beginning of your bar night, go for it, though. Just don't slam down a glass or act outrageously low class.

That said, the ultimate chaser scenario is more like a follow-up sipper. I adore a smooth tequila reposado, but I love the lime-chili burn of a really delicious sangrita. From the blender, it's almost like pureed thick salsa, with fresh flavors of lime, and tingle of chili peppers, and freshness of the herbal cilantro. Bite of salt, softened sourness by sweetness of fresh orange juice. It's the perfect shot and chaser. Almost a bloody mary but has that OJ and fresh onion component.

>>19901842
it's really not the same, the bitter compounds in coffee and chocolate are in the <1% range. whisky is at least 40% ethanol, which completely eclipses any taste that the other 60% of the drink may have. idk why people need to cope about this, alcohol doesn't taste like anything other than pain, just admit that you want to get drunk.

>>19914781
It's fine and good for its price point, but it's very much on the cheap side of things. So objectively, in the grand scheme of whiskey, no it isn't "good". But taken in the context of its price bracket, then sure it's fine.

It is. If you're new to bourbon you may not like it immediately. Just sip on it and take your time.

>>19916074
(cont.) Also just because it's decent doesn't mean you'll necessarily like it. People have different tastes. Bourbons don't all taste the same.

Early Times BiB -- Good
Evan Williams BiB -- Average
Old Forester 100 -- Average
Old Grand Dad BiB -- Very Good
Old Grand Dad 114 -- Very Good
Wild Turkey 101 -- Good

>>19917720
i'm almost out of liquor i might try old grand dad when i need a new bottle

>>19917729
Trying it won't hurt your wallet at least

>>19917743
for sure. i've been waiting to try four roses for a bit (another praised bourbon that isn't available in nips for some reason) but grand dad gets so much praise on here, i'll try it

>>19917688
OOOOO MY GOD
>mfw the verif is GYMMH so now I go to the gym

>>19917762
That's why I tried it too, because I kept seeing it shilled here lol

>>19895173
>drinking something you have to immediately chase down to get the flavor out of your mouth and throat
to get drunk.

no matter what anyone says.

>>19918027
At the end of the day, if whiskey tasted exactly the same as it does now yet had no effects on your body or mind, people probably wouldn't drink it all that much, so I think you're right

>>19918037
I often drink whiskey without even getting a buzz.

>>19898096
Jesus, how much is a bottle of Suntory near you?
A bottle of Toki is about $34 before taxes where I live.

>>19918002
>i see it being shilled
>so it must be le good
I never, ever want to see you fags fucking say "ur schizo lol no one shills or advertises here" as you fucking mongrels admit that that's all it takes and you're, by your own admission, buying it due to that. How gullible. Just everyone take a look at this shit. THIS is NPC behavior.

Going to get a glass of Lagavulin just got you lads.

>>19918052
When I say "shilled" I just mean that I read several posts saying that it was good, not that there was some kind of advertising campaign. I consider posts here closer to something like a personal recommendation rather than a TV commercial.

>>19918068
case in point
you're simply a retard npc if you buy based on other peoples "recommendation" alone

>>19918068
>I consider posts here closer to something like a personal recommendation rather than a TV commercial.
That's a hilariously naive way to think. I'm sure no marketers also caught on to that kind of thinking and try to slip in marketing as being more "personal". You're fucking idiots.

>>19918074
>>19918075
Whatever bro, I got a new bourbon out of it that one's of my favorites now. Suck my cock.

>>19918044
NTA, but this is my pricing in a fairly wealthy suburb.

>>19918080

Oh sorry didn’t realize you were a woman.

>>19918099
>t. 40% ABV scotch child

>>19918101
Excuse me sweetie I’m drinking a rye old fashioned

Anyone here tried Puni Alba?

>>19918103
I like old fashioneds as well (I make a bottle of simple syrup for them that I keep in my fridge) but the few ryes I've tried were not that great.

>>19918112
>puts syrup in them
Maybe you'd like some wine or a fruity cocktail since you're evidently a homosexual or a woman.

>>19918115
I used to follow the "correct" method with a muddler but it's too much trouble and doesn't taste any different.

>>19918112
What rye did you use?

>>19918122
I've had Rittenhouse and Bulleit. The only one I put in an Old Fashioned was Rittenhouse.

>>19918127
I like both but prefer Bulleit. Have it in my bar.

This is really good

>>19895192
>bourbon and vodka on the rocks
this sounds disgusting

Would you pay $40 for this drink?

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/IdokcoWjy04

>>19918339
No, I never use ice (outside of an old fashioned) because it just waters down the whiskey

>>19918037
>if whiskey tasted exactly the same as it does now yet had no effects on your body or mind
Seconding the other anon. Unless I down the whiskey in under 5 minutes or it's 50%+ ABV, I don't feel it.
You're meant to take your time and enjoy it, not quaff it like a cheap beer or shitty vodka.

>>19917895
I don't understand what my post has to do with that lmao

>>19917688
This shitpost is a work of art.

how do I make myself more susceptible to alcohol?
meaning aside from not drinking for a month
my liver is too strong, sometimes I wish I was asian so I could just buy one bottle of whiskey every six months instead of having to drink ~300ml before I even notice anything

>>19895173
>ALCOHOL FEEL GOOD BUT TASTE BAD
>REEEE MY AUTISM CANNOT INTO UNDERSTANDING

>>19920808
it's not your liver, you're mentally naturally psychedelic

>>19920808
>how do I make myself more susceptible to alcohol?
1. Drink on an empty stomach.
2. Chug, don't sip.
3. If needed, chase with no more than 1 oz of non-alcoholic juice/soda/whatever.
4. Finally, allow at least 15 minutes for alcohol to absorb before diluting stomach contents with food or other drink.

Is Old Tub Bourbon any good

>>19921388
It's simple and sweet. It's a Beam product, so expect that characteristic peanut note. Decent value for a $20 bottled in bond, hard to go wrong really.

What spirits would go will with high-caffeine coffee beans for homemade liqueur

>>19900583
It doesn't. Don't drink for the taste, it's for the affect. Although there are some liquors that actually do taste good but they are few and far. Still haven't had a good beer tho.

>drinking something to chase down bad feelings

I drink bottom shelf vodka, coka cola or miller as a chaser, it makes me comfortable as fuck for an hour... happy hours. I get giddy. Alcoholics high is the blues and bliss at the same time. Just perfect. Sleep later, buzz now.

selling your alcoholism as a virtue that manly men do is literal marlboro man tier clown shit

Hello malt-mates!

What mental illness causes Reddit to want Rums that taste like mouthwash?

>>19924047
It's not manly specifically, adult women should be able to drink as well. Only children can't.

>>19895182
>>19902943
>>19895207
I think some people just have different tastes for different liquors. EG, I have never needed a chaser for straight whiskey, even the cheapest shittiest whiskey. But I also can't drink straight tequila, even expensive top-shelf tequila. Maybe some people are the opposite and just can't do whiskey?

Go back to Bountiful

Has anyone tried this? Friends and I picked up this at the gas station

>>19924349
Check the abv, the Fireball they sell at gas stations is a special version with a lower abv. Regular 35%abv Fireball is good.

>>19924257
remember we're on 4chan arguing with some of the biggest spergs on the planet. yeah personal taste varies wildly and not everyone loves certain alcohols straight up. like I love sambuca chilled on the rocks but I know all anise alcohols are polarizing
only time I've ever done a chaser was when my bro convinced to try pickle juice after a shot of whiskey. a decent combination desu but I'm not usually a shot drinker.

>only time I've ever done a chaser was when my bro convinced to try pickle juice after a shot of whiskey.
ngl that sounds awful. If anything I would need whiskey to chase the pickle juice.

>>19897736
>He doesn't have booze rocks

>>19924441
Honestly I see no reason to chill whiskey at all. In a cocktail it's fine but if you're drinking it by itself room temperature is ideal.

>>19924448
I would say slightly chilled is honestly better.

It doesn't need to be cool/cold, but ~58-62f would be nice, a few degrees below room temp.

>>19918127
The best cheap mixer rye for cocktails is OF100 rye

>>19895173
I was just thinking about drinking some brandy, and I love the flavor.
No chaser for this one.

>>19924522
Not available in my area (neither is WT101 rye coincidentally)

>>19924422
I thought it would be too but it worked shockingly enough, but I also love pickles regardless

>>19912110
>"Whiskey Hell" zones like British Columbia where whiskey makes up 3/4 of a store's inventory,
Funny thing is that the whiskey selections are still fucking shit there

Underrated

>>19895592
I remember buying that once before an exam. Didn't check the proof of it, got so wasted had to give up 30 minutes into the exam. Was fun, failed the whole thing however.

>>19924349
Really sweet, super popular among college students. If you're just trying to get fucked up it's fine but not really enjoyable as a regular thing. I've bought shooters of it a few times for concerts. Jaegermeister is tastier IMO.

Remember that quite a lot of the United States is a theocratic shithole where they make it illegal to sell a banana and a bottle of wine in the same building because otherwise the devil might get your soul.

I'd sacrifice a goat if it meant getting Mr. Black up here

Coffee rules applies to Alcohol, if you can't drink it unadulterated you don't like it.
It's fine to not like things. Just don't drink it if you don't like it. Try something else.
