I've never tried Aberlour, but it looks like one I'd enjoy by the descriptions out there.

Well, since my bottle is "scotch" it says "whiskey" on it. I don't want to imply that different whiskeys don't taste different but it's the "same" kind of alcohol more or less (bourbon too, though it's made with corn mash usually, iirc).
When I make people ginger whiskeys out of my well I use Buffalo Trace, which is a bourbon, because it's basically the same thing, especially once you dump a bunch of ginger ale in there.
shivnz: the big fallacy of threads like this, is - well i dunno about you guys- but i have never in my LIFE been able to find a specific thread like this WHILE im drunk. i always give up after 5 seconds, pick any old thread, and just say "FUggit tihs thred will dO..."
so in that way, EVERY thread is potentially a drunk thread for me!!
and yeah, rum ftw :D Well you could favorite it or take your chances typing "drunk" in to GOg search.

I had never heard of ginger ale and whiskey as a mixed drink, so my immediate reaction to this fragment was to imagine a whiskey made with ginger. "Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter."
I'm on a glass of Breckenridge Christmas ale at the moment, but I have to say I prefer New Belgium's winter ale. This is too thin in body to be this sweet.

Do any of you match your drinks to the games your playing?
For instance, I like to play Tex Murphy with a glass of whisky (I know it should be bourbon, but that's hard to come by in the UK). I don't even like whisky that much, but it gets me in character!

So, I've been looking into the possibility of importing beer for personal consumption - as some of my favourite beers are not available around here.
But it's way, way too pricey. :(
First I obviously need to pay for the beer.
Then shipping.
A tax of $0.75 for each liter and alcohol percentage (so a case of 24 33cl bottles at 6,5% would be $8.67)
An environment protection tax of $0.89 per bottle.
A tax for single-use containers of $0.18 per bottle
All this is summed up, to give the value needed for tolling.
Then I need to pay 0,71% of the toll value (which includes the shipping costs) in food production taxes
And finally, add on top of all that a 25% VAT.
