UPDATE: The Guinness Surger is coming to America!

It will only be available to bars, which defeats the point IMO, but I work at a bar, so there is a good chance I can get one along with the canned beer from there.

I've seen some mixed reviews on it, so does anyone from Europe have experience with one of these, and if so, are they as awesome as they sound?

@KJS: This is an excellent idea. I will participate as soon as I find a pub that doesn't serve half-assed Irish Car Bombs. A 1/2 pint of Guinness does not an Irish Car Bomb make.

I'm pretty sure it's extremely rare, if it even exists in America. I've lived in New England all my life (One of the more Irish influenced areas in the US) and in three years of barhopping up here, I haven't come across a bar that does car bombs quite right. There's a lot of reasons I can see for this:

1. It'll cause a fucking mess. Serving a car bomb in a pint glass tends to result in a big mess unless you're a good hand at it. In a bar setting, 9 times out of 10, you're going to end up with Guinness all over the floor if you're filling a full pint, like you should be.

2. It's a good, quick buzz and it's hard to keep track of when the bar is busy. I've been to some bars that don't even serve them on extremely busy nights, as it'll get some people too drunk too fast.

3. Some people simply do not know how to drink a fucking car bomb. Time and again, I've seen someone drink half of it, stop and then finish. This is bad news. If you can't handle the full pint in one go, drink a bit of the Guinness on its own before dropping the shot. The last thing bars need is a bunch of idiots doing this and then all getting sick at once. I've seen it happen at parties and this is why I will not serve someone a car bomb at my apartment unless I've seen them do it right before or I really, really trust them.

It doesn't help that a lot of bars just don't seem to know how to make one. I had an occasion up in Lowell, MA where I got some coworkers and friends together for a going away party for when I moved to Boston. Five of us ordered car bombs. The bartender proceeds to make each car bomb individually and drop the shot glass in herself before moving onto the next. Fortunately, my friend Mike and I were the only ones paying attention to this and I grabbed the last one as she dropped it and he ordered a separate one as he'd been late, so ours were fine, but the other four were fucking rank, apparently.

I've never done a car bomb, because I am against them on principle.  I am generally not a fan of mixed drinks, especially mixed drinks involving beer.  I get that you might need to mix liquor with something to make it more palatable, but dammit, if you're mixing beer, that's just silliness.

That's terrible. How could anyone not know that Bailey's will curdle, let alone a bartender?

Really? We have 2 in Atlanta that I know of. One is in a trendy section of town and overcharges for their ICBs ($ for the pint, plus the cost of Jameson's& Bailey's), and I refuse to give them money.  The other is temporarily closed due to some licensing issues. If and when they reopen, I'll be a happy man. $2 pints and $6 Car Bombs is where it's at.

Well, there's a few other variations as far as explosions and shit, it's not just a Guinness thing. There's the Irish Train Wreck (whiskey glass dropped into a pitcher of Guinness and passed around quick), Tijuana carbomb (Kahlua and tequila dropped into Mexican beer), Jamaican carbomb (rum and rum cream dropped into red stripe).

ps. gewurztraminer is such a perfect grape, and i love hippies; you should remember the name of that vineyard, please!

It was Navarro Vineyards late-harvest 2006 Gewurztraminer. It cost $30 in Atlanta, so probably $25 or so outsideof a majorcity.

I will google said bottle to see if i can find it in nyc. on a sad note: why is shipping wine so expensive? i have so many gifts i have to give across the country, and the one thing that i know aside from literature is wine. no one reads the books you send them, but everyone drinks the wine you give them.

i gave my friend a book about shakespeare sr. year of college for her birthday. five years later we're having lunch together and someone uses the quotation "out damned spot!", and she not only doesn't recall the play, she also doesn't know it's shakespeare. yes, there is a chapter on that quotation, haha/:sad!

edit/modify: I've googled said bottle, and it sounds delicious. gewurtz is truly a noble grape. "lychee" is one word that triggers me to think "you may love this wine!"

Five of us ordered car bombs. The bartender proceeds to make each car bomb individually and drop the shot glass in herself before moving onto the next.

That's terrible. How could anyone not know that Bailey's will curdle, let alone a bartender?

If and when they reopen, I'll be a happy man. $2 pints and $6 Car Bombs is where it's at.

i quit intentionally hanging out with my friends who do carbombs because, when I reached age 25, i realized there is nothing in my life so sorrowful, that I need to resort to conducting terrorist attacks against my own body.

when they say black and tans. they mean the kind from the cans. we don't got time to mix it all together. i'm a very busy man, man. she says i kinda dig the awkward silences. because i grew up in denial and went to school in massachussetts. he said hi, i like to party on the problem blocks. and i can't stand it when the banging stops.- craig finn

this is in the running for my favorite lyric of the 2000's.


so slight topic change: how do people date when there is no alcohol involved? apparently, i'm doing it because i've been seeing this girl for over a month now, and somehow, it has only involved a bar ONCE. it feels like high school. i think it works though because she's as smart as i am, which, normally, is not the case (which is generally my fault). edit/modify: being able to talk about the same things is apparently a wonderful thing. who knew that there are females who want to hear about the symbolism of the crying of lot 49!

edit/ps: I am kind of dumb.. it's just that i have bad taste in women and life.

Why should alcohol be a major part of dating? Do you need it to have a good time? Does it make you a more interesting person? Not really. It generally makes people do silly things that they regret in the morning. I would have thought that not drinking would be a good thing in dating, as they get to know you, not what you do while drunk.

Hell, I am not an expert at dating, and I hardly drink, but it seems to make sense this way. I have seen too many people get drunk, make out, then regret it the next day. Or they will not remember what they did the night before, and find out they ended up cheating on their boy/girlfriend.

The last two days have been pretty excellent. There was beer, there was a cute lady, there was a jazz concert, and then there was a goodnight kiss (oh shit my first ever what). The following day consisted of makeouts.

tl;dr if you drink beer you will have makeouts.

I feel like I recently graduated to a whole new level of being incredibly fucked up. I've been abusing substances to such a ridiculous degree even I've started to get worried. On the bright side, I've been doing it out in the real world, with real people! So you guys have been free of my abuse, which I think makes everyone happy.

Actually I should live forever on the internet. My sporadic posting as of late is mostly due to me spending time developing a bot that will post for me after my inevitable overdose. It's a fairly simple program, I mean all it really has to do is disagree with Tommy, make fun of everyone with less than 500 posts or a year on the board, and occasionally post pictures of giant horse cocks.

That is both a terrifiying and awesome scene. My faveourite part of the movie, actually. I was disappointed the new version didn't have that bit.
I loved Gene Wilder in Alice In Wonderland, and also Blazing Saddles. I mean, he was creepy, but also good! Apparently he had cancer. I thought he was dead, but is still alive!

Oh, topic of thread. Apparently I am going out tonight. My housemates have bought beer and goon, and I have vodka, so I may post in here properly later.

yes, but the "me" they get to know is obsessed with things other than them... i.e., i would never want my daughter to date someone like me. i'm obsessed with work, i drink slightly too much, and i'm entirely superficial.

the sober girls have not worked out for me, but the drunk girls have... so it is unnerving to see a sober girl enjoy my sober company.

god I hate Gene Wilder

I still don't understand your reasoning behind having to get drunk to have a successful relationship. They would have to see that obsessive side sooner or later; might as well see it from the start, upfront and honest-like. But then again, it sounds as if you've found someone who likes you anyway, so, uh, good for you!

Also, my night is going to consist of reading textbooks. No drinkin' for me.

Blazing Saddles

I am going to be honest here and say that neither of us were drunk by time the makeouts actually occurred, so yeah, I'm not an alkie.

Why alcohol is seen as leading to relationships: lots of people are afraid to tell the pretty chap or lady they like that they like them. Alcohol provides them with both the courage to do so and the ability to cover it up as not being that important if they are rejected. Also, a lot of socialising takes places around alcohol - therefore you meet new people and so on.

The only ever 'date' I have ever been on involved the pub. I find it's a fairly relaxing, not much pressure place to get to know someone, more so than dinner or something would be. Plus, the alcohol aids conversation.

I'm more saying that you have to give each other a little buzz to have a successful start to a relationship. You know it's usually going nowhere when you ask someone out, but you do it because she looks good enough and you maybe have one obvious thing in common. the older you get (i'm 26) the more nights you just need to get touched and rub up against something plush so to speak so the more this happens, and alcohol makes it easier for it to happen.

grabbing a drink together is such a safe date. if it sucks, then you gulp your drink and leave. if it doesn't she may have enough that she has an excuse to sleep with you or see you again. wash rinse and repeat about four times before you stop calling each other.

My friend was trying to date someone who was 20 this winter, and he asked me, "Do you remember what we did on dates before we were 21?"

it's so hard to meet people when you're out of school. most everyone i know works until at least 8pm if not 9:30pm so it's not like we can do the stupid NY Times' "how to meet people" suggestions like joining a co-ed softball team or whatever. the only things that are open when you get out of work are the bars. so you go to work, go to the bar, and go home.

typing this is depressing me. i've only met people because of work for nearly three years now. i should go back to grad school just for the dating.

Oh man, I had this page opened from like 2:30AM to somewhere around 4AM*.

My parents went out of town for a few days, so I invited three two friends over(stupid hangover chris counts himself as a friend). We got a 24 pack of budweiser(blech, but the only thing I could get at that time of night). I had 12 of them because my friends egged me on once I was a bit drunk. I downed the last 4 and spilled some on my jeans, which I just remembered I need to wash now. I said some stuff**, and now I'm apologizing over MSN. I drank some Listorine to stay drunk when my friends were gone, and that's sad.


ALCOHOLING IS FUN?


*I have no recollection of when or how I went to sleep, though I remember most of the events that night other than that.

**Not bad stuff, but it was to a girl, and I'm certain I made an ass of myself.

are you serious about the listerine thing? that seems so dangerous. i've never even heard of it happening in real life. apparently i'm going to the wrong parties haha.

i made dinner for a friend last night (shrimp linguini with a caper, white wine, and chive  butter sauce that was stellar). she paid for the ingredients, too, which was quite a good trade off. we rocked an sardinian vermentino and then a Alsatian pinot blanc.

she got drunk enough that she, like you, called the next day to apologize for everything she didn't remember saying. haha :0).


ps. may i ask how old you guys are?

i was more concerned with whether or not my continued detailing of which wine i was drinking might be appreciated (or whether or not it would be considered to be obnoxious to talk about things other than tall boys and jack). 16yr olds don't tend to enjoy a bottle of Gigondas alone on a Saturday.

Sadly, I can't drink this weekend because my doctor said I was in the tail end of an intestinal virus. SWEET!

ps. i lied, i don't have a doctor... or health insurance! i have a friend's dad who diagnoses me over the phone :0/

My friend was trying to date someone who was 20 this winter, and he asked me, "Do you remember what we did on dates before we were 21?"

Go out for food, head back to his place.  If he needs alcohol to have nerve around women, then have a bottle or two of wine handy, and watch a movie that is good, but not so good that you will mind missing the end (because of makeouts, woo!)

I haven't dated anyone under 21 since I turned 18, so I have much experience when it comes to cross-legal age dating.

There's this one guy at my mum's Friday night dinner group (I go most weeks) and he is always drunk and when he's drunk he smokes inside and smoking inside is not only inconsiderate (I would not like to share the cancer, thanks) but illegal. I wish he would go away. I told him to fuck off when I was pretty buzzed this week and I'm really happy with myself.

Man, guys, please tell me why the fuck you would get drunk off your ass when you are sick, especially when that sick is a sinus infection? Where is the sense in that?

People self-medicate for all kinds of things.  Including sinus infections, apparently?

Drugs don't have to cure your symptoms to be effective

its like nyquil. nyquil doesn't make my symptoms go away, I just stop giving a rat's ass about them because all i can think about is why nyquil comes in red and green instead of blue and red and why it tastes like red and green instead of real flavors and all of a sudden five hours have gone by but it only seems like 45 minutes and my breath has gone shallow and I see movement at the cornerof my eye and i hate time dilation and robotripping is not fun.

I am not sober! Drunk enough to be fuzzy at the edges, sober enough to be able to type as well at I normally do!

Best kind of drunk, beccause I can talk to people and say things I normally wouldn't and they can understand what I am saying.
