Vernors makes me choke

[radar44]

They make GREAT targets but that's about it.

The same goes for about 75% of those energy drinks ... BLEEEHHH

Why do we drink Vernors? So we don't turn into a bunch of nancy-girls!
Seriously, I always liked ginger ale, but when I got to the midwest and found Vernor's I was home! I also have a buddy that brings me Ale 81 from Kentucky. It's a good burn.....

The spicy stuff is ginger beer and not ginger ale, isn't it?

The only difference between ginger ale and ginger beer is the name. Look at the ingredients and they're the same thing. Just a regional/country thing, like soda and pop.

Seriously, pop open a can and immediately take a gulp and it will choke you.

I think there are evil spirits in the can.

I picked up a ginger beer from a produce store down near Vincennes a few years ago... One of the "we actually have a nice building to come inside of" establishments that are along US 41.

I had to force myself to drink it. It. was. hot. Not at all a pleasant experience. I think I nursed it most of the way back to Indianapolis.

And, if I have anything to say about it, it'll be my LAST ginger beer!

I did not know that. I've had some pretty spicy Ginger ale/beer and wheeeeeew it can really burn.

There isn't technically a difference between ginger ale and ginger beer, although most of the time, a ginger beer is associated with "spicier" drinks. The biggest difference is between "golden" ginger (like Vernor's) and "dry" ginger like (Canada Dry). Goldens are sweet and more like a soft drink whereas dry's are usually used as mixers for cocktails. Dry ginger ales are produced in MUCH higher quantities and goldens tend to be regional.

I'm a brunette so I always figured it just wasn't formulated for me.

Women are brunettes. Men just have brown hair.

I knew something didn't sound right when I wrote that.

I like the Cranberry Canada dry.........with vodka.

Vernor's is the best. I always liked ginger ale until I moved to the Detroit area in the nineties. Then I had Vernor's...

It's the only way to go.

Hey Print, try it with some Admiral Nelson's. You'll be hooked.
