Bourbon or Beer - which is best?

**Flatcap** · 20th June 2006, 19:54

I got in an argument at work today over which is the better refreshment - Bourbon (aka Bourbon and Cola aka Woodstock) or beer.

Being in the 'refreshment' industry my vote was of course for the extensive and deliciously refreshing range of beer available to us all. However I faced the assertion that all bikers drank was Bourbon and Cola.

Is this true? are you all slaves to this Southern Floozie?

Bourbon with gingerale is better than with coke

Bourbon and Coke has all the style and great taste of a turd on your pillow.

brandy is pretty good with gingerale too..

..but as Burt Munro in The World's Fastest Indian says (which i agree with).. Tea is good..

This thread is just sad. On so many levels. I could make a sweeping generalisation about folk who drink RTDs or use ginger ale as a mixer in anything other than Stones Green Ginger Wine. But that could be unkind and cause them to unnecessarily ruffle their hoodies.

Bourbon & L&P is nice......

Burbon... but that my have something to do with the fact that I hate beer... (long story)

I don't like the canned stuff though... I mix my own burbon or drink it on ice. I prefer half burbon half coke mix with coke zero (normal coke is too sweet) I don't know why but I find the mixes with less burbon and more coke very difficult to drink.

As I recall, Hitcher, you are an aficianado of Single Malt Whisky - good choice

...but you cannot condemn those of a less mature palate for enjoying their poison.....

Oh buggerit - I agree - you may as well drink turpentine if you are going to drink an RTD

Dear God- why would you mix Stones with anything other than whisky..?
