Rep Power: 13  | What I drink most is coffee and tea.
What I like to drink most is beer 
Heineken, Amstel, Grolsch, Dommelsch
When I'm in England or Ireland I drink Guinness and Irish Red. I like also wine, red and white. And fruit juice.
I'm not a lover of spirits |

I generally drink tea, but, since the Euroheel meet here, I havn't put the percolator away and have coffee about every other day. About tea addiction, I'm pretty sure I was weaned on the stuff. I can remember my mum giving my younger brother a baby's bottle with tea in it !
Alcohol for me is warm British beer, but so much is served badly it's not worth drinking. I remember the thread on the old board about Belgian beer (still have a copy in Notepad if anyone would like it reposted). I like a decent merlot grape red wine for parties (if I don't have to drive) and for the plum wine afficianado, I sometimes brew damson wine from the 4 trees at the side of my house.
Damsons are darker and smaller than plums with a stronger flavour. |

Rep Power: 13  | Beer, well don't drink much of it, but do like European pilsner styles.
Wine: a nice red anyday, Cabernet Sauvigion, Merlot Shiraz. When it's hot a white.
Coffee, can't go without my caffe latte's.

Rep Power: 26  | Well, I drink either ordinary lager or UK-style alco-gravy (that's brown beer or ale). I quite like some spirits, such as Jack Daniels. I also drink wine, it all just depends on what mood I'm in. At the moment I'm working away from the office a lot, so I tend to collapse on the sofa with a can of lager when I get in  .

Rep Power: 0  | If there's no percentage on the bottle I ain't interested!! Jack Daniels, straight over ice suits me just fine  |

Rep Power: 10  | For me "Gulpener beer" is still the best. It's brewn in the most southern part of Holland (in Gulpen). This is also the part of the country where you are most likely to find it in the pubs.
A Bacardi-coke once in a while is also very nice.

Rep Power: 7  | What do I drink?
Healthy fruity smoothly. Pineapple-coconut and raspberry smoothly are my favorite.
I also like tea. All kind. Herbal tea, fruity tea, green tea, English tea, jasmine tea. I probably tasted half the tea out there.
I also like carbonated fruit juice. The 100% pure juice kind, not the one with sugar or diluted with water. I also like regular juice like apple and orange. White grape juice too.
Oh, and my regular, filtered water. |

Azraelle,
Are you sure that you take doses of 1.5 <u>grams</u> of L-Tyrosine, every 4 hours? Quite a hefty dose!

| 3 500mg capsules, no not a heavy dose;
studies have shown that ~200 to 300 mg of DMAE (DiMethylAminoEthanol) to be as effective as Ritalin among 6-12 year olds with ADD. In my own case (I have adult ADD), I have found a combination of 200 to 300mg Phosphatadyl Serine, 30mg of Pregnenolone, and 2500mcg Vitamin B-12 to be effective, pretty much all day, along with the Tyrosine at regular intervals. Yes it is somewhat expensive, but much cheaper than going to the MD and buying prescriptions for Adderall. Sorry about messing up the intent of this thread, won't happen again!

Rep Power: 15  | Coffee and coke causes acid in my stomach and I cannot stand the taste of tea. This leaves me drinking about 2 liters of mineral water every day. On the social side I like lager beer and can handle quite a serious amount (if required?). I also like good malt whisky but if thirsty like CC7, a mix of Canadian Club with 7 Up, very refreshing. As a "pousse" I like half and half which is a mix of Cognac and Grand Marnier in equal quantities. The mix eliminates the hard taste of cognac and the soft taste of Grand Marnier. Give it a try one day, you might like it.
