Oh...I forgot mention that the tank itself has developed a vodka habit...although the tank likes to cut it with a bit of vinegar and sugar.

Nice job Untamed. If you like dark rum, check into a little gem called Stroh. It's from Austria of all places. I developed a taste for it while skiing in Europe, the Austrians use it to make a hot beverage called Jagatee. Very potent (80%). I could do one at lunch and go back to ski the afternoon veeery welaxed. If you dared to do two of these at lunch, forget about skiing the rest of the day, it would be extremely hazardous to yourself and most probably others.

Generally I quaff a beer when I'm tanking (reefing? aquariuming?), but I also like wine, a single malt Scotch on rare occasions and of course the odd Stroh rum. It's hard to source though, so I'm quite frugal with the Stroh.

Well speaking from experience I have to 100% agree. I never ever liked rum until I went to jamaica. Infact prior to going we picked up a bottle of appletons. After trying that I said they had better make a good beer afterall red stripe beer and jerked chicken was number 1 on the list.I drank at least a three year supply of RUM it was sinfully good the sooner you get to Jamaica the better mon!!.

Interesting, whenever I go to the bar and ask for a porn star, the drink mixed with sprite is what they give me.

Wow what a turn out! I didn't put diet Pepsi or tea or cocao because the thread is called name your POISON. But maybe I should have added the coffee with International Delight because to me that is poison.

Untamed, your Barquarium puts mine to shame but I have to say great minds think alike.

We had one of our reefer meetings in Vancouver some time ago at a restaurant called "the Reef". It was basically Jamaican/Caribbean food....

Anyway...we sit down and instead of a wine list, they give me a rum menu... Best restaurant ever!
