Ja-Bull!

Jaegerbombs?


Yes, the same thing. Depends on the bar you go to. A few years back at the beach, they called them "Ja-Bulls" before they got popular as Jaegerbombs.

Jagermeister is nasty.

Tastes like black licorice to me and I hate that stuff.

In Germany it is one of the most ignored drinks in any bar and most pubs don't even bother to stock the stuff. Most Germans when asked say they do not like it or even drink it. It is the German equilvallant of Old Milwakee (Dont drink beer but everyone tells me Old Mill is the worst).

Here's an old (and shoddy) video of us at the beach drinking the mess. Yes, this is a bar, and yes, it was a toga party.

There is just something about it. Regardless of proof, it seems to be very potent. It could taste beter though...

I find it pretty tasty, it reminds me of aguardienta (bad spelling) which is bascially Colombian fire water. Same basic flavor, very good when cold. There is a different kind of aguardienta for each "state" in Colombia so there are varying flavors but they are all similar to jager

Jagermeister is the devil, I have no recollection of many nights due to this vile drink. Doesn't mean I'll stop drinking it though! And no worries, I would never drive.
