I don't drink but since I can't sleep... I popped it open... not bad... mandarin/tangerine/valencia orange flavor.

It says 5% alcohol... is that really really really lite ? I think I can get used to this.

It's good stuff.
5% is OK. A little more than an average beer. If you hardly drink, 1-2 will do it for you.

It's not hard liquor. It's a malt beverage. Smirnoff Ice, Triple Black, Twists. Skyy Blue, Bacardi Silver, Bacardi O3. Thsoe are all malt beverages and all approximately contain 5% alcohol.

My problem with them is they're way way way to sweet. I can't see how a person can drink more then 1 or 2 of em.

I'd much rather have some Spatan, Hoegaarden, or Warsteiner.

My only other tolerable alcoholic drink was honey brown... not that I've tried a whole hell of a lot. I love how it makes me sleepy.

It tastes pretty good, but I prefer beer. My old drummer used to drink 2 24oz bottles every practice, he loved the stuff.

Honey Brown is really good too, not expensive either :beer:

I love them - I'd rather drink orange beer than urine flavored beer.

the difference between you guys and me... I get the asian flush ... hence I can't go with "hard liquor" or any strong stuff. I'm only halfway thru this bottle (it's been like 30 minutes) and I'm feeling pretty congested in the head... and sleeeee

i've always wondered, can you save unfinished beer ? (err, this thing in this case)... it's not the first time I've done this so I've wasted some in the past.

It will go flat and taste like crap. End of story.

Apparently you've never had the beers I've listed. While not strong by any means, they do have a decent flavor to them. I haven't quite worked my way up to microbrews yet.

I don't know, these drinks are girl drinks. I have had them every now and then, they're ok when teaching a younger person to drink, when drinking with someone who doesn't drink often, or just when you're thristy. Even if they can be useful, they are not ok for getting drunk, grow a pair and take a shot or something.

I've taken 7 shots of vodka in a 45 minute span. I woke up with the worst headache in my life (think it was comparable to my severe migraines) and swore I would never do that again. I have that biological problem linked above too.

BTW, I have popped a few open just because there were no other drinks in the house. Needed to quench my thirst. Funny thing is alcohol is a drying agent.
