Beverages! Represent your country!

[subject_87]

Coca-Cola. As American as waging completely illegal and unconstitutional wars in Central America, apple pie, and killing your enemies in their sleep on Christmas.

 

[Hollock]

Screw America, I'm focusing on New England. Moxie, the first "most popularest soda" before you know what came in and took it's place. Now only sold in certain parts of New England, mostly in those ol' timey general stores. And it's not really good.

 

[JJMUG]

Feel free to guess where I am from.

Laos!

Bourbon, and Jolt.

As a Canadian, I will say beer.

 

[Hucket]

Being Canadian, I'm going to go with my favourite beer, Moosehead. However I can honestly say my nights have never been SOOO much fun as they have when I have a bottle of Wiser's Whiskey

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

I'm Australian so it's got to be a nice cold beer that isn't Fosters!
Being Victorian I'd have to say Carlton Draught because where I'm from it's either Carlton Draught or VB (much like Holden or Ford). In truth I prefer many other beers to Carlton but I guess it's one of the most iconic.

 

[Macgyvercas]

Either Coca Cola or Pepsi. I can never choose between those two.

 

[Nostalgia Ripoff]

Spoiler: *Ahem*

Why yes, I am American.

 

[Ashsaver]

I live in a tropical country so naturally there are vast diversity of food and beverage,so much so it's hard to choose just one to represent.

but if i really have choose just one i would choose my favorite, Roselle drink.

I'm British, so I would disappoint all our American friends if I failed to say...

And yes, the biscuit is mandatory.

I'm afraid this'll have to suffice as my response, too.

*adjusts monocle*

Hmm, yes, quite.

Spoiler: No offense, but

as a beer country, The US got nothing against countries like Germany, England, Denmark or Netherlands, for example. Beer has been made in Europe for centuries before America was even found.

OT: I'm a Finn, so

Spoiler: Also...

And

 

[BENZOOKA]

Well.. Im Danish... Sooo...

Beer beer beer beer... And more dull beer...
We have beer for everything and some seasons even get their own kind of beer...
Eating out? Beer... Eating home? Beer... Birthday? BEER!
Christmas, Easter, lunch? BEER!!!

Funerals?.. I kid you not, but it is tradition that the closest get together after the funeral.. To grap a beer and something to eat.

Definitely the best beer in the world, rather.

 

[astrav1]

Nothing like some good old American co co cola.

 

[C95J]

Ok guys, time for some liquid based fun!
[sub]...that sounds wrong...[/sub]

What would you say is your national beverage? The drink the majority of people within your country love. Whether it be beer (something specific please), coffee, Coca Cola etc.

I'm British, so I would disappoint all our American friends if I failed to say...

And yes, the biscuit is mandatory.

OH YEAH! I'm drinking a cup now!

It just makes me feel so... English

 

[C95J]

Although I can safely say the Worlds drink is:

Water

 

[PorkChopXpress]

Blanton's Bourbon...fucking delicious

I remember trying that a couple of months ago after my dad found one in an old timey supermarket and was telling me about how it was popular before Coca Cola came in. It tasted like shit.

Australia. We have the monopoly on good cold Beer!

Though despite common foriegn opinion no self respecting Australian will drink a fosters let alone feed it to our dogs!

I'm glad someone cleared that up. Our big selling domestic beers are not very good though.

Our national drink is a ho-hum lager hopped with pride of ringwood. The brewer varies from state to state, but with only marginal differences in product. Only one large brewery makes really good beer. Coopers in Adelaide makes a (truely) world class Pale Ale, Sparkling Ale and Extra Stout. I'm not from Adelaide by the way. Generally the beer we drink is a hoppier version of american lagers. Don't get me wrong I like a nice crisp lager on a hot day, but the general domestic beers are not very good. You have to look around for more specialist brewers to get a good beer (or Coopers), but I suspect it is the same in the States, and getting there in the UK.

I would say that generally any beer from tasmania has a pretty good chance of being delicious, I'm not from tassie but a majority of the beer I drink is. Also V.B. is satan incarnate

...and i suppose a Welsh drink would be medd (mead). Not that I've ever actually ever drunk any.

Oddly enough, Mead is originally from China. Boggled my mind the first time I learned that.

You may be referring to Braggot, though. It's a Welsh mead.

It was actually from Egypt

Yes, I have a problem...
