Nope. I can take it or leave it.

I'd prefer a drink of milk, TBH. 🙂

Dry white wine, 1 bottle doesn't touch the sides, 2 bottles lasts an evening but I feel fine the next day, 3 bottles gets me pretty pissed and I feel jaded for a couple of hours the next day, 4 bottles and I behave like an asshat and don't come alive until midday the next day.

Tequila

Usually served in a glass, with a dash of tequila and a sprinkling of tequila.

Absinthe == bad

One particular night in a French campsite, many hours of lost memories, with photos to show what we were up to. The next day's hangover was hell on earth - couldn't even keep water down.

Bad. Can't go near the stuff now; even the smell turns my stomach.

Isn't a nemesis your arch rival you can never beat? In which case Martini is my nemesis, makes me yak.

Gin on the other hand would be my battlecat... if I was He Man 😀

The worst hangover ever. I was convinced my veins were full of iron filings. I've never touched it since.

I hardly drink now but in the past (15 years ago) I was a bit of a piss head.

Miller Lite as sold in Bury's premier night club was my nemesis 😯 , it turned me into a violent bad tempered idiot.

Vodka - Whenever I have more than a couple of shots my memory of the night before isnt clear.

Carolans Irish Liquor - Cant even stomach the smell due to one night with this. Smelled the same coming back up too. never again!!!

Ruby grapefruit Bacardi Breezer.

Not my tipple. But I used to work in a bar and I've seen what happens when the above makes a sudden, and unwelcome reappearance.

I think you've got the whole nemesis thing wrong Hora. You're not very bright are you.

I can't stomach the smell of brandy.I used to love the stuff until a nosebag-fuelled, weekend-long birthday binge ended me up with proper, honest-to-god alcohol poisoning. Oh, to be young and stupid!

A nice glass (or bottle or 2) of nice Shiraz is far more civilised

MIne are Hoegaarden and Stella - turn me from happy drunk to stupid, irresponsible, argumentative drunk. I won't touch them in the pub (well maybe one pint of Stella). If I am out with my wife I won't even have a sip of either.

Vodka, guaranteed hangover the next day. Can drink whisky until it comes out my ears with little or no ill effects.

I'm into, wait for it.. Tea Cocktails, Oh yes, I kid you not!

All started after a very long night up the Oxo Tower drinking that one they serve in the tea pot (can't remember the name but it's something to do with the proibishion (spelling!!))

Anyhoo's I've been finding recepies off t'internet containig all sorts of wierd/wonderfull ingredients and lots or either White Rum or Vodka..

No hangovers here as we're just going for the taste not quantity/vomit ratios, phah

Vodka, bloody hate the stuff, the smell, the taste, everything.

The other thing is a drink we invented in my student days, the Turbo Spritzer. In a pint glass mix 1 glass of white wine with 1 bottle of Smirnoff Ice. It actually tastes OK but the hangovers it leaves behind are enough to make a grown man cry.

Whats the plural for nemesis, since I have 2 of them?
I was at a party and thought that brandy mixed with baileys was a great idea, it resulted in 24 hours of missing time in my life. Theres a list of crap from that night that I´d only ever admit to in court.
And the hangover was like the return of the black death...never again.

Another one for Rum here

Brought back a bottle from a trip to Cuba (Matusalem) & it literally evaporated on the plane on the way back!

Well that's what I told the Mrs a few days latter 😯

Newcastle brown=arse of fire and head of hammers 🙁

Others I can't drink because of earlier encounters:

Pernod (ended up a pillion on a motorbike going the wrong way down the A1 - the person riding it had a full leg in plaster and we walked into a service station for food. Found a sheep in my tent the next morning).

Southern Comfort (got so drunk I actually missed an orgy going on in the same room as I fell unconscious in)

Tequila (walked out of a tree)

Not a drinker really but vodka hits the stomach and comes straight back up, pleasant for all concerned.

Rarely drink nowadays but I used to have to stay clear of Beamish as twice, whilst drinking it, I had to throw pants away after 'following through'

Flashy - On its own or as a Green Nasty? That used to be our first drink of the evening

Pint glass. 1 bottle of K cider (8% remember that stuff?), 1 bottle of Lowenbrau Pils, 1 double Blue Bols, Optional double vodka depending on mood

Used to turn your pint fluorescent green 😀

Out version of that was a pint of blue bols, gin and OJ, was surprisingly drinkable, and turned your poo green the next day, which was nice.

Even the smell of it makes me heave now.

Not found anything in particular that makes me any worse than anything else. although I can't stomach baileys/dooleys/corkeys, basicly anything creamy makes me gag.

Absynth though, even single shots gives me hangovers! Not as bad a taste as I anticipated though.

Had a mental night where i drank about 6 shots of it.

Either you've made a type and missed a digit before/after the 6 , you're a light weight, or you just dont remember the rest of the bottle.

Shot after shot of tequila with whole chillies, by bedtime I was projectile vomiting, even into my girlfriends bedside mug which she kept her gum shield in - she was not impressed.

And before you ask, she used to grind her teeth.

Generally a happy/sleepy drunk, but sherry probably qualifies as my nemesis.
Me and the missus drank a bottle of it walking back from Oban town centre to our campsite 3 miles down the road and then decided that as a) it was raining, and b) people were sleeping, that it would be best for everyone if we had the barbecue inside our tent.

McEwans Export. 4 cans of 'Red Death' give the worst hangover i've ever had.

As an aside, a drink which sounds revolting but is actually rather tasty is a Buckfast milkshake. 50% Buckie and 50% milk - genuinely tastes yum

Baz Bomber

Pint of lager with a double vodka and lime in it. Taste's like a lager and lime but you can only do this when you are 18.

I used to work in a bar in Perth where the pre-football crowd would drink snakebites where the lager was Special Brew and the cider White Lightening.
