As mentioned on the 90% Lindt thread, mine is anything whisky based.

Alternated double Drambuies and double Southern Comforts on my 21st, wasn't very well. Oddly I'm fine with SC.

I will never again drink any of the alcohol that i have drunk before, i hope, as stale urine is not my favoured tipple

2 bottles of Quervo Gold, and the next 3 days laying in bed talking to a giant skinhead tomato in the corner of the room who was called 'Vince', has convinced me never to touch Tequilla again!

Southern Comfort. Aged 17 working away with two colleagues just outside Newcastle. Long nights of bottles of Newcastle Brown with Souther Comfort chasers. I swear I can smell it at ten paces now and it makes me heave.

When we were 14, me and a mate found 8 cans of Special Brew hidden in his mum's kitchen. Downed them pretty sharpish then passed out before throwing up a lot (naturally). Did have the odd can a few years back, but watered it down Shandy-style. Can't say I've the need to revisit it ever again.

Ooh, that's a good question...

Probbly that cheap muck we used to drink as kids, to get wrecked for little money. MD20/20, Thunderbird, Special Brew, Tennents Super, Kestrel Super, and worst of all.....

...Babycham.

We din't know any better. 😳

At Uni, I used to knock back the odd one or two Elephant Beers before walking to the first lesson. Truly rough stuff. Don't believe I've touched it since.

Going through difficult times at the moment so I'm down to one beer in the pub on Friday night. My mate is looking after the rest of my booze. I pop around from time-to-time to make sure he hasn't drunk it 😆

Baileys Cream stuff - it was the last shot of the 'lets try all those special bottles not up on optics' evening (about 12 years ago). Obviously what I tasted when they all came back up again, even Baileys Ice Cream or cheescake makes me feel sick!

Scrumpy style cider.

A night camping behind the Plume of Feathers in Princetown is the reason.

i rmember waking up with my head down the foot end of the tent and the strange coloured light made me think I had died.

I drank a load of grenadine once found in my Dads drinks cabinet...should have checked it had alcohol in first though.

I could drink it again I suppose...just don't want to.

After a night of many beers, it was decided to go to someones house to play poker for Jagermeister shots.
It didn't end well.

I still have hallucinations involving stags and glowing crosses.

Never, ever again.

It would have to be a life-or-death situation to have to drink the poison I had in a Chinese restaurant in Spain a few years back. They just called it "Very Strong Man", on account of only "very strong men" could stomach it. Tasted like a cross between tequila, cod liver oil and nail varnish remover. There were also a couple of dead snakes in there.

I spent about an hour laying face down on the beach until my stomach forgave me.

White Ace cider, because I'm not 17 any more.

3 of us each with a child travel card and £2 each=3 lightweights with fizzy ethanol getting hammered in the private gardens by the Thames. I got slapped in the face by a handful of daffodils by a pi55ed mate: not impressed!

I remember the tube riders at 11.30pmish looking at us like scum when my mate threw up noodles. They seeped back and forth in the floor grooves as the tube accelerated and stopped. Rank.

Tequila, glastonbury two years ago necked a lot of beer then hit the tequila lying down in caravan my bed was next to the door I was so blind drunk and felt the urge to be sick, I could not for the life of me find where the door was it was pitch black and I could no longer hold it in, I was sick everywhere including on my son. This was the Sunday before festival and had to put up with smell for 10 days. Chances are if someone passes a bottle round this year ill pass on it (who am I kidding 😀 )

whisky.

i've never had a 'bad night' on whisky - i can't drink enough to get drunk.

i kept trying it for a while - because i was assured that i'd eventually find one i liked, and it would be worth waiting for.

but i've given up, they all taste the same - which is to say: 'terrible - not unlike petrol'

and then shortly followed by a crippling migraine.

could not drink vodka for a few years, as I drank best part of a litre over an afternoon at v99. Some girls found me in a semi conscious state and dressed me up in their clothes for a laugh. I got the last laugh though because I puked all over them. 🙂

Creme de Menthe. Was already fairly plastered a few years back when I found a bottle at the back of the cupboard from the previous owners of the house.

Don't remember much else. Frankly, as it was green it could just as easily been Windowlene and had the same effect.

Yet another vote for Southern Comfort. Way too much of it on my 18th (20 years ago now) and never touched it since.

Creme de menthe. Used it in place of bong water when we knocked the bong over in the woods & someone had an almost-empty bottle in his car (but no water). Eugh.

And tequilla. Because I vomited it through my nose.

Oh yeah blimey how could I forget???

Norwegian homebrewed spirit. ABV= please, don't. Off the scale. Totally illegal. Makes Pochin seem like a mild tipple. 😳

It's highly toxic. I was ill for three days. 😥

Never again...

Southern Comfort victim here too.

New years eve many years ago I drank a litre of it before we went out followed by nine pints with SC chasers. Next morning was the hangover from hell which lasted for three days. Can't even smell it now without wretching. 😕

SoCo

and by association Red Bull
but not so much because of myself but because I've cleaned it up too many times in my previous life and fought off a few too many drunken guys breathing them in my face...

Any white rum. The only time I've thrown up from alcohol was after a night only drinking that. The hangover was rough as well.

Sambuca - needs no explanation.

Peroni Nastro Azzurro

Don't know why but 3 or 4 pints of this stuff knocks me off my feet. Normal beers or lagers aren't a problem, have been known to put a gallon away on a big night out but Peroni is, for some reason, different. Never been ill off beer til I had this stuff. Just to be sure it wasn't a fluke I went to a function some months later and had another Peroni night and the same thing happened 🙁

Absinthe is a beautiful drink. Cheap stuff with wormwood in goes very well with redbull for evenings of total chaos. All of my singlespeed event riding including the competetive bits have been fueled by the green pixies

Pernod- around Christmas time many years ago. Big break up with my first serious girlfriend and I drank lots of Pernod and black, it come up the same colour too.
Reet petit was all over the radio and TV and I hated the song for a long time afterwards.

must have been a bad one

I tend to only drink wine (mostly red) or beer (beer, not lager).

Tried Tequila once, I think the bottle is 5 years old now & still only one shot gone. ditto Brandy. Whisky, Pernod, Southern Comfort, Vodka all palatable but I never buy any simply because of the up-front price. Never had owt else

Aged 17 rugby tour to Holland, got hold of a bottle of Malibu, ran down a corridor slightly off and bashed my head on a door frame. Woke up in bed the next day with a massive lump and covered in puke.

Now anything vaguely coconutty makes me feel ill.

As an ex motor mechanic i can categorically confirm that Tequilla tastes like Hypoid 90 gear oil. (don't ask how I know what gear oil tastes like except it involved a mk11 Escort gearbox)

Even nearly 20 years on, the smell of it still makes me feel sick!!

got quite a taste for this about 15years ago, over did it one night along with several beers while in prague, was a hell of a night though!
without doubt the worse hangover I've ever had, felt terrible for days.

The thought for it makes me shudder let alone the smell/taste.

Vintage jenever. We were given a bottle of it as a gift when we moved back to the UK from Holland. It smells like an old man's sick crossed with sump oil.

This is quite a topical thread for us as we've just been packing up the contents of our drinks cabinet, which mainly seems to consist of the horrible stuff that no one wants to drink on the basis that the good stuff doesn't hang around that long. Some of the bottles have been with us the last 3 moves
