About to try White Claw

Forums:

Got the variety pack. Thinking about taking an epsom salt bath and cracking open a cold one.

First up is raspberry. It's alright. I'll finish it.

As far as Girly drinks are concerned I recommend High Noon especially the Pineapple 

I think you have to grow a man-bun before your bath.

Put my hair up in a manly bun so it doesn't get wet. These go down fast.

They're good. We brought a couple of cases camping last year. They're great during the day when it's really hot. I got sick of them shortly into the second case.

Head rush getting out of the tub. Not sure if the Claw contributed. Blasting AC and drinking a Gatorade. Palate cleanser between flavors and replenishing electrolytes.

Did you make your man bun too tight?

It's fairly loose. But thanks for the reminder. I'll take it down.

Remember

No laws when you’re drinking claws!

bath salts and white claw?

Is that a thing now...

It just was a thing.

About to crack into Claw 2. Any recommendations?

Spoiler: it's black cherry. Tossed it in the freezer. I'll grab it in a few and keep y'all posted.

So what's going on around here? 

Ill bust out an old Zima from the cellar and join you!

One sip in and the black cherry flavor is decent to good but the overall taste not so much. Not looking forward to finishing it. Claws might not be for me. But I came out of my shell and tried em.

I definitely tried Zima. Maybe had a partial bottle or two? I was a kid. Everyone said they were good with Jolly Ranchers. Never tried that. Maybe Claw is best slammed. Not much of a sipping beverage.

I might have a slight buzz so that's decent.

Have you painted your toe-nails yet?

No nail polish.

Man, I really didn't like that second one. Drank the first in a glass with ice. Second one was straight to the dome.

But I do have 2 more flavors to try...

I've moved on from alcohol. It prevents me from existing in a higher plain than most of you. 

Trying grapefruit. Best so far. Is this how Claws work? Am I into Claws now?

I'll have to try them in reverse order next time and see what happens. The black cherry was all aftertasaft. Don't remember the raspberry. Grapefruit has grapefruit taste from the get go.

nice thread ben bear.

we had quite a lovely hard cider in hawaii, refreshing. i'll have to remember what it was..alias?

Nice mellow buzz over here. It's storming out and my neighbor's cat came in so we're hanging out.

i would say getting banged up on the 3.2 but it actually pulls in a big 5.0...

 

i just did a 9 day beer fast. that just ended, local crowler pulling a 6.7...

Number 4 not going down so smooth. Gonna call it after this one and spark a bowl.

Push through Zoner. You will lose your taste buds and finish the night like a champ!

I don't want to. It's kinda gross.

I'd rather have a wine cooler.

One more. I'll try grapefruit and see if it holds up. Lemme put it in the freezer first.

You should probably take it out of the freezer now. It might be frozen.

Only drank half of the second grapefruit. Whenever the next goofy alcohol craze hits I'll be an early adopter and get it out of the way. Should've just ordered one at the bar during some Sunday Funday instead of getting a 12 pack. Wonder if itsi too late to find hard root beer!?

If you are playing The Carpenters' songs, you rock.

This thread has Bears, Sea Monsters, Turtles, Mice, Claws, and a jazfish. 

Is this some kind of menagerie?

Guess I should have a Claw so they don't go to waste.

Drinking a black cherry. Much better than the last one. It's hot outside the Claw is cold. Slightly carbonated. I get the appeal. Maybe I didn't drink the others fast enough.

I'm not really a beer guy anymore. I'very been a whiskey guy the last number years. I'm feeling bloated and haven't finished this thing. 

Finished it. No major complaints. Makes me want a raddler.

Add a shot of vodka to each one and enjoy the ride.

Had a claw. Got fried chicken. Had another claw. I'm good. The thought of a 3rd one isn't good.

What kind of fried chicken?

"Ain't no law, when you got the Claw."

My 23-year-old son turned me onto those things over X-Mas.  By themselves, they aren't much more than water, but they make good mixers for gin and vodka.

what are your whiskey recs ben?

Turtle, Ben is not answering because by now, he's obviously under the care of the Poison Control medics.

Or, he's holed up with a case of those things. And things are getting weird. Give him some space. Let him breath.

The Zima thing is pretty funny.

Did Zima have different flavors?  I tasted one once.  Kinda like a flat G&T.

"Not Craw - Craw!"

 

("Get Smart" ref. from the 60s, for those who were still dead then)

I'm a simple man who likes a simple Jack and Coke.

Good ol' American fried chicken. 

I finally get the appeal. Consider this a cautionary tale of how to become a Claw guy. Maybe consider it a liberating tale. Put a few in the freezer and came down to the swimming hole. It's 95 degrees in Texas today. Brought Claws in a cooler. These went down quick on a hot day in the water.

Turts, I have been known recently to find a Makers mark and an ice cube comforting for my aching bones after working in the garden all day ( and aging)

cost effective when you buy the 1.75 liter bottle on sale, it  can last several weeks.   Lol?

And it came full circle and ended where it began. Had one left, a raspberry, just drank it in the bath.

i just did a costco bottle of woodford reserve lltd.

 

I just knocked back six bud lights doing yardwork.  I'm feeling better than if I drank water. Get groovy,  Turtle.
