Would you watch someone drunk playing a game?
Getting drunk by itself doesn't sound that fun to me.

As I stated below, yeah, the less your brain is able to work, the happier you are in general. But now, being sober, I just can't imagine that. I don't drink alcohol often and if I do it usually is in low quantities.

I would watch a friend make a fool out of him/herself by playing drunk, but I don't think I would be interested in watching anyone else play drunk.

Well that's not hard. If you get drunk you simply are stupid and act foolish. Hehe.
What do you await when your brain works less? :-)
But: The less the brain works, the happier the human being is. That has been scientifically proven and is the reason why people in general are usually happier while having a buzz.

I never heard about cider in cans but what do you have against cider per se? Apple wine can be something beautiful.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have everything against cider - mainly because of how it's marketed. If people would refer to it as wine ( which it is, it is not a beer ) it would bug me a lot less.
However, at least here in the states, the last few years there has been a big push towards Gluten Free and with that comes people looking for "Gluten Free Beers" who then turn to Cider as a beer. As someone with a cicerone certification I always find myself explaining the difference between Cider and Beer to people - who then in turn think that just because it's on tap or in a can it's beer.
Also, they generally all taste the same and are overall sweet. Crispin before they moved was a pretty solid cider, now about the only ones I can tolerate are some of the specialty ones put out by Woodchuck like their Chocolate Cider, or Wyder's Reposado which is aged in tequila barrels ( although that is a Perry and a whole different fight between CAMRA and NACM ).
The guys who wrote the Reinheitsgebot would be so pissed if they were still alive :(

US Beer
There's your problem. Here in Europe it's a much more manly version than what you get in states.
Comment has been collapsed.
5 years ago that was true, however the Craft Beer explosion in the US over the last 15 years has been building and we now make the strongest beers out there. Unless you count Brew Dogs and their ridiculous Sink The Bismark, Tactical Nuclear Penguin and their stupid high End of History.
If the laws weren't so stupid I'd send you some of The Bruery's stuff as well as Dogfish Head's 120 minute IPA.
Comment has been collapsed.
My beer cellar/fridge in the garage has bottles ranging from 3.1% (Berliner weisse) to 16.9% ( Sucre from The Breury ) and 18% ( Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA ).
Average ABV I would say in my fridge is somewhere around 8-9.5%. Especially now that we are getting into the Winter season. Imperial Stouts, Russian Imperial Stouts, Porters, Quads, and the Bourbon aged stuff is starting to release now.

A I said, I never heard/saw/whatever cider being in cans. I heard about wine in plastic bags, but that's another story. I know cider (cidre) as apple wine, nothing else. I never knew there were people considering cider as beer, that really sounds crazy and weird to me.
Chocolate cider? Sounds exotic, I would try it but I don't think I could get accustomed to it.
The German Reinheitsgebot that they, especially Bavarians, are praying is a big bluff. Considering with all those additions that are allowed to mix in the beer to allow a later expiration date, it has nothing to do anymore with the original Gebot. In that case you would need to drink it in several weeks.
Comment has been collapsed.
The original Gebot wasn't even making beer/bier if you want to be technical about it. The lack of yeast being used pretty much meant they were drinking Non Alcoholic beer similar to O'Doul's if you are familar with that. The modern changes for it have been used by Germany as a taxation cause it seems like, most notably with the labels of Abt vs Bier. Even then though, they're allowing gluten free beer to be labeled Beer which is funny since it contains no malted barley at all. There are still a few breweries in the US though that follow the Reinheitsgebot to the letter of the law. Although those are shrinking it seems as the BJCP guidelines change and breweries adapt to them.
Then, you've got the guys like Dogfish Head and Almanac brewing who just want to make something nobody has made before, sometimes using fresh ingredients straight from the farm to the kettle.
Chocolate Cider is tasty but only one glass is all I need, after that the gut rot starts to hit.
If wine in plastic bags freaks you out, you should look into The Black Box
EDIT - In the US each state has control over what Cider is classified as. Where I live, South Dakota, it is classified as a wine and you must have a license to sell wine if you want cider on tap. In North Dakota however it is classified as beer and a standard beer license will allow you to sell it. It's been a few years but I believe there are 8 different alcohol sales license available here, all depending on if you want to sell Beer, wine, liqour or all of the above. Plus, you can add an off-sale to that so you can allow people to purchase Growlers of beer ( 64 oz/ half gallon bottle ) to take home.

I really don't know about US beer and wine. I just know that US bought budweiser and they are quite big now.
I live in Europe and as a citizen of Luxembourg I know to appreciate good wines and beers and I know what Germany, France and Belgium is able to produce.
Belgium is really good at adding things to beer (like cherry) or at double and triple fermented beer. I guess I don't have to mention that France is good at wines and Germany good at beers. Luxembourg can do both and I am proud of it.
As you might know champagne is a geographical indication. There also is the designation "crémant" that is a bit wider than "champagne". Luxembourg having the right to name their sparkling wines "crémant". Some of them are even better than most champagnes.
US beer isn't really known here, so I can't talk much about it. Though Craft foods is a very big company and you occasionally can see their name on products here.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, Budweiser is a brand owned by Anheuser-Busch which is a part of Anheuser-Busch InBev. They just made a bid to purchase SABMiller, a company formed when South Africa Breweries merged with Miller Coors, all owned now by the parent company Altria, who also own Phillip Morris and were founded by Kraft Foods and Nabisco along with Phillip Morris.
Belgium imo still makes the best beers in the world, trappist and non-trappist alike, along with some of my favorite styles. Nostradamus, Delirium, Westy and St. Bernardus all make wonderful beers that can be found here, although the Westvleteren will cost you a lot if you want it from traders.
Yeah, Champagne is just like Tequila, Roquefort Cheese or Kobe Beef, the name comes from a specific region.

I like Westmalle Trappist Tripel.
I also like those cherry beers. The strong ones as well as the fruity ones.
Or La Chouffe is interesting too, it really has a taste on its own.
Standard Belgian beers like Hoegaarden or Leffe is nothing against those.
Yeah, Champagne is just like Tequila, Roquefort Cheese or Kobe Beef, the name comes from a specific region.
You could say that "Crémant" is a extended "Champagne" region.

I never knew Roquefort is considered as "special". To me it is a normal cheese amongst many others. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
I mean special as in only cheese made in Roquefort is called Roquefort. If you were to make that exact same cheese elsewhere, it would be marketed under a different name. European laws mandate that they have to be aged in the Combalou caves in Roquefort-sur-Soulzon to be called Roquefort Cheese.
If you've not tried Saison Dupont yet I highly recommend it. Great warm weather beer as most saisons are. I'm a big fan of Flanders Reds, Oud Bruins and Krieks ( Cantillons is perhaps the perfect Kriek and I wish I could get it here ).
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah I know what you mean.
Just like Grana Padano, Mascarpone, Parmigiano, Camembert, Brie de Meaux, Emmentaler, Münsterkäse, etc.
It is a shame that French cheese is forbidden in the US. I feel sorry for them.
Well except those that contain maggots maybe.
Now I'm reminded to coffee where the beans have been digested by cats, Kopi Luwak.
Kriek is Flemish for sour cherry. That is what I was talking about in my previous post too. (Cherry beer)
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh you can get anything into the US food wise, if you are willing to pay for it. There are lots of places that use "forbidden" ingredients but get them in a legal loophole.
Not all of those cheeses you named are the same as Roquefort, for instance I can make Mascarpone in my home and it's still Mascarpone. If I made the exact recipe of Roquefort though, sheep's milk sent overseas and all, it would have to be called something else because of the laws regarding aging. Like with Kobe Beef, it's a specific variety of Wagyu cow that is raised in Japan, but if I were to get the same cattle and raise them here I would have to market it as Waygu.
EDIT - I thought that coffee was digested by monkeys, is it cats?
Yeah Kriek means Cherry, Framboise means Raspberry. O'Dell Brewing makes a beer called Friek that is one of my all time favorite beers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well in Europe you aren't allowed to do Mascarpone outside Italia, if I remember correctly. For instance in Austria they call the "copies" Mascarino.
Talking about Austria: Viennese Schnitzel is supposed to be veal. They don't care, most are porc or chicken and they still call it a normal Schnitzel. x-D
Comment has been collapsed.
Really? I've never heard that before, which is interesting because most producers use stuff like that to mark up for a premium here - Thus why we have overpriced cheese and cured meats like Prosciutto, Salami ( the real stuff ), Capicola et al.
Nice to know that though, they never mentioned that during my school days in my Truth in Menu classes.

Here is one of Austrian's most known producer of milk products.

Try drinking Blackthorn Cider. It has oak trees inside it. plus it's much higher proof than the piss than the US gets
Comment has been collapsed.
The last cider in the US I liked was this one, they're just all too sweet for me and the lack of hops malt and yeast profile just ruin it for me.
I'd rather drink Tuaca if I'm going to drink something sweet. At least that will get you drunk a lot faster.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah Blackthorn isn't sweet. Far from it. Designed to wreck your insides. We got a lot of very bitter cider here that you should use honestly to polish things like engines.

Drinking and Video games is fun but usually only when you are drinking and playing together.
Back in my WoW days we used to do Saturday night runs, everyone had to drink to be in the group - if we wiped we all did a shot, boss died did a shot, you died did a shot, plus just drinking a beer or mixed drink while running the entire time.
Man, I miss drunk Naxx and Kara runs :(

Can be very harmful if someone decided to get views for doing this as you will need to add volume to it and can be very unhealthy, as once off could be interesting.

Even though I broadcast on Steam almost always, no one is ever joining. I don't care about views, my expectation always is that there are 0 viewers, I don't even know why I keep my broadcast enabled. I also couldn't imagine to drink to get views, would be crazy to be wasted all the time just for views, that would be insane.

Hello dear Steamgifters!
Warning: This topic is likely to be random.
I am wondering if someone actually would be interested in watching a drunktard playing a game and what game would be funniest. I guess some online multiplayer game would be a bonus. I could imagine that it would be laughable. Is there someone you know who streams/broadcasts/records play sessions while drunk?
Edit: Even though the poll may implicate it, no I won't drink for you solely to play games while drunk, sorry. :-)
