  • Started yesterday and will stop sunday evening. 

    Guinness 
    Lager (Carlsberg and amstel)
    Adnams Broadside 
    Sherry (Bristol )
    Baileys 
    Rioja


    Giving it up new year so making hay now.

    Just started on Romate Old & Plus Pedro Ximinez Sherry - expensive but the best.

    Will decant a bottle of Poderi Oddero Barolo Rocche di Castiglione 2014 in about an hour for Lunch.

    Bottle of 2015 Brunester Porto Dop Late Bottle Vintage Port post lunch

    Appleton Estate Rare Blend 12 year old Rum for the evening until I pass out.

    Just hope the pacemaker holds out.

    Love my Christmas Day alcohol excess and start working on what I'm going to have in about October.

    Bucks fizz, missus bought a load of it ages ago so gotta get through it.
  • Just enjoying a bottle of Gadds No 5 beer. Will have a few of those today. Then onto the red wine for dinner/evening and either a couple of G&Ts or single malts to finish the day

    Just opened a Leffe Brun, got some Westmalle for later.
  • Cracked open first pilsner urquell just now and that will be my go to fuel for the day.
    Plan on having a glass or 2 of Malbec that my sister bought for me with dinner.
    Spiced rum for later and if I fancy something sweet, bought a bottle of Malibu strawberry spritz.

    You might want to slip a can of warm Fosters in there @addickted for the palate

    A man with fine taste.

    I am having a Rochefort 8 with my dinner, and possibly a Rochefort 10 later if I feel like the evening needs spicing up. 

    Leffe Noel in the perfectdraft for now. 
  • Bucks fizz ( verve cliquot and tropicana smooth) so far. A couple of Cobras before dinner then a Sancerre and a pinot noir with dins, see what happens after that

    What is it with the Bucks Fizz?

    Why ruin a decent Champagne? Surely only a philistine would add tropicana to a Veuve?

    these three bad boys will while away the evening. Had a Buck’s Fizz breakfast, a couple of scotches (the Balvennie and the Ledaig) to ease the cooking process and a nice bottle of Sauvignon blanc to wash down dinner.

    Been on prosecco and orange juice to start the day, had a few dockyard whiskys and that stuff is glorious. First batch get it while you can 

    Now on elvis juice whilst my wife is arguing with the oven and have got some very nice Lazio vino for dinner which I've been waiting for all day. Just been out for a walk and I dont recall a day so quiet

    I rarely drink Christmas day because of boxing day football, hangovers from Christmas eve and being the designated driver on Christmas day making up for all that today 

    Just need that bowel movement we were all talking about on the shitting thread to make some room for dinner 

  • A couple of bottles of black sheep early doors 
  • With the bird
