What are your thoughts on Jagermeister?
>>22282157Drinking for beginners
>>22282159How is Jagermeister for beginners?It's 35% ABV
>>22282157The Nissan Sentra of alcoholism
It's fucking gross. I'd rather drink room temp vodka with no chaser than this shit.
>blend of 56 herbs and spices, including ginger, licorice root, cloves, and star anisecool>Sugar: ~19g per 1.5 oz shot, making it one of the most sugar-dense alcoholic drinks out therenot cool
>>22282157I like the herbal bouquet but 35% just doesn't do it for me. I'm more of an over-proof rum kinda fella... an adult.>>22282167I was going to comment this before I saw anyone mention ABV.
>>22282167It's sugary as absolute fuck. It tastes nothing like alcohol. Hope this helps your tiny mind
>>22282157Figure it out, person. Ayo. Litty again, litty again.
>>22282157Reserved for poor white trash. Thanks for posting.
>>22282167that's below the standard (40%) of hard liquor
>>22282157Had a lot of fun with jaeger bombs as a student. Funny cos both ingredients taste awful but together theyre not bad
>>22282213It's not a spirit it's a liqueur. It's grain alcohol diluted with sugar and flavourings to suite the palate of women and homosexuals.
>>22282227>to suite the palate of women and homosexualsright up your alley queer
Not enough licorice taste.
>>22282157It's pretty good shit, unless you're a college student trying to get a major buzz. Then just stick to vodka in a plastic jug and natty light.
>>22282231lol, trash
>>22282229Good one. Really worth completing the captcha for that piece comedy gold. Go show your funny comment to mummy so she can pat your hefty back.
>>22282239So glad I pissed on your safe space.
>>22282157jager is dope, I miss it and no longer drink
>>22282244lol pussy
>>22282244If you can call that drinking. What a nancy. I bet your liver's barely cirrhotic at all.
>>22282244Sorry bros, forgot to mention I fuck men in the ass. My bad
>>22282252based
>>22282252Straightest thing you've said all thread.
>>22282213Solved.
>>22282157It's great in an (Improved) Surfer on Acid.>Pinch of Salt>½oz. Lime Juice>1½oz. Pineapple Juice>½oz. Cream of Coconut>¾oz. Jagermeister1¾oz. Rum
>>22282334Why does shit have to have the dumbest fucking nicknames. This somehow renewed a significant percentage of hate in my blood
>>22282157I'm a young man with no taste, I see flavored alcohol, I like it. (Jagermeister being no exception)
>>22282335IIRC, the original was named in the 90's, so that's part of the reason.
>>22282157I like it. There used to be a version im still trying to find but vanished. It was a jägermeister with chili. It was amazing, no bitter aftertaste, and the chili made the spice even better
>>22282369fag
>>22282398Enough about your white trash mothers lovers anon...
>>22282414Bitchnigger
>>22282398We don't say that. We say person or neighbor.
>>22282419Enough about your dad anon what about the shit tier liquor for Christ sakes?
>>22282420fuck off pussy
>>22282369>>22282375So uhh... Room for two I take it?
>>22282157i dont drink it often anymore although it has sentimental value. better than 90% of herbal/flavored spirits around though.
>>22282157Goes great in root beer.
>>22282781good idea
>>22282157I preferred absinthe before I decided to test my tolerance with, several things, but mostly Absinthe. And found out that I don't black out, which meant I experienced every second of the hours I spent throwing it back up/ shitting it out and now I feel a flight or fight response if I so much as smell too strong of an Anise scent
>>22282157figure it out dood
>>22282173>I'm more of an over-proof rum kinda fella... an adultYou sound like a faggot
>>22282173You're just a drunk.
>>22282170>>22282176This. It's way too fucking sugary. There are other herbal liqueurs which actually taste like herbs macerated in moonshine, rather than Ricola cough drops dissolved in cheap vodka.
>>22282168So what, barely one step above Hennessy (Altima)?
it's alright, terrible to get drunk with though
>>22282157Never had it and I don't drink much but since I saw Greg's Risky Sour I want to try it, just don't want to spend a bunch on stuff I won't drink again likely.
>>22282157cough syrup
>>22282815This shit is dark. He's shuffling around on his freshly amputated foot stump to go outside to smoke. For those who don't know this is Onlyusemeblade, an OG COD youtuber who only used his knife hence the name. He's an untreated diabetic who has been streaming himself getting completely blacked out on Jager for a decade or so. He only drinks Jager and he drinks a lot when he drinks. He had a non-healing diabetic ulcer on his big toe for years and the community who watches him and other degen streamers joked that the toe was theirs and they would get the toe eventually. It happened a year or two ago when all the toes on one his feet were amputated. Then a few weeks ago his leg swelled up and his stump was oozing blood and pus so his streamer friends made him go to the hospital and they amputated the rest of the foot. Now he's staying with some degen streamers and smoking Newports and eating badly but not drinking.
>>22282157Proof that every idiot who ever decided "I'm going to invent a new alcohol!" just ended up choosing anise as the flavor because they're retarded.
>>22282157When I graduated from college an Indian guy in my program invited everyone to his party for a party. Having no other friends I went and ended up being the only non-Indian person there out of at least 50 people. The night I learned that Indians absolutely love Jager. None of them drank beer, vodka, or any other form of alcohol. It was just bottle after bottle of jager being drank straight or mixed into soda. The guy who had invited me looked at me funny when I told him I wanted a beer.
>>22283796
i didn't find it disgusting but i didn't find it that great either, like the bitter licorice of alcohol
>>22282157Absolutely Disgusting
>>22283809Imagine the smell
>>22283796he's on insulin now. about 10 years too late
>>22282157Bloodpuked on it onceits alright but im not touching that again
>>22282157I love it. Doesn't take terrible, goes down smooth, never gives me headaches, and it's strong enough to get a nice buzz without putting you on your ass too fast
>>22282157Friend who liked the stuffed died the other year so in mourning I went out and bought a bottle of it but for some reason I thought it was like 18% or something. Woke up the next morning with my face covered in blood. Followed the trail of blood from my bed to my basement where there was a big dried puddle of blood. Judging from the blood all over the basement bathroom and walls I think I must have fell when taking a piss, smacked my front two teeth on the sink hard enough to knock them loose, then stumbled around bleeding everywhere until I decided to lay down there the puddle was for a while and then got up and made it to my bed. 10/10 would drink again.
>>22282974Takes one to know one.
>>22282979Takes one to know one.
>>22282167it's a normie high school/college drink partly because of the funny name and partly the weird/sweet tastesimilar to fireball and sambuca
>>22282157I thought it was mid until I learned you had to chill it in the freezer, now I like it.
>>22282170>Sugar: ~19g per 1.5 oz shotthe fuck are you talking about?are you looking at the nutrition label for molasses?it's 5.7g per 1.5oz shot, which is still a fuckton, grant you.
>>22284344>WebMD doesn't cite a specific source for the 19g figure. Their article (webmd.com/diet/jagermeister-is-it-good-for-you) simply lists it as a nutrition fact with no reference. That's the origin of the number — it's an uncited claim that then got propagated:>Mashed cites WebMD for the 19g figure>CurlyTales, TexasRealFood, ThrivingTaste all say "according to WebMD">None of them go back to the actual product label>So the chain is: WebMD states 19g everyone else cites WebMD no one checks the label. The official e-label (13.2g/100ml) gives ~5.8g per 1.5 oz shot, and the 19g number appears to be either a calculation error or based on an older/different formulation that WebMD never sourced or updated.>Jägermeister is roughly half the sugar density of Kahlúa or Cointreau, and below even Malibu. It's in the lower-to-middle range of liqueurs — sweet enough to taste, but far from the "sugar bomb" reputation the 19g figure gave it. >The original "one of the most sugar-dense" claim only held up with the inflated 19g number. The real standout sugar-dense drinks are crème de cassis (~35–45g/100ml), Kahlúa, and the triple sec / orange liqueur family.>AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.
>>22284349>half the sugar density of Kahlúa or CointreauI swear I am constantly being gaslit regarding orange liqueur. I bought Cointreau once and swear to god it was bone dry with little orange flavor almost like an orange scented gin. But everywhere online I see people say that Cointreau is sweet, and even according to their website it contains 250 g/L of sugar, while Dry Curacao and Grand Marnier, which taste much sweeter to me, only contain 180 g/L and 235 g/L respectively? Did I hallucinate or get a bad bottle of Cointreau or something? I'm pretty sure I even ran side by side tests with Cointreau and Grand Marnier in a margarita at the time and found the Cointreau to be disgustingly unsweet
>>22284349ah, you're indian and stupid. carry on
>>22284363Maybe the bitter orange makes you not taste sweetness, not only is Cointreau crazy sweet to me (with a side of bitterness) but it also forms huge sugary crust on the bottle whenever I have it.>>22282157It's ok but I like unicum more.
I'm a victim of the branding so I fool myself to enjoy it because of the cool logo and all. If it was in a clear bottle named "Herby Herb Liquor" no-one would drink it.
>>22283796Just losing the foot is not too late to live a decent life but people who start getting things amputated usually continue. Smoking is not going to help that blood flow. Hilarious that he's in this state despite his means, I hated commando knife fags in original MW2 so this is an answer to a hateful prayer of mine.
>>22282157Even as a German i don't like it as it's too sugary. If you want to get shitfaced on herbal spirits go for boonekamp. Tastes just as bad but is dry af. >>22284363Every orange liqueur is extremely sweet. You can't drink them neat without catching diabetes. I have a bottle of Cointreau where the sugar sticked to the cap so much you couldn't even get it off anymore. The type of alcohol also matters a lot. Cheap ass neutral alcohol isn't as smooth as cognac obviously so it needs more sugar to balance it.
>>22282169That used to be my poison. With a twist of lime.
>>22282157Last time I had it was almost 20 years ago. I can't remember if I hated it or just was indifferent
>>22282815This is art.
Jagermeister is a shitty drink that was marketed towards frat bros in the US and they fell for the marketing so hard it's a household name.
>>22282815Wow that is really sad. He's declining fast.
>>22282157The Jäegerbomb and its consequences have been a disaster for the drinker race
I'm a professional drinker. But Jager fucks me up bad. End up crying and puking through my nose. I don't know what's up with it, but I can't handle that shit at all and I can drink a 750 of 151 fum znd still go to work. So yeas I don't mess with that devil brew at all anymore
>>22284604> If you want to get shitfaced on herbal spirits go for boonekamp. Boonekamp and Underberg are not for fucking yourself up, they're for drinking after a big meal, hence the tiny bottle. If you want to get fucked up on dodgy tasting shit, mix Fernet with Cola, like the Argentinians do.
>>22282157Remedy for upset stomach, but otherwise completely undrinkable as alcohol of choice.
>>22282157The most disgusting thing I can recall drinking
>>22282157i like it mixed with cola.
>>22284869>Boonekamp and Underberg are not for fucking yourself upOf course they are. Alcoholics love boonekamp.

>>22284986As a recovering alcoholic I can confirm that Boonekamp is what I got when Lidl were out of bottom shelf vodka. It goes down very easily even when you're sick as fuck from withdrawals.
>>22282157as much as i hate black licorice i dont mind Jager. I would only buy a bottle on special occasions...mostly when me and my buddy would get fucked up and go to concerts. Although.....I think it was the jager that would always turn the night into chaos. Twice this happened....pre game, go to store get jager, drink it, go to concert, somehow get lost and lose my friend, somehow get home. Next day realize I lost my keys and vape mod which cost me over 150.
>>22284411>>22284604Wow, I thought that I had just fucked something up with my bottle. I didn't know that the sugar ring on the cap was normal.
jagerbombs were fun to drink. that's the full extent of my thought process.
A drink for grandmothers at christmas
>>22282167Drink it chilled ideally, keep the bottle like I did cus its kinda cool
>>22285719I once had like 20 bottles, was going to make something but somebody tossed them into the returns.
>>22285019Based ex-Zündkerzen enyoyer.
>>22282157It's horrid. When I was like 23 a roommates friend left a whole bottle at our house and his friend nor my roommate wanted it so my alcoholic ass tried it with some Pepsi to help me wash it down (it's all I had at the time). The taste is way too sweet for my liking. It made me feel shitty but I tanked through the bottle. It gave me the worst hangover I've ever had, thought I was going to die.
I'm a former professional Jäger drinker (have the metal shotglass and dogtag-shaped bottle opener on bead chains), and I can confirm that it kinda sucks. I'll take diluted absinth with a splash of simple syrup any day over it. That way you can tweak the herbal-to-sugar ratio to your taste.
>>22282157It's okay, not great. There are lots of better herbal liqueurs out there. Italian amari is incredible.
>>22282157Tastes like liquid gingerbread and licorice. And I like gingerbread and licorice. Not a regular drinker though.How they managed to market a drink of german lower middle class boomers to american frat boys does remain a mystery.
>>22282335It's a humiliation ritual targeted specifically at autistic retards that take everything too seriously as some sort of attempt at larping as a functional adult
>>22282157For me its Hochsitzcola.
What are some alternative options for Kräuterlikör in the US?
