Prohibition!

[winryweiss]

Today, alcohol prohibition was announced in my country!
I am not kidding.
There is a nasty case of methanol poisoning from adulterate alcohol all around my country (19 deads so far), so every alcoholic beverage above 20% volume is banned.
But still ...
Still ...
A Prohibition!
Even if it is not complete ban of everything alcoholic.
This is ... astonishing beyond believe.

Duh. Me neither.
When I drink something alcoholic, it had to be sweet.

Czech and German (and maybe Austria) are nations of beer-lovers. Yet this fact is somehow strangely omitted in world wide knowledge.

(Dang, the one time we talking legitimately about alcohol and I forget to break out my cocktail icon (I normally use it for very casual/what I think happy hour conversation is like or Haddock stuff).)

On my twenty-first birthday I ordered a cosmo because I heard they were supposed to be sweet. All I could taste was the vodka. Ugh.

I've definitely heard about Germany because of Oktoberfest.

Yay! Whatta likeable topic icon. ^^

Everyone heard about Oktoberfest. Biggest beer-event in Czech couldn't compare. Not that I ever was there, but my uncle returned from it drunken under picture. And robbed. And with cut hair. (He used to have the same lengt as I have now, below waitline.)

I kinda like fruit flavoured vodka, or tiny bit of vodka in juice. But I hardly drink, yet I couldn't avoid it on family celebrations.
