Somewhere out there a dudebro on a dirt bike is looking at this monstrosity and thinking it’s an awesome idea.

In this thread I was thinking more paint+milk

But you've gotta make sure you get the one with lead in it; the non-leaded stuff's just rubbish and really knocks down the quality.

I like rootbeer+milk, which basically tastes like melted rootbeer float. Pepsi+milk is probably similar.

I have heard that, too. Unfortunately, my taste buds are defective because I don't like rootbeer floats. 😮‍💨

Doesn't even make sense. I like ice cream. I like rootbeer. Why can't I enjoy ice cream in rootbeer?

I honestly don't even like ice cream much, but I love rootbeer floats. Something about how the ice cream disintegrates and turns to slush is awesome. Milk + rootbeer isn't quite the same, but it still gets the creamy flavor.

It's certainly not a universal thing, and I know plenty of people who will take them both separately instead of together.

Wait, this has a name!? It’s better with the coffee creamers that usually come next to the vending machine. Also better if you use Dr. Pepper. Tastes like an ice cream float.

it's that white stuff they sometimes leave on your windshield. they say it's healthy so you should always lick it off

You can be whatever you want if you set your mind to it

Where do I sign for my dirt bike?

(I actually like the taste of Monster/some other energy drinks, and while I'm pretty sure this tastes like shit I feel the idea is sound if you can find the right beer+energy drink combo. Good ol' rocket fuel radler - seems like a noble quest)

King Cobra + Four Loko is the one I know, it's called a Hyper Viper. I've tried other combinations and they all taste the same, so I'd just go for thematic or pun-based combos.

The passion of the criminals is poor justification to the victims of crime.

I know right? They completely fucked up the head on that. A badly poured Gonster is almost as bad as no Gonster at all. 4/10.

That's if you float the green part on top.

I choose to imagine this is Guinan's nickname around the ship when she's not giving Picard or another crew member advice.

If I did this I'd be worried every time I started my car

They’re making an Irish car bomb joke, which is a little weird as there is already a cocktail with that name made by mixing Irish cream, whisky, and Guinness.

When I drank Guinness from a can for the first time, I had no idea it contained a little plastic ball. So at first, I thought the can had been tainted. When I found out that it must have been added at the factory, I became really annoyed by that damn ball.
That night, I had a vivid dream of drinking Guinness from a glass and the plastic ball had turned into a fly that kept diving back into the beer as soon as I fished it out. The whole time, Grandfather Westinghouse played in the background.
Pointless story, I know...

Are our dreams AI now? (This sounds like something from a futurama episode.)

I don’t know if the was the actual product, it’s been a long time since I watched the episode. Thinking on it; I’m due for another rewatch.

I for one love random stories like this so thank you for sharing.

Even paint chips taste better than Guinness

They also taste better than your weak-ass sideways insult.

It's normally used in alcohol specifically to refer to liquid with low fermentable sugars remaining, typically meant that it's been fermented "fully". Beers like Japanese lagers have both low fermentable and (mostly) non fermentable sugars left (and are tasty)

They make an alcoholic Monster. Called Beast Unleashed.

The best part is that it just tastes like a normal Monster. But they removed the caffeine, unfortunately.

2

Its not about the suggar in this case. Its carbonated with Nitrogen (oxide?), like the Guiness. Gives a different mouth feel.

OMG... I didn't even drink that and I still want to puke.

I'll be trying it next Friday though, lol

This is one of those drinks that sounds awesome in college, interesting in your 20s, and disgusting once you hit 30.

Is monster actually that green colour? I've never tried it and assumed it was a normal colour and the green was just the can design

What's "normal" for energy drinks? It's all artificial colors anyway. Can be dyed anything

Edit: but, yes. It's that color

Golden piss is actually pretty normal:

You'd think Monsters would be green, but they're not actually. At least, not the main flavor.

ah, right, the classic one is more dehydrated piss color.

The nitro one is that atomic green, though

We tried this with a random soda, and not gonna lie, really liked it.

1/3 Moomin strawberry lemonade.

The reason the drinks aren't mixing is probably because of the density difference. Which fun fact actually why wrecks I the black sea preserve so well, the lower level fresh water never mixed with the high fresh water.

Sure I used to do that with Guinness Stout and Guinness Blonde. I liked how the flavors changed when you got to the bottom. Then they started making the blonde in the US and it turned in to a undrinkable IPA. I could no longer get the real thing. It went from a perfect complement to the stout to a bitter sir hops alot. It was nothing like the real thing(from Dublin) and I quit drinking them.
