The Best Hangover Cure!

[timstalltaletav]

As a firm believer of the "hair of the dog..." method of curing a hangover, I think I found the best thing yet.

Weyerbacher Sunday Morning Stout

I'm not sure how I missed this stuff for 2+ years but it is awesome on a Sunday morning when you had a few too many on Saturday night.

It's very smooth and at 13% abv a bottle (or two) will set you straight.

Count me in. If it’s booze... I’ll drink it. B

Its amazing how your ideas and habits change by addind a few years, I used to be a party boy and when you hit 45yrs/ old amazing things start changing like drinking less,and by 65 drinking for enjoyment not the buzz,hangovers are a thing of the past, haven't had one in 15 yrs or more, I forgot what they feel like.amazingly I still make good beers and good wine but I am now into the quality aspect and not quantity.

I have 5 more years to hit 45. I'm trying to cram in as many hangovers as possible between now and then lol!

59 and I still appreciate a bit of a Sunday morning hangover. I look forward to it all week long. B

We had without a doubt the best Hospital Corpsman in the Navy on our boat when I was active duty. When in port which wasn't much, he would take those little folding paper cups they used to put on the old water coolers, fill 'em with pills and tape 'em to his office wall for when the drunks came in. Dob't know why because the next morning you could take 'em and within 30 mins. be happy, smiling, laughing and joking. Not just feeling better but it was a great great day to be alive. What was in them.......

2 asprins
1 antiacid
1 charcoal
1 vitamin B-1
1 vitamin B-12
1 multi-vitamin

The mess-cooks would give you a piece of burnt toast with honey on it that night when you came in if you could make it to the galley.

In the boats, in the old days the tradition when you got your Dolphins (takes about a year of intense training and discipline) Your first port of call you were required to drink them. Largest glass/bottle/jug/bucket full of whatever they could find behind the bar to put in it. They then dropped in your dolphins and you drank it, supposedly coming up with your dolphins in your teeth. Personally I woke up the next day, from passing out in a cactus patch of the ninth fairway on the base golf course. I was covered with quills embedded all over me! That pain was only slightly muted but the new dolphins on my chest.

And I ramble again....... Anyway, Doc's pills always cured any and all hang overs. You'll now need a prescription for the B-12 I believe. I used to buy it in a weaker form called "Enter-B", it was taken nasally.

I don't live like that anymore, I enjoy everything I eat and drink and try not to over enjoy myself.

PS It is not chiseled in stone a cut off date LOL.... some of take a lot longer than others. I always referred to us as professionals. I always said I just enjoyed live too much.

LMASO. It took me 66 years of drinking, partying, and fighting before I finally realised that alcohol was NOT my friend. I can't believe just how much I've enjoyed Therese last 3 years.

Haven't had any whiskey in a year, but I do like my beer, maybe someday I'll wean myself off that too, but I keep asking myself WHY?

LOL Exactly Al. Why? God gave us beer to enjoy life! If I gave it up I’d be thirsty all of the time and my Yeti would be lonely.

That's an awesome story! My nephew is a sub driver. He turned 21 under water. I only hear from him sporadically when they're in port. I can only imagine him drinking like that. I'm pretty sure he never drank a beer before he enlisted, he's the good kid of the family . Hahaha!!!

Ps. The B vitamins definitely work. Keep a bottle in my truck all the time. Only weird thing is they turn your pee neon yellow lol!

(Wide Eyed) Kev... you did duty on a boomer? Didn’t know that. B

"Ask him if he's dink this week?" He'll laugh and ask you where ya heard that.

Both, assigned to a Boomer and did some TAD with a fast attack. MG Vallejo, Bluefish

Its why I can sleep anytime, anywhere.

I was lucky I joined during the draft, wanted the brown water Navy. Had a guaranty in my enlistment that I'd not go to a sub. So of course God prevailed and I was schooled, schooled and schooled and sent to a sub vice running around in the Mekong. Those guys were the ones who deserved all the respect.

Never really ever got a hang-over.
Oh, I got falling down, puke a river, wiped out, passed out drunk.
But never the banging head hang-over.
Usually, a beer the next day, and I was on my way.
"Beer! It's not just for breakfast anymore!"

I don't drink as much beer, either. My usual drink is vodka with lemon-lime. Hide the citrus vodka from me. As for the other flavored vodkas, good grief it's a box of crayons.Who needs a sugar cookie-flavored vodka?

I enjoy sipping on rye or a Tennessee whiskey, maybe an Irish.

I find irish whiskey harsh and no comparison to a good Kentucky bourbon, I used to drink Makers Mark till I heard it was bought by the Japanese, no ill feelings toward the Japanese but I don't think our hard earned dollars should go there.I am now a big fan of Buffalo Trace bourbon, very good worth a try,

Oh now we're talkin. My all time favorite is Gentleman Jack for sippin.
Lately I've enjoyed many a jug of Fireball Whiskey though. It's pretty cheap by the big jug here.

But right now, enjoying a PBR every day. Sometimes 3... LOL! It has the taste I remember form when Dad would give me sips off his occasional beers. Yep, fell in love with beer in the single digit years.

Sonny,I used to drink Jack in my younger yrs. but I would get into fights, I quit drinking Jack and no more fights.I guess it was the Jack Daniels LOL My taste has changed to Kentucky bourbon on occasion and now I don't even fight with my wife. Life changer.I also quit drinking store bought beer as much as possible and am a beer brewer proud of my beers but will have a Spaten octoberfest or two in the fall.
