Dear Internet, I am an alcohol n00b. What are some awesome drinks to get at the bar?

No chick drinks please. I don't want to lose man points.

Beer. In a glass, not a bottle. The larger the better.

Cider ("Soi-derr"). And I'm not talkin' about your crappy dry woodpecking bollocks. Get yourself a decent scrumpy.

7&7 is one of my favorite drinks. Tanqueray and tonic is pretty good too. Can never go wrong with Captain and Coke too. And if you really want to show how much of a man you are, get some Jager shots.

Manhattans are delicious, classy, and manly even if you order them straight-up. If you are worried about the cocktail glass, then order it on the rocks and you'll get it in an old fashioned glass.

Old fashioned.

If you don't want a chick drink than stick to a liquor and a mixer. Ex. Whiskey & Coke...Gin & Tonic...Tequila & Mt. Dew

Well depends what you're looking for. Is it some nice beers? Nice spirits? Also don't forget, you have some quite unique experiences to look forward to. First time drunk! and your first hangover, which is a bit of a hassle. So look out for that

Vodka, atleast 6 cl in one hit.

Ryskii Standard Platinum or Imperia.

Does not matter. What matters is to tell the waitress every time she comes by to bring you a drink. Many adventures started that way.

Sex on the beach.

Rusty Nail: Scotch & Drambuie

Manhattan: whiskey, vermouth and bitters

If your bartender is competent, order a Sazerac.

try a 7 and 7.. Seagram 7 and seven up

Horse feather. I've had it 2 different ways: One is just ginger beer and rye whiskey. The other ( and tastier ) is ginger ale, bourbon, and a splash of bitters.

• First, stop thinking that anything important in life depends on "man points." Learn what you like, drink what you like.
• Second, take the various suggestions here and approach drinking as an exploratory adventure. Decide if you like or don't like something when you're sober (i.e., within the first few drinks of an evening). It's never a test to consume more, or more varieties, than anyone else in the room. Those who think so and try to convince you are dicks.
• Third, learn when to stop drinking - drunk and stupid really is no way to go through life.
• Fourth, you'll usually find it best to stick to just one kind of alcohol. Mixing them can lead to bad decisions, like going well over your personal limit and whatever that leads to.
• Fifth, never, ever, drink and drive.

Try everything until you discover which type of beverage is your "poison". You may find that you like whiskey and vodka makes you sick - or vice versa. Beer might be your particular drink of choice, spend a little extra so your taste-buds don't have to suffer the indignity of cheap shit beer with a bad aftertaste.

Each choice can bring different results for different people. Whichever makes you feel great without embarrassing behavior problems, or hangovers, or legal troubles, is the one for you.
