Dunno what it is, but sake seems to give the best buzz for me.... nice sustained buzz that sneaks up on you and lingers but doesn't put you out. Must be the way it's metabolized. It's juuuuust right.

Beer is either too mild, or you have to drink a lot toget hit. Hard liquor is like a plunge but it fades quickly, unless you keep hitting it hard.

zooooooooing.....

Any other suggestions? Or other sake people?

 

i agree, buzz from sake is pretty good. i like buzz from beer the most though.

 

I haven't been a fan of sake even though I am japanese and have many kinds here and in japan...tastes weird, hasn't grown on me yet...def don't like warm sake

 

soju and sake isnt bad. Except when you play rock paper scissor lol

 

Agreed on both counts.

 

^ Warm sake isn't too bad.

 

Wine is the same for me.

 

I second this. My buddy always buys this big bottle of sake that we drink chilled. I've never been able to find it at regular stores.

Hot shots golf or Tekken for sake shots

 

Just not a fan.
Even in cold weather, I'd prefer nigori over warm sake.

 

Had a really great sake at Shabu House in SF the other today. Dewazakura "Oka"

 

nigori is good when you want sweet.

i like junmai for the purity... and it MUST be cold.

Warm is for that $1.99 for 10 gallon sake.

 

That's why I specified the cold weather part: nigorizake is a winter thing in Japan. Otherwise, I prefer this (preferably with lots of kushiyaki hehe):

Suki yaki sok soki suk, u soki to me, i soki to u! I eat rice, but i hate rice wine, it's gross warm or cold. I'll stick to stuff i normally enjoy drinking.

 

when you get untreated sake directly from ozeki like my fam does, someone like my mom has become a sake addict

 

I haven't had a lot of sake, but it just doesn't seem to fit the bill for me. It tastes too sweet (what I've had).
