Worst and best tasting booze?
« on: October 25, 2015, 01:51:00 am »

All the new fruit and food in Df has led to some very strange new booze types. What do you think would be the worst and best tasting booze in game?


for me


Best strawberry wine, orange wine. I love strawberry champagne irl so this is an easy choice. Banana beer sounds interesting too.


Worst: Onion wine or radish wine. Imagine a drink that tastes like onions. Ughhhh!

Gutter creor is a personal favourite.  Sounds like something that'll give you knurd in the morning.

Sewer brew.

It's literally toilet wine.

I don't think onions can be brewed, but radish "wine"... yeah.  Or turnip wine.  See, with those, I can guess exactly how gross they would be -- but drinks like swamp whiskey, gutter cruor, and sewer brew, at least, leave room for the imagination to get curious.

My top choice would be sunshine.  I imagine it as golden yellow with a pinkish-orange highlight, like a padparadscha sapphire; in strength and flavour, something like a Sauternes -- smooth, and not too sweet.

I also figure sunshine would be sublime. Whip wine, too. Gutter cruor pretty much has to be the absolute worst--if you doubt it, make sure you understand the meaning of the word "cruor" first, then think long and hard about drinking something of that texture.

I'm picturing nettle-flavoured, half-congealed Jello shots.

I have an idea:

Mix Campari and Jagermeister to get proper color and flavor, add in cornstarch to make it goopy and lumpy and gently stir in a little some blueberry or blackberry jam for additional dark streaks.
