The Sword and Laser discussion

I don't normally choose alcohol based on the picture on the label, but I'd be very tempted to buy this one:

What do you guys think? Any other cool labels or similar that would tempt you?

I'm not a drinker, let alone whiskey, but I want that.

Not a huge whiskey fan. Do you have anything in a Brontosaurus Bourbon?

It's been a while, but I think Hobgoblin beer was decent: http://www.wychwood.co.uk/hobgoblin/b...

Crystal Head Vodka comes in an amazing bottle. It's worth buying at least once just for the keepsake. It's not particularly special vodka, though. It's not bad, but not much better than any of the common brands like Absolut or Smirnoff. http://crystalheadvodka.com/welcome

The Kraken Rum bottle has such evocative artwork, but unlike Crystal Head, it's also a tasty drink. Release the Kraken! http://www.krakenrum.com/

I'm not usually a fan of blended red wine, but The Magician is one of my favourites, and fortunately, made at a winery less than an hour from my home: http://www.reifwinery.com/wines/Magic...

Oooh, I do like a nice Hobgoblin. It's one of the ones I tend to buy, mostly because I find it everywhere and tastes good.

The Kraken Rum does sound nice too.

Mix Kraken Rum with ginger beer (not ginger ale), and you'll get a flavor party for your face!

This one isn't really "sword and laser" type, but we're all nerdy enough to want to drink it, I think. ;)

That sounds splendid! Have you tried a shot of Root with ginger beer?
