So this is a meme liquor, right? I just don't get it.
>>7792965
Some people presumably think it's nice. I don't.
>>7792965
>>7792965
it's just really easy to drink, so people that go to parties love it because they can get wasted
>>7792965
Jesus, what an atrocious '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''whiskey"""""""""""""
>>7792965
its amazing, I kill two 1.75 litre bottles per week
>>7792965
Its the perfect alcohol for doing shots with and isn't bad in a few mixed drinks.
lol here in Finland liquor stores needed to stop selling that and retract their supplies because it contains so much propylene glycol
>>7793141

its good with Dr Pepper but its not a whiskey technically because it has added flavoring in it.
>>7793141
its made by Canadians. just to say before anyone blames the US for it.
I'm glad it helped get a lot more cinnamon whisky on the shelves, but damn, it's so fucking syrupy.
I thought it was all right the first couple of times I shot it. But one night, I got too much of it and could barely bare the smell of cinnamon.
I avoid it now, and all sweet spirits. Actually all most pop and sweet juices. Not for me any more, now that I am an adult.
You know how women like to drink shit like whipped cream vodka? This is the same thing but for guys who want to say they're drinking whiskey but they're actually drinking a candy liqueur.
its a good shot drink
I went to a corporate party once, my coworkers and I decided to get a party but. The drive was only about 30 minutes but I got completely shitfaced on that stuff before we even got there. I think the party was good, honestly only remember bits and pieces of it.
there was an open bar so I was heavily drinking for about 12 hours straight
>>7792965
Pour a shot of it into a hard cider and it's not a bad drink when you want to change it up from beer and whiskey.
>>7793196
So adult that you have to tell us you're adult, right? Did Scott Tenorman sell you his pubes?
>>7793220
>Pour a shot of it into a hard cider
>sweet + sweet syrup
Disgusting.
If you want to change it up from beer and whiskey drink wine, or gin, or vodka, or rum, or brandy. Why would you drink an overly sweet artificially flavored liquor?
>>7793226
I wouldn't call ciders sweet a lot of the time
like oats, they have a sweetness but they aren't sweet on the palate
>>7793220
>>7792965
It has to be. I liked it the first few times I had it but desu it's way too fucking sweet and I love sweet things. JD Honey is slightly less sweet and I can stand it more but too be honest just give me a nice neat scotch any day.
It's for strippers
>>7793203
No guy I know except high-schoolers drinks Fireball.
It's for trashy white girls trying to get drunk, same as candy flavored vodka and other shot that just tastes like sugar syrup.
>>7793196
>could barely bare
good lord.
>>7792965
I don't understand how people like this, it's so gross desu
Its good for drinking games, or for people who don't drink hard liquor too often that want to "keep up".
I don't mind it but I only have it 2-3 times a years max
>>7792965
It's for girls that like spicy candy
My wife likes it
>>7792973
>it's just really easy to drink, so people that go to parties love it because they can get wasted
This, it's relatively cheap and goes down very easy with out needing a chaser......the taste isn't good at all, but the smoothness is why it's popular
>>7792965
So I am visiting the states this summer. I plan on bringing this back home, where they don't sell this. Is there any other popular liquor I should look out for and can't get in europe?
>>7793226
>wine, or gin, or vodka, or rum, or brandy
well i'm not a hipster faggot and i'm not about to buy a fedora so I don't need to worry about looking "classy" when I want to enjoy alcohol
>>7793677
>It's for girls
I very much agree anon. No respectful man would drink this sugary shit
>>7792973
>getting wasted
>off fireball
i drank a fifth to myself over the course of watching Tombstone and I remember everything that night.
fireball is shit
I can't stand the following artificial flavors:
-cinnamon
-apple
-watermelon
therefore fireball is an abomination.
>>7793785
As far as I know it's common and easily found in any liquor store, but the US is big and that could vary from region to region.
cheap as piss and gets the job done
>>7792965
>/ck/ acts all fancy and say they dislike it to seem sophisticated
>fine tasters actually love fireball
Oh /ck/, you so silly
>>7793964
This guy knows
>>7792973
>being this much of a lightweight
>>7793136
No, alcohol is the perfect alcohol for doing shots with. Not some cinnamon schnapps
>>7793149
That is why it is called cinnamon whisky, shitlord.
>>7792965
I can't stomach it, but I guess I get the appeal.
>>7792965
Decent in certain mixed drinks and works pretty damn well to warm you up. That's how I use it.
>>7792965
Fucking gross bitch drink.
>>7792965
You either like cinnamon hearts or you hate cinnamon hearts. I think it's a fun meme.
is this stuff any good?
I just got a bottle for my dad, but I know jack shit about rye and just went on the recommendation of the guy at the liquor store
>meme this
>meme that
just end your pathetic life already
>>7792965
the cinnamon flavor masks the alcohol better than basically any mixer without diluting the alcohol. so if you don't mind cinnamon, it is 100% the best way to get drunk. if you don't like cinnamon, then you're better off using mixers.
or, you know, just drinking it straight like a fucking man
>>7794217
my nigga. definitely my drink of choice, smoother than basically any other liquor i've ever had
>>7793905
Wtf are you talking about those are just basic spirits you twit
>>7795102
/fedora
Well I'm not sure I'd drink it (I get sleepy on mead. Mead), but I thought about cooking with it.
>>7795082
>just drinking it straight like a fucking man
you're so fucking corny
>>7795082
>33%
>not diluted
Mix it with apple juice and a dash of lemon.
>>7793134
>Beetus
>>7795042
It's general mid shelf rye, nothing special but not bad at all either, get him scotch or a small batch bourbon next time
>>7794311
>being proud of your problems with alcohol
Yeah dude wow you're really good at drinking! I wish I were as talented as you are!
I drank almost an entire handle of this stuff while playing a drinking game one night. I don't remember a ton of the night except for the part where I was puking my fucking soul out. I'm a relative heavyweight and have never thrown up before because of alcohol (though I have come close) but this shit opened me like a faucet. Even to this day, if I smell cinnamon, my stomach twists into a knot.
>>7795068
t. this year's homecoming queen
>>7792965
No. The "burn" is a meme. It's smooth and tastes better than most whiskeys so people who don't like can chug it and get hammered.
>>7794217
My nigga. I love 7 and 7's its my go to bottom shelf drink
>>7797150
I figure this explains at least 75% of its popularity
>at party
>drunk enough to decide fireball is a good idea
>two or three others open up a bottle
>we all do a shot
>they grimace, cough and wave their hands around
>don't feel a thing, just tastes sweet
>have another
>have another
>have another
>they've all calmed down and go "wheeuw, time for round two!"
>w/e, have another
>twenty minutes later go out and climb lampposts with strength and skill of chimpanzee
it's more palatable and easier to drink than jägermeister, which is largely what it supplanted. People drink it at parties but I don't think I've ever met anyone who drank it by themselves
>>7793220
>Pour a shot of it into a hard cider and it's not a bad drink when you want to change it up from beer and whiskey.
Angry Orchard hard cider + Fireball Whisky = Angry Balls. This is a real drink I saw in a restaurant once.
>>7797391
>mix sweet cider with sweet whiskey
disgusting, most cider is already sickeningly sweet
I drank it like water when I was younger. Now any cinnamon flavor makes me gag.
>>7797181
Jager is not palatable.
I was devastated the first time I tasted it.
>>7798033
it just tastes like licorice
Ex used to drink it.
Never understood the appeal myself.
>>7798037
So, non-palatable.
>>7798054
Precisely friend. Red licorice is just barely edible, black licorice tastes like ass.
>>7798033
I didn't like Jäger either but Sambuca was pretty good so I guess I don't hate all anise drinks.
It is. Try St.Elmos Fire if you want to feel like a man
>>7797413
I'm sorry you have diabetes Mr. American
It's shit liquor that college students buy to get drunk off regardless of how many times everyone in the room goes "wow i hate fireball."
>>7792965
Some people don't drink very often. And when they do, they aren't looking to appreciate the art behind the alcohol, all that good stuff - they want to enjoy themselves.
Fireball is a syrupy, watered - down... whiskey? Either way, it has it's place. Mixed drinks with the Bad Ball, if done right, are actually comfy as hell.
But it is a meme drink, doesn't mean it's absolute shit. You just have the "YAAAAAAS BIIITCH, FIREBALL SHOTS" crowd, or similar. Like Jager, Bacardi and the like, it has a magnetism to douche types.
tl;dr yes
Is this the al/ck/ thread?
4 months sober! Still haven't been eating better and am pretty lazy, but I'll get to that eventually.
>>7799058
Hah, it's been years since I've graduated college, but every time before I take a shot of tequila with friends, all of us in some way say, "God damn it, I hate tequila"
It was a gateway drink for me. I don't drink it anymore but it got me interested in spirits.
>>7792973
But it's not. It's like drinking cough syrup and fireball candy in one.
OP, no fucking idea why people like this shit, it's a meme whisky that is fuck disgusting, my only guess is that women like it cause it has a lot of sugar so no bitter afterbite.
yes. It dethroned Jaguermister as the go to candy alcohol for dudebros.
>>7792965
I drank a bottle of this shit at a party three years ago and crashed my car into a traffic light trying to get McDonalds.
I still went in the drive through with the front of my car all fucked up and got that double quarter pounder meal.
3/10 would not drink again.
>>7798033
Fuck off, jager tastes great. It's like spicy cola.
>>7792965
It's the epitome of "college fratboi hard liquor"
It's cheap garbage that gets skanks real zooted
>>7792973
I start feeling sick when I drink because of all the goddamn flavoring/sugar plus it tastes like shit
>>7799189
Kill yourself
Mix it with milk.
It's a happy drink.
>>7795068
nice meme post
>>7793141
the ones they sell in europe are a different recipe
>>7799184
Do they have a Fireball equivalent of a Jagerbomb? What are the kids calling it? I need to update my lingo so I won't look uncool when trying to pick up inexperienced teens.

So meme you didn't even know it was a meme.
>>7802982
That's a Christmas drink. It's more a seasonal thing than a meme.
