here is how alco-ladder for an NRI looks like starting with the bottom most rung -

london pilsner in college (thanks to some unkil from goa)
kingfisher
smirnoff
bacardi white rum
old monk
more old monk
even more old monk
royal stag
royal challenge

Haha good one.

Small niggle - I would put Old Monk (campus staple) above Smirnoff or Bacardi which are priced 2X or even 3X Old Monk.

by Captain Bhankas Fri May 24, 2013 6:09 am

hmm. guess this list was influenced by my personal experience more than the norm. i went for less potent drinks (which gave no or minimal hangover) when i started drinking.

i haven't had old monk in years for fear that it will give me a terrible hangover. no more. i am going to try it again one of these saturdays. with thums up.

Do it Captain. Someone recently gifted me a very fancy, monk-shaped bottle of Old Monk. I've been really enjoying the occasional peg with Thums Up of course and lots of nostalgia.

Pity the makers are least interested in maintaining the brand despite the loyal fan base - it's losing market share at an alarming rate.

by Captain Bhankas Fri May 24, 2013 6:50 am

yes. maybe tomorrow night if i am not dining at an acquaintance's place.

i recall reading that article although i can't find it now. the one that talked about the lack of interest in brand-building and how it is losing market share to mcdowell's rum. why they would do that is beyond me.

by iTEDx Fri May 24, 2013 8:37 am

Blindfold an american and make him sip an old monk and a captain morgan :-) I wonder which one will he like. Where can you buy old monk in the US?

Thats a nice list you complied there bro.

Stop quibbling. At least I'm drinking a whisky, the only one in my bar - which I never do in the normal course.

Thank you, Oregon. So good, I ordered another 22 oz bottle:

very very good. the trick is to serve it just slightly below room temp. don't chill. i was supposed to kick back with some aussie red wine. changed my mind when i stepped into the liquor shop after some grocery shopping. this has been a favorite for a long time and i saw it on the shelves after a long time.

Ya Torpedo is extra hoppy, extra strong as compared to the regular pale ale. Had it before, it's good stuff.
