Brass Monkey

On Friday night, while on an alcohol run at Safeway, Kristy and I ran into City Council candidate Lamar Heystek, who happens to work there. He asked me if I'd distribute voter registration packets to the apartments of my complex and I of course agreed. Everyone get yourselves registered to vote here and vote for Lamar, we urgently need a student on the city council.
Also I introduced Kristy to the wonder that is a brass monkey (steel reserve and orange juice). She was highly skeptical about the combination until she tried it, and then declared it her new favorite drink. This is what she said about the experience:
This weekend I discovered the beautiful drink that is the Brass Monkey. Kris had been going on about how strongsauce it was fordays, however, I was quite skeptical. Beer and orange juice? Ewww. But not just any beer, Steel Reserve, you know, the high gravity lager, it tastes different than normal beer. So I finally tried a sip of Kris' last night and HOLYGOODNESS it tastes like carbonated orange juice punch, not the least hint of alcoholee taste. Plus, steel reserve is cheap like whoa and has more alcohol in it than normal beer. Next weekend, it is going to be me and a 40 of steel reserve with orange juice in it, you dig? Kris and I were even debating if one could add vodka TO the brass monkey because there is no alcohol taste. I think an experiment will have to be done.
Saturday our kitchen flooded. I think the filtered water exploded.

Brass Monkey...that Cisco Junky
Date: 2004-02-03 07:18 am (UTC)first off...
to like steel you must like cheap,but effective beer.
to drink steel,you must like getting fucking blitzed.
orange juice is almost perfect.
i personally evolved beyond steel,and i now drink cisco.Cisco is stronger,smaller,and way more easier to consume.I poor two bottles of Cisco into a 32 ounce cup,and may the spinning begin.
If you haven't already noticed...i have a fine taste in utterly cheap and horrible tasting liquor....
Re: Brass Monkey...that Cisco Junky
Somehow I can't read about it without thinking you're drinking crisco.
