The_Amazing_Oblong Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 A couple of cans of Stella or Kronenberg for breakfast, Thatchers in the afternoon, red wine and red bull for the early evening and then shots (usually tequilla or Jaeger) through the night.

It's a similar story here. Stella for breakfast / to motivate myself to leave my tent, then on to the wine boxes, before cracking out the voddy in the evenings.

lukemack Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 This year just the one crate of Cider most likely Kopparberg, sick of the stickiness you get off drink excess amounts of cider over 5 days. Spirits wise, 2 Ciroc red Berry, bottle of JD and Captain Morgans Spiced rum. Just buy cold bottles from the ice creams vans/shops and cold pints of soft drinks at the bars to mix them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.pete Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Still ticketless (fingers crossed Sunday!) but for the sake of my liver I want to pick either grape or grain this year. I usually bring some vodka concoctions and then supplement that with a few beers or ciders (I'd happily drink a bit of everything). I'm thinking of maybe making some whiskey concoctions for a change and then sticking with beer, or else cider / vodka combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
**claire** Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Whisky, & spiced rum at night. Easy to transport in, out & around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dooke10 Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 A bit of everything lager, cider, mixed spirits, shots Although I'm swinging spirits above cans of lager this year as the most popular for ease of carrying purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slugworth Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Spiced rum and coke. Easily drinkable when warm. Hats off to those who can drink warm cider/beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. Now theres an idea. Youd need the milk very cold though. Or can you still get ice on site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actionstations Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 I swear by Westons Wyld Wood Cider, usually bring 4 3L boxes (only £7 each!), one usually lasts for a day of bimbleing. and then usually a crate of 20 or so thatchers or whatever's cheap and half-decent, for nighttime wanderings... plus a coupla spare cans for the queue in. On a caffeine note, I usually chuck in 20 or so of those starbucks double shot cans, they're tiny and usually a quid or so each, plus somehow they usually stay pretty cold... I used to bring a ton of energy drink (relentless) but I can't handle it too well anymore, mixed with booze it can be a bit too intense...

We do this most mornings. Only issue with that is your drinking vodka first thing in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verrymerry Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Rum or vodka, nice and simple. Vodka is probably better because you can mix it with more options than rum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubenz Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 A nice box of rose which is a good drink for the daytime and not too bad slightly warm. Then around 5pm get three pints of brothers (think it was three for 10 pound last year) this is a great pick me up and a nice lead in to some rum or gin in the evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally wouldn't be eating the pineapple, but I do give it a good squeeze to let all the gin and juices pile out of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoptildrop Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 on what to drink well it's either beer or cider for me during day, brought fursty ferret for the 1st time last year so will go with this again along with some cans of passion fruit cider (breakfast) and top up with the odd cold one from the bar Usually carry a water bottle of spirits for later - JD, Rum or even Jager but with jager have to carry mini cans of ginger ale as I swear its the best thing ever jager with ginger ale!! have tried vodka with the milkshakes on site and have to agree they are well nice as you can get a bit beered out sometimes rose wine stays in the tent as I would die if drank that all day, but a cheeky cup when back at the tent goes down a treat (goes back to beered out point lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue6field Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Usually have Guinness in the morning at the tent cold from the cool box, find it much easier to start the day than Lager, afternoon would be a few cans of lager Decent vodka in the evening mixed with Diet Coke bought from the stalls in the evening.
