The Energon Pub

This one's mostly for our yanky friends across the pond, as I don't think this was available anywhere outside of the US.

But for all you guys and gals that were once wreckless teenagers partying the night away on the cheap, or all you homeless folk that have somehow acquired laptops and wireless networking access (:P), ever tried or even heard of Night Train Express?

It's a terrible, terrible fortified wine weighing in at around $4 and holding 18% alcoholic content to the unit.

The reason I ask is, that as I delve further into the rock n roll world I've wanted to be a part of (aka, drinking, smoking, being poor and playing guitar a lot

), I find that it's time I payed my due to my number 1 band, but of course this is a Californian beverage not sold in the UK.

I'm also interested in hearing your crazy tales while holding down this stuff, or any of it's bretheren- such as Cisco, 20/20 MD, Thunderbird, etc.

Cos when you hit the nightrain, you're gonna crash and burn baby

Heard of it.... I have seen this offender...

My parents were given a bottle from someone. I just remember seeing it sit in their kitchen for quite a long time. Sadly I have no idea what actually happened to the bottle in the end. But I don't think they actually drank it.

I just remember that a few friends who would see it there, would notice the content and be shocked. I know I was too scared to ever want to try it. I'll stick to the drinks I know and trust.

:lol: Probably a smart move there bud.
It's got a reputation of being hobo's delight- real cheap alcohol that gets you drink real quick. And not half way drunk either, the full whack that ends in you passing out.

But as that's my aim when I drink, it's my kinda drink. It interests me to see if it can get me drunk quicker than my usual drinks, which are all 40% spirits.

Wow... I just checked Wiki to see if there was anything. Sure enough.

I should have guessed that the GNR song was based on the stuff. Just goes to show that without trying the stuff I was right about it all along. That stuff will F$%k you up.

I heard of it. But actually the hardest hitting thing that got me passed out, was a 180 % proff Homemade Moonshine. Woke up next Morning, no Headache, no Hang Over.

Ah, college and only a few dollars in my pocket and a Friday night to waste.

Orange flavored wine? No way! MD 20/20. Kool Aide meets grain alcohol. This beverage was rotten. I swore to myself that it was better save the money for a week to afford something better than go down that path again.

I know I've seen bottles of Thunderbird and Night Train, but I can't recall drinking them...
