Not the worst wine ever. Their seasonal stuff is usually better though. Mulled wine is awesome. Just dont get the hard Rootbeer tastes like ass water.

Yeah. I'm assuming Aldi produce is pretty similar quality around the world. In the UK it's my go to place for alcohol and I've had plenty of tasty wine from there.

LOL this is great because I know Aldi spans across continents. Hopefully the US version is better quality.

Do they make hard rootbeer under the same brand?

Or do you mean just generally?

Ah gotcha, I haven't had a problem with the hard sodas but I'm not picky either. Usually I post some drinks that people hold with disdain.

I've had not your fathers hard root beer, is it similar? Might check it out next time I'm there.

That said, I'm not a drinker so what do I know

You're not wrong. They're cheaper than some dated stores here, which is pretty impressive. We have stores that sell canned stuff that is maybe a tiny bit out of date or about to be out of date and Aldi almost always beats them on price.

I really like those chocolate coconut cashews but they almost never have em anymore. Would get presutto there but half the time its all dry like a cracker and gross.

xD

I have you as green butter, I think I remember that from Discord or maybe you were known as that?

I do vape on and off, I posted a pic in the active vape topic on here today and yesterday.

I unfortunately cant drink red wines anymore without getting, like, immediate heartburn. Just like as soon as the first sip hits my belly its game over for the rest of the night. Sucks.

Ah bummer, kinda reminds me of my reaction to mikes hard lemonade. The stuff eats a hole in my stomach and goes straight to the indigestion and heartburn stage. Same with hard ciders.

but for some reason stuff like Steel Reserve and 4LOKO doesn't bother me apart from maybe a runny/stuffed nose in the morning (mild allergen).

This is my experience with Yellow Tail anything. So far no headache but I did wake up early so the alcohol disrupted my sleep some.

I avoid wine/liquor due to black out issues, but if it's all I had, then sure.
