Building a Bar what should i get?
I was contemplating building a Bar in my basement.
I was further contemplatiing buying a bottle of Louie XIII (althought its real pricey)as my centerpiece. Has anyone had this? Is it worth the 1K plus? Also feel free to post what liquors are a 100% necessity to have. Thanks in advance

Amaretto. Very aromatic, almond-flavored liquer. Great straight up, and is sometimes mixed, too.
Midori Melon -- interesting flavor, goes great in lots of mixes. Definitely girls will like it even if you don't. Bailey's Irish Cream -- chicks dig it, so that's reason enough. Kalua -- for Black Russians and White Russians. Mixes well, even in cooking. Coffee flavor, which is always very popular no matter what it's in.

Re: Building a Bar what should i get?
Yeah, it's not a must, I shouldn't have put it in. It's just that I've never seen a girl who didn't like it a lot, and most guys stocking bars probably need a little more chick stuff in them. If you didn't include it, though, nobody would notice.

Re: Building a Bar what should i get?
From the usual OOT posting I see, I'm guessing half of OOT doesn't shave yet. Still, I refrained from mentioning rum and coke. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
But mostly, my list was based on stuff I've seen lots of women like. I figured he may not like any of it, but should get it anyway, just to be a good host to them. I've noticed several threads in the last week or so in which guys were saying, Which booze should I get? or, Is this enough booze? And they seemed to overwhelming have hardcore dude booze only, like beer and Jack Daniels, etc. But you gotta keep the women happy too; they're the best part of the party anyway. So, anyone stocking a bar well needs to account for the tastes of the women, too. It honestly strikes me as kind of strange when I see people not making getting the girly drinks a priority. A note about Bailey's -- it's amazing how much of this stuff I've seen women guzzle. I can take a glass or two at most -- too sweet and rich for me. But women love sweet, and most of the ones I've bumped into love coffee, so, you can never have too much Bailey's. Even though it does kind of suck. Well, at least a little.

Vodka- Grey Goose/Belvedere [/ QUOTE ] go for something like Van Gogh or Jazz vodka. Cooler looking vodkas and still good quality.

Re: Building a Bar what should i get?
Louie XIII is only worth it if a) you never plan to drink it
b) you wipe your ass with $100 bills
