Thanks Guys! :D I was right to think I'll get more alcohol in the SYM than sitting in the pub to make the list by ourselves. :D

I'm going to suggest my friend we should research if our local pubs carry those alcohol mentioned here, before the big day... I don't drink much myself (particularly just after having gasritis. I'm very careful :) ). But my friend is from the north, did undergraduate in Scotland and have some Irish friend, and they are coming. She's up for it... :D

Please keep posting. ;)

Long Island Icetea (v. good)
Alabama Slammer
Lynchburg Lemonade (made with Tennessee whiskey, Jack Daniels)
Interesting suggestion... I've actually read Alabama Spammer and thought, " Sounds rather familiar..." :D

@Minerva - you should know that tea is our national drink! :D though that is boring. A good pint of bitter, personally I like the fruity ones - not the creamy pints ;) Also - do not overlook our revered Newcastle Brown ale - and what a generous size bottle too...if you try this, remember there is the street cred way of drinking it ;) Oh!! and if you want Cobra - just hit the curry house at the end of the night....most curry houses sell eastern beers...our local sells Cobra! :)
Of course, we'll have Newcastle Brown Ale! ;) There are also some nice local cider in this area. It would be nice if we can reach Indian take away for Cobra, or Chinese for Lao-chu (sp?). :D

@der Moench: I love German beer. They are great! Also, I actually love good quality Riesling. :)

@Bloodstalker: Wild Turkey! How could we forget... :o
