Yes, it's called A Sin Against Nature. It's just wrong Brother Mahatma, and it is your duty to sort out those Canuckistanians so that they don't indulge in this nonsense any further.

The only thing they should be adding to their beer is more beer. Educate them on the finer arts of proper drinking etiquette and they should be all right.

Surely anything that reduces the woes of the day after are worth considering?

I have rehydration sachets before bed after a session, then honey and green tea with freshly-squeezed lemon juice the next morning. The hangover is deftly defused and I can continue to booze then once it gets to midday and it's "okay" to drink again.

my point exactly brother Iguana, I was sceptical about it at first but it tastes like Pizza in a glass and the lack of hangover meant it was worth a mention

rediguana

Those casting aspersions on this bold and innovative concoction need to take a long, hard look at themselves and ask are they drinking as much as they might be? And, if not, how can they increase their stamina and transform themselves into men the calibre of me + the OP?

You owe it yourselves, men - tomato juice in your Stella from now on.

I agree Brother rediguana, and such items are worth considering. Eliminating the worst effects of a hangover in order to be able to drink more is the Holy Grail of the Brotherhood.

However, this sounds decidedly metrosexual, and you know what we think of that sort of thing around here.

I'm willing to keep an open mind. I'll try one of these stellato's.

If you want to beef it up, you can always make it an "Irish" Green Tea.

(Internal voice: Don't tell them about the Innocent smoothies and smoked salmon and scrambled eggs you also utilise in your post-booze recovery drive)

I find the best cure for a hangover is a pair of testicles - ya bunch of old women

Since I started only drinking real beer and passing on the fairy liquid in a glass that is Budweiser/Henieken/Carlsberg I haven't had a hangover.

Exactly! Remember, brothers, whenever you are in doubt or are unsure about a drink that is being offered to you, a simple solution as to whether you should drink it or not is to recall Al Murray's mantra on the subject:

"It's a PINT for the fella, a glass of white wine or fruit-based drink for the lady!"

If you remember that, it should keep you out of trouble and on the straight and narrow, my brothers!

A hangover is gods way of letting you know you alive, its like pain but worse.

Like when you get sick into a pint glass after scoffing a pizza and sinking a shed load of pints?

i worked in a pub in england and that was the standard hangover cure, pint glass with a bottle of bud and a bottle of tomato juice - i feel sick even thinking about it, but they all swore by it

Zaph

Well in fairness it could only improve the Bud.
