Some drinking vocabulary

After some drinking nights, I learned some vocabulary about alcohol.

beer: well, beer is just beer.

vb, carlton draught, pure blonde, tooheys extra dry: beers.





pint: about 0.5 liters; in a bar you can say "a pint of carlton draught".


jug: it's your shout! buy a jug and pour in my cup.



booze: means any kind of alcohol


goon: an Australian slang term for box wine packaged as a "bag-in-a-box".


red wine: gaze at the color, smell the scent, then taste it.


sober: you can still play fireballs.


tipsy: a bit drunk so you can't walk straight by foot.


drunk: ya, drunk. a kind of state which is impossible to be explained because you will forget anything while you're drunk.


intoxicate: more than drunk, your view of world will change.


binge drinking: this is what all Australians do. You don't remember what all happened and don't know where you're sleeping on.


hangover: drinking too much makes you headache and uncomfortable in the next morning.


spew: an action which lets you empty the stomach.


Well, I'm new to the world of alcohol. Do you have other terms to tell me?
