Colt 45 and Castlevania

-



Two tall cans and a castle that belongs to Dracula himself. SoTN is a PS1 must own. 


 There are times when I want a classic. Colt 45 is a classic. National Brewing Company is the original brewing company for this beer. This amazing company was in business from 1872 to the late 1970s and eventually being bought out by the Pabst Brewing Company. Brewing for Colt 45 started in the spring of 1963 and was one of the few major malt liquors in store. According to Pabst, Colt 45 is based #45 Jerry Hill of the 1963 Colts and not of the .45 caliber handgun ammunition.

This classic drink pairs well with a classic system like the PS1. Castlevania Symphony of the Night is what I am playing while I enjoy forty ounces of kick.

Mouth Watering...
Konami hit the nail on the head when they designed SoTN. Gameplay, character design, game mechanics, and even the music is perfect. What appeals to me most is the main character Alucard. For those that do not know, spoiler alert for a twenty-year-old game, it is Dracula’s Son. Not sure how obvious Alucard is Dracula spelled backwards. Konami wanted to be on the nose with that name apparently.

Alucard comes back home to kill his father. Simple enough. Wide variety of enemies and the boss battles have just enough challenge not to be frustrating. Stiff controls but with the addition of magic there are other ways to attack. Customization is in the game as is expected with a RPG. Dracula’s castle is mysterious as he is with all the hidden secrets within. The level design feels like the castle goes on forever. The music is phenomenal. I still listen to the soundtrack by itself on Youtube. If you decide to do that as well, make sure you are listening to the extended versions.

                                                                

Normally a malt liquor is paired with a first-person shooter. Preferably a series like battlefield. If K/D ratio is not your goal and fun is instead than yes opt for the forty. The music of SoTN and Colt 45 mesh so well that leaves you in a calm relaxed state. The game has been around for so long that at this point it is not to be taken too serious. If you uncover everything you will not unlock an achievement or gain a reward.

Enjoy the game for the classic it is. Grab a forty and sit back. Play this game with headphones on if you can and get lost in this gothic paradise.
Enjoy your drinks and game on.

Three Solo RPG Resources

-

Playing an RPG solo can be difficult. It doesn't have to be with these suggested resources. I admit that I do not get out as much as I should. It can be difficult some days to leave the house. Especially now that the weather here in Texas has just gotten bad. Not that weather influences my decisions anyway. I do not mind being introverted. Some say I am missing out and I agree to a certain point. I have played DnD 5 th edition online using the site https://roll20.net/ . There is something missing when you do not have that human interaction. I played groups with people all over the world. The problem is you do not know these people and sometimes the group does not always get along. It is easier to leave an online chat versus in person. Instead of meeting faceless people, I would rather play alone. Looks daunting at first. The people I do want to play with have no interest in roleplaying. I understand. Not everyone wants to. I am not always up for going out to game

Mini Liquor Bottles: The Good And The Bad

-

This post is brought to you by four mini liquor bottles. Small doses but added all up together they give quite the punch. I'm going to name off the good and bad of these little devils. Let’s start positive with the good. 1. Price On average you will be spending anywhere from a dollar to two. Small investment for a quick taste. Beer may not be for everyone. A little bit of liquor makes for a good alternative. 2. Variety Inexpensive bottles are the best way to try out new drinks. A handful of bottles can give you the opportunity to try drinks you normally wouldn't. Not all tequila is good. I managed to find my new favorite today. Only a dollar was spent, and I can live with that. Imagine dropping forty-five dollars on a bottle you hate. I would still drink it. I can't speak for others. Now for the bad  1. Only one bottle Let's say you find a drink you like.  Great. The problem is you only bought one bottle and the li

How to make Brass Monkey (My Way for 2019)

I am going to tell you my 2019 recipe for making Brass Monkey. Super simple and you'll be asking why you never thought of it. Been a little while since I have posted. There's a good reason for my absence. It has something to do with this recipe. My new favorite drink. Cue the Beastie Boys. I'm talking Brass Monkey. How did I get to this point in life that the only way to numb the pain is with a 90s house party staple? Well, it all started with underage drinking. Statistically, if you were an underage drinker then you are more likely to become a heavy drinker as an adult. Or whatever. I swear I read that somewhere. I am going to tell you how I create this tangy, poor man's drink my way. First, let's get out the way on how to properly prepare Brass Monkey or specifically what it was and is now. Brass Monkey Original Recipe This may come as a shock, but the original recipe has nothing to do with a 40. In fact, the original Brass Monkey originates back to
