Jager bombs. Jager/schlager. Jager shots. 56 mystical herbs culminating in imported german schnapps. What's the deal? Fieroloki - Yes, 8 last night. Timeframe? 
|
There's some truth to that. The five years I lived in Germany I never saw a German drink Jager. The proper drink for an upset stomach is Kuemmerling. I have a small bottle in front of me right now.

A little familiar with Germany. Lived there 13 years, as civilian and military. Married a German too.  And you are correct about the Kuemmerling along with Sechsempter and Jager. All are kreuter liquers which are taken for upset stomach, indigestion, heart burn ect..ect... |
WOOT! Another mech-head! |
All I know is that "Uncle Ado" who ran the bratwurst stand in front of Pendleton Barracks,(Giessen FRG) Was fond of MPs.. He used to give us a "suprise" in our lunch orders to go..... A can of Pepsi and an airline size bottle of Jaegermiester. Even in the middle of summer he'd tell us "Ist cold ya? MP cola for you!" I know some folk don't like the taste, but I can't keep it in the house. If it is there I will drink it until it is gone.(Or I tip over). |
Haha that is funny. |
That's what I keep it on hand for. Cold in the back of the refrigerator. BTW, I love the stuff. Most people I know can't stand it. Including all the womenz. |
Were you in the 564th? I was there in 93 until we all went to the 284th in Frankfurt. My wife is from Giessen. Just think.....Woodland Club, Supermax, Licher Bier.
|
Holy shit! Yup... 2nd Plt 564th MP Co... we moved form Depot to Pendleton in '77 I personally liked Giessner Bier better. Licher was good... but Giessner was better cold. If your wife is from there... I probably tried to date her mother. We were "Cellar Saffron" in those days.... Butzbach was "Bagpipe Daybreak"... Frankfurt was "Discus Witness". Did you guys still pull the Dortmund run? |
Hey, tequila and cognac arent a walk in the park either, but if thats what it takes... Kharn |

Last time I drank a bottle, our whole party went to jail. Of course the charges were dropped. It was a pretty stupid situation involving a bar in the swamp, lots of red necks, a limo full of bouncers, waitresses and a stripper out for the evening ( ), several hand guns, a riot, a crying limo driver, a totaled limo, and ended with a very old deputy with a shakey revolver the size of a water melon.We made the New Orleans 10 o'clock news. Ahhh, jager and the good 'ol days.  BTW, try Honey Jager if you get the chance, all the post about medicinal properties made me think of it. |
Well done!! Jager shots really don't seem to be 'instant asshole juice' as was previously described. BMW's, on the other hand... |
