Yard of absinthe

Up -4 Down

A few months ago it was my roommate's 21st birthday party. We had about 30 or so people in our tiny house for predrinks (when us Britts get absolutely rat-arsed before going to a club). Predrinks were going great, and I thought it would be a good idea to get out my yard glass (a glass that holds five pints that has a bulb at the bottom, making it very tricky to drink from). So I pour in five pints of ale and leave it in its stand to settle. I can't remember what I was doing in the meantime (probably answering the call of nature), but when I came back and put the glass to my lips I caught the distinct smell of aniseed. My mate had decided he'd pour "a tiny bit" of my 90% alcohol absinthe in to this yard glass to make it not just a dirty pint but a dirty yard! I don't remember much of that night, save the fact that I finished that yard of ale like a boss!
