Loki Challenge Winners & Wrap Up!

[Valiss]

So you are the reigning Loki champ? Then please, impart some of your wisdom on me.  Since I am the sole representative of this sweet drink in the West, I have little to go on for inspiration.  So please tell me, what are the popular flavors of Loki at your fare?  Perhaps I will try to replicate a few and start the trend anew in the West!

[PurpleDragon]

Obviously Traditional.

But then there are the other flavors that people come up with..

Girl Scout Cookie (Tastes like thin mints)
White Chocolate Caramel (If you cannot find a tentmate with a bottle of this there's something wrong)
Peanut Butter Cup (Tastes Like a Reese's)
Ambrosia (Truly the nectar of The Gods)
Pink Stuff (More correctly called "Liquid Crack" as you just CANNOT get enough)


Just to name a few that I have had within the last few months... I'm sure there have been others, but hey I've sobered up since then.

And I will sweeten the pot and say that if somehow you manage to squeak by and beat me then I will be forced to enter unqueenly in revenge lol

Yeah, that's about the only way YOU'D enter the UnQueenly is if you lost a bet...


Though, still not sure if there will be one this year.. must remember to talk to the powers that be about that...

[*Teach*]

the flavors vary almost from camp to camp
Traditional almond is well known and asked for by many. The one (non-traditional) flavor that most request of me is butterrum (has a butterscotch/rum flavor) followed closely by lokiberry (rasberry) and cinnamon (taste like liquid redhots).
I have also had in the past... chocolate, lemonade, blueberry, root beer and many other flavors that tend to dissappear fairly quickly.

*almost as fast as rum at my house*

Let me know what you find out, I want to at least make it to watch one year
Now that I am an official "Chaosian" type I get to go to stuff like that lol

*without rum bribes that is...*

Thanks to all who posted some flavor ideas. I am very interested in the berry versions and I'll have to play with that a bit.

Hmmmm.... years ago there was a rather large fellow on the faire circut, dressed as a monk of course, who would give out sips of "Screaming Purple Jesus."  I wonder if this happens to be the same stuff....  either way, I liked the name and I remember it being sweet.

Thanks again for the tips!  Do you guys have Demon Rum out there?

Ummm.. since it was/is usually held in the campgrounds, there was no keeping any spectators that wanted to see it from doing so.  There was a time however when one had to be a member of CHAOS in order to compete, but that changed a few years ago. So the whole "Now that I am an official "Chaosian" type I get to go to stuff like that lol" Excuse doesn't fly on this one brother  

Jeez... you sound just like those whiners who CLAIM every UnQueenly they could do better and yet when the next time comes around those same people are nowhere to be found until AFTER it's already over and they are still saying the same bloody thing

[*Teach*]

I have no doubts who the king (or queen?) of unqueenly is brother...
I never went to it because I had understood it to be a Chaos event so I didn't even look to see where it would be held.
I never entered it because... well... last time I tried on a thong it took 3 weeks to find it again. Not shaving though... no... not happening
Perhaps... with enough liquid encouragement... who knows

*It would take a LOT of rum for that... a LOT of rum.. we're talking a lake or so*

Now, here's my question.  If you have to be drunk to do something, what's the point in doing it at all?  You won't remember it and in all honesty, it's no fun when your drunk, I've seen people who "Had to be drunk" to be in the UnQueenly, and I've seen people who were half-heartedly into it,  I've also seen those that signed up and pulled a no-show as well.  The thing is,  if you're gonna do it, then do it and have fun with it. Don't claim "I have to have a lot of Rum"... it takes all the fun out of it.

MY DUCKEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Now, if in the event that all parties are considered "losers", does that mean that we all get to keep what was brought??

If the person that your honor is being wagered against does not manage to pull out the impossible and beat your entry, of course I get to keep your Duckee.

[Zaubon]

...


besides.. I have a bottle of my own brew which is three and a half year old stuff that would knock your socks off which would mean the duckee and the lunchbox would be MINE mwuhahahahaha

Depends on what you want to put up against the duckee and the lunchbox, I am in need of a traditional dirk.

Und du bist sehr schlect.

What's the oldest bottle of Loki you've got?

I got a bottle a year old.  Think it's still ok to drink?

I don't really, if I should ever enter I don't need the liquid courage to do it, was just messing with ya
I have never understood people who needed liquid courage, but I never let a chance/excuse to drink rum go by

My method would be more on the getting my Lovely Lady Trinn involved to make certain I was at least in the running.

*the rum quotes can be misinterpreted on occasion, my bad*

My oldest that I made is 3 years. (That's when I started making the wonderful stuff)
The oldest in my house is 5 or 6 years (A gift from a friend at my wedding).
As long as the seal isn't broken Loki ages like any other alcohol as far as I know

*Rum ages for a while, but not for very long at my house*

Good to know, thank you.  Yeah I have some Demon Rum left from last year, but I am saving it for faire, otherwise I would have drank it by now. 

Do you guys have Demon Rum over there?  If you like rum, it's basically crack.
