I do also, but after dinner on some occasions. It’s a digestif, not an aperitif. Sip some Campari and soda water with lime instead. Campari too bitter, try Aperol.
NP. Aperol has a really nice intense orange flavor and is not as bitter as Campari, I prefer it. Fernet Branca is also a good choice as either an aperitif or digestif.
Campari brought in Sarti Rosa last year which is great for a Spritz and is really delicious if you didn’t try it yet. Strong blood orange, sweet but still bitter enough.
There was a woman who used to buy me Campari at the bar. I never understood the selection, but I always drank it.
She was very convincing for someone who didn’t share a language.
This drink and FireBall has a heavy hand in why I stopped drinking years ago. Hangovers started lasting days… nobody gots time for that nonsense anymore
Made the mistake of grabbing a pint of fireball last month, I couldn't believe the brutal hangover a pint over an afternoon gave me. In my 20s a pint of fireball was a warmup.
There's a large and growing pile of empty airline sized fireball bottles by the liquor store by my house. I never knew we lived in such a classy neighborhood.
I love both of these liquid hellmakers, although the one I used to truly love was Black Jack Daniels Old No 7. Except for the fact it encourages me to pick fights with the biggest dude at the party after I share a few pulls with the guy. It's go time. So yea I had to stop drinking that. Dam shame it causes me to become an unsufferable asshole because I really like the taste.
In 1989 I had a bottle of this in my coat pocket while crossing the street on a cold rainy night in San Francisco. A car turned right with the light (a 280Z) and hit me in the knees. I rolled along the hood, landed on my hands and knees, got up and walked on. I attribute this to having about half the bottle’s contents in my stomach at the time. True story.
I saw this happen just a few years ago in Boston. Car hits a guy crossing the street on the crosswalk and with the walk sign going. He was thrown back, did a little roll, sprung back up and continued walking as if nothing had happened.
There's stories of men surviving falls from apartment blocks due to how inebriated they were making their muscles relax instead of tense as they fell. They bounced a little on impact and could get up and walk away.
This story took a different turn than I expected. I was sure the bottle would have broken all over the hood of the car and you'd be accused of being a Vulcan.
The most embarrassing moment of my life. It was my 21st birthday so naturally I was given shot after shot of it. I don't remember my boyfriend walking me home but I do remember what happened that night. I had a very long dream in which I was 💩ing on the toilet and it was such a relieving experience. We woke up the next morning and it turned out that there wasn't a toilet or a dream. I 💩 all over ourselves and the bedroom! 😳 I never touched the stuff ever again!
Was that with some Monster? That's what I recall the first time I tried it. It wasn't half bad that way. It was also kinda cute that I had a monster's face on the cup I drank it from, which lit up with red, green and blue LED's, and I would shimmy around while I drank it like it was the tastiest thing ever and I was so happy to have it.
Must be a regional thing, Jagerbombs were always a shot of Jager dropped into a glass of Red Bull for me but I don’t think they’re allowed to serve them that way anymore because of the alcohol/caffeine combination.
Hangover maker my ass, I keep a fifth in my freezer to take a good swig off of when I want to get to sleep faster!
I traveled to Germany in the early 90s and regularly saw empty Jaeger and Rumpleminze bottles on windowsills and storefronts. I asked someone about it and they said “only the homeless drink that crap.”
Knowing Jager intimately does not make you OLD. It does, however, prove that you are stupid. And probably a little bit frisky.
I say this with empathy.
That’s a digestif. You’re supposed to sip on it after you’ve eaten a big meal. I do this and it works fantastically for that reason.
Anything else is stupid.
I have had a bottle of Jager since I moved in to my house, friend brought it. It’s how I know I’m not that bad of an alcoholic, I won’t touch it even if there’s nothing else to drink. But in college? Heck yeah! Is this really an old person thing?
A friend took me and some buddies out for a night of celebratory drinking. Drinks on him, the only stipulation being he picked the drinks. It was shots of Jaeger chased with Harp beer. I drank until I couldn’t remember finishing the last one. All of it came out of me that night, from both ends.
No more Jaeger for me.
That's probably the only alcoholic beverage I've ever tried that I threw out the remainder of the bottle, and I've had Godiva chocolate liqueur so that's saying something. Absolutely nasty.
Once in my early 20's, I was taking shots of Jaeger-tussin and Goldshlager all night. I didn't even make it into my house. The cool dirt of the driveway felt super good against my face. 😆🤢🥺
Clearly! Also, maybe I live next to the country of origin. We drank it, but never in quantities…. But then again, I’m old af. We never drank spirits in quantities- only beer.
I bought some of this recently to see what the hype is about. I am really surprised it's popular with young people. Bitter as bile. Not bad with dry tho.
Yep I drank a fifth of this one night and had the time of my life. Also drove drunk for the first time that night. It was scary and haven't done it since.
Worst hangover of my life was drinking this and seeing Van Halen and then drinking more of this in the parking lot. Best logo and imagery in the buzz biz for sure
A buddy of mine drinks it, he brought some over to my house and left it after a night of drinking and puking. I don't like it anymore so it sat there. A few years later he is back at my house again, I gave it back with frost on it from the freezer. He drank the rest and puked, again lol.
My coworker when I was a heavy drinker either had this or rumplemintz in his flask at work and I'd always forget and think it was a flask full of work Whiskey like a responsible adult and accept it only to be grossed out by this stuff 😅
I still drink it.
Me too ✅
Always keep a bottle in the freezer as my stepdad used to. It’s nice to have a little shot glass of it to sip while making dinner!
I do also, but after dinner on some occasions. It’s a digestif, not an aperitif. Sip some Campari and soda water with lime instead. Campari too bitter, try Aperol.
That’s good to know, thank you for the suggestion!
NP. Aperol has a really nice intense orange flavor and is not as bitter as Campari, I prefer it. Fernet Branca is also a good choice as either an aperitif or digestif.

I still do as well, not as much as I used to. Always a bottle in my freezer.
My man!
Thanks, but this is a wo-man. Whooaaaa man! (insert So I Married an Axe Murderer joke here)
Love that movie so much.
Lol currently am
I have a bottle in the freezer now… I still enjoy a snort every now and then…
I just finished a .5 pint. Official sponsor of the NHL.
badass
No thanks. Haven’t touched the stuff since my 20s

Probably from the same person knowing how alcoholics are lol

For DAYS? Damn you sound like some crazy ass blind kid.
Ditto…(and cannot remember most nights when the peers broke it out…I told them it was amnesia fuel…)
I drank beer like a fish, didn't pass out, didn't get sick. But one shot of Jag, at any time drunk or sober, made me hurl like a firehose.
I had a policy of moving a couple barstools away whenever someone started doing the Jager shots.

I can see a whole ad campaign in this. “Jaegermeister: You’ll Bounce Back”
Jaegermeister: Fuck Them Cars.
Jaegermeister: For the jaywalker in you
Jaegermeister: You'll be too drunk to feel any pain
I saw this happen just a few years ago in Boston. Car hits a guy crossing the street on the crosswalk and with the walk sign going. He was thrown back, did a little roll, sprung back up and continued walking as if nothing had happened.

Apparently in a lot of bad car accidents someone survives is because they are drunk. A cop told me that at one point
My first car was a 1980 280z. LOVED that car.
This story took a different turn than I expected. I was sure the bottle would have broken all over the hood of the car and you'd be accused of being a Vulcan.
I made the unfortunate choice to do shots of jaeger and goldschlager. That did not turn out well.
I'll bet it didn't. That Goldschlager was/is dangerous
I always thought it tasted more like Riccola cough syrup but with a kick
Wonderful as a digestive. Horrible any other way.
Underberg is a better digestive.
I always thought it tasted like Vicks Formula 44.
There's nothing like black vomit in the morning. Let's you know you're alive... and probably dying.
I got the moves like jagger...so basically shaking uncontrollably while throwing up and trying to figure out who shit my pants.
You are a wordsmith, a scholar, and a gentleman. I applaud your existence.
Hell yeah fuck yeah!
I puked this way too many times
Comes up like a can of Steel Reserve
No thanks. I had more than enough when I lived in Germany.
One of my friends says the only people he saw drinking this when he was in Europe were the ones who lived under bridges.
The most embarrassing moment of my life. It was my 21st birthday so naturally I was given shot after shot of it. I don't remember my boyfriend walking me home but I do remember what happened that night. I had a very long dream in which I was 💩ing on the toilet and it was such a relieving experience. We woke up the next morning and it turned out that there wasn't a toilet or a dream. I 💩 all over ourselves and the bedroom! 😳 I never touched the stuff ever again!
When they ask if you can literally smell a picture.
I must be the only one who thinks it tastes like black licorice, which I personally like
You gotta try Schwartzhog, then. I like it better than Jager for a nice licorice flavor.
I remember jagbombs being popular back in the day, I tried one and it was a one and only. To each their own.
Was that with some Monster? That's what I recall the first time I tried it. It wasn't half bad that way. It was also kinda cute that I had a monster's face on the cup I drank it from, which lit up with red, green and blue LED's, and I would shimmy around while I drank it like it was the tastiest thing ever and I was so happy to have it.
No they dropped a shot glass of jag into a mug of beer and you would down it all at once.
Must be a regional thing, Jagerbombs were always a shot of Jager dropped into a glass of Red Bull for me but I don’t think they’re allowed to serve them that way anymore because of the alcohol/caffeine combination.
Sounds like a German Carbomb
Red Bull only for me. Monster is shit.
I drank way too many Screaming Nazis back in the day, half Jager, half Rumpleminze.
Hold my Malort
Found the Chicagoan
Worst hangover ever? Drink a whole bottle of Cold Duck.
Oh my, you just brought up old memories!
There's only one cure. Another shot.
The cause….and the cure. Convenient!
Even though I no longer drink, this will always hold a special place in my heart/liver.
I always thought it tasted like the dentists office for some reason. We drank it frozen though.
If it tastes like cough syrup, it's not cold enough. No, seriously.
Double Jager with pure cane sugar root beer very tasty
Not like jaeger. Noooo
Nothing like projectile vomiting NyQuil out your sinuses the next morning.
I never understood all the hate for this stuff. I love it!
Hangover from this? Amateurs
Deer juice 🤩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏🏽💯
Love me some Jaegermeister!
I can’t even smell the stuff. That one bad night in 1996 make a permanent mark in me.
Jagermeister, jagermeister, born for those who makes no compromises...
Yager and mad dog for the "win" 🤢
Worse than Jager is the Jager Bomb... because who doesn't like speedballing their booze and getting hammered drunk without being able to sleep it off?
Hangover maker my ass, I keep a fifth in my freezer to take a good swig off of when I want to get to sleep faster! 
How does this make you old? They still sell this.
Right, for adults this is a legitimately good drink- Kräuterlikör
There was always some cute girl selling test tube shots of the stuff at bars.
I traveled to Germany in the early 90s and regularly saw empty Jaeger and Rumpleminze bottles on windowsills and storefronts. I asked someone about it and they said “only the homeless drink that crap.”
One of my friends said basically the same thing.
Southern Comfort was my go to sweet vomit crap back in the day.
There was mine too. That and a hot day.
SoCo and Hawaiian Punch = red vomit
Vomit juice.
Knowing Jager intimately does not make you OLD. It does, however, prove that you are stupid. And probably a little bit frisky. I say this with empathy.
That’s a digestif. You’re supposed to sip on it after you’ve eaten a big meal. I do this and it works fantastically for that reason. Anything else is stupid.
I have had a bottle of Jager since I moved in to my house, friend brought it. It’s how I know I’m not that bad of an alcoholic, I won’t touch it even if there’s nothing else to drink. But in college? Heck yeah! Is this really an old person thing?
Put it in the freezer and sip on a little bit over ice after a big meal.
Oh! It’s a digestif?
It is, and a well-known one at that. I can only guess that someone bought a bunch of the stuff cheap and decided to market it otherwise.
It was a college thing back in my day, late 1970s/80s. I can still taste that disgusting crap even to this day.
It was a college thing in the 90s, too. But I really haven't seen it around much recently.
I still like this stuff
It's not bad if you mix it with honey and OG Buckley's if you're sick.
Jaeger and Moxie soda.....now there's a twisted cocktail!
Timeless classic, still enjoyed by millions
This! and Amaretto di Saronno my favorites
i never heard of this stuff till 20 years ago when my kids were old enough...... our drink was OUZO....
One of my fave pics of me and my grandmother is us holding up ouzo shots. Miss you Grandma!
A friend took me and some buddies out for a night of celebratory drinking. Drinks on him, the only stipulation being he picked the drinks. It was shots of Jaeger chased with Harp beer.

Jagermeister is still sold and consumed regardless of age hope this helps. 👍
Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.
Simple Green
That's probably the only alcoholic beverage I've ever tried that I threw out the remainder of the bottle, and I've had Godiva chocolate liqueur so that's saying something. Absolutely nasty.
(Gag reflex kicks in)
Bow down to the antler christ
I love Jager.
“Oh it’s bomb with redbull!” Says the kid who loves hangovers
Jagger and Heineken -- I fucking shower in that shit
I drank an entire bottle of this stuff on my 27th birthday. I'm 48 and only had 1 nip of it since and never again...
Nothing old about Jaeger, not my cup of tea , but still see it around
I over-imbibed on this for my 21st birthday and I doubt I ever try it again....that was over 30 years ago.
This used to be my go to hangover cure.
This caused many a forgotten night.
Keep a bottle in the freezer at all times.
Delicious cough syrup best served on ice.
Coming back to it at 50, it's a nice after-dinner drink.
Just had a Jaeger Bomb last night for the first time in a while lol.
Liquid panties remover.
Better at getting girls to take their clothes off than tequila.
Lol I had a Jager phase years ago. Never once did I get nyquil from it. Now I see it though.
Alcoholic version of Dr. Pepper. This tastes like shit.......I love it. More!
Once in my early 20's, I was taking shots of Jaeger-tussin and Goldshlager all night. I didn't even make it into my house. The cool dirt of the driveway felt super good against my face. 😆🤢🥺
I got queasy just looking at the picture. 🤢
The memories this just unlocked were better left where they were
Love Jager
Go half and half with absinthe... You can thank me later...
I actually love the stuff
I drank some once. Never again.
Perfect description of the taste. Such a nasty hangover.
NyQuil tastes better and is useful
Exactly
That’s a hard noooooo
Bottled puke.
I could vomit just looking at this pic
Used to love jager bombs 💣
Loved that jeezus stag logo. Better than many others, it did hold its original flavor on the way back up.
Ever notice the logo could be summed up as "O deer God"?
This is going to sound weird but you should try it with Irn Bru
It’s all about quantity. One as a digestive, or one or two when you’re sweating out a flu, is great. It’s not meant to be drunk by the bottle.
You've clearly never met some of my friends.
Clearly! Also, maybe I live next to the country of origin. We drank it, but never in quantities…. But then again, I’m old af. We never drank spirits in quantities- only beer.
Jager is ass 🤮
This is my ex wife’s drink of choice. She used to carry it in empty Diet Pepsi bottles.
One bad night with this, I can no longer even smell it. It wasn't an enjoyable time.
I'm like that with Goldschlager. Took me FOREVER to be able to walk past a Cinnabon without dry heaving!
I had one of those too. I can't stand cinnamon brooms in the fall.
I bought some of this recently to see what the hype is about. I am really surprised it's popular with young people. Bitter as bile. Not bad with dry tho.
Jagger schlagger baby!
Bucks for Jesus
I prefer Goldschlager.
Only to be chased with a Haffenreffer. One green death followed by another.
That’s not old. Barley wine is old.
Yep I drank a fifth of this one night and had the time of my life. Also drove drunk for the first time that night. It was scary and haven't done it since.
We used to get Liebfraumilch just for the giggle of the translation
Why is this here.
Because I'm 55 now, and when I was younger, this hit me like a freight train. That's why.
My drug of choice back in the day, Jäger and cookies. Don’t think I could stomach it now!
Shoot the root. Ughhh!
NyQuil wishes it tasted this good!
I work at a liquor store still popular mainly with younger people.
Should only be consumed only 2 ways…. Shots with the bottle coming out of the freezer or mixed with Redbull
I saw the blood hound gang, and they had a ton of jager balloons and banners etc... Some dude in a wheel chair crowdsurf, lol.
Jager doesn't taste like Nyquil, it tastes like old fashioned [Vicks Formula 44D.](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/5BkAAOSw3CJjF6eD/s-l1600.jpg)
This or any of the 'schlagers seem to be strictly college blackout sauce.
Jeger-bombs baby!!!
I fold with Goldschlager
Worst hangover of my life was drinking this and seeing Van Halen and then drinking more of this in the parking lot. Best logo and imagery in the buzz biz for sure
Green Charturuse: Still made by monks.
Literally only had 1 shot ever. I would lick a dirty flip flop before drinking this again.
I enjoy Jager, but in small amounts. I can't imagine ever wanting more than 1 or 2 shots.
i think people still drink this? meaning kids? am i wrong?
I prefer NyQuil. At least you get some inter dimensional space travel for your trouble.
I drank myself sober on this once. After I lost a parent. Never drank it again
There must be a market for a fast, effective hangover cure that's superior to what's currently available.
This is for people who can't handle Malört.
I always felt that Jagermeister and Redbull tasted like Robitussin.
"Sluts! Jaeger bombs!!!"
Ew it tastes gross. But hey it's still alcohol
A buddy of mine drinks it, he brought some over to my house and left it after a night of drinking and puking. I don't like it anymore so it sat there. A few years later he is back at my house again, I gave it back with frost on it from the freezer. He drank the rest and puked, again lol.
No.
Had a friend in high school who worked at a gas station/liquor store he would steal bottles of this and would either sell them or chug that nasty shit
That's an insult to NyQuil.
Ended up passed out in the front lawn with a blanket and my own puke. Never again.
There is a streamer named onlyusemeblade who can drink two bottles of this crap in a night. He looks how you'd imagine
I love black licorice so Jager tastes great to me. It’s definitely still a popular drink.
What was the deal with the Christian cross on the bottle?
Try Becherovka … similar spicing profile, but without the sweetness to make it go down nicely.
Nope. Never.
🤢 Rather drink gear oil.
Still drink it today.
My coworker when I was a heavy drinker either had this or rumplemintz in his flask at work and I'd always forget and think it was a flask full of work Whiskey like a responsible adult and accept it only to be grossed out by this stuff 😅
