Good old Scottish nectar!

I consider myself warned.

Hmmm...

What's with his comment about caffeine? I've never heard of wine having caffeine.

[–] PM_Your_Nudes_Please@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

It’s fortified wine with caffeine. It’s basically Four Loko, if Four Loko tasted like Benadryl’s bastard stepchild.

Buckfast has caffeine added to it.

If that's the fast part of the name, I'm not sure I want to know where the buck comes from.

A deer carcass

Buckfast gets you fucked fast, brewed by monks, drunk by punks, BUCKFAST

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Wreck the hoose juice

American here. What is this stuff? Is it intended to be consumed in a particular fashion, not just gulped down in a glass?

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 45 points 10 months ago

It's fortified wine with caffeine and is associated with people getting drunk and causing trouble

[–] Afghaniscran@feddit.uk 67 points 10 months ago

The buckfast motto tells you everything you need to know.

Buckfast gets you fucked fast.

It's intended to be consumed in a park directly from the bottle.

An ungodly fortified tonic wine brewed by people of god. Brewed could even be a strong word, if I had to guess, I would say it's extracted from a natural reserve which was originally thought to be oil until they realised it gets you shitfaced.

Bucky has one purpose. It's the thoroughbred of not-spirits.

Best served warm and straight from the bottle to the back of the throat.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 73 points 10 months ago (3 children)

It’s mostly consumed as an act of bravado in Scotland and the north of England, with the intention of getting riotously drunk.

[–] dmention7@lemm.ee 45 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like Jager bomb in a convenient twist-off bottle

[–] Skua@kbin.social 32 points 10 months ago

This is an apt comparison, especially since Buckfast is also caffeinated

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It appears it's kind of like MD 20/20 here in America. Cheap, sugary "bum" wine.

I just read they also add caffeine to it. Jesus.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh gods, mixing madd dog with four loko sounds horrible.

I tried buckie once! Drank a whole bottle, later that night had some sort of weird seizure while trying to go for a piss. Mashed my face against the skirting board, looked like I'd been in a fight the next day.

Buckfast. Just say no.

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 91 points 10 months ago (1 children)

red bull gives you wings

buckfast gives you epilepsy

[–] Transcendant@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago
