When the weather is warm we have ENWTN (East Nashville White Trash Night) where we all hang out on my porch and you are required to drink something from a paper bag. Boone's Fuzzy navel is my fave, but I never turn down a grape MD 20/20. Keep up the excellent work, folks.

Comment:  EntryNo: 1405  Date: Friday 11:46 01.30.2009 MH12 I began drinking "bum wines" as a nearly destitute college student in North Carolina, USA in the early 90's. Here's some bygones that I'd like to hear more about (haven't seen in at least 10 years, since the big wineries took over everything cheap) Swiss Colony: Sold port, muscatel and sherry, all for less than $3.00 a fifth, with alcohol content of 18% plus. I used to buy this at the local Food Lion quite often, circa 1992. DC wine. Came in both white and red. Local "winery," circa 1992. The screw caps never fit quite right. Tasted like Kool-Aid with a major kick. Alcohol content 18%. White Rocket: A whopping 20-21% alcohol content, and dirt cheap. Quite vile, but somewhat palatable when I mixed it with ginger ale. The last time I saw this brand was about 1996, but this may have been leftover stock from long before. Scorpio. 18% alcohol. Tasted pretty close to Richard's "classic." Could have been distributed by a major competitor. Disappeared from shelves around 1995. La Rosa Red Dagger (by the Tanner Winery somewhere in South Carolina): 18% alcohol, circa 1990-1994. The cheapest of the cheap, always at least 50 cents cheaper per fifth as the nearest competitor. Awful, producing diarrhea much worse than any competitor. Jesus, I drank a lot of this stuff, and even found it once or twice in the 3 liter bottle. Longhorn: I think this is the right name. I only found it once, while traveling in rural coastal Virginia circa 1998. By far the worst bum wine, even by bum wine standards, that I have ever consumed. But it does meet the requirements: very cheap, high alcohol (18 or 19%, if I recall rightly)screw cap, etc. Aaah, nostalgia! BTW, has Mogen David completely discontinued the 18% classic "grape"? That was my first righteous alcohol buzz, and I'm bummed that all I can find anymore is the wimpy 13%.

Comment: eutaw223gmail.com  EntryNo: 1403  Date: Tuesday 13:28 01.27.2009 Kevin Favorite: NightBird Both ThunderBird and Night train can be purchased at Budget Liquors in Normal, IL. When you combine both bottles (1 bottle of Night Train and 1 bottle of Thunderbird) nicknamed NightBird and consume both bottles in 1 hour or less it is almost promised that you will piss yourself..If you can drink both bottles in under that allowed time and dont result in a piss soaked passed out drunk you are a TRUE drinker..feel free to send your NightBird pics to ktgamt85@aol.com Comment: ktgamt85aol.com kevinscaddy97  EntryNo: 1402  Date: Saturday 14:29 01.24.2009 Marie Harris Favorite: Cisci I love Cisco.Whooooo Comment: marieharris6969gmail.com  EntryNo: 1401  Date: Thursday 07:55 01.22.2009 Bob Favorite: Boones Farm Apple wine (original) When I was in college, one of my best parties was a cheap/bum wine tasting party. Guests were instructed to actually buy the most esoteric, cheapest wine - that everyone see on the shelf, would never buy but is mildly curious as to it's taste. The collection ranged from Ripple, Swizzle, Bazli Hai (don't know if they are even still sold still!). It was a great party and "many" atendees actually found wine that they would buy!

Although I was fully aware of the much higher alcohol content in ThunderBird, I foolishly started my relationship with the 750 ml size. Thinking my previous experiences had prepared me for the next step downward in my depreciating taste for inexpensive booze I soon found myself in an altogether unfamiliar place. The pernicious flavor was not a factor to my weathered taste buds and I finished the bottle in a rather prompt manner so as to "get my krunk on" in a timely fashion. What ensued was an account my memory was deficient in capturing properly and I could only be given statements from those who had witnessed the event. From reliable sources it was revealed to me the next day that I had lost many articles of clothing in a game of strip poker in which nobody else was engaged besides myself. Since then, it's safe to say, my relationship with T-Bird has become stronger out of the respect I found for the power it wields but I don't think a full commitment is going to be easily accomplished. Not unless I become an actual bum...

Perhaps for the sake of the site you guys can get in contact with him to purchase said bottle. Enjoy. Comment: daniel_eysteryahoo.com  EntryNo: 1397  Date: Monday 12:01 01.12.2009 Jim the Mad Dog Favorite: Cisco My only run-in with these wines was in my young and foolish days when I picked up a bottle of Cisco on the way to a part-time job (the job only required that I be awake; nobody cared if I had a drink on the job). I thought it was a wine cooler type of beverage and poured myself a tall one on ice. It being a warm day and the taste not being entirely awful I poured another before the effects of the first one caught up with me. Big mistake. This on an empty stomach left me so completely s-faced that I could hardly see straight. When I got off work a an hour later I tried to drive myself home and in no time at all had a cop following me. I promptly turned into a shopping center and went in to cool my heels and have never touched Cisco since. Ironically Cisco Routers are now an important part of my job. If you are a person who believes in signs, what do you think I would have ended up doing if I'd tried Night Train instead? Comment:  EntryNo: 1396  Date: Saturday 20:24 01.10.2009 Suga A friend forwarded me on to this site and i loves it. I think an interesting direction to take would be looking at ciders as they are the choice for bums around the beer belt area. Just looking at this site reminds of some run ins with tramps and the time me and some friends found a nest of em.

Many a fridge filled with the "Beast" and MD 20/20. Thanks for the good times MD 20/20. Comment:  EntryNo: 1394  Date: Tuesday 23:04 01.06.2009 Mike Favorite: Cisco I had to travel deep into the hood to buy these gems. A pleasent man standing outside of the store tried to sell me and my friend some needles. When we politely told him no thanks, he became irate and forced us to buy him a bag of popcorn in order to leave with our lives.:,-B So far all we have tried was the Cisco, and all I can say is WOW. I chugged two bottles and felt nothing. I went to the bathroom to crap, and it was on the bowl that it took me by surprise. I am amazed I was able to remember how to wipe myself. I awoke the next morning hugging the toilet. I have 5 bottles of Thunder birds 375ml, and one Night Train 750 left to consume. May god have mercy on my soul. Comment:  EntryNo: 1393  Date: Saturday 22:36 01.03.2009 Adam Favorite: MD 20/20 Hey fellow Bumwine lovers, One of my good friends is going to be turning 21 in February, and I have decided to try to compile a complete set of MD 20/20 flavors as his present. I am currently using Ghettowine.com's list as a guide, and know I have seen all but a couple of these flavors, the most obvious missing being Buck Bunny. I was hoping someone would be kind enough to help me in my hunt for any flavors I will not be able to find. I currently go to school in Milwaukee, so finding all the flavors might not be an issue, but it would be nice to know I have an aid in the hunt if it comes down to that. If you are interested, please e-mail me at kooldude135789@yahoo.com Thanks a Ton! Adam Comment: Kooldude135789yahoo.com  EntryNo: 1392  Date: Thursday 23:17 01.01.2009 Redneck B. As a very young man in North Carolina, I often heard "Cracklin' Rosie" referred to as "Wild Irish Fight-cha-moma". I thought it was a joke at the time. Comment:  EntryNo: 1391  Date: Wednesday 15:35 12.31.2008 Swill Drinka Favorite: Wild Irish Rose Love the site, very informative and objective. I was introduced to Wild Irish Rose in college when I moved to Boston and could no longer just go buy boos at the store as I did in Louisville. We actually had to pay bums to go buy alcohol for us and we met Wild Irish Rose. A ten spot could buy a bottle for the bum, me, and my roommate with change left over. Everyone in my dorm hated me and my roommate but we had a good time. Comment: apple24gmail.com  EntryNo: 1390  Date: Wednesday 12:30 12.31.2008 Christopher Favorite: Night Train The "Malort" from your "Others" page should DEFINITELY be included as Bum Wine. You have a ? on the alcohol content: its THIRTY-FIVE PERCENT! The stuff is 70 Proof and tastes so utterly vile that its become a staple in the hardcore biker subculture. Apparently, just being able to stomach the gut-rotting concoction is a clear demonstration of biker-manliness. Comment:It is not a wine at all though. obamahatestheflyersyahoo.com Obamahatestheflyers  EntryNo: 1389  Date: Monday 22:03 12.29.2008 Mikhail Favorite: Night Train Night train does not taste anyware near "consentrated Satan, or clorax" And this is coming from a person that HATES wine. i only got it cause i wanted to see what all the hype was about, Its very much drinkable. i am drinking it as recommened which is very cold. I dont really like the taste(cause i hate wine) but this is probly better tasting then md 20. Comment: miggeru87gmail.com  EntryNo: 1388  Date: Thursday 20:46 12.25.2008 AHP I am a heavy drinker and half a bottle of night train gave me the worst hangover of my life. Thanks bumwine! Comment:  EntryNo: 1387  Date: Wednesday 08:03 12.24.2008 Wino Joe from Kokomo. Pastene fortified wines like Muscatel and Port were the bums drink of choice around here back in the day. I think they were about 20% and definitely deserved their nickname of "kookoo juice". The hangover was brutal, especially if you woke up in jail.

Comment: www.1guy1cup.com aolrebellionldrhotmail.com  EntryNo: 1384  Date: Sunday 21:59 12.21.2008 winefor2vegasstyle Favorite: Night Train at first I brushed off the notions that this type of wine resulted in blackouts and produced a behavior not unlike that by a post Katrina looter. I could not have been more wrong. About three quarters of the way through my first 375 of Thunderbird, not only was I singing the jingle, which, I've never heard, but I was also singing the praises of this underestimated American classic. After I finished that 375, a good buzz was in the lead, right behind him was a head full of mush, and bringing up the rear, was the greatest case of the warm and fuzzies I've ever had. as I started on my next 375 of another highly regarded vintage, nighttrain express, I remember thinking to myself that perhaps I could handle the so-called destructive powers that these long sought after Classics will yield. Again, I could not have been more wrong. My night was ruined, the next day was ruined, I was ruined, dinner was burned beyond recognition, and my girlfriend said, "that was the most unimpressive displays yet to date." Thanks for great web site and a very informative bunch of information. I will be visiting a bus stop soon Comment:  EntryNo: 1383  Date: Sunday 04:36 12.21.2008 jeremy Favorite: wild i i'm a broke college guy,i drink the wild i very often.its cheap and easy to chug.though after about the 2nd pint,it leaves your stomach feeling nasty.the buzz is good though,and i've only had one hangover... Comment:  EntryNo: 1382  Date: Saturday 18:31 12.20.2008 Bumwyne4life Favorite: Brights Pale Dry Select Shout out from Canada! I was drinking Manishewicz, or whatever it's called, and then the local LCBO replaced it with Mogen David, but this was not the Mad Dog stuff...it was 11% and $8.00. Now I am not -SPAMMER-ish, but I like their sweet, cheap wine. I did a search for Mogen David and found this website. Then, on your recommendation, I went with the Bright's Pale Dry Select, which is 20% and more than 50? cheaper. Here is my bill for my purchase, on the date of my post. Thank you, www.bumwine.com. I may not have access to most of the others, but I am now a member of the Bumwine Crew NOTE: After a preview of the post, I noticed you can't say the name of the religion Mogen David wine is for. I didn't mean any disrespect. Weird. Anyway, thanks again, www.bumwine.com! Comment:  EntryNo: 1381  Date: Friday 08:38 12.19.2008 Dr. Gorgeous Favorite: none (anymore) I too have a long and sorted history with what I now know as bum wine. Back at college in the early 90's, money was tight and the nights long so we naturally gravitated towards the most buzz for the $. T-Bird and MD 20/20 were the frequent choices and many tales grew from the dreaded MD-40 combo. Something about cheap malt liquor on top of a lighting creek MD seemed to drive people insane (kicking down doors, fighting, placing testicles on a salad plate). But that was mere child's play until that one fateful Sat afternoon when my roommate found a few strange bottles of Cicso in the local liquor mart. We didn't know what it was, but it bent our minds over backwards and, thank god in heaven, we never saw it available again. That shit will haunt my dreams.

Any way, one night I crack a Wild I, take a sip and decide to drink something else that night. The next night I open the fridge, grab my day old Wild I, and dammit it tastes great (for a bum wine). Seriously, crack open a bottle of Wild I, take a sip, put the cap back on and put it in the fridge. the next night drink away and it's so much easier to get down, one may per change say good.

Quick - true story, on 12.31.1986 i started drinking at noon and didn't stop for about 14 hours - in the first 4 hours i had a bottle each of TJ Swann, Night Train, MD and Wild Irish Rose - but i didn't puke until i poured beer down on top of that. I was rocked, stumbling, slurring, crying, fighting and crazy. I hurt for days after that, and i haven't had bum wine since. Comment:You reach a point where enough is enough, and you have to give up the bum wine. Unless you're a bum, and then you keep guzzling.  EntryNo: 1344  Date: Thursday 17:16 10.30.2008 Katy Black Favorite: Buckfast My God, where is the the ultimate bum wine, the wine of vandalism, assault and general chaos?

I bought 2 liters of it with 2 bottles of water for $52 pesos (about $4.50 USD. One bottle led to restless sleep followed by 16 hours of hangover. Comment: jokobaexcite.com  EntryNo: 1342  Date: Wednesday 12:31 10.29.2008 Steve Favorite: MD 20/20 I grew up about 10 miles down the road from Westfield, NY, where they make the putrid swill MD 20/20. So needless to say, it is plentiful around here and can be found in any liquor store (even non-ghetto ones), and many times is shelved along with the local vintages. There were many times in college where I got trashed off the stuff, and even blacked out a couple of times and woke up in random places. Those days are long gone, but I will always have a warm place in my heart for the swill, and I even still "enjoy" some once every year, when I attend my fraternity's annual alumni banquet. We have a tradition called "Red, White, and Blue" where we pass around a bottle of MD Red Grape, some white Boone's, and an oil-can (25oz.) of Labatt Blue until they are gone. Many, many have puked from this ritual, and as you might expect, the MD is always the last of the 3 to be finished. This initially started as a method of messing with the pledges and young guys, but now has become a mainstay of both young and old members. If you ever try it, I would advise having more than 3 people partake in the festivities or the results could be lethal (I did it once in college with only 2 other guys and woke up many hours later on a park bench in my boxers covered in newspapers). I would advise 5 to 7 people for a good Red, White, and Blue that will get you buzzed but not kill you.

I found it in an old mom & pop store in Maine all covered in dust right next to the steamer with the green hot dogs. It should have been called Black Out.

Favorite: None, that I remember I remember buying T bird in my younger years.We'd get 5 cent packets of blackberry Kool-Aide to pour into it, trying to make it palatable, sort of like Bali Hai. It didn't work well and made the puke wonderously colored. At the beach, we used to bury the bag in the sand up to the neck with a straw coming out of the top. Just lay on your stomach sipping that evileness and watching the women. It got nasty if the law caught you then with booze on the beach, so that's why we buried it. Thanks for the memories.

Lol brings back a lot of memories. Yeah I still have some memory cells left in my brain despite what Cisco and Mad Dog did to me in the 80s. BTW there's a good pic of Ripple at http://flickr.com/photos/239 46753@N03/2515262428. Apparently somebody still has an unopened bottle of this vintage lol. Comment:  EntryNo: 1329  Date: Sunday 00:23 10.05.2008 Chrisbee Favorite: Night Train I've drank them all and respect them all. One time I drank MD with a friend in a parking lot till our lips turned blue...I never had a bad experience with Cisco, but the last time I drank T-bird I blacked out and fell ten feet out of a tree (I was hiding from the cops). Nowadays I stick to Miller and the occasional tequila binge...popskull wine is definitely a young man's game, but every now and then I get a short dog of Train and make my friends make funny faces as they watch me drink it. Comment: coolcalmchrisgmail.com  EntryNo: 1328  Date: Wednesday 07:05 10.01.2008 john chapman I couldn't find information about it. It was probably 81 or 82. We got a bottle of Cannon 21. It said "Make your own 21 gun salute!" It may have been 21% alcohol too. I had one drink, and that was all I could take. I still remember the burning in my throat, and the taste of paint thiner. You would beg to freshen you mouth with Thunderbird if you could find some. Comment:  EntryNo: 1327  Date: Tuesday 17:08 09.30.2008 French Favorite: Rosie in a skirt We just went to a wedding in Minneapolis and for the bachelor party, two guys brought over all except MD 20/20 for a tasting. Blecchh! Yes, we agree, Thunderbird is the worst tasting. We were able to confirm that all five are available at the Chicago-Lake Liquor Store located at Chicago and Lake. They call it a "transitional neighborhood."

I had a few experiences with Cisco when the packaging had a script logo against a black background that I cant even talk about without bugging myself out. After the label changed it didn't seem to have that extra mind bending twist to it. Is it just me?

I couldn?t possibly do all of this kind of ?research? myself and still live to write about it. On another tack it is interesting just what depths the wealthy people who run corporations will stoop to in order to fill their pockets. It was especially interesting that E&J Gallo Winery went to such considerable trouble to conceal their marketing of Night Train and Thunderbird. Now why, I wonder, would they do that? Are they not proud of their fine product and all the foolishness and misery it generates? Maybe the people who profit from this stuff should be required to consume it.

Comment: ishakebearsgmail.com  EntryNo: 1320  Date: Wednesday 13:24 09.10.2008 Fraser Favorite: Mad Dog Very funny site, really enjoyed reading the reviews. You might be interested to know that some of these fine American bum wines are exported over to these shores, infact MD 20/20 (Strawberry) was one of the first drinks I ever got my hands on as a young lad. I can still remember to this day that it did quite a number on me and can't say that I've touched it since. I recently noticed something interesting/worrying - Thunderbird has become widely available as well, together with Mad Dog it sits proudly alongside the local favourite Buckfast in only the crappiest of booze stores. Perhaps our Scottish bums are developing a taste for these fine imported wines? You're right about the Cider though, it remains the choice of the majority. Comment:  EntryNo: 1319  Date: Wednesday 06:19 09.10.2008 Adele Maestranzi In the Lower End of Southie (South Boston) where I grew up, the libation of choice was Pastene White Port. One snowy night around Christmas, my girlfriend and I saw this pitiful bum stemming outside one of the local packies (Southie had a lot of them!). When we went inside the store, my girlfriend suggested that we buy the guy something and suggested a nip of Kaluha (she grew up in Delaware - what do they know about bums?). I countered that I knew what he REALLY wanted, so when we got outside, we presented the guy with a pint of Pastene, discreetly wrapped in a paper bag. It got the guy out of the snow and back to his rooming house, and gave us a warm, fuzzy holiday glow! Comment: adelemaestranziyahoo.com  EntryNo: 1318  Date: Tuesday 15:01 09.02.2008 12 Pretty funny site at first glance. But when you stop and think of what these cheap wines with a high alcohol content are doing to people?alcoholism and shattered lives don?t seem so funny. A few years ago I was in a grocery store at 8:00 am on a Sunday. The guy behind me looked a little rough and he was buying a large bottle of rubbing alcohol and a two liter bottle of Wink soda. It really didn?t hit me until I walked out of the store that the guy was going to make a morning cocktail. You don?t have to be a bum to be an alcoholic. But if you?re an alcoholic there is a sad chance you could be. I support a local Rescue Mission that provides food, shelter, and a variety of other help to alcohol and drug dependent people. It would be nice if you guys would take some of the time and energy that you put into this site and create a new site that would do something to help alcoholics. It seems to me that it would not only be a socially responsible thing to do? but also very human. Comment:  EntryNo: 1317  Date: Monday 16:08 09.01.2008 Steel Favorite: My own This was a laugh. I love the content and funny descriptions. You should add a sister site that covers all the legendary bum beers and bum liquors. I wanted to also add that it is easy and fun to make your own wine, cheap and easy, can even make straight sugar wine that will have 20% if you use turbo yeast. Bums dont have the motivation, but I am on my way to being one and I make my own hooch. Comment: manthefran2yahoo.com coffeebot  EntryNo: 1316  Date: Monday 02:30 09.01.2008 Hillery Favorite: 2 Buck Chuck Reading the reviews for these wines made me vomit in my mouth a little. 2 buck chuck is as low as I'll go, I have a crazy feeling Thunderbird would make me curse my mother for giving birth to me. My husband and I were reading the reviews, then I turned to him. I said "I would rather eat raw dog penis than try a mouthful of any of these wines." Then I stopped and thought for a moment, and realized I wasn't exaggerating in the slightest. Luckily for me, to my knowledge, none of these are sold in the entire state of Utah, where I currently live. So even if I did have the misfortune of becoming homeless, I would not treble my misfortune with these wines.

I was trying to explain to somebody in USA (Florida) what Mad Dog was (I now live in USA) and got your site from google (good ranking mate). I explains its virtues remarkably well - a near 'Wino' drink which always has the desired effect when your looking for cheap oblivion.
