Damn, Mad Dog 20/20, this just transported me back to the worst hangover I’ve ever had, when I was 15, after drinking two bottles of that. A full day of vomiting. Never touched that stuff again since, but I can still taste it now 30 years later.

ThatGuyFrom720@reddit

I wish I had the teen experience of drinking MD2020.

The only liquor I have sworn off was Pinnacle Whipped… which of course the setting a teenage woods party.

Kriztauf@reddit

I remember 99 bananas got me fucked up. Nobody needs that many bananas

[-]

UncleDuude@reddit

And here to say the same. My stomach flipped when I saw the bottle

[-]

Yupseemslegit@reddit

This was Tuesday night in college

U2ElectricBoogaloo@reddit

I don’t know what MD 20/20 is, but I know by the shape of that bottle that it ain’t good.

[-]

anivex@reddit

I mean, it's alright. Orange one was the best. They get you properly trashed as well if that's what you are looking for.

Very high in sugar though, so it's a young person's drink. Had one in my 30s and the hangover lasted days.

[-]

Griffithead@reddit

Alright is even overselling it pretty hard.

[-]

anivex@reddit

It was better than a lot of the other cheap malt liquor drinks available at the local corner store, is what I mean. Not great, not the worst, just alright.

[-]

Kriztauf@reddit

I remember we used to be able to get something called Clear Creek Ice for like 9 bucks for a 30 pack. It was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted and my friend used to drink them warm

0ktoberMoon@reddit

This was a cheap weekend stuff I use to buy when I was in my 20's. That or cheap random malt liquor 40's from any close convenience store..lol.. But when I had extra money to blow my favorite was Skye Vodka.

[-]

DrDooDooBrown@reddit

I remember dinking orange jubilee in my youth. In my memory it was quite good. I'm almost 40 now and would never even consider drinking one again.

[-]

sagihairius@reddit

MD 20/20 is very sweet, so you can drink a lot of it very fast. The hangover will also make you see God.

[-]

Ruiner5@reddit

Not the good kind of “seeing god” either. More the “I’m going to pray until something shows up and kills me” kind

[-]

Chugged a bottle otw home from getting suspended from school for smoking weed at the lunch table outside the office.

[-]

REQONER@reddit

Exactly.

[-]

Luci-Noir@reddit

Me and some people skipped school one time and were sitting around getting stoned. My friend chugged one in one drink and we left soon after. We almost got hit by a train. I got out of there quickly but he was throwing soon after. That guy eventually got at least four DUIs.

MD Stands for Mas Delicioso .

[-]

urmom68@reddit

MD is your typical high school “steal-from-the-liquor” drink that absolutely gives you the worst hangovers. But the assortment of flavors & colors is pretty!

[-]

Alarming_Cantaloupe5@reddit

Is that MD bottle fogged up from the fridge/freezer? Reds shouldn’t be cold, get civilized already.

[-]

Interesting-Owls@reddit

Man, i remember back in the day I would get a bottle of mad dog and a bottle of vodka, drink a half the bottle of md and refill it with vodka. Good times.

Bottombottoms@reddit

How bad does it have to be though for MD 20/20? This is like a step above Steel Reserve which is just above mouth wash....

[-]

puppycatisselfish@reddit

Ah. Steel Reserve. The flat and warm, RC cola of malt. Thinking about this gave me a hangover

[-]

DeathTripper@reddit

When I was in college, one weekend I was broke af. We went to Walmart, and a 12 pack of Steelies was like 6 bucks, cheap enough for me! That Friday night I had 4 12 oz cans, and proceeded to blackout and say stupid shit to my friends. This is coming from someone who had been partying with hard liquor (even Spirytus, Everclear, etc.). Even the OG Four Lokos, before I was even drinking age, just had me coming in and out of consciousness. Like my friend was driving me home, and I’d pass out for a few seconds, and then be completely lucid the next.

I told myself the next night, “Well, I still got 8 Steels on Reserve, maybe I’ll just do 3, but I’ll expect a possible blackout”. Blacked out again. Didn’t say any dumb shit, that I know of.

I still stand by that 211’s are blackout in a can. It’s what I buy my local bum from time to time. I’d buy him something better (Natty Daddy? Idk if that’s better), but he prefers Steel Reserve.

[-]

Luci-Noir@reddit

It’s a waste of money. Here you can a handle of cheap whisky for $12 and 2-liters of cola for $1.

[-]

backwoodsbatman@reddit

You can get a bottle of MD for way less than that and still have a terrible time.

[-]

asicarii@reddit

How bad does what have to be? Pretty bad. I would put this at a 7/10. It would get 6/10 but they get +1 for shamelessly posting it online while also likely hiding the bottle out of sight when guests come over.

I've had every varietal? of md 20/20. It could be worse

[-]

scud121@reddit

Sweet jesus, I'd scrubbed the memory of this drink from my mind. Used to be sold in our local pub and nightclub in the early 90s, full on loopy juice. Kicking out used to be a nightmare, as tonnes of people would go from a hot nightclub to the cold air and wind up throwing up literally everywhere.

[-]

KittenThunder@reddit

Honestly, the intersection of people who own a dining table and drink MD 20/20 must also be small lol

[-]

TRIKKDADDY@reddit

Actually, the intersection of people who own a fine drinking glass and drink MD 20/20 must be even smaller.

[-]

CreeepyUncle@reddit

The intersection of high blood sugar and pounding headache.

[-]

jsamuraij@reddit

Bro the ratio of people who own a front door and drink mad dog 20/20 is tiny

[-]

breatheintheAlR@reddit

Time I learned a regular drinking glass was considered “fine”

Omg. I haven’t seen mad dog in 25 years. 😂

[-]

kanuckles666@reddit

MD stands for mogen david not mad dog

[-]

adenrules@reddit

Yeah, but no one’s ever called it anything but Mad Dog.

[-]

TemporaryDeparture44@reddit

I was watching Oz recently and there’s a scene where one guard is drinking in the locker room after he had lost participated in a firing squad to kill someone who had killed his buddy. He offers some to his coworker and she says ‘no thanks, I never developed a taste for mogen David.’

I have watched this show 100x over and never knew until very recently that mogen David was the same thing as mad dog. Now that line is so much funnier knowing the guy was drowning his sorrows in mad dog 20/20.

[-]

freeloeder@reddit

Mogen David is a legit kosher wine, MD is a legit bum wine

[-]

kanuckles666@reddit

Ya, I only know bc I used to work for a beer and wine company that delivered it. We always just called it MD and I later learned people called it mad dog. I think they leaned into it and made a canned drink at one point.

[-]

Jinksy93@reddit

It's still very popular in Scotland.

[-]

DickBiggenstein@reddit (OP)

Pull up a chair friend! I’ll crack open another bottle and fix you a plate.

[-]

Marioninleather@reddit

I can tell from the condensation in the bottle you are drinking that cold, which is offensive. You've got to let it breathe and serve it at body temp.

[-]

DickBiggenstein@reddit (OP)

I usually chill it down and insulate it in a high tech paper bag. I’ll try your method next.

[-]

Marioninleather@reddit

The traditional method is to discretely place the bottle in a receptacle directly adjacent to your groin. You then exit the establishment that provided it to you gratis, preumsably in recognition of your social status and community contributions.

After exiting, you allow the bottle to remain snugly intimate until you are away from the public's gauche and prying eyes.

Upon reaching your refuge and setting aside your cares and toils, you open the bottle to let it breathe. Be sure to break your fast before the vintage loses the heat of your body.

Every meal a feast, every paycheck a fortune.

Is 20/20 still a thing? I've not seen it since the 90s when it was briefly the drink of choice for 15/16 year olds in my area who were looking to get wasted.
