Hmmmm ... I wonder if an equally valid challenge might be to see if the
subject can actually tell what is/is not real Galiano [sic] when compared
to other nasty liqueurs and liquids.

I've been saying for years that Galiano [sic] tastes like a mixture of
vodka and Robitussin. Why not have the subject try to determine which is
straight Galiano and which is vodka/Robitussin? Maybe a third glass with
something like whiskey and castor oil ... I wonder how many avid Galiano
fans could tell which is which. It's been known, for example, that
brand-loyal beer drinkers consistently fail tests that have them try
to determine which is their brand.

No, a straight shot would be a dead giveaway. You have to try two
drinks and tell me which one has Galliano in it. A drink that makes it
hard to taste the Galliano would be a good sample.

There are some very interesting drinks made with Galliano. One of them
is called a Wooholly F*ck...Annie wasn't sure if that was the name of a
drink or something that Margeth was going to the Del-Mar for. ;)

Here's the chapter on Galiano [sic] from the sometime-to-be-released
compendium of DLVlore ...

+Galiano [sic] is a very nasty substance. I've been told that it is
+commonly used as a jet fuel additive and an indistrial degreaser. The
+taste (and the effect) of Galiano can be approximated by a 50/50 mix of
+vodka and Robitussin. (Kids, don't try this at home, adults, don't try
+this anywhere.) Most people know Galiano [sic] as the key ingredient in
+a Harvey Wallbanger and a Golden Cadillac.

+Needless to say, this stuff is recklessly intoxicating!

+Margeth drinks Galiano [sic] straight. Margeth also decided that all of
+us present at Keys Lounge one evening should have the pleasure (??) of
+drinking Galiano straight.

+So, she ordered a round for the table, not allowing anybody to opt out
+of the process.

+I remember joking around about what was this, lighter fluid? Maybe
+Nyquil? Acetone?

+I took sips of it every so often, not wanting to appear unappreciative
+to Margeth's sudden generosity.

+Little did I know that whenever I turned my head, Densie would pour
+part of hers, and possibly of others glasses into mine, so my sips were
+consistently replenished.

+To make a long story short, I got very drunk very fast, to the
+amusement of all onlookers, and very sick afterward.

+Oh yes, I became very well acquainted with Ralph that night, or rather
+that morning. :(

+Galiano has become quite the legend at DLV. Ever since 1998, an annual
+game of "get Annie to drink Galiano" has been played.
+. . . . .

Other chapters may include such things as:

Beginnings
Excess baggage
7-11
Cold bath
Galiano
DelMar
Oh Pooh!
