Whiskey soda with whatever they have that's decent and cheap. Or if you're really scrounging, well vodka on the rocks.

What a bunch of weak ass drinkers in this thread.
Coming from guy adding ice to his bourbon.
this is fair, but again, he's drinking mid tier bourbon so it probably needs to be opened up a little bit. If he decides to go big and order from the big boy shelf, your critique has merit and I will allow it.

I always assumed that you were an old guy. I'm not even old, but my parents and grandparents have instilled in me a concept of the value of every dollar such that I recognize when something is overpriced and at least hesitate or second guess spending the money if only as a matter of principle. I realize that my grandparents grew up extremely poor during the Great Depression, so they evaluate every dollar spent and hoard everything that they might possibly find a use for later.
Today hardly anyone worries about surviving because they won't find their next meal, but a lot of people have a sense of value and frugalness hardwired into their being from their grandparents who really did worry about having enough food over the next year.

Are you saying poor people shouldn't go to bars?
'Cause I swear bars would go right out of business if that was the case.
If a person is so poor that they are concerned about the cost of the drinks at a bar, then yes, they should not go to said bar. If you are poor and you don't mind staying poor, then knock yourself out.
Prairie Fire - Tequila and Tabasco sauce.
I'm either old or not depending on who you ask. I am 55.
What you are saying there is different than what the OP said. I have a ton of money, but I will not buy something if I don't think there's value there, even though I can easily afford to.
Here's what the OP asked - "Manliest mixed drinks to order at the bar without breaking your wallet?"
That wasn't a question about something being overpriced or getting value. He's asking what he can AFFORD.
Bloww job shot

Come on, man. I know you're a blowhard, but you don't really believe this. It's like saying you shouldn't buy McDonald's if you can't drop $200 on a steak.
Maybe bars should run a credit check on their customers and only serve people with a credit score over 700.
Sounds like a great business plan.
Also, captain and ginger with lime. It's really manly, nice and brown, looks like motor oil.

why is it weak to like something other than bourbon? weird post
OP, why don't you define for us all what "breaking your wallet" means to you? Give us a budget for your bar tab.
If you're truly manly, order whatever you want and that drink will automatically become manly. If you're trying to appear manly, order bourbon, scotch or, best of all, tequila neat.
Asking what the manliest mixed drink is, is like asking what the manliest brand of tampons is. It doesn’t exist.
A manly man living the huge rooster life only orders either a beer, whiskey neat or both.
There is three exceptions:
1) if you live in a tropical climate you can order a rum, neat.
2) if you live in Russia you can order a vodka, neat.
3) if you live in Japan sake is acceptable.

This is not an example of being a blowhard, and yes, I really do believe this.
Read my comment again (see below). I have bolded the important part for you.
"If a person is so poor that they are concerned about the cost of the drinks at a bar, then yes, they should not go to said bar. If you are poor and you don't mind staying poor, then knock yourself out."
And no, what I said there isn't anything like not eating at McDonald's because you can't spend $200 on a steak.
I drink one liquor only, scotch. Always neat and generally JW Blue Label.
If you're worried about the manliness of your drink, you've already lost the manliness race.
If you’re trying to order something “manly” you just look like a poseur.
Order a shot and beer(or any soda). Take the shot then sip the beer and socialize.
If you’re really trying to get wasted order a shot followed by any 2 ingredient drink(booze with soda or juice).
If the place is crowded/bar is slammed only order 2 ingredient drink, nothing fancy or complicated.
Eye contact with Cheers...Toast the person and not the glass.
Wrong, you can spend $200 on a steak. Frankly your point makes no sense -- what, a person can't have a budget? Come on, brother.
