Intoxicant 3

[DaveV]

Intoxicant 3

Purchased in a BAR.
A PIPE of ale (or a pipe for smoking drugs).
A NEEDLE is used to inject heroin.
A ROCK of crack cocaine.
Drinks are served on the BEACH.
Beer is popular in AUSTRALIA.

I think the use of "intoxicant" rather than "alcohol" points to mind altering drugs as well as alcohol. I'm not very acquainted with the drug culture, so I may well be missing some other words that have significance in that context.

I'm happy with Bar, Pipe, Needle.

[Bobchillingworth]

Needle, used to inject drugs.


Bar, where you load up on booze.


Pipe, for smoking.



I don't see any other possible connections.

[Lewwyn]

I swear the clues are coming in as I go to bed :D

I agree.
