Favorite alchoholic beverages

[stealthhwk]

Dear GOD, Im in crisis!!! Love beer and whiskey but dont ask me to pick favorites as I just cant do it anymore. Love cheap stuff most say is crap! I can't help it, I love Dewars white label, 12, and Famous Grouse and Evan Williams black. I also love good ole cheap Canadian Mist!!! As far as beer goes, I know its from Mexico but nothing beats Dos equis Amber...nothing. Although, I also enjoy Blue Moon, Ziegenbock, and Molson when I can find it. Guess I'll just keep drinking what I like, but damn!!!! Lol! 

 

So, I plead no contest!!!

I'm pretty easy: whiskey and coke (provided it isn't Tennessee Honey, that stuff is nasty). Spiced rum is delicious, but I'm allergic to cinnamon so I don't partake.

I'm going to live up to the stereotype here, but there's nothing better than a properly pulled, properly rested pint of Guinness. @stealthhwk I agree with you on the Blue Moon, and I'm also partial to Doom Bar- a nice crisp cornish ale. Delish. Roll on Friday night!

Tequila and soda with a little slice of lime.

Served over ice, very refreshing any time of the day or night.

Evan Williams is a good bourbon. I usually have that in my bar. I'm more a J&B scotch man myself for making scotch and sodas but it is extremely similar to Dewars and Cutty Sark. 

Favorite drink is probably still that, scotch and club soda.

I like a wide range of beers. Though I hate sour beers and most beers with any sort of fruit flavoring. I prefer porters over stouts. I will drink some IPA's but I am picky on these beers. I pretty much dislike most domestic beers. 

As for liqueurs, I like to drink whiskey. I like pretty much all types from Scotch to Bourbon. One of my favorites is Redbreast 12 year cask strength. I like to drink whiskey with a few ice cubes. I also like mixed drinks like Manhattens and Old Fashioned's.

I love Manhattan's. Bullet bourbon is amazing in Manhattan's. I've been enjoying a lot of bourbon barrel beers lately. We have a good selection of micro brews up here.  Central Waters, Founders, Lakefront are some local ones. I also like most of the stuff Dogfish head brews and Kentucky Bourbon Barrel brews.

First off I like anything with Rum in it, as long as I can taste the Rum. Proof doesn't matter. I just like the taste of Rum. Give me a great (Rum) tasting Long Island Tea, and I am a happy camper. Good Scotch is another favorite on occasions.

However, most of my alcohol consumption these days come from any of the 6%+ beers currently on the market. There is a cheaper brand out there, that sells a case of 30 cans for $14.99 that gets most of business. Gives me a great buzz, which is all I am looking for, at a decent price. A few beers at night, sitting with friends, around a camp fire is is pretty nice. Throw in a few Dominicans, and it's all good.

Im a bourbon guy socially and when I'm at home relaxing with a drink. Blanton's or Four roses single barrel  usually. 

I dont always drink beer, but when i do, its miller lite from my friends bag cooler. 

[NJpatbee]

A good peaty and smoky scotch on the rocks is my favorite drink - Lagavulin, Johnny Walker Double Black, and Laphroig 10 year, are some of my favorites.  I do enjoy an occasional bourbon Manhattan and second the Four Roses Single Barrel (there are a number of variations) as my favorite.

There is nothing like a screwdriver for breakfast on the golf course for me.  SVEDKA Citron (double) orange juice and ice in a to go cup.  Loosens me up for the game ahead.

Drink Smithwicks most of the time,I like to try all the craft beers as well.I do like a good brandy or a hot whiskey when I'm feeling under the weather.

Beer is my preference.  A nice inexpensive red wine with a meal. at times.  Not too dry and not sweet.

With beer, I tend to stay away from the heavier styles (stouts, porters, etc..).  I will drink almost anything labeled Lager, Pilsener, Witbier, Blond, Weissbier, or Saison.  I enjoy Bell's Oberon in the summer.

I haven't had any type of liquor in decades.

I love ice cream and used to consume half a cup every other night if not every night and a beer too. Now I am trying out a mix of Grand Marnier + Bailey's Irish Cream shots 2-3 times a week instead to satisfy the sweet tooth and yet consume a little less sugar (shot qty) and alcohol combined.

I like hoppy beers like IPA's, pale ales... I very much enjoy bourbon as well... basil haydens, woodford. But being a teacher I usually stick to natty light and the occasional 6-pack of the pregame session ale from unknown here in town.

Shock top is a gift from the gods. If I'm drinking liquor it's whiskey sours or old fashioned. If I'm trying to party, it's tequila. 

 

I'm a simple man with simple tastes

Oy, too many to count, but here we go

Beer, I like pale ales and IPAs, but I think the reliance on a ton of hops has been done and overdone.  Proper craft is balance, and too many hops tilt the balance too much.  I buy Sierra Nevada Pale Ale for everyday consumption.  I also love a proper pint of Guinness while in Ireland.  I had a great time drinking hand-pulled real ales in Scotland. 

I like red wine, but don't know a lot about it.  For value and drinkability, I like Italian wines like Chianti or Montepulciano.  I've recently started buying Argentinian Malbecs, and like that for a slightly richer red.

I like bourbon, but prefer Scotch whisky, with a touch of peat.  Caol Ila is my favorite.

Tanquerray gin and Schweppes tonic make a lovely summer drink, with a nice chunk of lime.

That seems like enough favorites.

Due to an unforeseen toothpaste shortage, I found myself at the market yesterday and picked up a bottle of Sam Adams Boston Lager.

It's easy to forget how good an old standard like that is after you haven't had it in a while.
