    Favourite booze?

    I don't drink much, but I wondered how many people do... and what their favourite is...

    Regards,

    Paul.

    I'm a beer drinker mostly, but when i drink liquor it's usualy in the form of Bloody Mary with extra tabasco and spices Or Long Island Tea. I don't see how people drink straight liquor..makes me wanna puke.

    Ain't an alcoholic, but my favourites (in that order) :

    1) "Laphraig". The best Single Malt ever to have been made by man, and with hardly a chance to better it in the future.

    2) Beer. Any brand. Any where. Any time

    3) Rum. "Old Monk", "Old Cask". Neat, no ice.

    4) Vodka. Again, neat, maybe with sliced green chillies.

    I won't ask what you are doing to the pussies before you start drinking....


    My favourite drink is the Strawberry Suprise.

    It's Strawberry juice mixed with vodka. Half way through the drink the barman smacks you over the back of the head. That's the suprise.

    Or a Bannana suprise. Which is basically the same drink but without the smack.

    That's the suprise, it's not banana flavoured.

    Ever tried Mendhak Surprise?

    It's a large mug of beer, basically, and it will have various objects floating around in it. These objects could be anything from whale snot to broom bristles, from used razor blades to gorilla sperm and chewed up pen caps to chopped up human body parts.

    I myself would normally drink vodka and 7up.
    Purely because you get far less of a hangover when you drink too much.

    If there's a rugby match or if ireland are playing in the soccer, I'd drink beer (smithwicks).

    Yeah I nearly spat my pint with that first thirty seconds.
    Ireland's defense was something else.
    And o'driscoll. Jesus christ. He's on the ball.

    Scotland were triers. You have to give them that.
    They never gave up trying.



    And Wales. Christ.
    I've never seen such a crap team.

    This is definitely my favourite whisky as well. Obviously a man of discerning tastes...
    2) Beer. Any brand. Any where. Any time
    ...Or perhaps not.

    Personally, when it comes to beer, I'll take a real ale. If it comes to lager, I'll have one of those nice Belgian or Bohemian varieties over the ****e that comes out of Britain, America of France.

    And then when it comes to red wine, I'll have (if I've got the money) a fine French Burgandy. Or else a Cote Du Rhone or Beaugulais.
    Everything I say is either loose interpretation of dubious facts or idle speculation rooted in irrational sentiment.

    I agree with Ur comment on the New World beers. Its a tad prosaic for my tongue. Europen Beers are far more full-bodied.

    Fortunately (Unfortunately ?) I am a Hotelier by training. Food & Beverage to be precise. In Sydney, the hotel I was in had a penchant for stocking a single brand of beer from almost every country in the world. And of course all the whiskies from the high/low/mid lands. Each time a new brand was bought, I used to cash my paycheck to purchase a bottle from the liquor store. And therefore more beer than whisky.

    I was smitten by "Laphraig" and "Oban" as the peaty flavour was more to my taste since I was a Rum-ster earlier.

    Wines for me are mostly social and/or ceremonial, but I do have a soft corner for a full-blooded Shiraz. Never much of a white-wine drinker or for that matter bubblies.
