drink of choice?

Most of us have probably heard the correlations between certain drinks and the drinker’s personality. For example, a woman who drinks red wine enjoys wine, is classy, well-educated, etc. A woman who drinks white zinfandel is trashy, un-cultured, etc. (I’m not saying I necessarily agree with these…I’m a closet white zin drinker myself, although I wouldn’t drink it down at my local bar).
What beers and other alcoholic drinks do you drink and what do they say about you?

What drinks say “cool”?
What drinks say “tool”?

Before dinner (special occasions only):

Absolute Vodka from freezer, double, on ice, with squeez of lemon and lemon rind. MMMMMM…
With dinner (couple of times a week):

Wine Red or White depending on my mood.
After dinner (special occasions only):

Port or Irish Mist or a Raspberry Liquor
BBQ:

Almost anything by Samuel Adams and Tequiza is quite refreshing as well.
What does that say about me? Nothing, I hope.

Budweiser.

What does that say about me? It says that I’m on a budget. :slight_smile:

LETS RIDE THIS SAUCER FULL OF SupErlovE INTO OUR FORTOLD UTOPIAN MILLENIUM…

Lately, almost always Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

~Once a week, a nice Merlot or Cabernet.

What does that say about me? I got tired of cheap beer and I live in the heart of California wine country. :wink:

If its not Guiness I just don’t want it. That beautiful rich full flavor. I think I just drooled on my keyboard. That can’t be good. Oh yeah. Now I have all these customers staring at me. To bad you can’t drink on the job.


The computer has brought more problems to man then any other invention in history. That is unless you consider Tequilla an invention.

Chinaco Blue Agave tequilla.

Is this some kind of usenet thing?

After work, once or twice per week: single-malt scotch. I have a fondness for the Highland malts… I am working on an 18-year Glenmorangie right now. I also like the Islay malts (Lagavulin, Laphroaig) as after-dinner drinks - or even during dinner. I once gave a scotch-tasting party and served little appetizers with each class of drinks – did a braised rabbit with the Islay malts that complemented the tastes perfectly.

Sometimes a brandy after a meal, with coffee.

Don’t know what they say about me, but my usuals are gin and tonic in warm weather, single-malt scotches straight up in cool weather, merlots, sangioveses, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, and nearly any variety of beer (other than lite beers, which are an abomination in the sight of the Lord).

Tea—good, strong black tea, preferably Russian. None of your pansy-ass green tea for me!

What does what other people drink say about them? If you saw a guy drinking a martini, would this indicate something about his personality to you?

Peach juice with Peach Stoli, blended with ice. That says I am a girly-girl.

I am more partial to red than white wine. Though if you’re forced to drink BAD wine, bad white wine is usually more tolerable than bad red.

I’m with D_Nice…

Nothing beats a dirty pint of Guinness, when pulled PROPERLY. A very important step which many of the local pubs in this area just don’t quite understand…

What’s it say about me? Not a damn thing respectable.

The Sleeper has AWAKEN!

When with my Chief strong coffee… When with Mrs. Ren-Man we like our Bailey’s… When alone the same as above…Oh, and water…

The worst thing is when you go to a bar or resteraunt and order a Guiness and they have it to your table in like a minute. I send it right the hell back. You cannot serve Guiness properly in under 5-7 minutes. It takes time to pour the perfect pint. Anything served quicker is just bruising the delicate taste of Guiness.

I think that everyone would have to agree with that!!!

Ah, Demo, you getting tired of my Old Milwaukee? Come on, it’s just so…so…so refreshing! :wink:

Lately I’ve been going back and forth between cheap swill (Old Mil.) when I’m broke and expensive microbrews (Lagunitas IPA & Bear Republic IPA) when I’m not so broke. What does that say about me? Maybe that I need to get my finances better in order.

Anger is the insulation to wrap around pain.

Fat Tire…or Goose Island when back home.

Hey, at least I pour it in a glass rather than drink straight from a bottle. I think a beer drinking girl means she is a down-to-earth, no bullshit type.

Summertime:

Bombay Gin and tonic. Or any old Pilsner or Lager.

Winter:

Bass Ale. (Or any Pilsner or lager)

(Looking at the above, I guess that makes me some kind of half-assed Anglophile. Note to self: Drink more Bud!)

Oh yeah, and when out at my favorite Rockabilly club (The Star Bar):

Pabst Blue Ribbon! (What else???)

Been drinking White Russians recently.
Ever seen The Big Lewbowski, dude?

Budweiser. I’m not on a budget, I like Budweiser. Hell, I like beer.

What does this say about me? That I am thirsty.
