This is a thread I like to resurrect from time to time just to see what kind of alcoholic beverages people are imbibing. I’ve been off this board (and offline entirely, in fact) for almost a year, and so I think the time has come. Name your poison…
I’m still sticking with my tried and true favorite, Janis Joplin’s spirit of choice, Southern Comfort. By the shot, straight no chaser. But of course man cannot live by whiskey alone. So I’ve also been dabbling in various rums, including Bacardi, Capt. Morgan’s and Parrot Bay. And my buddy James has been letting me sample his ever changing roster of single malt scotches. Pretty good stuff, if I do say so myself.
On the beer front, I’m still sticking with the cheap American domestic swill, such as Budweiser, Rolling Rock, and of course Milwaukee’s Best Ice, or Icebeast, as I call it. What can I say; I’ve got lowbrow taste. But I like it.
My usual is good old Jack No. 7(straight, never as a shot, three ice cubes.) My preferred drink is Jack Daniel’s Single barrel. I’d love to get a full barrel, but $8400 is a little too much to justify to my wife.
On the beer side, I like trying new brews, but Bud Ice is always my back-up. If I’m just looking for a buzz, nothing works better then Steel Reserve.
Tangueray and tonic, with lime of course. I’ve been drinking this since I was 14.
Saporo Beer isn’t bad, neither is Yuengling (did I spell that right?) but my new beer is called Sparks. It’s pretty exciting and tastes like carbonated yellow Gatorade, with a kick.
Scotch, rocks. Given a choice I’ll order Chivas.
When it comes to beers I wander, esp. depending on where I am and what they’ve got on draught. Lately I’ve been drinking a lot of the lighter lagers like Bass and Harps. Drinking at home is almost always cheap American, Coors Light and MGD being astronomically more common than all other labels.
Margaritas for a mixed drink, preferably with something other than Cuervo but I’m not really much of a Tequila afficianado. In any case, you’re mixing it so does it really matter?
