If you could have only one TYPE of alcohol for the rest of you life, what would you choose?

(I choose Sake'... Warm or cold, it is the stuff of life.)

If this is limited to hard liquor, I would choose dark spiced rum.
If its not, I'd take ice cold beer.

Beer...Life is good when my fridge is full of Stella Artois.

Bailey's Irish Cream!

Mmmmm...

:)

I have rum and coke when I go down to the pub. At my local, it only costs £1.20 for a single shot of rum! My usual rum is Lambs Rum.

I accidentally voted other. I meant to vote Neutral Spirits. That covers gin, right? I can make do with martinis for the rest of my life.

*smacks*

Stella? You digust me :p

Get some Newcastle Brown Ale down yer neck, or Guinness, or...most other beers. Apart from the fact that stella is lager, I'd recommend just about anything other than Skol, Carling or Budweiser (US). Please. Stop hurting your tastebuds :D

mmm... Tequila.

Is Lamb's Rum dark? I've never had it.
Have you tried Captain Morgan? Over ice with just lime, or with coke-its great?

I really enjoy Guinness. I also like Bass ale.

Tullamore Dew, fine Irish Wiskey

now this is getting tough.after giving this more thought, I drink single malts in the cooler months and rum in the warmer months.

Never really liked Bud, but Samuel Adams has several good beers.

Mankind has been making beer for thousands of years. There's got to be some reason for that. As such, I chose beer.

Yeah, Sam Adams is one of the better large quantity beers in the US.

I'll always prefer smaller stuff though. Local microbrews, homebrews and the like.

Jupiler, Stella Artois, Primus Haacht, Maes, Duvel, Rodenbach, Palm, Leffe, Delirium Tremens, Barbar, ... the list of great beers goes on, and this is only the Belgian stuff :D

Yeah, there is. They were waiting for someone to build a still so they could turn beer into something a little stronger.

Other - All.

Drink of preference is a nice cold bottle of Newcastle Brown.

I'd pick vodka - it goes well with juice and pop! ^_^ It's also good straight (once in a while).

Hell yeah. Good neat alright.

Yup...You guys make the best beer. Hoegaarden is good stuff too

My god people! Bring on the Jager!

*joins in drinking a pint*

When the bars near you stock Newcastle brown or castlemaine, you drink Newcastle brown :p

a nice bottle of red, delicious.

Naaah...I prefer Belgian beer. I like their dark beer, but for some reason I haven't the taste for that english dark stuff.

Beer. Foster's probably. I don't actually think it's that nice, it's just i drink it like water. :P Or Stella, the drunk's drink.

Nah, Tennets super is the Drunk's Choice. Stella is actually 'Wifebeater' lager

Hmmm...well as much as I like my beer, if I were to stop spending money on other types of alcohol, my choice would definetly have to be wine. I mean, with the money I'm saving on beer and hard liquor, I can get some real tasty wines

Mmmmmmm..... :D

*Nervous laugh*

Ha, pint, yeah.

*Toe pushes half empty crate behind the bar before anyone notices*

Beer.

I'm German, what is there more to say?
A Schöfferhofer Hefeweizen (or two, or three, or more) is all that I'll ever need.
And maybe a Grappa, but I can go without that one.

Newcastle Brown Ale?

Not even if you paid me. Newcastle is on par with Natty Ice for having a piss-poor flavor and a dull cotton mouth inducing aftertaste. I'll stick w/ Killian's and Guinness.

When I lived in NY, there was a local liquor store that had a huge selection of micro-brews.
On a friday night on the way home, I used to try mixed six packs.
"Harpoon" and "Anchor Steam" were both good ones.
We also used to hit a microbrew-pub in New Paltz,NY-"The Guilded Otter"- they had six or so brews made on the premises and we'd get samplers-always a treat.

I had a pint bottle of "Maudite" one time-I'm pretty sure it was Canadian. It unexpectedly kicked my ass. I wont drink anything with the devil and a canoe on the label again.

Beer, damnit! It's the only alcaholic beverage I've had in a *somewhat* large quantity... Well, besides Zima, if you wanna call that an alcaholic drink.

if i could have one drink, it would be Bacardi Limon (rum) and 7-Up

but of that list, i would choose beer... more specifically, the ales (ale, porter, stout).

Nah, Tennets super is the Drunk's Choice. Stella is actually 'Wifebeater' lager
That's the one! Another nomination for drunk's drink would be "Lynx Super Lager". Never had it, just from the name. :p

I tasted Zima once and didnt care for it. The only malts I like are the single malt scotch whiskies. I like Bushmills Irish Whiskey too. Even Crown Royal whisky

Not even if you paid me. Newcastle is on par with Natty Ice for having a piss-poor flavor and a dull cotton mouth inducing aftertaste. I'll stick w/ Killian's and Guinness.
Yeah, but where I am, the only Guinness is Guinness extra cold. Anything with 'extra cold' strapped on the end tastes a little bit too much like antifreeze for me.

I chose the neutral spritits one. Vodka is my thing. However, I haven't drank enough to acquire the taste for beer yet, I think. I sort of liked Guinness...


Has anyone had Natty Bo? Natty Bo is TERRIBLE but its so cheap; its the beer of choice with my cheap friends.

Heh. I had two whole bottles of Zima when I was five, and it did absolutely nothing. I remember it tasting like a mix of Sprite and Vodka.

Wine for me: cheap wine, fine wine, expensive wine whatever.

Worst.... Drink.... Ever. Carling Extra Cold. Gah.

Apple Juice.

Wait...Wrong Topic.

I like a nice strong port, though that being the wine used at Communion at my Church, and the fact being that I am underage, I don't have much experience otherwise.

I've on occasion tried what my parents were having, i.e. a sip of champagne here and there, or a sip of pinot gregio (sp?). The Champagne was bearable, but anything else I've tried is :eek:

Yarr! A piratess be me, and ah need my grog! Or rum without the water warms my tum well enough.

Actually, coconut rum, with coke or pineapple.

Wild Turkey for me or some of my own corn squeezings.

other: Where's the mead? Surely the finest of all drinks! :D

Tho out of the others i'd say beer, as long as it was my homebrew, none of this commercial brewery crap. The last batch i did was a nice dark malty beer, 30 pints of the stuff, working out at about 35p a pint. Lovely. :)

you should try Barbãr, it's a kind of honey-beer (NOT mead; it IS beer)

I chose beer. If I could only have one sort of beer??
Finnish Karhu! (Karhu=Bear) Funny :p

nothing tops a nice killians.

Sniff. Nobody else likes Sake? :(

Barbarians. :p

Heh, strongest thing in my drinks cabinet is 75% alcohol Rice wine, with some other 70% Chinese spirit. Note, not proof...but alcohol content.

Sniff. Nobody else likes Sake? :(

Barbarians. :p


I like sake, but dont keep it in the house. Its more occasional when we go to a hibachi steak house or for sushi. Plum wine too. Both ok with me, but not favorites.

I have a mild "too much beer" headache (or that could be lack of sleep, but whatever), so out of spite, I vote whiskey.

Where's the "Whatever I can get guys to buy me in the bar" button?

Although personal preference? I've got a 10 gallon still in my basement that produces small batches of the world's best 'shine.
