I pretty much always drink the same things, havent switched up in years. But now im curious to know what everyone else is liking these days. Figure maybe ill give a few new drinks a shot.


I myself am a crown royal man most the time, or single malt scotches when i have a little extra money to burn. and once or twice a year (or maybe more, shhh!) sharing some enigma blanche absinthe with the wife is great, shipping is just horrible! but a bottle of that can normally last us a year or two, and its time to order another bottle soon as we ran out over the weekend lmao.

For beer, i like me some rolling rock or yuengling. i havent really tried many foreign beers tho.


We definetly have some members here that like to drink, so dont be shy.......

Wow, we have very similar taste in liquor. But the only beer i have even heard of is Sam Adams on your list, with our similar taste i will see if i cant find some of them others you listed.


Camoninja, tequila makes me violent :(

Sounds like me and you should share a few fingers of scotch one of these days! If you want to find some of the beers I mentioned a BevMo may have them if you live near a BevMo, some of the breweries I mentioned are kind of local to me so you might be high and dry on those (sorry).
 
Everyday beer: Yuengling lager.
Favorite beer: Good God man. That's like asking me to name my favorite child! I recently had some Bourbon Barrel Stout from Bluegrass Brewing (Louisville) that was most excellent. You can never go wrong with Yazoo Pale Ale or Yazoo Dos Perros (Nashville). Sometimes I crave Leffe Blonde. While visiting Vancouver this past year, I stopped by Granville Island Brewery and had the absolute best (Robson Street) Hefeweizen I've ever tasted, and I've had lots of Hefeweizens in/from Germany. Sam Adams Octoberfest will be petering out now, but Winter Lager is coming!

Everyday liquor: Jack Daniel's black label or George Dickel white label.
Favorite liquor: Good God man. That's like asking me to name my favorite child! I've been on a bourbon tear lately though, and it's hard to top the fine products with Van Winkle on the label. They're not cheap, but to me the fifteen-year gets you the best bang for the buck.

Are non-Beckerheads that do own a Becker allowed to speak up?

If so...

Favourite harder stuff:

-Tallisker 10
-Cragganmore 12

Fav beers:

-Lager: Stella Artois or Primus served cold with the yeast still in it (you can only drink that in the Brewery itself, because the beer perishes after two days with the yeast still in it)
-'Heavier' beers: Delirium, Westmalle Trappist, Duvel, Sint-Bernardus Abt 12
 
I'm not much of a beer drinker. Pendleton whiskey is alright for what I can afford as is El Jimador tequila.

I rarely rarely drink but when I do it's usually with a group of friends while playing video games and I get pretty sloshed.
 
Oh man Beer, it's really not that simple for me. I honestly try a new beer every trip to the liquor store. I always grab a couple new brews and an old standby. I really like almost anything by the Boston Beer Co.(Sam Adams), Founders' Breakfast stout, too many really. Liquor, I'm a bourbon fan. Wild Turkey Rare Breed is great when I want a treat. Buffalo Trace or Maker's Mark are excellent too. Then for plain old Whiskey, Jack D is exceptional.

Sounds good to me! and no BevMo in my area, must be a cali thing!
 
Homebrewed mead wins for me every time.

obligatory Becker content, using my BK2 to cut through the reishi mushrooms I used as a bittering agent in this brew:

I write obsessively about homebrew meadmaking, follow the link in my sig if you want to see/read more. :-)
 
I'm a big Jim B fan red stag wild cherry and devils cut. As far as beers go I like to try something new all the time, I defiantly don't coors like gusty does. that nut brown from the gathering was really good.
 
Liquors- Makers Mark Bourbon, Jack Daniels, Woodford Reserve

Beers- PBR, Miller Lite, Yuengling.

The better beers- I love stouts! Brooklyn black chocolate, Brooklyn black ops, Yeti, Old Rasputin, etc
 
Jwl, seems like theres alot to that mead. special equipment, work and time. Doubt id ever do that myself. really i never heard of mead. sounds interesting! A blackberry mead would probably be delightful.

from what i gather its honey wine? i dont drink wine often but i enjoy it with a meal here and there. ill have to see if i can find somewhere that sells it by the glass to test it.

When i was about 14 i had a girlfriend whos father made homemade wine. she stayed my girlfriend long overdue just because of that, lmao.

Moose, BH's whiskey is good for sure. and you got it good. your high end whiskey cost about the same as your jack from what i remember. hell enigma blanche cost me bout 100 a bottle mostly due to shipping/importing charges. i can only get a bottle a year at most or my wife complains lol.

Dangit Moose, were we seperated at birth or something?
What Moose said for me.
Edit: Guiness Draught does it for me too.
