Fer me twould be a selection..depending on the time of day ;)

Probably start of with a beer, im liking Sol at the moment. Then a few glasses (ok ok most probably a bottle) of Shiraz, followed up by a few shots, either Sambuca or Vodka. If im feeling decadent ill go fer a neat whiskey perhaps.

I have to say Guinness , it goes well together . However it is so freaking hot lately Labatts Blue is my favorite , as long as it is in a frosty mug..........

Lately I've been digging Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA.  Great stuff.

Usually though, I just throw back a few Bud Lights.

Mmmm dogfish head.  Lately I've been on a red stripe kick.

I never liked Red Stripe - then I went to Jamaica, and drank it non stop for a week.  Now I love it.  :D

I'm a homebrewer so that's my drink, and the other website I'm on too much!

beeradvocate.com 

I guess this is my intro too...

ahhh.... where was I....?

O! yeah... drink of choice.  Currently Wiser's Canadian, over ice.  I like to make my own ice and throw out the cloudy stuff.  Got to have clear 'cubes'  Aesthetics and all.  Anyway, I'm a former homebrewer, but really prefer whiskey.

Scots whisky, American bourbon, but right now it's Wiser's Canadian Deluxe.

 

My rant:  light beer.  Ptooeey!  Bozo's that fell for inferior, tasteless, cheap beer... moron victims of megacorp.  You want nonfilling alcohol?  It's been around for centuries.  It's called WHISKY, or whiskey if you prefer.

 

Plus, it's compact.  MUCH easier to sneak drinks... uhh... unless your girfriend hears you cracking your clear ice with your pick.  May have to switch to store bought ice... or switch girlfriends

An excellent group!  And I thought I was the only one...

 

Favorties depend on the time of year for me.

1. Winter - Scotch or whisky neat.  If I'm not in that mood, I go for a Godfather (2 parts blended whisky to 1 part Amaretto) or a seasonal dark winter beer.
2. Fall - Autumn means one thing and one thing only for me:  German style beers.  Usually a Maertzen or Koelsch.
3. Spring/Summer - There is nothing better than a good G&T or Gimlet when the weather is hot.  Other choices are a Caipirinha or Mojito.

Just this past weekend I was trading losses with a friend over Scotch

honestly, I'd have to say what I usually drink while I play is pabst!! usually I'll throw in the ol' dogfish head or great lakes. I'm actually purchasing some nice brewing equipment this month for an IPA so that'll be my drink of choice soon!

I recently discovered Dogfish Head.  I absolutely love IPA and this is one of my favorites.  I really like Goose Islands IPA as well.  My weekday beer is usually a cheap crap beer since I work and can't really enjoy it, maybe Miller Low Life or something.  On weekends I tend to splurge a little and will go with either the G.I. IPA or Newcastle.

If it's a liquor, I like to sip on some brandy on the rocks.  Korbel usually.  Remy Martin if I'm serious about it. 

anything. hit me. chess is best blurry...

hah hah, miller low life

i drink what ever is there, i like stronger beers cause more bang per space in the fridge.  Currently I have tons of left over whine so I'm getting sophisticated about my boozin

When I drank wine I really liked Sangria.  Yet, I couldn't help but feel like a wuss since, if I'm not mistaken, Sangria is the butthole of the wine community.  It's like wine with training wheels.  It tastes good though.

Am i honestly the first one to say vodka?

 

VODKA.

with ice.

maybe a little dry lemonade if it's still early.

 

But if it's still early i'm actually probably on beer, in which case it's a pale ale usually, i'm not fussy, but i do prefer dark beers over lagers and i like novel flavours that make some people look at you strange.

right now it"s IPAs, I usually check out the chess site at the end of the day.  But brandy or scotch works too.

What's your favorite IPA?  I posted it earlier but I really like Dogfish Head and Goose Island IPA's.  There's this brewery in Omaha, NE called Upstream and they make a Double IPA that's incredible. It has 9 different varities of hops and that wonderful dry flavorful taste.  I miss that one.

I just brought home a 6 pack of Blue Moon's seasonal amber ale and a tall can of the most ghetto looking malt beverage in the cooler.  It's called JOOSE.  Cheers! 

Right now I'm enjoying a Brooklyn Brown Ale just after work, earlier I had my friend and co-worker Josh's (see: The_Pitts) Black Ale.  Usually I have a tasty beer, lately: Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA; sometimes a whiskey (whisky): Laphroig 10 year, or Lagavulin 16 year; and sometimes in the summer: a "TnT" (Tanqueray and Tonic) or Mojito...

I haven't met the beer that there wasn't something to like about it. Guinness is my love but since I have retired and have the time I am brewing. So far I have made and drank - Pale Ale, European Lager, Cooper's Stout, Irish Stout(Like a sweet stout..very nice), Dark Ale, Bitter, Draught Ale, Real Ale, Cream Ale.  

I usually make more stout than others but now in the hot Aussie summer I am sticking to Pale Ale and Bitter. Cold, crisp and refreshing.

Today(Boxing Day) I am puting a phot of me and my little operation on my home site. Take a look.

cheers
