I’m a Scotch man. I like Aberfeldy 18, Balvenie single cask, and Kilchoman for my top 3.
I also love a Dubonnet Manhattan or a hazy IPA. Red over white wine, IMO

Personally I’m a big fan of Blue Moon, Sake and Rum.
Definitely like a blue moon. Real light and good flavor. Damn I kind of want one now.
I like bourbon, but I’m also cheap. Four Roses is my brand of choice!
I’m also a bourbon enjoyer. I like Elijah Craig a lot!
Four roses is pretty solid IMO.
I have alot of good local breweries nearby. I love Me a New England IPA or a Juicy/Hazy IPA basically.
For the hard stuff? A Vodka and Juice is my usual go to
If you’ve got a nice collection of scotch, get a bottle of Drambuie (also technically scotch) to make the classic “Rusty Nail.” You’ll upset the scotch purists but delight your pallet
Recently I’ve been all about the “Boulevardier.” It’s an adaptation of a Negroni. My preferred blend: Campari, Carpano Antiqua sweet vermouth, Rebel Bourbon and a splash of club soda over ice. A couple cherries or an orange twist if I’m feeling fancy.
Another great variation is to add a splash of aperol! (About 1/4/ to 1/3 oz). It mellows the bitterness of the compari just the perfect amount in my opinion.
That sounds delicious I gotta try it
I am a simple man. Gin and tonic for me!
My heart lies with Islay Scotches, Belgian Sours and South American Malbecs.
Much like The Dude, White Russians are my jam
Beer as bitter as I am.
Cabernet Sauvignon.
I live in Colorado, where we have SUCH good local beer. Crystal Springs is a favorite.
I’m not very sophisticated, so I generally go for a beer. I like Modelo, Corona, Blue Moon, or Spotted Cow (WI Regional). Some of the Leinkugel’s seasonals are pretty good, for a while I was obsessed with their Snowdrift Vanilla Porter. Our local brewery/restaurant makes a milk stout that I get pretty much anytime we eat there.
Nothing like a good Old-Fashioned. One of the secrets is to singe the orange peel after it’s expressed over the glass before dropping in as a garnish and stirring - it adds a lovely smoky note to the drink.
Oooo, this sounds fantastic, I’m an old-fashioned fan myself. I’ll have to try this next time I make one. Thanks for the suggestion! 🍁
For sure, cheers!
I normally reach for a beer (Tuborg Gold), but if I’m mixing a drink, I love a properly made whisky sour!
Winter: Hot toddy with Scotch.
Non-winter: Flavored vodka and Mio. In the summer, I’ll mix that with ice and blend into a slushie.
I enjoy scotch, but I also don’t drink very often so I don’t get expensive stuff. I have a bottle of Glenfiddich 15 that’s good.
