A nice warm pint glass of ale!

You guys can make it, you just don't know how to drink it.

Err... from a glass into your mouth?

Bawls is also one that seems to be popular among gamers but I think Mountain Dew is just a gamers drink.

Bawls tastes like what would happen if Sprite got into the energy drink business.

Well, being Norwegian, there is little to choose from except maybe Mead. (Yeah, maybe the Chinese invented it, but we were it's main consumers!)

Anyhow, for medieval and modern time it has got to be Aquavit:

Wikipedia:

In Norway it is particularly drunk at celebrations, such as Christmas or May 17 (Norwegian Constitution Day). In Sweden it is a staple of the traditional midsummer celebrations dinner, usually drunk while singing one of many drinking songs. It is usually drunk as snaps during meals, especially during the appetizer course? along with pickled herring, crayfish, lutefisk or smoked fish. In this regard it is popularly quipped that akvavit helps the fish swim down to the stomach. It is also a regular on the traditional Norwegian Christmas meals, including roasted rib of pork and stickmeat (pinnekjøtt). It is said that the spices and the alcohol helps digest the meal which is very rich in fat.

Among the most important brands are Løiten, Lysholm and Gilde from Norway

(...)

Particular to the Norwegian tradition are linje akvavits (such as "Løiten Linje" and "Lysholm Linje"). These have been carried in oak casks onboard ships crossing the equator (linje) twice before being sold. While many experts claim that this tradition is little more than a gimmick, some argue that the moving seas and frequent temperature changes cause the spirit to extract more flavour from the casks. Norwegian akvavit distillers Arcus has carried out a test where they tried to emulate the rocking of the casks aboard the "Linje" ships while the casks were subjected to the weather elements as they would aboard a ship. The finished product was according to Arcus far from the taste that a proper "Linje" akvavit should have, thus the tradition of shipping the akvavit casks past the "Linje" and back continues.

I was going to go with this but as a (somewhat) purebred Trønder, I have to say Karsk. That's strong black coffee with a generous helping of 96% Moonshine. It tastes like something died in your soul, and I hate it. But you gotta suport local "business" and whatnot.

Tea!

If not, nothing beats Black Sheep Ale.

Cold. In a frosted glass. I hate beer and even I know that.

Ok guys, time for some liquid based fun!
[sub]...that sounds wrong...[/sub]

What would you say is your national beverage? The drink the majority of people within your country love. Whether it be beer (something specific please), coffee, Coca Cola etc.

I'm British, so I would disappoint all our American friends if I failed to say...

And yes, the biscuit is mandatory.

Hmmm... really? I always though a good hearty pint is a better represntative of todays Britain.

[teh_Canape]

[Phantom_IEC]

I'm from Finland.. so Long Drink. We call it lonkero, which literally translates to tentacle. It's a mixture of grape soda and gin, although nowadays almost every type of soda is used.

The official name is in English, and so is the label, because it was created and marketed for foreigners who came to watch the 1952 Olympics, held in Finland. Because of it's English name, a lot of Finns probably don't even realize that it's a Finnish drink.

Not especially good, although excellent for hangovers.
