What does the escapist drink? (alcohol)

[Wilko316]

Captain Morgan's Rum.
The best alcoholic drink ever.

"Do you like wine, beer, or vodka?" That's like asking "Do you prefer aftershave, drain cleaner or turpentine?"

I'm alcohol intolerant.

I drink a bovine fermented plant mix, known in some circles as milk.

Seriously, I can't stand the taste of alcohol.

Do you two mean to sound so condescending and smart-arsed or is that just how you always talk.

Of course, the same could be said for half the people in this thread.

I usually start off with a couple of pints of lager (preferably becks) and then move onto vodka with lemonade.

 

[sharptoast]

Cider if I'm out, but whiskey, if its decent whiskey.

Oh and lots of tequila + salt + lemon + friends = awesome party

 

[Mimssy]

Vodka, rum, and various flavors of schnapps are my poisons of choice. I'll drink a beer if I'm eating super spicy food. I've tried a few beers, but I haven't been a big fan of most.
Gotta say, I'm a sucker for girly mixed drinks.

I don't really drink alcohol, because I don't like the taste of the first few drinks. After a few drinks they start tasting better and better though! So I only drink when going out to party with my regular friends. For a really over the top party I prefer something more... ehm... compact.

I'm a bit of an alkie. I usually keep a bottle of cheap vodka on hand at home for mixing with energy drinks or juice or what have you. I used to drink Joose rather frequently until they took the caffeine out of it. That was just silly. Before that it was sparks.

At the bar I usually get gin and tonic. Sapphire is the best that I have had so far but a bit pricey so I usually go with Tanqueray. I used to do Jack and coke frequently as well but I just can't stomach it like I used to. When I first started drinking I was partial to the Adios but I actually haven't had one in quite some time.

I do not care much for beer and usually only drink darker beers like Guinness, Newcastle, or Sapporo. Black Velvet is fun, its a combination of Guinness and champagne. I've only had it with cheap champagne though, I'm not sure I would put up the cash for a good champagne just to mix it with Guinness. Of course if you have some cheap barely drinkable champagne about it'll probably make it better.

I prefer red wines though champagne isn't bad I suppose. I haven't drank much wine in a while now. I used to be able to drink just about any old cheap ozzie stuff but it tends to give me headaches nowadays.

Cider is great but I don't care for many brands. Hornsbys amber is my favourite. It used to be Hardcore Black but I can't find the Hardcore brand anymore. Wyders is just too expensive for not being all that great. Woodchuck is good but its just too much like straight apple juice. For those of you who do not like the taste of booze but would like to find some you like try out some cider, particularly Woodchuck. And for those of you who like cider try some fruit lambic.

And a bit of "Ciderpunk" from my current favourite band.

 

[PureChaos]

lager usually, sometimes vodka+diet coke (normal coke is too sweet), red wine on the odd occasion or if out for a meal, daiquiris are good

 

[fenderstrat]

wine. mostly red. also cider.

 

[Lokithrsourcerer]

rum - yum yum but it has to be good spiced rum not cheap stuff
good cider on a hot day is nice, something like Kopperburg
a few different cocktails if there made right too

 

[TerribleAssassin]

The European Budwieser, soo nicee

and Jack Daniels, nice and smooth

 

[Fellwarden]

I don't drink spirits. I do, however, enjoy a glass of wine on some occasions. A cold beer is also good while having a barbeque on a hot summer day.

 

[Gigano]

Fine beer, and plenty of it.

Mostly English ales and Belgian Trappist beer.

A bit of wine or rum on occasion as well.

 

[GeorgW]

I like beer. I know, original. And btw, this thread was done later than June last year. We have one of these every month.

 

[Artina89]

I really like Glenlivet, and I am also partial to a Bud light, or a Coors. I will try anything at least once, but I don't consider myself as much of a drinker.

 

[Woodsey]

I always drink Stella at the minute; used to drink Vodka too, but I got so fucked on it at a party last year (and threw up so much) that I don't really fancy going back to it yet.

Still, good times.

 

[Nietz]

I drink beer almost exclusively. I love to try out new beers and there is something extra special with a nice tall, dark and cool beer.
The few times I do drink spirits(which is very rarely, mostly because of the spirit-demon living inside of my brain), I reach for either vodka-lime or a nice straight shot of home-brew.

 

[Tonimata]

I love vodka and rum, but what I can't live without is a fresh, finely made mojito. OH GOD SO GOOOOOOD.
