Both, if I had to choose it would be Crown and Coke.

Really depends on the mood. While I have been on a bit of a scotch kick lately I do like the winter beers that are out right now.

Oh GAWD the Smell!

Depends on the where why how etc.

I prefer a good Irish amber with a burger, I like Chimay with steak...But I also enjoy good whiskey, and I'm a bit too much of a fan of Captain Morgan's lol.

Usually a big fan of beer, but lately the drink of choice has been Four Roses Single Barrel. Amazing bourbon.

Three fingers of Crown in a clean glass, then leave me be.
I know where to find you if I need you.

I'm a Rum and Coke guy.

But I also enjoy a good F5, Heineken, or Blvd Tank 7.

I'm a beer person, though lately have been more partial to wine since I am trying to go healthier. My favorite beers that you can get in Oklahoma are König Ludwig Weiss, Leffe, and Hoegaarden. If I have to drink 3.2, I usually go with Mustang Session 33. That one actually tastes pretty decent and doesn't have the watered down aftertaste of most 3.2 beer.

As some of the others stated it depends on the food, the weather, the activity, etc. Crown and water for me or a Sam Adams.

I enjoy scotch but gave it up quite a few years ago because I couldn't handle it. I have spent about ten months in England and love the cask ale, the beer that is pumped into the glass and is about 55 degrees. I have some favorites but I enjoyed all of them. I believe I have had over 100 different beers since I make it a point to try local brews in England, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, and Ireland (North and South).

Definitely a beer guy, just can't do liquor anymore. Give me a good wheat beer and I'll be good for the night.

Run and coke? Sound too much like the 60's for me.

Oh good grief. I think I saw you at La Baguette sticking a thermometer
in your drink!

Not La Baguette, but guilty as charged. My wife's purse is handy to carry items for a better dining experience. Digital thermometers are handy as for exterior temps and they make miniature thermometers for fish, chicken and steak.

I've recently become a big fan of Hendrick's Gin for martinis and tonics. But on a cold night, nothing is better than sipping on a Manhattan made with a really good bourbon. As far as beer goes, I do like all of the Blue Moon varieties.

Definitely beer. Haven't had a mixed drink in years. A shot of Fireball every now and then can be good.

Why mix anything with good bourbon? Such a waste....

"Dolce Far Niente" roughly translates "Sweetness in Nothing"

Ice cold beer in a bottle,.. I don't like canned beer. Don't really have a single favorite. And rum... 151.

Long Island Iced Tea....my favorite!

I also drink wine frequently.....because it's so good for my health!:D

Had some excellent Belgian beers last night. Gulden Draak, highly recommend them. It doesn't take many as they are around 10%.

Just got this last night as a dirty santa gift. Thought it was funny but probably wouldn't be any good. Now I'm looking forward to drinking it! Never been a fan of liquor drinks. Always love to try new beer. Caldera IPA is my go to beer right now.

My beer is boring and generic. Mostly Bud Light or if I get tired of that I'll switch to Coors Light. If I'm feeling like getting my money's worth, it's Mustang Wheat and lately, I've been sipping the Cabernet.

Cool, let us know what you think of it.

I actually think it's just the old Mustang Pawnee Pale Ale rebranded (which I don't think they put out anymore)

If I'm feeling like getting my money's worth, it's Mustang Wheat and lately, I've been sipping the Cabernet.Me too. I used drink nothing but Coors Light. Then I went through a phase of trying every beer I could. I would go out and have six and all would be different. I'm back to Coors Light. I do add limes though. I guess I'm a beer connoisseur wanna-be.

Sam Adams - especially Winter Lager. Guinness also. Not wild about the lighter brews.

"Dolce Far Niente" roughly translates "Sweetness in Nothing"I can see the beauty there. I'm a pipe smoker myself though.

I have to say the same about beer.. But I like Bud Ice.

I was actually a little disappointed with the Winter Lager, I like most of of the Sam Adams winter seasonals.

Depends on mood and weather. On the beach...nothing beats an ice cold Carib (beer) but in cooler climates, a good scotch. After a nice dinner, maybe a Baileys on the rocks. I tried the new Balvenie Peat Cask last night....not worth the money. Not much of a peat taste and their double wood is much better at half the price. If you want a good peaty scotch...Lagavulin. Lately, been drinking a lot of Strongbow Cider as well as Peronis.

Do you have whiskey stones? I'd recommend them if not.

Kudos on the Knob. It's a great whiskey.

Exact same for me. I like Guinness in the winter and just about everything Sam Adams makes is pretty good.

I tried it too and it's not bad!

I love IPA's and COOP F5 is my favorite. If I'm in a state with up to date liquor laws I also enjoy Lagunitas IPA.

If I, Beered out I enjoy a Vodka Tonic in the summer or Crown and diet coke or Capt' Morgans and diet coke as well.
