Bourbon

I usually go for scotch, but I gave bourbon a go, bottle of Knob Creek, nice.  You got a favorite bourbon?  Make a suggestion.  Hell, if you've got a favorite scotch or other whiskey, or hell, anything else, let's hear it.

...keeping in mind, this is a moronblog, so Val-U-Rite is a given.

1 Bourbon: Makers Mark
If none of that is around, I go for Uncle Jack in the Tennessee Sour Mash division.
Martini? Bombay Sapphire with three olives (Wiser & Rosetta saw Wifey & me knock a few back).

Beer? yes

4 When I've got some money to drop, I go for Red Breast.  Fabulous sipping whiskey.  Tastes ... buttery.  Love it.

7 before I gave up booze 11 yrs ago, I was more of a rum or brandy guy, with the occasional tequila shooter. vodka was more for soaking fruit in, and beer was meh. oh, and wine was for cooking with =D

8 Wild Turkey, but I haven't had it in 30 years.

9 Knob Creek is excellent but my favorite at the moment is Russell's Reserve. And I love my bourbon with a dash of vanilla-weird huh?

10 If you want the BEST try BOOKERS it will melt your soul and brain,Woodford reserve is a good one also

11 Knob Creek is definitely my go-to bourbon.  Wild Turkey works too.  I've been meaning to try Booker's, but I rarely go to bars any more and haven't been willing to shell out the money for a whole bottle.

Bourbon vs. Scotch -- Mostly a price/quality issue for me.  A really outstanding scotch beats all.  But for what you'd pay for a bottle of perfectly enjoyable Knob Creek you'd get a barely palatable scotch.

Gin - between Bombay Sapphire and Tanqueray I'm pretty indifferent.  I don't get why people are so divided between the two.  Gordon's or maybe even Seagram's in a pinch.

Vodka - "Not Smirnoff". That stuff gives me the worst headaches.  I don't drink so much vodka any more, but Stoli or Skyy stick in my mind.

...and wine was for cooking with ....

Ahhh ...I find I rather disagree with that (well, unless you left out the word "also" between "was" and "for").

...neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure. Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.

See? Wine is biblical. God-approved. Mandated even. The Big Guy himself so approved of wine, he even turned water into wine a time or two.

13 Main Course:  Old Style Beer.

Sidecar:  Jagermeister.

Hey botnet, have you tried Bourbon of Scotch?  Why, yes, botnet.  The botnet has tried, and gets too fucked up.  Stay away from the evil spirits, botnet, they'll scramble your brains.

 For Scotch:

 Glenlivet or Glenfiddich.

But the Irish do it better:

Bushmill's 10 or 12 yr old or Black Bush.

As far as Gin goes, the English do not make gin, the Dutch do.The English make kerosene. Try a Jonge Genever. Bols is the easiest to get.

15 Crown and Hennessy are my favorites.
Hennessy and Bailey's is a great drink, too bad it's like 30$/glass (Hennessy ain't cheap)
I've lately decided to try single malt scotches. I have some Glenfiddich, I'll let you know.

The problem is that I mostly just drink for Giants football, and that's over in the most painful way possible.

For sparkling wine, I like prosecco or Brut, I like fruity but not sweet wines (Italian mostly, hence the prosecco).

Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey.  Not cheap, but if you have it available in your state, which you likely do by now, make sure to give it a try. 

American made, privately owned, micro-distilled deliciousness that should be supported with our dollars rather than the huge conglomerates.
