Alcohol wise !
I'm a real ale person myself and will try most ales. We have a locally brewed ale.....i can see the brewery from my back garden, called Harveys and it is the best ale i've ever tasted.
Love a pint of cold guinness or Murphys too and the occasional bottle of premium lager goes down well.
I hate all spirits and wines though although i adore Pimms and baileys.
And you ?

I thought it was Susie's round !!
I like proper beer - real ale/bitter. I also like Guinness, red wine, whisky & bourbon (especially Jack Daniels) but not all in the same glass, obviously !!

A nice cold stella or pils or a draught guinness.
A bacardi and coke. Wine wise, Jacobs Creek and a Cabernet Sauvignon are favourites [any one!].
Oh, and a Baileys and Cointreau with a little ice in a big tumbler. Very morish, especially at this time of year. ;D
And I don't drink much. Honest!

Red or white wine, I adore real german bier, preferably in Germany ..., cider, but not cloudy (not stupid me ...), port, not keen on spirits, but really enjoy a tequila sunrise, we drink plenty at Christmas, in fact I have one large one with my morning kitchen preparation of dinner ...  |

Nice glass of red wine, don't drink that often though.
My fave when on holiday after a meal is Armaguinaha, it's a local almond liqueur served with ice and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, goes down very nicely. The ice and lemon take off the sickly taste.

I LOVE cider as it's one of the few drinks that doesn't upset my fragile lungs. After years of experimentation I have discovered that I can also drink Ruby Port, Pineau Charentes and Baileys. So I do.........
Still can't drink much red wine though especially wine made with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. OH is pleased about that!
And the Pimms punch at CPB's party didn't affect me either. Which was nice......

Mine changes regularly. At the moment it's scotch and gingerale which took over from the gold rum and diet cherry coke!
I like a very dry white wine and have gone right off red which again was a one time favourite.

Yes my Pimms Punch was OK...
My favourite has to be a nice single malt whisky...Royal Salute is to die for but is just tooooo expensive (only drunk it once!) My other 2 favourites are Craggenmore and Edradour...oh and Dalwinie...and Glenlivet is nice...
I like cocktails too...OH and I decided to have a cocktail evening on NYE...started off following the recipes but ended up just making them up! at one point I made one with scum on the top! 'Effluent Special'..ew....drank it tho.
I like cold lager and warm beer (Abbot Ale)...cider in the summer,
brandy (especially 'Bardinet') and of course...champagne

I like real ale and real cider (the cloudy stuff so I must be stupid). I also like a good malt and the occasional brandy or rum. Do like red wine but has got to have plenty of body and I like a good dry white.

G&T please. Or a single malt (Glenkinchie perhaps)
If I'm thirsty a glass of real ale goes down well. Or Guiness

Oooh, Plocket you've never lived chuck. It's wonderful stuff. Gorilla Snot ? Like the sound of that eh, LL ? My favourite cocktail is Kahlua, Baileys & Southern Comfort - a B52. You pour the kahlua in first, then pour the Baileys down the side of the glass tipped at an agle so it sits in a layer on top of the kahlua, then do the same with the Southern Comfort which then sits on top of the Baileys. You do it in a shot glass and down the lot in 1 !!! Black Russian is also good, especially if you put a drop of Guinness in it with the vodka, Tia Maria & coke !  FA x |
