Dont get me started on proper ale. Jaipur is the king, but is turbo charged. Vocation Life and Death is not far behind. Oakham Ales Citra is the perfect session beer, but add their Green Devil in for a proper hit. St Austell Proper Job if you can get from the barrel is majestic. Infinity by Blue Monkey. Tiny rebel make some amazing fruity beers as well. Honestly, just so many mahnificent ales kicking around...

AnCnoc is my whisky of choice, but really any speyside and I am happy enough.

Always keep a bottle of crown royal on the go as well, which is a bit of an oddity.

Always have a bottle of AnCnoc 18 open, cracking whisky and still reasonably priced. Ditto the 24.

White wine: Pinot Grigio or Sauvignan Blanc (although most of them that are clean, crisp and ice cold will do)
Rum: Havana 7, Kraken or Morgans spiced
Lagers: Asahi, Perroni, Morretti.

However I am very flexible when required.

Any premium lager is what I mainly drink. Kronenbourg is currently in fridge. I will only drink pint cans or 660ml bottles but prefer cans as bottles make too much noise when putting them in recycle bin haha.
I also like Jim Beam with coke (bottle of dark cherry currently)
The only drinks I don't like are real ales and whiskey. Yuk!

I am currently on a self imposed alcohol ban so shouldnt really get involved in this thread but I cant resist.
Started off drinking half n half when I 1st started drinking mainly because my grandad drank it. After a few years I realised it was actually manky and progressed to Stones which for some reason gets me paralytic drunk so after several years of rolling about the pubs and clubs of Washington I decided for some stupid reason to start drinking LCL Lager. Now this was where the big problems began because this stuff can put a Rhino to bed so after realising that I was out of my depth I decided to mix the LCL with cider and started my hazy snakebite days, what a mistake that was !! It made me drunk extremely quickly, aggressive and without a shag because of said issues for a good few months. This was when I spotted this extremely attractive lady who eventually became Mrs LBW so I thought I would get myself in order and introduced myself to Guiness. Another mistake as it causes me to empty my entire bowels with very little warning so I quickly went back onto the LCL but in moderation. Acquired myself my beautiful wife and some common sense then scaled the drinking right back to almost the beginning and settled on Stones. I stayed with the Stones until the selfish Brewery took it out a few years back and then took up my Boddingtons hobby, I have been enjoying the Boddingtons a little too much lately so thought I would jump on the wagon until the wife agrees that its Ok for me to resume my hobby.
In the house I share various wines with the wife and have been known to take a shine to Jamshed Red and a bit of Chablis. I have never drank spirits as I think I have enough alcohol vices to start with....
I am dying for a pint of Boddingtons now !!

Anything starting with Glen, is perfect for me. Or JD neat, or with a splash of coke....Even the JD Apple, or Honey is a treat.

Lambs Rum neat, or with coke is my Christmas drink......I'll have to try your suggested blackcurrent mix.

Cannot abide the smell of taste of Whisky. Got absolutely bladdered on my mate's 18th birthday after downing about 7 or 8 Glenfiddichs. Was ill for about a week and haven't been able to stand the stuff since

Ha ha ha....yeah I get ya mate...When I first started to drink, my beer was either Trophy or a bottles of Newcastle Brown Ale...

I loved the taste for about 3 years....However, after been out on a proper bender with blokes who were way older than me, I tried to keep up with them...Epic fail. I threw my ring up all night from about 7pm. I was sent home.

The next day in the local pub, I ordered a bottle of Newcy Brown...took one sup, and spewed up again. Now I can't stantd the smell or taste of the stuff...

So basically mate anything with a gravity content<laugh>. Well done losing the weight. I need to but fk it. I like my food & drink and I have to die somehow. Alcoholism or obesity is one of many ways.

A few years ago (not that many) on Boxing Day we went to Mrs. A's sister's as is traditional (we took turns with who hosted) and I drank about 7/8ths of a bottle of Glenfiddich (I've got no idea why I didn't drink it all, but I was probably a bit tipsy), went home (she was driving) giggling and fighting in the back seat with my boy then continued when we got home.
Mrs. A. took a 5 minute video at home, where I was doing likewise on the floor and it was brilliant with him taking the micky out of me. The next day it was as if I'd never had a drink . . . . no headache or poorlyness whatsoever. Oh, I'd been to the match beforehand and had 4 pints :emoticon-0167-beer: too.

I wouldn't be capable now, but I was amazed :angel:
