Homebrew! Porter, stout, belgians, english browns . . . and an occasional 14% ABV apple cider . . .
If you like fat tire but want something a little lighter bodied, try the same brewery's (New Belgium's) 1554. It's darker in color but lighter bodied, a great summer beer.

I am too young to drink, but even when I turn 21 I probably would not have anything but an occasional wine :dunno:
Right now though, my favorite drink is an orange pineapple juice... Please note that pineapple orange juice is completly different though, and IMO does not taste as good... Oh yea, I also really enjoy a good IBC cream soda, although I have cut down on my soda intake...

Cream soda is good too, great to make that or root beer in the beer kegs. Always have one of those on tap as well!

Homebrew is great if you know what you are doing. I have tried a few times and had different results. They were either way too strong or to weak. :eek:
My dad was good at making wine. :)

Sweet tea...I've determined that, since God has granted me unmerited favor by not allowing me to drink myself into eternity in the 70s with such fine, upstanding beverages as Boone's Farm, Mad Dog 20/20 and T.J. Swan, I would show my appreciation by never touching or endorsing anything other than sweet tea until He should call me home in His time.:thumbsup:

Definitely my favorite beverage, and a really good 'get up and have a drink' beer for those crazy weekends! ;)

:eek:
whisky, wine, any real ales, cider - well anything really except gin!
Favourites:
Whiskey --> Talisker
Wine --> Rioja or if I'm not too fussy anythin red (Zinfandel, shiraz, malbec etc etc)
Real Ales --> too many to name but Bishops Finger gets the nod
Cider --> Strongbow or Scrumpy Jack both get the nod even though they are commercial ciders - Samuel Smiths do a good organic one though.

Anything British from the tap in a pint glass.
I haven't visited the Isles since we had kids.
I find an occasional Newcastle Brown, now I'm reminiscing with a Smithwick's.
I will have to remember the Bishop's Finger.

I haven’t had any alcohol in 28 months I think might be 29 now. I mostly drink water, fruit juice and 2 diet DP every day. I try for 2 gallons of water a day in the winter and 2.5 gallons of water in the summer. I do work in manufacturing and it’s about 90* in the winter and about 110 / 125* in the winter.

Didn't the late Dale Earnhardt drive an old race car sponsored by Sundrop?:cool:
Not to many things I didn't drink back when I drunk.:D
Now you would get arrested for it but,
What I liked was having a big party on the beach.
Plenty of good looking bikinis, Pits for the barbecue, coolers of beer and during then day we drank Long Island Iced Tea. If you survived them to the night you moved on to beer which were ice cold by then.
If you survived the Iced teas!
Anyone who's ever drank too many of them on a hot day knows what I'm talking about. I found out, LOL, but to date I love them.
Now my poison is Diet coke.
I guess I'm a sociable drinker now.
Around the holidays I drink what ever being served I'm not fussy.
The only thing I won't drink straight is the liquors they give me heartburn.
Southern Comfort gives me heartburn too. I used to drink a pint like you would drink water on a hot day. gulp gulp gone.
I don't know how I used to chug a lug some of the stuff I used to drink.:D
I don't miss the hangovers too!

Yep, Dale was a devout Sundrop drinker. Sundrop comes from a little town next to my little town, lol. Granite Falls, NC was made in 1949. Best citrus soda ever made IMHO.

I miss watching him race!
Somewhere in my Dale collection I have the Sundrop sponsored car. (or something)
I will have to look.
I used to run the south with an 18 wheeler all the time.
With the flatbed and drop deck.
I delivered to scenic RR's all over the south.We picked up too, specializing in the old gauge RR stuff.
We would buy it, fix it ,then resell it. picked up all kinds of stuff.
Over sized RR machines with the drop deck.
We occasionally got an engine delivered and we would repaint and repair them too.
Hauled cars down south too.
Delivered tank loads there too.
Now I'm mainly driving the north East in a Haz-mat tanker.:D

hmmmm....don't think we have Sundrop in Missouri. I usually like citrus sodas. Outside of the aforementioned PBR, I have a serious coffee habit. If I'm not paying attention, I'll drink coffee all day long. I've tried to cut back though, because as I get older I find I need to get more sleep.

Since I've all but given up drinking alcohol, coffee is my main poison. Not that I won't drink a Silver Bullet from time to time. Somethin' about fishin' makes beer taste good, maybe the worms.
I'm also a lover of fine bourbon. Good for those "hot totties" during cold season. Add some lemon juice, a little honey, warm it up on the stove, great old time "fixer upper". Sure do hope I catch a lot of colds this winter.

I'm a multi-tasker. Dry wine, a good stout or porter, and bourbon. My family is Welsh/Irish, so bourbon is the medication of choice for all real and imagined illnesses.
