Single malt scotch. At least 12 years old, preferably 15. If I'm drinking beer, Heineken at the bar and Carlsberg or Shiner Blond at home.

For the first time tried a Drambuie and Ginger Ale tonight... Thought it was disgusting. A television commercial told me to try it.

Not into cocktails. Wines ok.

Too freaking bad they don't import them into BC now

A gin and tonic for me. Or whatever interesting beer on tap, while waiting two hours for a table last night we had a couple different beers from the North Coast Brewery.

This.

And this: Macallan Cask Strength. Favorite single malt ever, but no bars carry it.

Not a big fan of mixed drinks. Most are basically foofy ways of masking the taste of alcohol.

I stopped liking rum and Cokes (or anything and Coke) about 10 minutes after I left high school.

Drink of choice: Jameson, straight up.
Beer: Miller Light (its cheap) or Smithwick's
Shot: Jameson (I'm part of the Jameson Master's Club)
Cocktail: no clear winner here... I'm liking Jameson + Ginger or Cape Cods.


My buddy and I have this game where we ask random strangers at the bar to pick a number, say 1 thru 40, and then ask the bartender to count up to that number and stopping at a corresponding bottle of booze. Then a shot is poured from whatever bottle it lands on. Can get pretty brutal, as there is no backing out.

Snakebite: Guiness Draft and Magners/Strongbow. Guiness needs to be at a slightly higher temp so it floats on the cider

tastes great

That is not a snakebite. Snakebite is half premium lager (premium must be 5.0% ABV) and half premium cider. A shot of blackcurrant is optional and known as a snakebite & black.
