Beer or Cocktail.

Which do you prefer? I’m guessing it’s gonna be an avalanche for brewski. As a smaller fellow beer has always been too filling.

My favs are either a martini, mojito, or something mixed with fresh fruit.

 

One more category? wine? I have come to the conclusion that I am done drinking wine. I love dark or fruity beer. I do feel there is a world of cocktails (my vote) out there just waiting to be mixed. I wish I had one of those basement bars with all the fixins. I do like to order a whiskey sour when i go out. I don't like something too fruity in a cocktail.
I also don't drink as much as I use too, honestly I don't want the hangover. (cure for that...3 aspirin and drink as much water as you drank of alcohol)

 

I’ve never found a go-to cocktail. Also in my younger days the hard stuff put me into the danger zone in a hurry and that wasn’t good for anyone.

 

Beer is overrated.

Scotch on the rocks.

 

Except in social situations where maybe someone is making a round of margaritas, it's always going to be beer if I go out or if someone simply asks what I want and they list options.

For one thing, there are so many types of beers, I often just like seeing what I haven't tried before. Plus hard alcohol hits me weirdly if it isn't cut with something significantly so I tend to shy away from cocktails

 

Speaking of overrated

 

I'm with Playthrough. Too many variables in situations to just pick one. Wine's best with most food, although beer is way better for some meals. When I'm out to eat I'll generally have a cocktail before. Gin and tonic in summer, margarita if it's Mexican food, scotch rocks or every so often, a martini in winter. It is far too hot and humid to drink anything without ice in it here today, so we're mint iced tea for lunch and dinner drinks.

 

Have switched to having light beer/seltzers during the day with a whiskey on the rocks nightcap once I get home. The rocks water down the whiskey, which at that point of most evenings, is a good thing. I'll mix in the occasional tequila shot as well.

 

Yes.

 

Grey Goose and soda, two limes, two lemons.

 

A good 8% IPA with lots of hops is where it's at.
