Not a liquor guy, so a cold Newcastle or Heineken work for me. With fall rolling around, Sam Adams Octoberfest will be out, so that will be my choice for the fall.

I actually created a drink when I was in college. It's called an "Arctic Screwdriver", and it's basically an orange Julius with vodka. I guess in Knoxville I could have called it "Power Tea"

Ha! A friend's restaurant does karaoke night. I did not participate or listen.

Not according to Wes. He said you were out singing your swan song.

Don't fall asleep, but it's water, tea or an occasional Coke for me. I drank a little liquor in my younger days but I gave it up. Got tired of getting my a$$ whooped.

My wife calls it southern sweet tea but I grew up in the South and never found it necessary to use any adjectives to describe tea.

Vodka tonic with 2 limes or a cold beer or a number of different white wines with dinner.
During the winter:
Red wine with a steak or red sauce/pasta or even pizza.............or a beer.

Fill 3/4 of a shot glass full of Patron XO (Coffee flavored) and add 1/4 of Baileys on top. Kinda sweet, but big kick on the back end... Great shot

Ouch, a downvote for that? Not a jab just didn't turn out like I meant it. Just trying to say if you live in the South, sweet tea is tea.

Thanks Man. I love Dickel. Have no idea why it isn't more popular. When I lived in Louisville a lot of the bourbon snobs I knew wouldn't touch Jack but when I could convince them to try #12 they'd almost always admit it was good stuff.

I can't drink Dickel anymore, or stomach Jack or Gentleman Jack cause there were way to many wild and crazy nights!
I enjoy when I'm cheap bud light, when I want to spend some money it will be blue moon or shock top.
My whiskeys would be crown and sprite (best drink ever) and when I go skiing and need to warm up shots of southern comfort and lime.

I definitely do not drink the Dickel like I used to. On a typical summer day I'm drinking Miller Lite and if I get crazy I drink Boulevard Wheat which is brewed here in KC. If I still lived in God's country I'd be drinking Yuengling. I usually bring home a loaded trunk of it when I get back to the mother land.

Unfortunately my favorite beer (Fat Tire) isn't available in Alaska, so I usually go with either Killian's Red, Guinness, or Alaskan Amber.

Try Wild Turkey, Kentucky Spirit, Single barrel bourbon. Lay it gently on the rocks and sip yourself into a stupor. Yep, it is made in KY, but there's some premium whiskey. VFL

As far as beer goes I'll drink about anything. I love trying new brews.
As far as liquor I drink Vodka and mix it with whatever I have in the fridge. Last night it was cranberry juice and sierra mist.
I also like gentleman Jack
My favorite is long island iced tea
A few of my buddies never grew out of the Jagermeister phase so when they're around i'll drink some too.
