    PBR is my favorite well known American beer, I can't begin to fathom how many PBRs I've smashed while fishing/etc. My favorite American microbrew is Boulevard's Pale Ale.

    My current favorite Import is Smithwick's Irish Ale.

    I don't mess around with whiskey much, but it'd be a toss up between Scotch and Bourbon.

    As far as beer goes, I drink bud light, natural light, and coors original.
    Throw in some lime and klamoto, and you have a great red beer, good for Sundays and hang overs.

    As far as whiskey goes, I usually stick to bourbon. It doesn't matter what kind, Jack Daniels, old crow, or Jim Beam, they're all good.

    I'll only drink rum when I'm sick and need to sweat a cold or flu out

    I avoid tequila for the most part, that Mexican bastard puts a real hurt on me.

    Beat me to it, but then again, I do not want to be the alcohol snob in the thread. Whatever it is, it is delicious and that is all that matters.

    My bad, even though it's sour mashed and aged in a barrel like most bourbons.
    But in the end your correct, it's not a bourbon.

    Labatt Blue and Molson Canadian are the most evil things Canada has ever visited upon humanity. Besides Justin Bieber that is.

    Mead is what Witches brewed to make their nose hair curl
    and grow like Poison Ivy vines.

    Mead ( /ˈmiːd/, meed; archaic and dialectal "medd"; from Old English "meodu"[1]), also called honey wine, is an alcoholic beverage that is produced by fermenting a solution of honey and water.[2] It may also be produced by fermenting a solution of water and honey with grain mash; the mash is strained off immediately after fermentation.[3] Depending on local traditions and specific recipes, it may be flavored with spices, fruit, or hops[4] (which produce a bitter, beer-like flavor). The alcoholic content of mead may range from about 8% ABV[5] to 18%. It may be still, carbonated, or sparkling, and it may be dry, semi-sweet, or sweet.[6]

    Mead is known from many sources of ancient history throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, although archaeological evidence of it is ambiguous.[7] Its origins are lost in prehistory. "It can be regarded as the ancestor of all fermented drinks," Maguelonne Toussaint-Samat has observed, "antedating the cultivation of the soil."[8]

    Claude Lévi-Strauss makes a case for the invention of mead as a marker of the passage "from nature to culture."[9] Mead has played an important role in the beliefs and mythology of some peoples. One such example the Mead of Poetry, is a mead of Norse mythology crafted from the blood of the wise being Kvasir which turns the drinker into a poet or scholar.

    You don't know what the hell you're talking about. Mead is a hell of a lot better than that (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)y wine made from grapes.

    Don't dare try EKU 28.I think the 28 is proof.Meaning 14% alc.
    I know there's stonger beers.I saw a segment of - Top Gear - last weekend
    or so and it involved travelling Europe and drinking the Most Aged and
    expensive Beers still in bottle.Most of that Stuff could literally kill ya.
    Good Homebrew can sit in a bottle for 100 years but it really isn't
    drinkable.By that time it's syrup and very thick.It will definately make one
    sick.
    But then there are those like Mikey who don't drink or can't drink & think
    it's a gas { big laugh } to hear about suds that are able to make one's
    head spin.
    Maybe that's why he can't seriously talk about Booze.His head can't
    handle the stuff.

    Mead is for those who don't know the first thing about good wine
    or beer.Like some Great Aunt who every fall makes her Mulberry
    wine the neighbors swear by.The same neighbors who wouldn't
    know Mogan David from Apple Farm.
    Man ... Grow some knowledge.
    Mead is nothing but heresay.
