WHISKEY

Mead - Lanchester, or if I can afford it from the Magic-Mead.co.uk website
Red Wine - only when i'm in the house
Beer
Cider - Mainly Kopparberg or Rekorderlig but Woodpecker when i'm out as its cheaper
Jack Daniels/Southern Comfort - in the house only as I get major hangovers the morning after if I drink it on a night out...
Absinthe and Lemonade
Captain Morgans and Coke

Variety is the spice of life I find...
 
Single malts all the way. Good blended scotch can be ok but nothing beats a peaty single.

Also mixing a good whisky is atrocious, however using empty bottles to store and drink coke out of is amazing. Especially corked bottles, you get all the overtones but very little overt flavour that way and makes for great amplitude, it's almost a different drink entirely.
 
I hate cheap whisky with a passion, would you guys recommend a good whisky or scotch that you can find anywhere in the world ? Cheap whisky make me wanna puke. I just use it in whisky/coke 50/50 and drink them quickly when I wanna party quick, but this shit is so disgusting. I have tasted very good whiskys in the past, randomly, so if you have any recommendation I would appreciate it.

I'm a very very big fan of good red wine. What I like about red wine is that the diversity has no equivalent, they taste so damn different. There is no more perfect accompagnement for a good red meat meal than a good red wine. Usually cool for chill moments at home with friends, or with a date.

I like white wine as well, I got used to sugar-y wines after living 2 years in south of france, and some of them are very good, at a cheap price. Usually perfect to share with girls since most of them love that as well.

I like beer as well though I'm not too keen in the strong and very tasty ones. In portugal I quite enjoy their local industrial beer, the Super Bock. Cheap and decent. At least here you can order a beer anywhere and you know it's not gonna be pure piss.

Being in Porto now, I have learnt to appreciate porto more, especially the red porto. Red wine will still have way more finess than any porto IMO, but I enjoy it as a starter.

I love Cider a lot too, though it makes me wanna shit if it's a biological one :lol:

I have had real absinthe from someone in the alps who made it himself, a few times, that was something ! (In france legislation considered absinthe made with the full ingredients illegal and considered as a drug or something so you could find light absinthe only which were made without the extra ingredients, and with a different name like "absenthe" to make it legally acceptable to sell it in shops)
 
I'm a Jameson guy through and through.

When it comes to beers, I use Budweiser products to water my garden. Using rice as an adjunct? Screw you, leave that for sake. I love just about everything that Stone Brewery and Brooklyn Brewery put out (especially their Chocolate Stout), if I'm in a restaurant I'll usually go with Sam Adams.

I've been homebrewing for about 10 years now, I do extract kits as I don't have the gear to do a full mash brew. I try and vary things up, one of the best/most popular beers I made was an American lager that I infused with 1lb of Red Hot candies during the boil. The beer itself turned out pink (I was hoping for red) but had a wonderful cinnamon aftertaste. My family and friends keep asking when I'm brewing up another batch of that one :D
 
P-E, moi j'suis au Saguenay pis si tu passe là un mandné, essaye la Criminelle de la Voie Maltée. Y'en on au métro de Jonquiere pis au Corneau Cantin de chicoutimi. Sinon y'ont 2 resto-microbrasserie avec d'la bonne bouf. ;P Mais ouais Unibrou, quand j'prend pas une Criminelle j'va pour une Maudite ;)

Nice, j'vais checker ça certain ! (Maudite FTW.)

Russtopher, I'd love to drink that beer, sounds amazing.
 
Mat, Super Bock is my favorite beer, the black non-alcoholic kind (fortunately it's pretty common here in Galicia), and Porto Wine is something I never miss when I go there. Btw, I stopped through Porto two months ago, in my way to Vagos Open Air, maybe next time we could hang out a bit.
 
I'm a freshman in college....I drink what the upperclassmen give me and I don't make a fuss.:D

But 9 times outa 10 a free beer is usually a shit beer.
 
This is what I'm drinking at the moment, can't afford lagavulin

I never actually enjoyed whiskey/scotch (I may be still too young haha), I'm more of a rum guy! Any rum lovers here?

Otherwise, beer of course, mostly imported: Stella Artois, Beck's, Corona, Leffe, Hoegaarden, etc.

I'm starting to enjoy wine more and more, especially good ones as my father is an incredible wine-lover. Mostly started with whites one, sweet and fruity, but currently moving onto red ones (cabernet-shiraz especially).

I have tried my first non alcoholic beer recently and it was horrible. Not a Super Bock though.

Do you know when there will be other festivals or concerts here ? I dont know where to check. And yeah definitely hit me up! Sometimes I'm bored during my days off, would it be worth a little trip to Galicia ? I heard there are good vegetarian cookers there !
 
Having tried a few of the more upmarket scotches out there I always find myself coming back to Johnnie Walker Black Label. It's pretty hard to beat if you prefer blended scotches. Cheap and effective :D

I also recently discovered a drink known as "The Great Southern Trendkill" that a local rock bar serves. It's basically a 50/50 mix of Wild Turkey and Southern Comfort. It tastes much better than it sounds.

You can come whenever you want dude, it really is a nice place to visit if you like natural green landscapes. About the vegetarian places, there's a couple good ones here in Coruña, there's more in Vigo, it's a bigger city (and ridiculously close to Porto), although the typical food is fish and seafood mostly, highly recommended if you like that stuff. Great beer as well, Estrella Galicia is the local one and favored by everyone from Coruña.

Right now I don't think there's more festivals, plenty of cool concerts though in Porto, all the big tours go through there. Vagos Open Air is killer every year, this was my first time but the lineup has been ridiculously good (for my taste) always, I hope to be able to go again next year.
 
for bourbon I like Buffalo Trace, Bulleit, Makers and Makers 46
For scotch I love Laphroaig, Ardbeg, the Balvenie Doublewood, Glenfiddich 12 and Glenlivet 12.
My favorite being Highland Park 12. Defuckinglicious!
