If it's beer then Leffe or Staropramen.

For chilling in from of the TV Johnny Walker Blue Label does the trick, if I'm out of that then Jamesons it good too.

I do like usual spirits though. Like Stroh Rum 80% or Bohemian Absinth (i.e. the blue Czech variety not the green French one). Generally anything that's quite strong and a bit strange does the job

[Cowboy Bob]

Hobgoblin or some kind of porter for beer.

Or a decent single malt - Laphroaig OMC (Old Malt Cask) is the best I've tasted so far. You don't get much change from £60 for a bottle, but we're contractors and it's worth it.

Whiskey, any kind except the cheapest park bench type.

[OwlHoot]

Taylor's port, or fruli fruit beer

edit: Oh and Islay single malt. Basically anything that doesn't have a worm or dead lizard in the bottle.

Laphraoig(sp?) is neat too...

Yes, very nice. Talisker and Talisker 18 year old - very peaty. Like eating pure Irish bogs with sweetener....mmmmm...

[Gonzo]

Alcohol In any form I am happy.

[realityhack]

Twickenham Original for the bitter, Canadian Club for whisky, Royal Mojito for a cocktail, Armagnac for a straight and Budweiser (original) for lager.

Woodford Reserve

[QuietAlien]

Leffe for the larger cravings and JD single barrel for the lushness

Mmmm!!!! You must be Surrey based? Used to drink it in Woking.

Yes, Surrey based.

Also Surrey Hills Brewery selection : Shere Drop, I get from Ripley's farmers market. Very nice. Been to their brewery to pick up their ales - guy there used to work in IT!!

Guinness.

I do like red wine, but I've gone off it a bit. I also really liked Jameson, but for some reason I've gone off that a bit too. I developed a bit of a taste for Tesco 12-year old scotch, but wouldn't you know it, I've gone off that too. So I'm in a searching for decent whisk(e)y phase at the moment.

It's only Guinness that I've stuck with.
