    Perhaps the only beer that would make me pine for a Coors Light or Bud light.</p>

    Either straight liquor or beer. Mixed drinks seem too girly.</p>

    Straight Whiskey's aright</p>

    Blasphemy! It's brewed for a naturally smooth taste! It says so right on the can!</p>

    </p>

    Taking a Coors Lite over a Natty is terrible, and I hate you for it.</p>

    I'm not even mentioning that they got a new can design that makes it that much better!</p>

    I bet you didn't even know you could get Natty Light bottles, but you can, and I love to drink them, too.</p>

    I think a little water brings out the flavor of a good whiskey.</p>

    You have my response!</p>

    Any brandy drinkers here? I was a scotch man before I tried out a VSOP. Delicious, a much richer after taste than my Red Label IMO.</p>

    There was a girl walking around pouring that at the end of the Devils VIP party.</p>

    I don't remember what it tastes like, but I had three glasses.</p>

    (Actually, if my "bartender" memory serves me right, it tastes like almonds.)</p>

    haha you party animal. Disaronno is purely a dessert beverage to me; delicious; caramel / almond taste; very sweet, but not syrupy.</p>

    Whiskey,Malibu and Baileyswith Ice. Sounds strange but the sweetness of the Malibu and Baileys cancels out the harshness of the Whiskey.</p>

    This thread is really perfect for me - I'm a whiskey snob. My favorite used to be Jack Daniels, which is what got me started on whiskey. I've never been able to drink vodka and don't really like gin, but the dark stuff goes down like water [​IMG]</p>

    </p>

    as far as I'm concerned, Scotch Whisky is the first and last word in the genre. And as far as that goes, here's the lineup. The Gospel, according to Schaddy lol</p>

    </p>

    Distilled and bottled where the rivers Avon and Livet meet, in the Glen of Livet, just south of Ballindoch, Scotland, this is the finest drink ever concocted by human kind:</p>

    [​IMG]</p>

    </p>

    You probably know it as the Scotch that comes in the dark green bottle with parchment paper labeling, and I, too, have 7 bottles that fit the description. I have three that look like the one pictured. None cost less than $49. Every drop was worth every cent. There is simply nothing that compares to the quality found within these bottles. It has a warm, peaty taste and really does have a fruity, mellow nose. For my money, there isno drink on the earth finer than the Glenlivet.</p>

    #4</p>

    </p>

    Now, I've sampled my fair share of blended whiskeys, Scotch, Irish, Canadian and otherwise. But I honestly don't prefer them. The only blended whiskies that I will drink are as follows, though they all rank well below the single malts in quality: Bushmill's, JW Blue - only had it once, it's not worth the outrageous price, JW Black and JW Green, which is my favorite blended whisky. Jameson's is garbage, in all honesty. It's only popular because it is marketed well in North America. Flame away, especially for that last comment. [​IMG]</p>

    Like I said, American sour mashes were my origional favorite. Maybe Scotch is an acquired taste, because I've had my share of each...not encouraging you young guys, I'm just a fan of fine whisky, it's really the only thing I ever drink. But it's a taste that has a hold of me. I have no problem with those who prefer whisky's North American counterparts, because all whiskies > liquor, after all [​IMG]</p>

    I've had enough scotch to pass any threshold for acquiring a taste. If someone else is buying, or is bringing a bottle of their personal favorite, I'll drink it, but it isn't my preference. </p>

    So many business trips and so many business dinners...</p>

    LOL I guess I haven't had the opportunity to go on a lot of business trips yet - for us college guys, I look like a freak for actually spending top dollar for liqour. To each his own, I guess I've never thought of good Scotch as being too common.</p>
