FWIW: When I started drinking, I carefully chose a beer to make people think I had class & taste. I don't. When I blew up my clutch before I was able to fix it myself, a friend did the job for me. I asked what I owed him; he said, nothing, just remember to help other friends when they need it. I pushed, insisting I give him something. He said, OK, bring by a case of beer. Any American beer, ice cold, because all the imported stuff is for snobs. And that's when I stopped being a snob of any type. Be a regular, good guy, because that's all we should have to be. There's nothing wrong with drinking good, normal beer....and, besides, if it's a good seller, it's fresh, and it's important that your beer be recently brewed, unlike wines which usually need to age a bit. Besides, after the first two drinks, pretty much nobody can tell the difference anyway, so why waste money on more expensive brew. And whenever you have the option, go for what's on tap.
Hard liqour, go for something that's at least palatable, most spirits taste like turpentine. Far too many men spend their lives drinking stuff that tastes awful just trying to prove to everyone else that they are manly enough to put up with the horrible taste.
Cocktail, a Tanqueray martini is ok, don't ever go for the 'shaken, not stirred' idiocy because you'll sound like every other james bond wannabe.
Learn what wines you like; then, you have to learn each year if the past year's vintage is any good. I made the mistake back in 1982; 1979 was apparently a great year. so I just automatically bought the same wine the next year, and thought it had gone bad. Nope. It was rotten year for wine, and none of it was any good. As far as what wines go with what food, just drink what you like. Oh yeah, and don't get conned into believing that really expensive wines are so much better. In blind taste tests, even wine testers can't pick out the really expensive stuff. A medium priced wine can be just as good. Don't get stuck paying for the name on the label. Oh yeah, and on good years, stuff in a box can be just as good as any bottle. If you don't believe me, try it and see.
Champagne; Freixenet. I just like the black bottle. Tastes as good as any.
Water; unless your is truly awful, tap.

Sure, you can do it, and find a way to make it work; but why?Comment

Moscow mule... Now that is a tasty drink. In addition to the lime, I like to garnish it with a slice of ginger root that I cut into a pencil sized piece to act as a stirring device.
On beers, I prefer ales. Brown, wheat, amber, IPA. In that order. When I'm in less distinguished company, ie: when I need to be drinking out of a can to be able to shotgun at a moment's notice, I prefer Labatt Blue.Comment

Those things are pretty good. And not much. I like to on occasion, but not if I have to drive or if I have my daughter. I just want suggestion of things I should try so when I go out with my friends, who like to try a pitcher of something every time, I can actually stand the taste.88 325i Cabrio

Nothing wrong with those. Sure fire bet to get your money's worth of alcohol.
But ask for Top shelf. It's worth the extra $1 and they tend to be a little more loose with the pours.No E30 ClubOriginally posted by MrBurgundyAnyways, mustangs are gay and mini vans are faster than your car, you just have to deal with that.Comment

What's the local brewery scene like in Kansas? When in doubt drink local.Those things are pretty good. And not much. I like to on occasion, but not if I have to drive or if I have my daughter. I just want suggestion of things I should try so when I go out with my friends, who like to try a pitcher of something every time, I can actually stand the taste.
I know Boulevard is down there. That's pretty good shit. My suggestions are usually shit because I either drink something local or something obscure that majority of most bars don't carry. It's very PNW of me... I know.Comment
