My favorite beer is a bitter from a British pub, typically served at room temperature.
Very true, Most Ales are better warmer.Most craft beers are best a bit warmer, certainly not ice cold.
The best thing about seltzers is that they're way cheaper to make than beer, so probably keeps beer prices in check for fear of loosing customers.I think that's to indicate things like White Claw, and all the seltzer drinks now taking over space in the beer fridge at most supermarkets. They seem to have a lot of appeal to beer drinkers, and fall into that same 4-5% alcohol in a can category.
Makers 46 is my favorite, but there are several I used to buy regularly. For everyday Old Fashioned I usually had a bottle of Larceny on hand. I preferred wheated bourbons. I have drifted back to Single Malt Scotch (Lagavulin) and Irish (Jameson Black) for now.Bourbon... Old Forester 1910, Elijah Craig Small Batch, Four Roses Single Barrel, Woodford Reserve Double Oaked and Buffalo Trace
For the bourbon drinkers... what are some of your favorites?
The poll tells me exactly what I wanted to know.Why all the combos?

Wine/wine based cocktails

Just which alcohol beverage is your preference, not necessarily to the exclusion of others.
Only asking because beer is my third or fourth choice, unlike most of my peers. I have less than 7 drinks/week.
If you don’t drink or or prefer none, you don’t have to vote, but there’s a choice for those who vote before reading.
When it comes to alcohol, I do not discriminate.
I drink them all, but beer more than anything else. But occasionally a glass of wine with dinner, usually red wine but occasionally white. But if it is hot, a gin and tonic of frozen margherita tastes good. I also sometimes mix beer with ginger beer for a shandy or beer with Clamato juice or Bloody Mary mix for a redeye. Or Bloody Mary's are good too.
It all depends on my mood. I think I'll have a redeye!
ETA: Boy, that tastes good.

I doubt that it's any good. Beer goes bad pretty quick.
I don't know. When I drank whiskey back in the day, open bottles seem to be emptied pretty quick.What about open bottles of whiskey?
Just curious......

Frank and I don't drink anything alcoholic, or take recreational drugs. We don't care what others do, but that is our choice.
He works in a bar from time to time, and they don't have to worry about him drinking at work. Instead they give him all the free Diet Coke he wants and everybody's happy.
I ... So that brings me to beer as long as it is a chocolate stout. Even so I don't drink very often and I still have a six pack left in the refrigerator from the 2 I bought last December.
Cheers!

I don't know anything about Chocolate Stout Beers so I'll let you "experts" comment further. But I can tell you from experience, that regular beers like, Coronas, Millers, Coors, etc, do go bad pretty quick, even when refrigerated. Like maybe 4 to 6 months. Or at least they taste bad to me and if I'm going to drink beer, I'm after the fresh taste. YMMVI'll disagree with Car-Guy on this one, I think there's a very good chance they are still very good.
A) It's a Chocolate Stout - can age well, and lots of flavor covers up some minor flaws that would be more apparent in a light lager.
C) It's been in the fridge. Heat will age a beer quickly, cold storage can even improve it (that's what "lagering" is).
Just try it - and report back!

I had 4 of 6 cans left in the fridge from June to the following May.
Called the local brewer to ask if it was now skunk. The answer was no, good to drink. And it was!
