Don't like the taste, but I'm fine with other people drinking

I like wine (Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, and Riesling are some of my favorites), beer (from smaller breweries, preferably, although I'll drink the moose piss if that's all there is), and cider (I've only ever had Woodchuck). Bourbon, rum, and Irish whiskey aren't bad either.

I don't really find most alcoholic drinks really all that nice. They just taste bitter and burn my throat.

I can usually drink British made Carslburg because its weak tasteless crap, but I much prefer Everards Tiger Ale.

Alcohol is stupid and drinking it is stupid.

That is all.

I was on a major martini kick for the last few years...Now I prefer sipping a nice, neat, Makersmark.

*edit*
And of course beer, I'll drink anything brewed in a pinch, but I much prefer craft brews and micro brews when given a choice.

Married and divorced an alcoholic. Had / fired an alcoholic business partner in my first business. Kinda lost interest in drinking alcohol after that. I might drink as much as a 12-pack of beer and a bottle of wine over the course of a calendar year, but I haven't been *drunk* in over 30 years.

Though I need a few more months to drink literally, I enjoy margaritas, charro negro, and highballs in parties.

I'm currently dry and I'll remain this way because alcohol is incompatible with my Sertraline.

I don't drink all that often. My general preference is to drink just enough to get buzzed without going any further, and since I drink very infrequently that doesn't take all that much. I enjoy scotch on the rocks, honey meads, eiswein, and a variety of sweet mixed drinks. I never drink when I'll have to drive (my personal legal BAC is 0.000), and I don't drink when I have to work the next day.

Really sweet...Mexico...

You mean mosco? That sweet stuff, I had some from Chalma. Didn't like it, it was so sweet it was more like alcoholic cough syrup.

Depends. Are non-alcoholic beers also included when referring to "drinking"? If so, I am a non-alcoholic alcoholic. :P Because I drink non-alcoholic beer at least twice a day. My favorite brands are Tuborg, and Efes.

Uh-huh.

I've been drinking for a while. No regrets thus far. And I doubt I'll have any for the rest of the time I drink.

I like Blue Moon beer. Brandy is my absolute favorite. I only like whiskey when I have something especially depressing going on that I need to forget about. I'm not picky about brands. I'll try just about anything. I'm not crazy about the fruity cocktails. Blech. Alas, I try not to drink very much. There's a long history of substance abuse in my family, and I have to be careful so that I don't become an alcoholic. :(

If you have nothing constructive to add to this discussion, could you take the Morality Police with you on your way out and let the rest of us converse on our drinks in peace?

You know what is even more stupid?

Complaining about other people's responsible drinking in a thread that is designated to discuss the virtues of different alcoholic beverages. If you want to whine and moan about your perception of how evil alcohol is, get your own damn thread.

The cheaper and stronger the better. Not much into the connoisseur bullshit. Drinking is for getting drunk.
