I’m a bit of a real ale fan but I’m not a buff. I love bitters and stouts. I love malt whisky too witn Laphroaig being my favourite although I haven’t tried that many. I like JD and coke. Rum and coke. In fact, come to think of it, I’ll drink pretty much anything.

Beer makes me tell bad jokes.
(XXX- American beer brand name) makes me urinate.
Wine puts me to sleep.
Meade makes me go to Renaissance Faires.
Sake makes me binge-watch Anime.
Whisky makes me cry and listen to Country Music.
Rum makes me talk like a pirate.
Vodka makes me invade my neighbors.
Absinthe gets me arrested.
'Squeeze' lets me survive the 'Piedmont (Arizona) Incident'.
Tequila makes my clothes fall off.
I've always been a bourbon man, with Wild Turkey 101 being my brand of poison. Scotch comes in 2nd place, with both gentler malts like Dalwhinnie, and harsh-as-hell Laphroiag being my favorites. I love real ale, the more bitter the better. My guilty pleasure is Bass Ale, which I found by most to be dismissed in the UK, but an undiscovered delicacy here in America.
Yeah, I am a big fan of Bass Ale too. I remember years ago ordering it in an Irish Pub here in Washington, D.C. I got a really dirty look and the barmaid said sir, that is an English beer and this is an Irish Pub.
I love malt whisky too with Laphroaig being my favourite although I haven’t tried that many.
I've tried most of them and my favourites are Laphroaig, Lagavulin, The Dalmore and the original Glenmorangie. At the blended whisky budget end, I really like Whyte and Mackay and Cutty Sark. Some favourites no longer available in Australia are White Horse and Black and White. On a hot day, nothing better than a really cold Heineken.
I forgot to mention my favourite Whiskey (as opposed to Whisky) which would be a wee drop of the Irish - Bushmills Black Bush and The Proper Twelve. I regard Wild Turkey in terms of Van Gogh's "morning fields of amber grain" - liquid sunshine, but I am not currently patronising US products. However, I am patronising Canadian Club.

I’d certainly like to try Lagavulin but it’s so expensive. £80 around the cheaper end. I’ll have to look around online George and invest in one. Likewise Macallan.

In my younger days a Double Diamond was my drink of choice, and when I could afford a chaser, it was always a Southern Comfort.
Nowadays, I stick with a cold dark Guinness, absolute nectar.

Double Diamond works wonders…
I remember the advertisement well Wick. Remember ‘beer at home means Davenport’s.’
