    Reminds me of uni days. VB cans to the ceiling until money became short and last resort was a flagon of port.

    Favourite drink? Too hard as it would be a list of beer, fortifieds, wine and spirits.

    Depends on the occasion, food and company.

    But the standalone for relaxation and contemplation is Macallen single malt. No ice no water.

    Somewhat belated but ...

    Beers? I always come back to James Squire Amber Ale as a fav. I like Little Creatures but can only really have one or two before it becomes a little too strong in flavour. There are lots and lots of others - some mainstream, some boutique, but I always come back to Squire. Some English Ales are great but don't buy them regularly enough to quote names. Oh - love guiness and kilkenny but it is only real high on the list when from the tap and set up correctly with lots sold or it can taste truly woeful. Don't like to drink the cheaper stuff but will if I have to except for VB (and Fosters). VB from a can should be a criminal offence. Coopers is OK but these days a little overrated IMO.

    Spirits - not a real fan of any - got sick on too many when young. I guess some that are mixed to the point of no longer tasting them are OK. Though quite like schnappes, and stuff like frangelica.

    Wines - Have a sweet tooth so prefer sweeter wines generally. If it's dry there needs to be lots of flavour. Whites generally or old reds with the tannins largely gone (which means expensive unfortunately). Love stickys - the best I've ever had have been NZ ones. Love fortifieds too - muscat is the fav (Stanton and Killeen 12yr is great for the price - to my taste buds) then Tokays then Ports (have been scarred by a bad port incident around a campfire).

    And love my teas - have piles of different leaf teas, blacks, greens, rooibos, etc

    Ah, good old BB. SWMBO works there, makes for quite an extensive range at home. Never get sick of her bringing her work home. (but have got a little seedy a few times)

    Default Favourite Drink

    Too many good ones to name, but at least I have graduated from Stone's Green Ginger Wine, brown muscat and Fosters.

    Love a good single malt but not with ice, Straight or with cool water only otherwise flavours are lost if the Scotch is too cold.
    Love robust Aus. reds, not so robust Aus. reds, Aus. reds of quality and a few whites.

    Love Champagne!

    Love Caiparina!

    Best beers I've ever had are all brewed by my son. Outside that dark beers with Guiness at the top of the list.
