Top 5 Adult Libations

Not including wine. That's an entirely separate category.

For Steve...

5. Stout
Guinness. Rocks. Damn, I want to go to Hibernian now. And I mean right now. I'm thirsty. When I finally make it to Ireland, I'm going to St. James Gate, and I will be taking the Homer Simpson At The Duff Factory style tour. That is, I'm going to drink lots while I'm there.

4. Hefeweizen
Dominion, Pyramid, Widmer. These are incredibly tasty beers, normally with a healthy taste of hops, while having nearly no bitterness. Strong, crisp flavor. I'll look for these as a great chill beer. Also of note here, in the same kinda-sorta family, would have to be the Belgian White's, like Blue Moon and Hoegaarden. Awesome brews. Plus, I just wanted to say Hoegaarden.

3. Grey Goose and Soda
With a twist of lime. No sugar in this drink, so for one, its low cal....two, no sugar means hangovers aren't nearly as bad. The lime really subdues the drink and can easily make one forget how many drinks they've had. A fantastic alternative to the stiffer brown liquors, and a considerably more sophisticated drink than the Vodka Red Bulls that are so pervasive in today's bar scene.

2. Maker's and Ginger
Now, I will fight anyone who dares question the fact that Maker's Mark is hand's down, the best Kentucky Bourbon. Hook up the IV, Doc. Seriously, this is one of the best sipping drinks that you can order. This also happens to be my drink of choice for a night on the town or a pre-dinner cocktail.

1. Lager
Good ol' fashioned beer. Fuck yeah. Pilsner, Dry, Lite, Pales, Bocks. What'll ya have? Pabst Blue Ribbon....What'll ya have? Paaaabst Bluuuuue Ribbbboooon. Let's see...Yuneglings, Kirin Ichiban, Bohemia, Amstel Light, Flying Dog Doggie Style, Fat Tire, Southampton, Corona, Miller Lite. My God, the list goes on. I am jonesing for beer. Now, get the fuck outta the way, the bar beckons.
