As for the red wine, I will return with my list later.

he he...its a white German wine. A Spatlese (pronounced spot-layz)
can fall in the middle of/or be sweet or dry.

German Rieslings are categorized based on their style (levels of dryness) and the grape's ripeness level at harvest (i.e. Kabinett, Spatlese, Auslese, etc). When looking for a dry style of Riesling, the label's buzz words will be Trocken ("dry" in German) or Halbtrocken ("half-dry" in German).

Bernkastler was my favorite and its very hard to find now. Only one spirits store in Atlanta spirits shop carries it that I know of.

I like German wines best.

For the longest time I drank heavy red wines... South African and Chilean were two I really liked.

Then one day I musta got hit by a heavy object and forgot cause I am drinking white zinfandel (sp?)... hangs head in wine shame... its not even wine...its just..well fun.

I really enjoy a nice port - Mogen David is one
I love Blueberry wine from Nova Scotia (I believe or it could be NB?)
I love Saskatoon Liquer...yyuumm.... it is made in Alberta

I have never acquired a taste for beer...no matter how much I tried in my university days

I like fru fru drinks with sugar...but they don't like me

Ohhh but a very nice ice wine... expensive but what a lovely treat. 2007 saw a day time frost in central BC and they harvested and made some of the best ice wine I had tried to that date..

okay

leaving now

Spirits:

Glen Breton Ice Whiskey (Nova Scotia) Ahhhh - HEM! That would be CAPE BRETON, not Nova Scotia.....since the independence uprising of 1985! (you can take the girl out of Cape Breton, but.....)
Glenora Glen Breton Rare 10 Yr. Whiskey (Nova Scotia)
Forty Creek Barrel Whiskey (Canada)

All kidding aside, I've been curious about Glen Breton. How do you compare it to other whiskeys Linus?

I hardly drink at all, except for some beer on really hot days in the summer, and maybe a glass of wine during the holidays. So as strange as it may seem, one thing I usually have around the house is a bottle of Glenlivet Scotch. It will generally last me for years, because I just sip, but it's one of those must-have luxuries.

They make blueberry wine in both provinces. Unfortunately I had a "disappointing" experience in my freshman year in university, so don't partake in the ole blue stuff anymore.

There is a really nice blueberry beer made in Moncton, New Brunswick by Pump House Brewery. The first time I tasted it all I could taste was blueberry, but after that I made a conscious effort not to dwell on that, and it was fabulous!

Other than that, for my summer beer I usual have one of the local standards: Moosehead Light.

Uh huh. LOL.. last time I checked it was still part of Nova Scotia.

As for the whiskey, it's really good and I highly recommend it.

vodka and i like the expensive stuff (polish, please) but i'll drink the crap stuff in a pinch--nothing a little citrus won't perk up.

WolfyOne · 05-26-2010, 04:51 PM

A night of doing shots of Jose' in a pool with friends
has cured me of ever drinking hard liquor unless it's in a mixed drink

I do partake in wine from time to time
I prefer reds over whites, but like a rose' every now and then
My favorite inexpensive red is Kendall Jackson Zinfandel
Rosemount makes a good Shiraz
When I want White Zinfandel, it has to be Berringer

I even found an ice wine I liked, it's made in Canada
By Jackson-Triggs called Vidal Icewine (2007)

I recently had a Riesling I actually liked,
2007 Johannisberg V - Rheingau Riesling Kabinett
Made by Weingut Johannishof

The beer in Oklahoma sucks, so when going out of town
always have to remember to check our MGD supply
Nothing better than a good cold beer on a hot summer day

When in the mood, I've been known to drink a cooler or 3

with some

Or I like sweet wines, a fruit smoothie with vodka, wine with mulling spices, or a mudslide. But on very rare occasions.
