I'm not gonna go by brand.
Beer :
Local micro-breweries or bust. The rest of the stuff just doesn't add up, and if I choose, I refuse to drink a beer under 9%. Extra strong IPA, Imperial Stout or Barley Wine are my choice.
I say local, but I'd say the same regardless of where I am. There's breweries everywhere these days.
Rum :
Brown spiced. I've tried way too many brands and ages to care.
Vodka :
Chilled if it's good.
Screwdriver if it's not.
Whiskey :
Bourbon is my poison of choice, but Kentucky style, not the others. Not a fan of the sour mashes either.
Blended over single-malt, but I've never had quality single-malt other than that one twelve-year I drank which I forgot the name.
I'll break my own rule and mention a dark rum blended scotch from the Benriach that's quite a treat.
Creams :
Maple creams only, and in coffee only. I just use 'em as creamer. On that I'm as Eastern Canadian as they come.
