Beck's and St Pauli Girl are good clean German's

Pacifico and XX dark are good Mexicans

Sam Adams BL and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale are good American beers. Anchor Steam is good too.

Fuller's London Pride is a great Brit beer

Chopin Vodka is a real potato(e) vodka and is great stuff.

A really good cheap red wine is Smoking Loon Cab Sauv BV is another good one that isn't as cheap. Rodney Strong has a really good full flavored Cab.

For Tequila, Don Julio Anejo.

If you want some Gin, Bombay Sapphire.

If you want to learn to drink scotch do single malts in the 12-15yr range. You can add a little water or over ice. Scotch has a very earthy, peat, flavor to it. Personally I do not enjoy it.

Have we gotten so soft that we really need to give a 21 yr old drinking advice? I know what the law says, but jesus...............i thought everyone had fake id and was sneaking kegs through the dorm window like i used to do back in the day. No wonder we have people shooting up classrooms. Our kids are wound way too tight.


At 21 I bought whatever I could afford, simple as that. Now that I am 39 I am predominantly a wine and beer drinker depending on my mood. Tonight its beer. Since I've been dieting I've been sticking to light beers. Amazingly I have learned that Miller Lite tastes great and is less filling.
