|  Favorite Drinks?
Sometimes it's nice to have a few glasses by the campfire. I don't like to haul bottles of wine on the trail because my stomach is not very fond of it, especially if rugged terrain awaits me tomorrow. A few sips of Jägermeister is what usually does the trick for me.

When car camping normally some beer, unless just me then Evan Willams.
When backpacking, I will carry a small flask of Evans if I am only out for a night or two but not always. If I am going for more than a night or two I wont carry anything.

I like variety - bourbon, single malt Scotch, rum and fruit juice, gin and tonic, vodka and anything. Coors Light, wheat beers, Moose Drool, Orvals, Guiness. Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, J. Reisling. Pinot Noir, Cab, Sangiovese, Red Zinfandel. Those would all be favorites.

Pretty much beer when car camping, or single malt scotch when weight counts. I'm not a big wine drinker, but I'll have some now and again.
I like a good cognac from time to time as well, but that can run into big $$ for top shelf brands.

Hi...
I rarely drink.
On my extremely rare visits to a local pub, it's generally Bud Light...two drinks...and that's it. On even rarer occasions, I may have a gin and tonic in a tall glass filled with ice, and topped off with tonic.
I'm a very cheap date...!!

My favorite drink is whatever you're buying....
My second favorite would be a nice single malt scotch

Congratulations to all who don't drink, or have the 2 drink maximum rule. As I get older drinking has become much less important. It was probably a way to deal with both an intense working career, and a formerly difficult marriage. With a great new lady (14 years so far) and being retired, drinking is now a very conscious, deliberate decision made with restraint.
