what?
there should be a commandment that says to know what the hell you're talking about!
"wine"cooler
it has "wine" in it's name for crying out loud. that makes it a form of wine.:)
Most wine coolers aren't even made from actual wine anymore.
It's not wine. It's malt liquor.
Barley wine isn't wine either, despite the name.

You don't need sour mix in a good margarita.
All you need is good tequila, triple sec or Cointreau, and fresh lime juice
agreed.. I can't stand any premade sour mixes either, shit's disgusting

I used to drink margaritas frozen, but that was before I knew better. Nothing like a great margarita on the rocks. 2 or 3 and you might lose your legs when you get up from the table at the tex-mex place.
Not a big martini drinker, but I'm old school. Gin belongs in a martini.
I'm starting to get into bourbon more and more. Usually stick with what I know (Beam, Maker's). Never really tried scotch, but it's something I want to get into.
And while I'll catch some slag for it, I'm a rum drinker. Me and the Captain go way back, but his cousin Sailor Jerry slides in from time to time as it as more bite.
I love beer, so it's my go-to drink of choice. A nod to TMC's 90 Minute IPA mention. Dogfish Head has some classics. If you get a chance, try their 120 Minute IPA. I got one of those beer a day calendars and have been pinning up beers I want to try on my cube wall at work. Got to take one down from over the weekend, Old Specked Hen. An English ale that actually tasted better (to me at least) as it warmed a bit from the fridge. My poolside drink of choice is a light beer, and while Corona isn't anything to write home about, Landshark is better.
As far as wine goes, is it manly? Who's to say? However, I don't drink wine unless it's red, and the drier the better.
You know what makes a man's drink? A man who will stand behind his drink, no matter what he's drinking.

Good post, BD.
I love many varieties of red wine, scotch, and of course beer. I love a good IPA, and a nice 4 pack of Dogfish Head 90 will certainly give me a great buzz. Loose Cannon and Rogue Dead Guy are also favorites.
I'm not a gin or rum drinker at all. Gin tastes like pine needles and rum is way too sweet for me. Single malt scotches are a my #1 drink of choice.

beefeater, yum.. gin needs to be very dry and crisp
my stepdad is a tanqueray drinker, not a fan of that stuff at all
