Drink Recommendations

Cool tip, this is what I was hoping to find in this thread, I will give it a go and report back, thanks Matty!

Seriously, if you don't love it I'll be surprised. It's great stuff, I always have a bottle in my freezer.

For rum i cant recommend Ron Rico enough. Bought it one day for the awesome name and fell in love. Excellent for mixing in everything. Very sweet compared to other rums.

Also Castillo Silver is pretty good, it has that Bacardi type rum taste (which im not a big fan of, but i think most people are). I think Castillo is Bacardi in a cheaper bottle. Probably best in frozen drink mixes.

I can personally drink very cheap rum. I dont really do it with any other type liquor, at least willingly.

I'm a Sky vodka drink but I also mix mine with stuff that makes its a waste to buy the top shelf stuff. Yesterday on the beach we made a very large batch of madrases (sp) 1/3 vodka 1/3 orange juice, 1/3 cramberry juice.

Yo Matty, seriously, thanks for the Tito's recommendation. Just picked some up yesterday, saving me like $15 compared to GG, and it's way better. Having a bloody mary now while watching the British Open, with a stalk of celery and a fresh green bean from my garden.

Great vodka. Actually has some flavor compared to the GG, you can smell the corn origins. I love it, can't see myself ever going back to the Goose.

Thanks.

Nice, glad you like it

Svedka Vodka is a must try. My buddy turned me on to it about 5 or so years ago it's priced right and to me its beats out Smirnoff and Grey Goose. My buddy has run liquor stores for some time now and knows his stuff. Look up Svedka its been rated high and has received awards for vodka. I've never tried Titos but seems interesting I'm going to have to give it a try.

Ciroc ain't cheap but, it's a quality product. Not that anyone here would care.

That's a pretty solid list. A couple more that I really like are local variities so I'm not sure if these are available in all areas...

Core Vodka (http://www.harvestspirits.com/core_vodka.html) - made from apples

Whats everybody sippin on these days in the hot summer weather beer-wise?

Ive had the Sammy Adams Summer Ale this year and its gross imo. Got a sixer of the Sierra Nevada Summerfest Lager in the fridge now, kinda of a disappointment but better than the Sams. Had a couple Leinenkugels Summer Shanty couple weeks ago and thought it was better this year than its been in the past, but still a lil bit too lemony.

The last couple years Ive drank about of keg Heineken when Im in the hot outside weather. Light, nice eastern pils bit, and I can drink a six without being too buzzed.

Any suggestions?
