I'm very partial to a good real ale - generally darker in the winter, something lighter and hoppier when it gets warm. If it's really warm, I might turn to a lager, but it would have to be a nice one, a Budvar say. I like red wines a lot - traditionally tending towards the heavier end of things - the kind of Aussie Riojas Monty Python used to say 'should only be used in hand to hand combat', tho' a friend has recently introduced me to the delights of Cote de Rhone, which has been a revelation. I like whites too, especially in the summer, and you can't beat a light rose on a hot afternoon, with the sun dappling down thru' the willows. I like a nice glass of bubbly - who doesn't? - and I'm as happy with a decent cava or prosecco as 'the real thing'. As for spirits, the only thing close to that rose for a sunny afternoon tipple is a nice G&T. I love a good single malt, or straight vodka straight from the freezer, and a nice brandy or cognac makes the perfect end to a perfect meal. Ooh, Pimms is nice too.
Apart from that, I'm really not interested in alcoholic beverages at all.
