What do you think about Guinness beer,some people love this Irish dry stout, and then some people do not get the whole Guinness thing ? This Guinness beer features a burnt flavor that is derived from malted barley,and roasted unmalted barley as well. I have had it a few times from a can, and it...

I have not tried any stouts lately but they are rather strong as far as the ABV goes-like 7 or 8% alcohol sometimes,and others around 5%-but I would have to say that Guinness would be my favorite stout so far. I think I may get some Guinness though-since my birthday is coming up and celebrate. I...

I never thought to go with Japan, when shopping for Whiskey at the local liquor store, but it seems like the price might be out of my price range anyways, as far as this Japanese Whiskey goes. It seems like it has won a lot of awards though,but I think I will stick with the Irish and Scottish...

I really have a lighter style when drinking my wine-and at the most-a couple of bottles a week-but other times I might not drink any wine at all. A bottle of wine has only about 4 big glasses of wine in it-but I think a good amount of wine would be a couple of glasses everyday - I think this...

I would not hang out with smokers, because I like to keep my lungs nice and healthy-but they still claim that there is no link between passive secoundhand smoke and cancer(or some studies do)? What's interesting, is that they are curious about people living with a smoker for 30 years,and say it...

I would say some that kind of heather ale was the drink of Scotland because they say it was around since 2000BC. They actually added fresh heather flowers to this ale when they brewed it. I think this heather ale was made back before they had hops for bittering-and it may also be the oldest...

I have maybe played beer pong before, but I really do not remember it to well. Also beer pong was first played with paddles by some Dartmouth students. They play it more with 6 to 10 cups arranged in a triangle these days, on both sides of the ping pong table-now if the ball lands in your...

I think since its getting around Christmas time-I would go with something like a White Salamander Cocktail-which is made up of some irish cream and spiced rum. Fill a rocks glass about 3/4 high with crushed or cracked ice,then pour the spiced rum over the ice and follow with the irish cream,with...

I have read studies that moderate drinking is good for your creativity-it makes the brain's controlling aspect disappear and makes you more spontaneous, they say. A lot of great writers were great drinkers as well-but of course to much drinking hurts your creativity-so I would go with a few...

I have had steamed oysters before with butter and garlic at a place on the coast a long time ago and they are quite good this way(maybe add a bit of hot sauce),served with some cold beer as well. I am not a fan of raw oysters though, and I think they are still alive when you eat them this...

A few years ago at Christmas time, somebody had bought some O'mara's Irish Country Cream as a gift to the family- and it had a blend of Irish Whiskey and cream in it-but on a note to this Irish Cream-is that they use wine in the blending of this liqueur, making it different than any other of...

I would pick a nice quiet type of beach village-you know the ones with those beach-shack type of bars,that when you go in swimming they are right there. I like a more peaceful quiet kind of place to have a beer or two-or some wine or maybe a glass of whiskey. Also maybe somewhere big enough...

They probably drink a lot of boiler makers(glass of beer and a shot of whiskey)would be my first guess though. I did just read that Chicago people drink more than twice the amount of Jack Daniel's and Miller Beer compared to the national averages, which is kind of amusing. I think they also...

I like that commercial a lot about Johnnie Walker Whisky-and it gives this Scotch Whisky a very deep meaning and a very rooted feel with a sense of place and good memories as well, I must say(It also looks like they are throwing some ashes of a family member back to the sea at the end). I have...

I think hard cider keeps better if its refrigerated and keeps best if the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit-but it does not need refrigeration at all, after you bottle or can it though. I think maybe, it works best,having the hard cider-next to the beer because of the marketing studies...

You could check out this old school bar called Kelly's Olympian Bar-which has lots of neon and old road signs also motorcycles- and also you can grab a bite to eat here as well. Since its also one of the oldest eateries in Portland,Oregon- opening back in 1902 - I would say you could check this...

I have a nephew that lives there but I have never been there(Seattle)-but if you are looking for hipster bars,you could start in a hipster neighborhood like Capital Hill. This neighborhood has trendy restaurants,bars and boutiques and its easy to walk,ride a bike or take mass transit, I have...

You could try some of the Irish Pubs in Chicago,and one you should try out, is called the "River Shannon Pub"- it seems to be a friendly place overall, also you can bring your dog along as well, because its a very dog friendly bar. They say overall its a friendly-neighborhood kind of pub scene...

This bar looks great in the daytime because you can do your laundry there, if you are visiting and wait for your clean clothes to dry-its located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Its called the "Sunshine Laundromat" and its kind of hidden away(speakeasy style),also it looks like a fun place to play some...

It gives me a great idea for a Bar(haha),but they do have pinball machines at this place to, so thats very cool and retro as well. It would be great though to have a glass of wine or mug of beer-or whatever drink because they look like they have a full bar in this place. Wow pinball machines...
