If you could only drink one particular type of alcohol and one particular brand for the rest of your life (or the rest of the weekend, if the thought of a lifetime ban horrifies you), what would it be?

I am going to be extemely boring and say beer, Budweiser beer. I have tried hundreds of different types of beer and still like Bud the best, even though I know it would be hipper to like some sort of ale or lager. And I still prefer beer to more sophisticated drinks such as scotch or whatever. What can I say, I am a crude individual with simple tastes.

But hey, whatever you drink, it's all good. Unless you drink too much of it. And none of us would ever do that, of course!

Oh, the other part is your favorite song with an alcohol reference in it. Mine is "Red Red Wine" by The Replacements. As the song says, I ain't no connoiseur cat. Second would be "Alcohol" by the Kinks.

Beer is it. And right now it's Old Milwaukee Ice tall cans.

The song maybe One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer by George Thorogood

Carlo Rossi Burgundy. Comes in a 4-liter bottle
for $7.99. And I do plan on drinking it virtually
every night for the rest of my life. As for the
song, I'll give the nod to Nick Cave and the Bad
Seeds for "Brother, My Cup is Empty":

"Brother, my cup is empty and I haven't got a penny
for to buy no more whiskey, I have to go home".

That's like asking what kind of women do you like.

The honest answer is variety is the spice of life . . . unless you're married, then it's the kiss of death.

1 Patron tequila, 100% de Agave. It's not just for breakfast anymore.
2 The Macallan, try to make sure she's at least 18.
(both 1 and 2 are scientifically accepted proof that there is a god)
3 Drambuie
4 Chianti, or a house red in a trattoria
5 Beer, preferably cold. Too many brands to list.

As for the song, Markdog nailed it. No question, brilliant interpretation of Hooker.

Must be getting close to the I'm drunk thread.....

Hm, difficult to answer - right now it would be red wine, preferably some good one from Bordeaux or Cote du Rhone... Beer would be my second favourite, but here in France it just tastes like water!


Belgrade-Bucharest-Budapest-Brno

Carlsberg

And for an appropriate song

"She's Fat, I'm Drunk, It's On" by David Allan Coe or
"What Made Milwaukee Famous (Has Made A Loser Out Of Me)" by Jerry Lee Lewis



Some other genuine drink-related country song titles :

Are You Drinkin With Me Jesus?
Get Off the Table, Mabel (The Two Dollars is for the Beer)
How Can A Whiskey That's 6 Years Old Whup A Man That's 33?
I Can't Pass the Bar, and There's One on my Way Home
I Knew I'd Hit Rock Bottom When I Woke Up On Top Of You.
I'd Rather Have A Bottle In Front Of Me Than A Frontal Lobotomy.
If You Want to Keep the Beer Real Cold, Put it Next to My Ex-Wife's Heart
I'm Gonna Put a Bar in the Back of my Car and Drive Myself to Drink
I'm Gonna Hire A Wino To Decorate Our Home.
Last Night I Went to Bed with a "10" and Woke this Morning with a "2"
She Looks Good Through the Bottom of My Shot Glass
Why Don't We Get Drunk and Screw

During the Depression, poverty-stricken alcoholics would drink what we Americans know by the brand name Sterno. (Is it called that in the UK and elsewhere?)

It's a solid, sort of waxy alcohol-based substance used to create a cooking fire in a can. And when melted, it can be consumed as liquid. Not so good for the health.

Tommy Johnson: "Canned Heat Blues."

Like crack for the 1930's set...

Well I am young yet but of Course the Capt. and Coke.... now this isnt some 2 bit piece of crap trying this for his second time I Have been drinking since 15 and it its my fav. Jack is good but I cant last long enough! And for now its Loving Cup as my fav. song. I just love that song right now with the drinking! Tom

Canned Heat - Tommy Johnson



ROCKMAN

A good bottle of jack D. along with Exile On Main Street is always good.
For all you boppers out there: Listen to Band On The Run (The entire CD) while drinking a few cold bruskies. That's also cool.

JumpingKentFlash

Today: Westmalle Tripel.
Ref: "Woke up this mornin & I got myself a beer"
(or was it beard) by James Douglas "Jim" Morrison.
Guess it wasnt Westmalle though...

A case of Schlitz and the MC5. Talk about old school.
Then of course I could put on Snoop Dog and break out the Kristal.

It is weird how ceratin music brings out a certain palate. I ever listen to soft rock but for some reason this morning, right this moment, I am listening to Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks doing "Silver Springs". What a gorgeous tune! Makes me want to brew tea though...

I have gone off alcohol, because the ensuing headaches really aren't worth it.

But I've always loved the song with the refrain that goes
"One bourbon, one scotch, one beer..."

"One bourbon, one scotch, one beer..." John Lee Hooker.
No, you´re the Ganja Woman, Jo, arent you?
I prefer the headache before psychosis...
(but, as Tosh says; "it´s good for Tubercholosis...")

any miller product or guinness or harp or bass ale.


have a drink on me - ac/dc . try having a drink everytime they say that line in the song. you'll go through 2 beers no problem!

I have been mineral water total since 1992 BUT my fav alcohol song is "Cold Gin" by Kiss.

SD

Whisky and Whisky in the Jar. I prefer Tallisker 10 years old.

Gazza: those song titles are fabulous, but I'm really glad I don't have to listen to the songs.....(And would you satisfy my curiosity and tell me what the 10" to 2" song is about??? Is the composer Mr. Bobbit?)

Baboon Bro: You're a poet. But you don't know it.

i had a beer for breakfast...it was so good, i had one for deesert..."If drinkin' won't kill me (her memory will) by George Jones.......not a big beer drinker, but don't mind a corona once in a while

"deesert" is what you do to your wife when you walk out on her, I believe you mean dessert, Mr. Keringer.

At the moment, all that comes to mind is Tequila by the Pretenders. Usually I don't drink, so I can't name a beverage really.

its a reference to a girl the guy picked up looking great when hes had a few drinks but then in the cold light of day being somewhat "dog rough"

"feeling drunk, juiced up and sloppy"

Milo, NYC
Things are different today

vodka/tonic/lemon no special vodka..cheap date
"99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" NO NOT REALLY!!!!

"I just watch the T.V. and I drink on the couch"

Leonard, I figured you and me would be copacetic on this one. George's best line, from Still Doin Time (In a Honky Tonk prison):

"The ocean of liquor
I drank to forget her
Is gonna kill me
But I'll drink til then"

I have two tall gin martinis every Friday night. Makes the world go away (to quote another song). But I'm a beer-type guy the rest of the week.
