Tea, closely followed by coffee. I'm done with booze. I can't cope with the headaches and heartburn it gives me these days. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Voted coffee. The only three I drink with any regularity are coffee, water(ice cold), and other - Lipton's Citrus Green Tea.
Beer comes next but infrequently. I also love soda and milk but only drink soda these days at cookouts or restaurants. Milk only gets consumed with cereal or baked goods. Nothing like a glass of milk with cake or cookies, etc |

There is even a difference between whiskey and whiskey. I prefer whisky* at the right moment, but I also drink wine and lots of coffee... and I like some cognac now and then. *I usually drink Scotch. One cannot go wrong with the Classic Malts of Scotland, Springbank, Dalmore or Bowmore. My favourite whiskey, as far as I am familiar with it, is the Four Roses Single Barrel, whitch reminds me of a cranked up Metaxa.

I quit alcohol more than half a year ago, my favourite alcoholic drink had been beer (Blanc's draft beer and Weihenstephaner were the best I drank), closely followed by fruit wine (black mulberry, especially). Now my favourite drink is tea with lemon juice and lemon balm leaves. I also drink lots of coffee (bitter black). In short, I voted for tea. |

I voted other. My choice is whisky. That's NOT the same as whiskey. "Whiskey" refers to bourbon and Irish whiskey, "whisky" refers to Scotch. I would have preferred multiple choice though. I also love tea (green tea and oolong), champagne, wine, milk and juice. And "champagne" means the real thing, not just "sparkling wine". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champagne" rel="nofollow - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champagne My poison of choice:  -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

 voted best beer in the world when it came out.. wow how times have changed.We might still be the laughing stock of the world... but at least it isn't for our beer any more. It is far cry from the days when self respecting drunks only drank Whiskey (by the case) for they wouldn't be caught dead being seen with a can of American beer (unless in Texas or Colorado). My fantasy was always to do what several of friends were able to once do.. toss an empty whiskey bottle out the open front door and never see it hit the ground. Never did a chance to do that.. the only time I got face to face with a tornado (saw many from a distance.. only really saw one) I pulled my Firebird underneath an underpass on I-35 got out to seek cover and needless to say... I didn't have a bottle as i left it in the car

| Ah there is also ayran, a Turkish drink made of yogurt. If that is of quality buttermilk, it has no alternative regarding the taste. I know that yogurt is somewhat popular in the world, while ayran is not that known. If you have the chance, I suggest you to try it, though I'm not sure if it would appeal to the taste of most people. An American teacher of mine loved it, while his Finn wife even refused to try it, haha. |

American craft beers are among the finest in the world IMO. It's definitely not Bud Light or Coors.

| German beers are great. I attended an Oktoberfest in the German Embassy a couple of years ago, and there was a German local beer, whose brand I first heard there (and now forgot). It was far better than most of the beers I tasted in Turkey. |

oh I'll give a shout out to German beers... and and German waitresses and the trouble both can get you into hahah.. I once nearly missed my connecting flight to Raff in Rome for I had discovered the Munich airport bar... German beer.. pretzels... and hot as the sun waitresses with the that perfectly accented English that could give a corpse a stiffie.. umm hmm. Needless to say was enjoying a 4th or 5th when suddenly I heard thelast call for my flight... needless to say I threw a 100 euro bill and the table and did my best OJ or else I would have had one hell of time explaining that to Raff how I missed my flight with a multiple hour layover ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

This beer, by the way, is only available at Hövelpforte, an excellent restaurant in Dortmund.  It can be bought in 2-liter bottles there.

One will get you a million you have not tasted Hövelbräu yet. It would probably change your mind. As I said, you can only buy it at that restaurant.

As I heard, Germany has "biergarten"s, where beers are served only when fresh as they have no preservative ingredients. Perhaps the beer you mentioned is only served there as it would spoil if not served within hours. Just a guess. |

I wasn't planning to go for a challenge, but we have some pretty awesome bread culture too. Very diverse and some of them are extremely tasty. Our fabricated breads should be among the worst in the world, though.

| I have no idea and/or knowledge about it. But ours is VERY diverse and some of them taste like heaven. Turkey is not good at documenting things and we lack some reverence towards our traditional values. I strongly guess that perhaps hundreds of our bread types are forgotten in history. Yet, there's still a lot. You have to go to their original places, for some real traditional ones. |
