When I drink it's either sake, mead or just some vodka mixed with energy drink.

Used to be rye, but now I'm obsessed with mezcal. However, mezcal is hard to find where I live, so I generally stick to tequila. How about this: rye for cocktails, tequila for sipping (and of course shooting). If I can get ahold of some mezcal then I typically savor it and try and make it last.

Vodka makes me way too insane, can't drink it anymore.
From my experience and observation, vodka gets people drunk fast and make them say/do the stupidest sh*t ever.

That's the fun of it!

Any time I make mention of it around my mom she feels the need to bring up a time when she came out to the garage to find my friend on the floor & I in a garbage pail with no socks or shoes.

Wine Monopoly is one of the best names for a liquor store I've ever heard.

We've got one called Liquor Barons, which is kind'a funny, and there was a short lived chain back in the 90s called Booze Bandits. I think the name may have ultimately alienated their clientele.

I thought it was lost art. What's it like, beer?

It really depends on the brand, but its mostly wine-like.

I had a really good one when I was visiting Whitby in England which was more like a brandy.

Accurate description of the face he's making, at least, you get extra points for that

I realise I've never addressed the subject so I'll answer it now

When given the choice I usually go with fruity stuff but I don't mind most alcoholic drinks in general, because if I'm drinking anything alcoholic obviously my intent is to get drunk so I won't care about the taste as much.

Margaritas are a personal favourite, though at home wine or beer is the usually-available option. My dad's staff at a motel and when guests leave their alcohol behind, he gets to bring it home, so we tend to have beer around more than anything else, I pretty much always have something to get drunk on if I ever want to. Every once in a while I do those online drinking game things when we have entirely too much beer in the house.

I also really love piƱa coladas and getting caught in the rain ok im sorry i had to

I prefer Matcha lattes more than anything...

But nothing beats hot chocolate with a splash of Pusser's rum after a day of camping or snowshoeing.

I'm not much of a drinker, but I enjoy the occasional rum and Coke!

Hmm where to start? I don't drink often, but when I do- sorry if I sound a bit like a Dos Eches commercial- I tend to either drink fruity drinks or straight wine. Usually vodka, rum, kalua, or tequila-based. I like screwdrivers, daqueris, and mudslides in particular. And pina coladas of course. I also like a bottle of Manschwitz blackberry wine on occasion. Malibu and Dr Pepper, or eggnog heavy on the nog. And Chili's has some killer fruit-infused Margaritas! Only things I won't touch is congiac(sp?) and most beer except Guinness or a few flavors of Sam Adams. Mead is okay. Gotta be honey mead though. Got hammered on screwdrivers on my 21st bday, to the point that I went through almost an ebtire bottle of McCormicks by myself!
