Oh.... Red wines... Zinfandels and Pinot Noirs.
And, yes, according to my roomie who is an oenephile, as well as various reports in Wine Spectator, etc., the movie "Sideways" has had some noticeable influence on wine buying habits over the past few months. Restaurants and bars are evening holding "Sideways" Pinot Noir tasting nights.
As for white wines... Chardonnays - as long as they're steel-aged. If I want to taste wood, I'll chew on a branch. And I'm a big fan of Sancerres - great with salmon. Pinot Grigios too.
Beers - I used to dislike dark beers on principle. Whatever principle that was I have no idea. But dark beers are fine with me now. Yeungling Lager or Black & Tan are standbys. But then there's also Sam Adams, Stella Artois, and Heineken.
And, yes, I really do only average about 25 alcoholic beverages a YEAR(!!!).
