Top 5 lists

A friend and I were recently discussing out favorite beers...so, I decided to make a list of my favorite, as well as a list of my favorite mixed drinks. Here goes:

Beer

1. Sam Adams - Gotta go with a domestic, and Sam Adams is hands down the best
2. Hoegaarden - What's up with bars that have Hoegaarden on tap and run out of lemon wedges? Or Blue Moon and no oranges? They should have their alcohol licenses revoked
3. Sierra Nevada - West coast representation
4. Heineken - A good, all-around beer...good at home, good at bars, good at clubs...and not to mention one of the cooler bottles out there....the keg can is overrated though
5. Brookyln Lager - I had trouble with this one...eliminating Red Hook, Pacifico, Killians, and Yuengling amongst others was not an easy thing to do emotionally...so the tiebreak goes to a local beer from the city that will always be my 2nd home (well, 3rd...vegas is 2nd)

Mixed Drinks

1. Grey Goose on the rocks (preferably Citron) - Goes down smooth, no messy mixers to deal with, and it gets me pretty trashed pretty quickly
2. Captain and Coke - OK, fine, Captain and Diet Coke
3. Gin and Tonic - Only if it's Tanqueray...if it's Sapphire, drop it down to #4
4. Citron and Soda - gotta thank Sujit for this one
5. Makers on the rocks - another tough call...it's become a recent favorite...ask me again in a month and it will probably have changed

Have a good weekend everyone

good beer list...though i'd replace sierra with red stripe and brooklyn lager with dos equis... sorry dude but imports are just better.

although since i moved i can only get heinies anyway so what's the point.

i agree with shashank. not a sierra nevada fan myself. i need to newcastle on the list for sure and then probably andersen amber and boddingtons. sam adams is a good daily though...
