For me (at the moment; subject to change in mood): Single malt: Lagavulin Beer: Westmalle Trippel Wine: geessh... Caymus Cab? Nautilus Savignon Blanc (NZ)
Tried some California cab while listening last nigh: McManis 2001. A little rough, but will be great in a year. A nice chewy, tannin-laden wine that paired nicely, believe it or not, with Dylan.
You're right. The McManis is nice for a 2001. I've got a few bottles and will look forward to breaking them out with some moody tunes. BTW, their Chardonnay is decent, but not as good as the cab (for a nice, reasonable Chardonnay try the 1999 Meridian Reserve).
Ozfly...I bought a case of Benziger chard. that I like a lot. Used to drink Meridian until they got bought by Nestle. Not a good reason, I know! I do like Meridian though, for a reasonable chard. Summer's here and time to stock up on some....
BTW: That McManis opens up nicely after an hour or so, but doesn't hold as long as it should once opened.
Got my screen door open and the smell of roses is wafting in.... wow...sorry for that aside.
For beer its Rolling Rock, Sawtooth Ale, Bud Light, or Petes ale. Hard Stuff, Del Duenos Tequilla. For Foo-Foo drinks, NONE. IM A MAN. I DONT DRINK THOSE! :)
