Old fashioned beer if I’m chilling with the guys, wine if I’m having something fancier. Over the weekend I was chilling at an Irish pub watching the UFC, and stuck with pints of Garage beer, a light lager. Unless I’m on a tropical vacation, I dislike stronger drinks. Then I’ll have a mojito or a sea breeze.
With wine I tend to be much more anal about food pairings. White with fish and chicken, red with meat, etc.
