I'm into local microbrew stuff, so I guess that would be the US on the tops for me.

Where is Denmark? And what about Scotland? If it's not made in Scotland, it isn't Scotch Whisky. Your poll excludes Scotch entirely. :mad:

Tequila - Mexico?

Besides, Beer tastes like p*ss.

Deutschland und United States.

Karl Strauss makes one of my favorites, Red Trolley. Yes it's a local brew but I'd give a tick to Germany for his Vaterland.
Code to the left of him, code to the right of him, code in front of him compil'd and thundered. Programm'd at with shot and $SHELL. Boldly he typed and well. Into the jaws of C. Into the mouth of PERL. Debug'd the 0x258.

...What? Were you drunk when you posted this? I don't understand what you're saying.

Scotch whisky is Scotch whisky. It's the distilled fermentation of malted barley. Irish whiskey is similar, only less earthy than Scotch because peat is not used to make it.

As for your "American imitations", Canadian whiskey is a blend of corn, barley and rye. Bourbon is made with a sour mash of mostly corn, with some wheat, rye and malted barley. Tennessee whiskey is similar to bourbon, only it's charcoal-filtered and aged in casks.

Note the common element: corn. Corn being indiginous to North America. Corn being the ingredient the Europeans didn't know existed when they invented Scotch, meaning that American whiskeys are not cheap knockoffs as you suggested.

I like beers from Belgium and Germany a lot, but a lot of domestic brands brew those styles, and tend to be more...inventive (i.e. Rogue).

All alcohol can get you a hang over. It's all about what you do before and after you're done drinking.

Bzzt. Hangover is caused by alcohol, so unless SC has no alcohol, it will result in hangover.

More specifically, it's caused by dehydration as a result of comsuming alcohol.

Dont get me started on wines. I could make an entire thread about those....... I'm bigger on wine than anything else. My favorites being Spanish Rioja and German Riesling... with a few California ports thrown in for my woman.

Strongbow is horribly sweet compared to other ciders. The taste is far too overpowering.

pfft. Belvedere Vodka owns you. Poland ftw.

Also, my parents have a bottle of Gdansk Zlotofka I'd like to try. Kind of like Goldschlager, but Polish and supposedly delicious.

Kangaroo urine is a compliment for Fosters.

I'm a big fan of the Czech Pilsner. Outside of that, there are some fine, inexpensive beers made here in Canada. They have suited my university budget nicely.
