As allready said by another poster. This is Belgian. You're threading on thin ice mate! We Belgians are very proud on our beers! :D

Anyway, I don't frequent bars often, but when I do I usually pick a beer I never drank before. In the cellar at the moment I have (apart from the usual pils beer in the fridge):

Last one is my favourite kind of beer: Geuze. It's a sour beer, a blend of lambic beers (which is the basis of the fruit beer you see quoted above), aged on oak casks, that may only be produced in and around Brussels (due to a certain type of wild yeast that can only be found there). It's an aquired taste for sure (unless you start with the sweetened versions), but it's a damn fine beverage, sometimes nicknamed Brussels Champagne with reason.

At home, after a hard days work I like to relax with a single malt whiskey from time to time, but mostly Port wine. I always have a collection of around 6 different bottles, from 10 year blends to LBV's to just regular blended Tawny's. I have one 2001 vintage at the moment, but planning on letting it age further for some years. My favourites in the '10 to 20 euros department' are:

Soda: Caffeine-free Coke Zero
Hot: Harney & Co. Decaf Earl Grey tea
Cocktail: Negroni*

*Plymouth or Martin Miller Westbourne Gin, Carpano Antica for the sweet vermouth

I don't drink soda or tea for energy, I drink it for taste with food, so there's no reason to consume caffeine that my body doesn't need.

so good.

Pretty dangerous to drink though as it has 35% ABV. Sometimes I have suddenly noticed that the bottle is almost empty and I am fucking drunk.

The bar I frequent has gotten to know my taste (I love lambics!) and gave me one of these last night (I think mine had a yellow label?). Delicious!

I originally got into sours via Bruery's stuff, which is damn good if you're okay with an overseas imposter. Once you get over how different sours taste theyre incredible, and full of so much complexity!
 

La Croix lime flavored sparkling water. I drink at least 3 a day. I quit soda cold turkey almost a year ago and this stuff made it happen. It's delicious and I don't have to feel bad about drinking it because it's water.
 
1. Coffee (with milk)
2. Water
3. Tea (preferably green, houji or genmai)
4. Coke (lately I prefer Life)
5. Dark Beer
 
Coffee (any kind and lots of it)

Water (from the fountain or sink into my reusable bottle)

Beer (homebrew or craft beer)

and Bourbon (right now I'm digging on Bulleit)


Pretty much every day, in that order. Bourbon optional.

Milk tea w/pudding

Ten Ren has the best boba milk tea imo.

haha, Half and Half is nice, but good lord their cups with the short and cubby size is so annoying to place in car cup holders.

btw, I used to work in a milk tea shop before, basically you don't want to drink too much of those. the milk in the milk tea and the bobas are very fattening, especially with the high sugar content. I usually only get the green tea now a days.

oh yeah, my fav drinks are green tea and Guinness.
 
Water mostly, Izze for carbonated.

For alcoholic mixed drink, moscow mule.

For straight liquor, a good vodka for shots, or a good bourbon for sipping.
