Vodka has taken a hit in perception due to the watered down fruit infused product being marketed recently.

we were at a big pak once (MOAP 1?) in manhattan and trim was driving from wichita and asked if someone could pick him up some low/medium level vodka (I'm assuming expecting smirnoff or something) and, I think it was rick daris, got him a handle of viaka.

It was either MOAP1 or eggpak and I was already there.  Pete was driving in and asked what we needed when I put in my order.  Expected viaka-ish and was pleased.  And, it gave us viakoffman.

Also, if this past week's Trim-related posts on goEMAW are an accurate reflection, I'm a raging alcoholic.

George Dickle is pretty damn good even though it doesn't cost much.

I am not a whiskey guy though, as in I don't defer to it.

Love Whiskey and Bourbon its what i always drink.

Have yet to try scotch.

I'm a poor 20 year old college kid so: I get what ever is on sale. Evan Williams is what i have at my place right now. Really like Jim Beam and Jack Daniels.

also I love some of the flavored Whiskey's the Jack D Honey and Red Stag is what i was drinking on NYE and in Dallas for the Cotton bowl.

one time, I was slightly inebriated and decided to use franzia as a mixer for kentucky deluxe. It was a winesky. It was not delicious.

I feel anything above Johnny Walker Red level is drinkable.  Anything below is really  :barf:.  Anything better is nice, but not necessary.

kentucky gentleman

The Gentleman and I used to have some good times together.

I'd like to see a demographic breakdown of vodka guys versus whiskey guys. Based upon my friends, it seems like there should be some differentiation, but I'm not sure what factors would play into it.

Love Whiskey and Bourbon its what i always drink.

Try some Johnny red sometime. Not too expensive. Get it on the rocks with water or soda.

Yeah, a good way to start is to get it on the rocks, and add a lot of water, then incrementally lessen the water.

Evan Williams single barrel is really, really good for the money. I'd argue better than JD Single Barrel, which is really good.

Thought I'd get try something new tonight, tried some Russell's Reserve 10 yr.  It's pretty good, not as great as the EW or JD though

Any Scotch will do. I'm not particular, just love the taste. Of course, if you offer me JW Blue? Different story...nothing better.

Bourbon? Nothing but Jack Black.

Not an accomplished whiskey-man, but I do enjoy a glass on the rocks from time to time. Jameson is what I've been drinking lately. 
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
