The hygiene thread sparked my interest:
What coffee and beer do you guys prefer? Depending on how many people prefer what, I might just have to try it.
Heres mine:
Coffee: Folgers Black Silk.. The dark blend. I usually make it with 3 scoops of coffee to 4-5 cups of water. I dont add any sugar cream etc. I like my coffee dark. I never really got into the fancy stuff found at Starbucks. A local coffee shop had a really good coffee shake, but that was about as fancy as I got. I took the GF there last week only to find it was closed and now a law firm. Its sad because that was where I took her on our fist date almost 3 years ago.
Kona coffee is good if you can find some locally with a high "Kona" content.. Some say thats still a joke, but its all we have here sadly. Most grocery stores sell it has a blend that contains at least 50% or whatever. The best coffee I have ever had was in Hawaii and I didn't even consider myself a coffee drinker at the time.
Beer: Let me start by saying I think I have a slightly alcohol allergy. If I have anything over 7%, my face gets flushed. Apparently a study was done and like 1 of 4 people this happened to had heart disease.. and I have it in my family unfortunately. So anything that isn't light I try to limit myself.. I dont get the flushed face with light beers at all.
Like my oil and filter preference, it all depends on my mood. I dont just stick with one beer. Life is too short.
I love IPA's.

Harpoon.
My girlfriend and I love Guiness Drought, but it has to be out of the cans with the nitrogen capsules. (Ive always been told any girl who drinks Guiness is worth holding onto. Lol) Framboise, which is Frensh for raspberry, is a raspberry flavored beer and slightly "feminine" sounding, but is very delicious. It comes in wine bottles too and can be had for roughly $10-$12 a bottle. We aren't too worldly, but the GF and I drink it together after dinner at times. These are the only beer interests we share.
I also like light beers, but I have a hard time stomaching Bud Light for whatever reason. Budweiser is a good beer for outdoor social events IMO. I can have a few with my food and feel fine too regarding my "allergy." I prefer bottles, but I wont think twice about taking a can either.
Corona, Dos Equis and other light Mexican beers are pretty good too.
Free beer is good beer. Take a few (if they have enough.) and be appreciative to the host.
