I make my own beer, 6 gallons at a time. I'm getting ready to make a batch of pale ale. I order my hops and grains from a company in Australia. I have a couple of 20 somethings step sons and they like my beer, and considering how much they have drunk, they are not being polite to me. They will drink as much as I can make.

I don't drink hard liquor very much, that's why my knowledge of that subject is somewhat limited, but my friendly members of this board are adding to my knowledge base......

I drink 1-3 glasses of wine a day, 1-3 beers a year, probably 5-7 vodka cocktails a week (martinis--Grey Goose, extra dry, straight up, with a twist, maybe a Greyhound or a White Russian once in a while), and 1-3 cognac snifters or whiskey glasses (2-3 oz.'s, a healthy pour) a day. A little champagne and a margarita or two round out my alcohol consumption over a given year.

Glad you keep memory of our Vinho Verde. Served cold it's a great summer wine.
As to the "Bagaço" or "Agua Ardente", in cold winter nights, nothing is better to warm up.
Now that I'm living in Grece, I found something very similar called "Tzipuro". Very good!
