I’m only 20, so I’d have to say that my favorite beer is Root Beer, A&W brand to be exact.

I love reading about food and food pairings though : )

My favorite beer today is Sierra Nevada Wheat Beer. As for wine I love Pinot Grigio, but don’t have one favorite winery’s PG, yet.

This book would be perfect for our household - my husband is a beer snob (dark beers mostly) and I am just starting to explore wine (as well as cultivating an appreciation for a wider range of beers). I hope I win one!

I rarely drink wine, but I’ve really enjoyed a few Italian pinots and sangiovesi, California reds can be very pleasant, and who doesn’t love a fine Champagne for that special occasion!

Though I am in my mid-30s I just recently began drinking alcohol (before I abstained due to a religious taboo). So far I’ve enjoyed several wines, though I seem to prefer a cabernet sauvignon. A good friend makes a tasty black & tan (guiness and harp) for me whenever we have dinner together.
