What\'s your favourite post-sail tipple?

Been reading quite a few cruising blogs/websites of late, and the subject of booze seems to crop up an awful lot /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

What 's the favoured apres-sail drink?

Mine's a scotch (nice of you to offer...) - preferably a good malt.
 
Re: What\'s your favourite post-sail tipple?

Depends on what the passage was like..
If it was a windy, wet express ride then a MG and Coke.
After a day of racing a pint satisfies a thirst
After a summers day cruising then a very cold glass of Chablis does the trick...

When we stagger back across the field and sit on the blue bench, it'll normally be a glass of wine or if it's a bit later and still nice and warm, a G&T

After the interesting problem skipper+problem heart+?burial-at-sea/duff engine/kiel canal/enormous ship combo + three day sail to Copenhagen, dunno what I was drinking, but I jolly well needed it, and quite a bit of it.

Whisky or absinthe. Or vodka, or rum, or brandy or gin. Maybe wine, or beer. Not fussed, really.

Wine with dinner then a Gin & Tonic or two, wine omited with arrivals after dinner. If feeling sorry for myself I might have a Whisky Mac (must be Crabbies) or a Rusty Nail (Whisky and Drambuie). I might be persuaded on occasion to have a Paddy's or a Jameson or a single malt. I don't drink beer except draught in places I trust, definitely not canned or bottled stuff. Oh and a rum and coke occasionally is nice.

But then I don't really drink much, just the odd social tipple...

Beer if thirst needs quenching.
G&T as a sundowner
Southern Comfort Reserve with ice as a nightcap (not available in UK but worth hunting out if in the US or Far East)

No such thing as nice Heineken. Nasty industrial fizzwater.

I'll take a pint of Ol' Doggobbler from the Tubercular Badger Brewery at Great Buggering in the Wolds.

Ah! A fine drop of stuff is that! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Beer (proper beer) if hot; a good dark rum if cold. Nice glass of wine with dinner. A good malt for afters.

Is that close to Lower Shagging on the Wolds, or am missing my mark?
