For me (at the moment; subject to change in mood): Single malt: Lagavulin Beer: Westmalle Trippel Wine: geessh... Caymus Cab? Nautilus Savignon Blanc (NZ)
Been listening to some older jazz recordings of Hank Mobely. Fantastic. Goes great with Balvenie Double Wood single malt which Costco here has for $37!
Rock - Dogfish head 90 minute IPA Classical or laid back Jazz - a nice red (Don Melchor cab is a good one) Big band - Gin and tonic with a squeeze of fresh lime. Salsa - Milagro tequila with 1/2 an orange and lime with a splash of Cointreau.
Hands down the best beer in the world to me. If you folks havent tried it and can get it, I would give it a try. coming from the northwest I like my beer a bit hoppy.
Bridgeport Blue Heron Pale ale
Great less thick beer and it's not as hoppy and very smooth.
Pjudice: to get more specific yet, my preferences can depend on the type of music:
Some older jazz (Hank Mobley, Sonny Stitt) - Scotch Crisp/clean jazz vocals (e.g., Tierney Sutton) - chardonnay Smoky jazz vocals - Scotch Chamber music - red or white wine Rock - beer
Wow...10th anniversary of this thread! I was listening to some Christine Tobin the other day, which inspired me to make a beeline to the Lagavulin 16 yr old. Something about jazz and Scotch...
I used to run a restaurant a while ago called Evoe, and since we had had create an identity we named this drink the same

@Tigmag1, your post inspired me to get some Blantons and it is very good, very unique. If you like single barrel, you should try Balvenie 15 single barrel, best dollar for dollar scotch you can get.
