However, as a rule I try to avoid those types of beer because all the preservatives ruin the taste for me. Okanagan Springs beers are great too, but I think they're more of a micro-brew style, I know they don't put any preservatives in their stuff.

    Not a fan of Rye? I used to drink Crown Royal (and to a lesser extend Jack Daniels, which I know is different) like it was going out of style when I was a kid. Now I stick to vodka, the hangovers are much easier to handle.

    Well as a one time bartender and liquor snob, I can safely say Crown Royal has pulled the greatest PR ploy in the history of booze. Canadian Whiskey is usually blended and to me lesser quality than single batch. Crown puts it's bottle in a purple velvet bag and has convinced a lot of people it is a top shelf whiskey. It has a very smooth and to ME a rather watered down flavor so it appeals to a lot of drinkers. I do like a rye whiskey from time to time but much prefer a single batch bourbon to a blended whiskey.

    To me, there is nothing like a good Talisker, my favorite scotch whiskey and by far. I also dig a lot the Cao Ila or the Laphroaig, some of the finest malts produced in Good ol' Scotland I am not too fan of the Canadian whiskeys neither, we produce some very good rye whiskey over there but to me, it's hard to beat the Scots at that game. Santori makes some quite wicked whiskey too but... Highlands prevail
    As for Vodka, till you haven't drink a Stolichnaya Elit, a Ultimat or an Imperia, there will always lack something in the life of one who loves vodka but haven't tasted these blends
