How about you:

I don't drink at all. Have always thought alcohol was gross and I've never seen the point in drinking it when there are so many other nice things to drink.
1Whén I drink, I drink red wine, but this only happens about once or twice a month, and I only drink one or two glasses.
2i don't drink alcohol either. i also don't see the point in it. i don't like the taste nor the way it makes me feel...its expensive too.
3wine for sure
4I'm a beer girl, but I like wine too
5It usually depends on where I am
6I love wine.
7I drink a whole spectrum of things!
I rather like liquor because if I'm drinking socially I get more bang for less calories (i.e. two Rum and Coke vs. eight beers).
I also love Mike's Light Hard Cranberry Lemonade. They're 100 calories, which is much less than a lot of other b*tch beers.
Lastly my real favorite is Sangria! Yum!
I'm still a college student and I won't lie, I enjoy drinking on the weekends occasionally - but it's maybe a once a month, and usually when we get together and play poker until 5am. So nothing life-threatening and not too destructive to my health!
8My 'cheat' night is Sunday nights when I go out with my boyfriend and his friends. I drink white wine. I feel its effects after 2 glasses,and with 3 I am good.
9Its not as low calorie as some other drinks, but I do NOT want to drink diet coke and rum. so gross. its my little reward anyways
I try and try to drink wine (and trust me my Italian family trys too) but I just can't stand the taste of it, I'm a beer girl and think I always will be
10neither. Rum!
11mmm bring on the miller lite
12It depends, it would be beer when i'm having a "social gathering" with friends, and wine when i go out to the restaurant, but white wine only, i don't like red wine
13i vote for beer but really i don´t like either of them, i prefer vodka
14Wine over beer, vodka over wine
15definitely wine but i do drink an occasional beer here and there. ;o)
16as much as I love beer, I've never gotten such a strong rush of distinct sensations from it. Nothing beats a good dinner and a great bottle of wine.
17Beer with most foods, wine with others. Wine makes me too sleepy to have regularly though. Even one glass and I feel a bit drowsy.
18Both!
19Wine. I hate beer it tastes disgusting. Plus wine is good for the heart if you have one glass a day or every other day. I don't drink very often but when i do i drink red or white wine.
20Wine if possible, especially a deliciously sweet red.
21I like vodka martinis!
22wine, i've never liked beer
23I like both but not light beer or white wine (unless it's a nice dry white). It needs be a deep, dark beer and full-bodied red wine, lots of flavor. Or vodka, or gin...
24Wine of course.
25It depends. I didn't vote, because for the most part i drink wine, but every once in a while, i am just in the mood for an ice cold beer.
In fact, has anyone tried Sunset Wheat beer? It is brewed by Leinenkugel's, and it is delish! I tasted it at harris teeter yesterday, and bought a 6 pack. DELISH! YUM! I didn't htink I liked beer!
26and, i am going to be honest. I drink weekly, for the most part. i have cut out drinking on work nights, because i don't want to get in trouble you know, but, on the weekends, i have a bottle of wine normally.
as said by someone in the Office: "This is my last hoorah...I made a New Year's Resolution not to drink anymore...during the week..." haha
27I drink both, it depends on the situation & who I'm with.
28assuming my only beverage choices were wine & beer, then wine would probably win, since the only beer i drink is guinness.
29Beer. I love all kinds....but Guinness.
30i like a cold beer occasionally but if i drink more than a few i get a dull headache. liquor is fun when you're out with the girls and want to get silly and sing karaoke or something. but liquor is like poison for your body so i try not to drink it too often. in general, most of the time i just have a few glasses of wine at home with my man. i just like trying out different kinds of wine. and it's easier to sip slowly and enjoy the taste
31beer tastes like tomatoes !
32i've said it so many times and only one person has agreed with me. hahaha.
i hate beer.
i prefer hard liquor. as far as this poll goes, beer for me! i'm a college student!
33I can find a fiew different tastes in beer, but tomatoes??
34I didn't vote..I don't drink wine or beer..Bottled water is my favorite drink, and when I've friends over or go to social gatherings, I drink martinis..Different kinds depends on what mood I'm in.
35wine, i dont like beer.
36I used to hate the taste of alcohol untill I went to Italy; then I gained an appreciation!
37I love beer, it's filling and refreshing and doesn't make me too loopy.
Wine gets me drunk VERY quickly, and while I love it with dinner, I feel so out of it during and the next day. I wish I didn't react so strongly to it.
38Im more of a mixed drinks girl, but of those, wine!
39Wine is more classic but however, I don't drink lots of alcohol. It just mess up my diet.
40Most definintely wine! I LOOOOOVE wine! It is the perfect drink for any occasion.
41Beer! Good beer, that is!
42HATE wine, not a big fan of beer either. I'll have a Corona once in a blue.
43i can't stand the taste (and smell) of beer
44Vodka (black cherry) + Diet Tonic! mmmm
45I'm a beer person
46Beer taste bad, and I don't drink wine!
