Greg always says that his favourite kind of wine is beer… And many of our male friends agree with that! Is it true that men like beer and women prefer wine? Or maybe it more depends on nationality? I’ve heard French or Italian people drink lots of wine, Germans or Americans like beer, but with this kind of thinking, I as a Pole, should like vodka, which I DON’T.

So I like wine, every kind of it. It goes well almost with every food and it is good for every occasion, for dinner, party, or just romantic evening with a friend. And, what is worth saying, a glass of red wine every day might be very good for our health.
My favourite one is rose or red semidry but I don’t mind white or even sweet one. In fact once I tasted very sweet cherry wine and it was suprisingly delicious. The last one I tried was the wine direclty from the german winery, which I got from my father. He likes every kind of alcohol, and as he is a frequent visitor in Germany, he always brings me a little gift - a bottle of excellent wine from a local vineyard. I never learned more about wines, the smell bouquet, origin or kind although I like to taste a lot.

What about beer? I don’t mind from time to time. In a hot summer day, a bottle of chilled gold drink might be refreshing But I could not drink it every day. It makes me feel heavy and sleepy and usually I don’t feel good the text day. Although Greg likes beer, his favorite is Irish Guinness which is based on the porter style that originated in London in the early 18th century. It has dark colour and characteristic taste.
Did you know that beer is the world’s oldest alcoholic beverage?
Anyway, he says that beer goes with every food and every occasion. It’s good with meat and sausages, at the party, and of course for the evening with the football match on TV. Probably, I don’t know, because I don’t watch any matches. Also I don’t like the smell of beer, and the only way I can drink it is with raspberry or cherry juice.
They say beer can have a positive impact on our health - especially for the problems with kidneys.

OK. So what about vodka , our national alcohol beverage? In Poland is usually is 40%. Personally I don’t like it and Greg neither. Polish people like to dring vodka with shots, for me the only way to drink it is mixed in a cocktail. It’s neither healthy nor good tasted. The only advantage is that you don’t need to drink a lot of it to feel drunk and nice
