For me (at the moment; subject to change in mood): Single malt: Lagavulin Beer: Westmalle Trippel Wine: geessh... Caymus Cab? Nautilus Savignon Blanc (NZ)
Lately, I've been partial to Glenmorangie single malt scotch with a sherry wood finish. On a cold day a nicely aged Port is also good, especially if I have a fire going. After a day of backcountry skiing, I like sitting down to some music and a glass of Drambuie.
The music calls its own drink. Jazz, such as Bobo Stensen (War Orphans or Serenity), suggests a Scotch. Jazz-funk like Bill Frisell's Unspoken beckons a Vodka Martini. Tool's Lateralus likes a Gin drink of some kind--or perhaps the clarity of a Don Julio Tequila (Blanco). Frifot (Scandinavian Folk) wants a lager. Bach's keyboard concertos go well with red wine. The Prokofiev piano concertos also like a couple of DJ Tequila Blanco shots.
