Be careful with that. When I first married my wife, she would only touch wine and fruity drinks. One of my in-laws (cursed be his name) introduced her to Jack Daniels once Thanksgiving, in an attempt to cure a cold. My whiskey has not been safe since. To pour salt in my wounds, she's also taken to my beer. She even enjoys my hot mulled mead. Of course, I have not acquired the same taste for her dry wines.

Needless to say, leaving all the whiskey and beer with my wife in the heavy hauler would not be a good idea. God help me if there was more than one wife in that boat. Besides reducing me to a gibbering idiot, I'd have nothing left to drink.
