As for beer, I prefer Brutweiser (but it's rare because it's expensive), Torin, and, as a last resort, Obolon.
Cognac is expensive, and anything cheaper than 500 [currency unit] is more likely cognac spirit.
In general, I prefer red wine.
I also enjoy "Otvertka" [a type of cocktail].
Regarding alcoholism, if you have common sense, alcohol is always good; if you don't, you'll end up in an unpleasant situation even without alcohol. I recently watched a political program about vodka, and someone said, "If doctors recommend 50 grams, then our doctors must be alcoholics!":D
