for those of us that carry booze, what are some of the "campfire libations" you like to hike with. I typically like Jameson but sometimes will mix it up a little.

AH HA!! A post I like!! RUM matey - high proof - fast and light - - now, of course if you want to sherpa it in for me, I'd enjoy a little wine - thanks.
That's one way to stay out of towns.
After a lot of thought on this, one should not carry any! but I sometimes argue with myself.... so here is the rub... practical idea would be Maker's Mark sippin Bourbon.... if available - top quality moonshine, smooth for cleaning wounds and drying out fungus foot. Yea small hip pint bottle. Forget Everclear - sucks!
Yea I am with the SOUTH in heart. ,,,,, Hard to understand when the owl is from Paoli?
Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.

Sailor Jerry is always a good rum choice.
Dewar's White Label. Depending on how many days, either a 4oz or 8oz nalgene flask.
crown royal with a splash of cold spring water...also we usually bring some vodka and mix with kool-aid, really weak kool-aid, either cherry or lemonade
strawberry stoli vodka- mixes very well with tang. Smooth enough warm drinks without ice are not a problem.
Maybe I'm just a lightweight (or a moocher) but a half size nalgene of rum can get me at least 150 miles if I have a sip every other night or so
I will admit that the plastic travels of Evan Williams are awesome
i've carried a 12 pak of beer out of town a couple times in my collaspable water bag with a bag of ice in it, usually for no more than 1-3 miles out of town :-)

I hiked with 2 thru hikers about 200 miles in '08 who carried 24 beers and 24 Hot Dogs between them from Linden, VA to Sam Moore Shelter -- 22 miles!!
im a jim beam kinda guy myself. last time i packed it in, i got pretty cozy with a small bottle on the 4th of july last year. maybe a little too cozy for my own good.

A half gallon of old crow fits perfectly inside 3 20 oz. vitamin water bottles. Just so ya know.
Cruzon black strap rum,or port wine,in one of those goatskin sacks.
get my corn from a jar..
I'm a Jager guy. A little sip tucks me in and keeps my toes warm all night.
