I've been liking "K", it's a cider beer in an all black bottle. It's actually ruined me on beer as I can't drink beer now without thinking it's too bland. My g/f raves about this beer called "Paulsner" IIRC, and no, it's not "Pilsner".

Go with Pearl vodka. IMO it is better thatn Grey Goose, at approx. %60 of the cost. Highly recommended.
All I drink anymore is vodka and club soda. It is a very clean, predictable drunk that leaves an absolute minimum of a hangover. (Completely unklike Jager. I have 9 stitches in my face because of Jager.) Think about it: your body needs water to metabolize alcohol. Why use a sugary mixer (which will only dehydrate you further, and increase the hangover factor) to mask the taste of a poorly-refined spirit (which will also cause hangover)? IF you HAVE to be on the cheap, run the vodka through a Britta filter a dozen times and you have something completely flavorless and as smooth as water.
Edit: you -> your

i typically enjoy: Jaegermeister, Vodka.
dont really enjoy whiskey, and rum is meh to me...
everclear is fine, but expensive.
Have you had gin before? This is less medicine tasting than most gin, doesn't taste like you just performed oral on a pine tree knob.
He won't like the price tag of Bombay Saphire if he thinks Everclear is expensive.....
If you're tryin to drink on the cheap, Seagrams Dry Rum costs about $20 or less for a giant 1.75L bottle. Bombay Saphire is usually around $50 for a giant bottle.
everclear is expensive in terms of: it tastes like ass expensive.
a giant bottle for 50, makes me assume that a fifth of Bombay Sapphire is going to be about $30?? so $10 more than jaeger...
and no, ive never had Gin before.

Ahh Gotcha ... yea a fifth runs for under $30 here.
There's no way to know if you're going to like it or not without actually trying it.
Personally, I like my gin mixed with some tonic. I usually prefer a 1 to 1 ratio. Gin has a sort of sharp taste to it that people usually either love or hate. I would recommend trying a gin'n'tonic at a bar before you go off and buy a bottle of it at the liquor store. That way if you don't like it, you've only wasted 1 drink rather then an entire bottle. Jaeger is good stuff, and I don't drink Vodka so I can't comment on that.
