Default Good (expensive) drinks to order in a casino

Would people mind suggesting drinks (or just liquors) that are extravagant but commonly carried and served at mid-level Strip casinos?

I'm not too familiar with higher-class liquor (Smirnoff/Bacardi is good enough for me day-to-day), and I don't want to search the internet and try to order something too obscure or expensive that they don't have it. I've ordered Grey Goose and Courvoisier, but I'll be in Vegas for a week so I'd like some more varied tastes of the high life.

Suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Patron tequila or Grand Marnier is what I order when in LV. Be careful. Last time I got drunk. You might not want that to happen to you.

If you're a bourbon guy, try Woodford Reserve. Tequilla? Patron Silver.

Or try out quality single malt scotches like Macallan, Balvenie, Lagavullen, etc.

But be careful. I enjoyed so much Macallan in the poker room at Venetian last summer I wound up sleeping on the floor of the bathroom in my suite.

I'd like a PBR, served in a cup of gold.

Sounds good, would be a nice treat compared to the Busch Lite I normally enjoy! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for the suggestions, guys, keep it up.

For those who cannot afford PBR there is always Red White & Blue. I don't know if they still make it but it did leave me with temporary blindness after drinking a case of it after the Phillies won the Series in 1980. Well, it was either that or the hash. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
