Of course, in French, beer and vodka ARE female (la biere, la vodka), and wine and whisky male. And I can't think of them in the opposite sex as a result... Love them all (well, beer not so much these days, but on a hot day...) but am more of a man's gal, wine and whisky. And I misspelt Lagavulin on my comment, too. Tsk.
