Beer or liquor?

Like the caption says. Beer or liquor, and why? Just curious to why some perfer one over the other, OR BOTH. Right now I prefer beer, only because ive never really only drank liquor. Its always been beer, then maybe some liquor..

According to “them” im considered a heavy drinker. 4-6 beers almost every Saturday and if with friends maybe 12+ . Im actually curious to start drinking liquor, but I want a liquor + water mix. I know alchol consumption is overall bad, but maybe like 3 part water 1 part liquor, is “healthier”. ive had a friend make me a mix of a liquor I can’t remember, mixed with just water after we ran out of beer and it wasn’t bad. But it could’ve just been the beer telling me that.

Any of you water/liquor mix drinkers out there ? Any recommendations?.
