Beer with your great grandfather

Whiskey with any random WW2 soldier (not a related to you)

Wine with a Roman Senator

Mead with a viking
I never got to meet any of my great grandfathers. So I'd pick that. But which one? Also, would I be able to understand the German one? Or for that matter, the English one? Or the Irish one? (I think maybe Irish, by the name.) And I have no idea what the other one was, but the name sounds kind of German.
For the sake of this thread, lets stipulate that communication is not an issue

Beer and whiskey with Patsy Cline isn’t an option? That gal knew how to cuss and drink.
Good point, I should have made one for country singers.

OK...

Whiskey with Hank Williams senior

Tequila with Johnny Cash (in his drinking days)

Wine with Dolly Parton
I'll take whiskey with Hank. Mainly because I don't care for tequila, wine or Dolly Parton.
Might be the most fun to drink bourbon with Hank and Johnny.

Well I was wondering. Because some of them spoke English and I’m willing to bet that the others learned pretty damn quick once they got off the boat. But damn. I miss my dead grandparents. All of them were so nice. But now I am old and I am the grandma. But I identify as sixteen. Unfortunately, I had railroad tracks on my teeth back then, but my skin was mostly clear. Poor Grumpy’s teeth were straight but he had teen-aged acne. Of course, I didn’t know him back then. He got married to the beast right around the time I was graduating from junior high.

Ava Gardner. And I probably wouldn't dare touch her.

I haven't seen a single blond in Germany. I only saw booze, despair, old people, old man named Gunther and a road sign saying "beware of genital herpes". I might be wrong, but everything sounds like genital herpes in German language.

Wait, can we go back to dating beautiful ladies in our dreams?

None apply to me. Jason Momoa. Drinking booze out of a coconut. A pineapple would also suffice. On a deserted island I once lived on. I don't care what we talk about.

Actually, talking to a Viking woman might be interesting. We could talk about what awesome pigs men are, always belching and farting and tossing their soiled undies about. Or perhaps talk someone such as Helen Keller (or Annie Sullivan), Harriet Tubman or Sojourner Truth. Marie Curie. Eleanor Roosevelt. Dolly Madison. (how the heck did you keep your cool when the White House was in flames, and keep all your people from panicking and hitting the road?)
