While I prefer craft brews and single malts, I know that I could fill my fridge with Budweiser and it would still be gone by the end of the week. I tried the "buy crap you don't like and you'll moderate" approach but in the end it doesn't work for me. I'll still drink it, albeit slowly, and then go get what I really want when my guard is down. "Hell with it! I'm off the wagon - why punish myself? Let's get the MacAllan 12 and enjoy it!" is what my AV would be telling me.
If you can truly moderate by buying something you don't like then perhaps that is better than being drunk. But then why bother?
Good luck with your decisions. I hope you find something that works for you.
