I am a simple guy. After the hunt, a small glass of good Bourbon Whiskey, such as Knob Hill or Old Fitzgerald, neat.

How dare so few of you mention bourbon and neglect to precede it with Maker's Mark.

Beer needs to be Belle's Ale or Blue Moon.

In cold, snowy weather: Peppermint Schnapps and Hot Chocolate.
I am a fan of Scotch, on the rocks/neat if it's chilly outside. Almost any Glen will do.
My mom is French, and growing up beer was drank at a rather tepid temperature. It kind of stuck with me, I dont like "ice cold" beer.
I like red wine, however it is like liquid headache/migraine in a bottle for me, so I cannot touch it. It is a shame.

Tea or milk with dinner; no exeptions to the rule.

Libation after dinner: The tradition is any avalible whiskey and ice water. I'd personally go with a nice spiced Rum, but who am I to argue with tradition; especially when I'm not buyin'.

Just back to the cabin after the hunt, usually Gatorade or coffee, depending on whether we were driving or standing.
When we're sitting around the wood stove with our feet up, usually whiskey (Canadian Hunter) and Coke.

Beers - Coors Light and Yuengling Lager
(You Killian Red fans have got to try Yuengling if you ever visit PA. Yuengling is america oldest brewery based in Pottsville PA, and Yuengling Lager is an amber beer that IMHO taste better than Killians Red, and it hasn't changed much in almost 100 years so it like your drinking the same thing your great grandparents drank)

We also bring various Irish whiskey and Baileys (for Irish Coffee)

My Usual PA Deer hunt. We get to the cabin 2 days before deer (rifle) hunting season and have a Feast and party that night, for some in our group we only see each other once a year so we get caught up on old time, and stay up late. The next day we scout out and plan our hunt usually drinking only water, coffee, coke or gatorade, some fighting a slight hangover.
the day before the hunt is usually short since everyone wakes up late and goes to bed early. No one drinks to excess when the hunting starts. Usually we make Irish coffees when we come back and it is real cold outside, and we celebrate when someone gets a deer and have a few beers, but nothing major, we are all superstitious that if we drink too much beer the deer will get the scent and stay away. On Wednesday we have another mini feast and party, since some of the young guys (me included) have to go back to work, while the old timers (my dad included) are retired and can hunt the entire season. Nobody in my group drinks then drives, and usually all the rifles are put away before we start drinking. A few in my group don't drink, but usually make up for it with food. Steak, Chicken, Pork Chops, sometimes even seafood, deli Meat for sandwiches and lots of sweets. Between Thanksgiving, Hunting, and Christmas, I easily put on 5 to 10 pounds.
