Pabst would be so much easier...
It's all going to depend on who you are bringing it to and what they drink. If all they drink is red, they would be happy with everything. If they consider blue to be their go to variety, they would not be happy with less than blue probably. If they don't drink whiskey, or don't drink at all they would wonder why you picked that. There's no right answer unless you really know what they like.
