0003486: custom stockpile with food/plant drinks only is not the same as food stockpile with food/plant drinks
when you build a custom stockpile ('p'-'c') then set only plant drinks, it will never get stocked up.
when you do food stockpile ('p'-'f'), then block all foods and set plant drinks only, they will place the drinks on it.

these two should clearly be(have) the same.
i believe the same issue applies to other goods as well.
see above

Not a bug - custom stockpiles don't include barrels by default, and drinks have to be stored in barrels.

then this default clearly makes no sense.

Did you enable the Additional Options category?

No reply from OP.

I'm with Quietust. A custom stockpile is just that, custom. It doesn't know if you want bins or barrels (or nothing) and defaults to no selection at all, which does make sense.
