I don’t think I’ve been “drunk” in at least 10 years or so. But, I tend to have one drink most days after work.
1-2 beers a week I think. Couple weekends in a year with maybe six or so portions.
1 beer about 5 days per week. Second beer maybe once or twice a month. Haven’t been drunk in probably 5 years or so.
Essentially the same as when I was in college except when I was in college it was social drinking. I try to not drink a lot, so sometimes I’ll just stop after two or three a day, some days I have none. It basically starts with me not buying alcohol, when I only have expensive wine and stuff I tend not to casually drink. But I don’t drink if I drive, if I work or if I have stuff to do later.
At the moment? Once or twice a week maybe. And only one or two drinks. A few years ago it was a lot more. But then I was living in a condo downtown with a top notch cocktail bar on the block. I was out most nights doing something or other.
About 12 drinks per week on average (1 drink = ~1oz of at least 40% alcohol). It mostly depends on what I have on hand. If I have a good bottle of Cognac, Bourbon, or Scotch I will probably have 2-3 drinks every night until it’s gone. If I just have a handle of Kirkland Signature then I may only have 3-4 drinks a week.
I am 50. The average is a bottle of whisky weekly.
A few times a year. Usually in the summer when I’m outside grilling. Drank a fair amount in my 20s. Then I had kids. I didn’t want to be hungover and having to deal with kids. Also didn’t have time to drink after kids.
Rarely. Maybe one drink every other week or so.
I want to enjoy what I’m drinking. I like Islay single malts. I can’t afford the Islay single malts that I really like anymore. So…
Sometimes not for weeks, sometimes nightly.
A beer or bourbon a few times a week depending on how wound up I am after work. Haven’t actually drank enough to get drunk in months. The last few times I did it was hitting me weird and just making me tired anyway.
Depends. 4 litres of Wine a week or 750 ml of Whiskey can be considered standard with long gaps in-between.
Maybe 1 beer a month, on average. And spirits maybe twice a year.
I have one beer most nights now, since like a year ago. I never drink more or anything else other than a glass of wine instead occasionally. Before that, maybe once a month. I’m not in race shape (bicycle) any more but for my 30’s, I’m in far better shape than most.
Never. I have this weird thing where my liver doesn’t process it correctly. If I have one beer I’ll throw up for 3 days.
https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17659-alcohol-intolerance
"When most people ingest alcohol, which contains ethanol:
An enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) helps metabolize (process) the ethanol.
Your liver converts the ethanol to acetaldehyde, a substance that can cause cell damage.
Another enzyme called aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) helps convert acetaldehyde to acetic acid (vinegar), which is nontoxic.
In people with alcohol intolerance, a genetic mutation (change) makes ALDH2 less active or inactive. As a result, your body can’t convert acetaldehyde to acetic acid. Acetaldehyde starts to build up in your blood and tissues, causing symptoms."
Sorry to hear, hopefully you didn’t have to learn it the hard way
Oh, man, DID I…
