I drank a shitload in highschool up until I was probably 22 or so. Didn't ever really pick it up again, but I developed a fondness for single malts a while back. The past year or so I've been having a dram every couple days and I wouldn't consider myself an accomplished drinker or anything.
In the past hour/ hour and a half I've had 5 bud lights. I feel like I wanna barf. I have a buzz, but nothing spectacular and I feel so bloated it's not even funny. Makes me wonder how in the fuck I ever drank a twelve pack (or more) in a few hours when I was much younger. Anyone turn from drinking stud to drinking wuss? I'm actually glad tbh - found that a case of shitty beer is now ~$20. I'd hate to be a drunk nowadays - it'd get damn expensive. |

I drank a lot of beer when I was younger but have drifted to bourbon as I've gotten older. Most of my friends my age have also drifted away from beer and into other spirits.
Don't be mistaken though as we all still enjoy a good beer but just don't drink it like water anymore. |

In college I had some nights where I'd put away an impressive number of beers.
The most I ever have is 2 beers nowadays, and usually don't even finish the second one. It's not an intentional effort to drink less for health reasons. If I even crack a second beer, after about 2/3, the rest goes warm and I dump it. |
| I can't tell you the last time I had a beer. It wouldn't surprise me if a few made me sick. Same with wine. But honest to God, with a long enough night, a good mood, and plenty of vape juice, I can damn near kill a 750ml bottle of JD SB (and when I do my liver loves me largely - good thing I live on cleansing caffeine during the week). |

43 here, drank and order of magnatude more between 18 and 25 then between 25 and now.
Up until 6 months ago I would enjoy a good craft beer now and then, maybe one a week. Keto pretty much put that off limits and I am not a hard liquor guy so I pretty much do not drink. Think I have had 2 beers in the last 6 months (cheat days). What really ruined drinking for me was living next door to a bar for a couple of years. Hearing drunken morons every night (along with the fights and other assorted drunken stupidity) made me not want to drink. I think I wind up above the legal limit 1-2 times a year, thats it. Haven't been shitfaced since the gathering at my dad's house after my mom's funeral, that was almost 2 years ago. Dunno, I guess I just don't like it anymore. |

What kind of bourbon do you like? You too, @mizzarely Quoted:

I have gone from a case of beer a night in my 20's to 5~6 bourbon cocktails a night in my 50's. 
ed; all that beer was too fattening.   |

I gotta be honest, unless it's above $90 or so a bottle I can't tell a difference. I go cheap if I'm just going to get shitty on a Friday, some times I'll treat myself to something expensive if I plan on sipping. Quoted:

you're right... drinking is bad for you in the long run, and it's very expensive.
I am at a phase where I light being a light weight, I like having a cheap habit, and I like the thought of not destroying my liver and kidneys. Let all the fools drink like sailors until they drop dead. |

| First off, don't be a bitch. You're first instinct is gonna be along the lines of "I don't want to die but shit sucks anyway, drink. And the always popular life sucks dick without booze." It will not be easy, it probably won't be successful. I said I'd be honest. |
