I do alcohol since I was around 15. in high school I was known for my resistance to vodka. but what I drank most was beer, still is.

in the past years I started to drink other stuff too, more often, like whisky or white wine (I don't like red wine much), even vodka. I never mix spirits with juice, it's just stupid and it tastes awful.

in the avatar I drink a tasty Csíki sör from Székelyföld (a beer made in the Hungarian region of central Romania)

Mostly small ale. My old man taught me the traditional way: long lectures about what and how to drink and about what style fits with what, when I was in my early teens and so did one of the old "broeders" (priests) at the care home where I ended up after both my parents ended up incapacitated. The methods used were to drink tiny amounts of small ale and some real beer and to learn to pay attention to it: to the palate the odor, the color etc. To appreciate it as some brewer's hard labor and to respect both his craft and the final product. This included long lectures over the dangers of alcohol abuse. In both cases, my father (allow me to quote him: "I rather see to it that I teach you then to have your irresponsible friends do it for me by the time you reach 16. I don't want you to come a wreck !") and the priest rather had someone responsible tell me, then to watch me fuck myself over by the time I reached 16 , which was at the time a real danger for a lot of teens danger as the overall alcohol consumption was much higher.

It's because of these lessons that I have such a respect for alcohol (both in its good sides and its bad) and I have absolutely 0 respect for those who abuse it and who try to talk others into abuse it. I have known people who lost their minds or become addicted because of it.

Boy, this thread is bringing back memories...

Six-packs of Milwaukee's Best, buried in the mud in Southern Alabama, where we would have to hide it and dig it up to drink while hiding from rednecks and police. Nothing like hot beer on a Summer day in Alabama...

Those were the days, my friends...
