i wouldn't go hard liquor but that's only because i don't drink it. i like drinking some beers and getting a buzz but liquor is a whole other animal to me.

Some of the nicest ppl i've seen are in AA. But i guess it's not for everyone, especially when u have SA

2 bud talls will get me pleasantly buzzed if I drink fast and didn't eat recently. Beer/alcohol will put a lot of weight on me and inhibit muscle growth, so I only enjoy it in moderation. I'm a light one-day-a-week drinker, ideally.

I'm nobody to chastise you, you know what you're doing. I usually prefer liquor to beer, even though beer taste better. Popov and Old Crow are my favorites. Cheap for a lot and good. Sometimes I mix popov with gatorade, but it's not so bad straight, unlike gordons. If I had a lot of money to waste, I would buy stoli. 151 will mess you up fast- it's excellent for putting in a flask. I really dislike that rum taste though. I haven't tried any of those generic select brands.

four 40 oz cans of steel reserve (8.1% alcohol, I believe) usually gets me as drunk as I want to get, which isn't much.

Beer can make one fat.

Beer does have lots of calories which is definitely a negative.

Moderation is really the key. If you feel the need to drink every day then you need to ask yourself why.

I am all for having a few drinks but not daily drinking.

You know though, beer is kind of easier for me to relax with. It's more enjoyable to me, the liquor experience is a less relaxed one. Sometimes I prefer beer too I guess. I felt drawn back to this topic for some reason. =x
