How much do you drink?

[cigarsarge]

I don't drink alot but I drink well...Usually on wekends. I really like Ron Z Rum as well as Zaya.

I'm into beer also...Chimay Red and Stone Arrogant Bastard are on tomorrows menu.

Sipping on Blue Moon right now...Not bad for a mass produced beer.

I usually down a pint or 2 of Guinness in the evening. It's got everything you need to live well! That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

As for Cirrhosis of the Liver, which I assume you are getting at, I heard a report recently that people who drink heavily and suffer liver problems are usually people who don't eat when the imbibe. Those who consume alcohol with meals or munch while they are drinking usually have no problems.

Now, I'm no expert and I don't know if it's true or not. Anyone else heard of this study?

I rarely drink alcohol during the week since I work the third shift. On the weekend I usually go for the darker import beers( Dos Equis, Guiness, Negro Modelo, etc). I very rarely get to throw down some microbrews or the good stuff you can only get at the liquor store. Lately I have been enjoying a Mississippi brewed beer by Lazy Magnolia Brewing Co. The Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale is pretty good.

I enjoy all kinds of single malt scotches, and when I don't have a choice I'll drink Johnny Red or Glenfiddich I usually have a few drinks a week at the least I use to be a big beer drinker but my gut seemed to grow larger by the beer...

Well................... I may have a drink or 2. I am all over the charts as to what I like. It all depends what mood I am in. Over the past year or so I have found myself drinking quite a bit of things I never thought I would ever touch. Early years it was all Captain and Coke. Now I never touch that. Extreme Cherry vodka and Diet Coke, Dark beers (Stout, IPA etc...) Glenlivit or any good scotch, Shot of Allens when I feel a cold comimg on.In the morning I have about 4 cups coffee and then try to drink water throuout the day.

I refuse to answer on grounds that I may incriminate myself.

Oh nonsense Don...... you and I enjoy the same thing, only I prefer beer and you probably favor spirits and mixers. Fair enough?

From what I know, this isn't true. The liver metabolizes alcohol and if you abuse alcohol to the point where you wind up with liver disease, whether you drink on a full or empty stomach will have little or no effect. Food in the stomach slows down the absorption of alcohol but it's not like it avoids the liver from having to deal with it eventually.

I don't drink that much. When I do, it could be any of the following:
Wine (usually red and my favorite reds are French Bordeauxs)
Some beer (NOT mass produced American lagers, those SUCK )
Dark rum (Myers)
Tequila
Cordials like Chambord, Baileys, Godiva
Single malt scotch
