i've been resistant to 4.5% beer for years now Gery , though i try & control myself , don't buy spirits & haven't had a drink all weekend , anything above 5% is for absolute alcoholics though Blush

I read your thread regarding depression & loneliness , a lot speak of older people suffering from loneliness but many younger people do too

My woolly jumpered, bearded Real Ale acquaintances tell me that below 4% is a 'session ale' i.e. they can drink more than 3 pints before they catch their train home
Report Facts • August 19, 2014 8:34 AM BST
Red wine at 14,% is much more drinkable imo.
Report TheChaser • August 19, 2014 9:55 AM BST

Nice bottle of Pinot Grigio for me.
12.5%, goes down a treat with a meal, almost like water but a bit tastier, and when you've finished the bottle & meal you get up from the table and everything seems better (and a bit unstable).

Too true DwD.
Taking drugs simply keeps most of the dopey buggers quiet.

It's alcohol that makes then violent and anti social.

They should examine why they need to take anything.

Plenty of people manage quiet well without taking drink or drugs.

Still can't beat a nice glass of  chilled Pinot Grigio.  Not sure about "I need it, drug taking analogies, though".
I drink it because it's nice with my meal and (I don't think) harms me when taken in moderation.

^ Nor would a spliff, but many people see alcohol as ok, marijuana not okay. They are all drugs even paracetemol, we all know someone who eats these like sweets.

As I've got older I find I'd much rather drink one pint of a 6% beer than two 4%.  Trouble is once you get used to the stronger stuff the weaker stuff seems.... a bit weak.

I've just discovered Gin.  Had a G&T for the first time for ages and have got the taste for it.  Trouble is I'm not having it instead of a pint but as an appetiser.
