Current Events > I don't understand why some people only drink one beer.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Whats the point? It does nothing to you, and beer isnt something you would have acquired a taste for unless you were a binge drinker.

Some beers taste pretty good on their own right.

Beer is good, I rarely drink to get drunk

Beer relaxes me at the end of a long day in a way that nothing else really will. I'll typically buy a 12 pack and drink 2 per day for 6 days, and I like it that way.

I agree, but I never would have thought so if I hadnt first acquired the taste from binge drinking.

Idk, I drink fairly regularly and will usually drink just one.

Maybe if it's budweiser or some piss water then you won't feel anything. I know of a few beers that taste good and have 8-9% alcohol so there's definitely a buzz after one.

Also your height and weight make a difference. Even tho I'm 6'3" 190 I can still feel it after a beer and I'm far from a lightweight. Some fatties might need more.

How old are you TC? I had this opinion when I was around 18 and it was gone and the total opposite around 21ish.

18 is drinking age here BTW.

I mean... that's based solely on your own experience. I was never big into binging on beers myself

It's social obligation.

If you go out with friends, you can't drink -nothing-. So you have one beer.

This, I don't drink to get drunk. I'm sipping whiskey right now, but I certainly will not be drunk from this.

805's and Blue Moons are more tolerable if you're the type of person who dislikes the tastes of beer.

I hate the taste of beer and dont see how anyone actually enjoys the taste but on the other hand I like the taste of black coffee and most people dont.

There's various brands of beer . You can mix in a little orange juice if you find beer to be too strong.
---

Sometimes I'll have one before I get to the liquor.

28. Been a pretty heavy drinker for about 5 years now.

I usually drink as a sleep aid. 2-3 doesnt get me drunk but it does loosen me up and induce a bit of drowsiness.

I sleep like a babeh

one beer is okay if you're talking like at a bar and one glass

Even when I drank a lot, I'd get a slight, short lived buzz from slamming a single beer.

What the fuck

At 29 just 1 pint is enough for me to start feeling good. 3 pints and I get a slightly nauseated hang over the next day. My body can't handle 6 or 7 like it used to with no problems the following day.

Dad was a really bad alcoholic, and I hated seeing how it made him. Thus, I hated alcohol. I swore I'd never touch it, and didn't for several years after his death.

These days, I'm much more lax about it but I still don't get drunk. I like to have a beer every now and again, and very occasionally I'll have liquor.

Kinda answered your own question. I was a binge drinker and acquired the taste, now I rarely drink more than 1 or 2.
