How often do you guys/gals drink alcohol?

I drink 1-2 times a week. Typically it is wine with the girl :)

used to really drink only if we went out on special occasions or on vacations, now, i am finding myself having a small drink (usually a cape cod: cranberry juice and grey goose) at least every night to help me sleep, besides if we go out to dinner.
I am a mixed drink person unless i am having fish, then i will get a glass of wine.

I drink a lot... mostly mixed drinks. I rarely go to the bar because I generally have a bigger selection in my own bar at home than most bars in town have.

Let's see I drink once or twice a week. Maybe a 12 pack over the course of the week. I usually get drunk and play CS, and yell at people. Apparently, I got really drunk last week end and made a garden in Viva Pinata, which is pretty sad.

Ever since (when I was all of 10 I think) I mistook a glass of 60vol distilled barley whatever as water, I decided then I don't want to drink. Puking your heart out has that effect on you. It was in a clear glass, I was thirsty, and there is no regular drinker in my house. I gulped it down. Turns out my uncle was visiting, he drinks only that and had just gone into the washroom. Similar experience with tobacco (one of my dad's employee had me try it, also around 10 or so. Got his ass fired for it.) got me fixed on that too.

I don't drink that much anymore, but when I do, it's got to be beer. I'm not as big of a fan of hard liquor/mixed drinks as I used to be...

Only time I drink is if I have a beer with Pizza or something while watching a football game. That or if we go out with a bunch of people for dinner. I never go to bars because of the smoking and the crowdedness. And I mostly drink beer but if we're at someone's house making drinks, Run & Coke is it for me.

If you'd asked me two months ago I'd have been borderline alcoholic lol... cut down lately.

I'm a single malt scotch, irish whiskey, or gin guy. Mostly gin lately.

You live near some of the finest beers in the world and you don't even drink?! Isn't that like an American not eating cheeseburgers and corndogs? :p
