Message FatPhil P beers 26061 º places 995 º 10:26 Wed 5/27/2015 After about a decade in this game (ticking in large numbers on RB), and several decades outside it, I’m pretty sure that the proportion of people who have alcohol problems inside the ticking scene is less than amongst the public at large. Honestly, the guys and gals who are attempting to write descriptions of their 20th different beer of the evening are not the ones you, or society, need to worry about. How "ticking on RB" corresponds to the "craft beer" in the thread title, I have no idea. I suspect that the people who self-identify as ones who drink "craft beer" are probably behaviourally indistinguishable from those who drink macro suds, except when asked about beer.

Message Reid beers 3528 º places 95 º 13:43 Wed 5/27/2015 I drink at the weekend, i tend to drink a bit more than i expect to most of the time. More a binge drinker than a raging alkie. If i ever lose my job i am in trouble !!

I dont know..i like the taste of beer, i know thats a cliche, and i wont touch any other alcohol..as i dont like the taste. I think that is different from a person who craves the alcohol and will go down to drinking meths to get a hit. The only thing thats bad for me is the calories in the beers i drink...and I am working on that by cutting out the higher abv stuff.
