How often do you drink alcohol?

Same answer here.

I usually have a couple of beers or glasses of wine when I get home from work or with dinner. And my husband and I will go downtown once every other weekend or so to have a few drinks with friends.

I guess on average about 3 times a week. My GF will split a bottle of wine when we go out to dinner on weekends. During the week, maybe a single drink with dinner.

Every now and again, I’ll stop by the pub. If it’s just me, usually I’ll have 2 beers (stopping in for a single beer seems weird.) But that can easily be 4 or 5 or more if I get caught up in a conversation with someone.

Rarely do I “drink to get drunk” these days. Although back in the day, my friends and I would get shitfaced on a regular basis.

Every day. Usually one a day but, about once a week, I’ll have 3.

If I am brewing then I will usually have a -lot- more. You can’t brew beer (or wine, cider and mead) without drinking some of the previous batches. That only happens once or twice a month, though.

I needed a two times a week option. I go for lunch and beers with the boys on Fridays (which I have to miss for a doctor’s appointment today <sigh>) and usually there is one night on the weekend where I am having people for dinner or being had for dinner (that doesn’t sound right) so we will have a few beers or glasses of wine.

However, rare are the times I am drunk. Probably twice a year?

Probably 5 or 6 times a week, depending on what’s going on. I won’t if we’re going out because I’m inevitably the driver and I usually don’t on Sundays because I’m often starting to prepare for the upcoming week’s events.

I don’t drink for the buzz but simply because I enjoy the taste of a finely crafted wine or distilled liquor. So at home, in moderation and with something really nice, yeah, most every weeknight and Saturday.

I found the crackheads…unless you’re doing MJ which is socially acceptable (just not legal in most countries). :smiley:

There’s a golden rule on this, if someone says they don’t smoke pot or drink alcohol…then you must wonder what it is they are doing. :smiley:

(I am not accusing anyone of anything, BTW, just stating my observance and dealings with people. My advice, don’t tell anyone you don’t drink or smoke, especially while nervously scratching your nose.) :eek:

Knock off the threadshitting. If you want to cast aspersions, go do it in The BBQ Pit.

Yeah! Get im! ::uurp::

I like a beer maybe one or two times a week win dinner, especially in the summer and fall months when the summer brews and then the fall brews come out.

I just got some pumpkin UFOs and planning on having one with a burger tonight. I rarely have more than one drink at a time and I haven’t been drunk in years.

One more for “never.” I think this one needs to be redone.

When I was single and looking, I went out drinking a lot more than I do now. Experience has taught me that I rarely make good decisions when I’m drunk.

I voted once per month, but its more like once every couple of months. When I do drink, it’s only a beer or two, or maybe a bloody mary. Spicy. However now that I’m pregnant, I’ve been craving beer. I think that’s just because I can’t have one.

I answered once a month, but it’s really a few times a year, and never to drunkenness.

I come from a long line of alcoholics that used it to self-medicate for mental illness. It was finally socially acceptable to get help by the time it rolled around for me. So for one, I’m very careful not to start a habit, and number two, I’m on medication I shouldn’t drink with.

Also, I don’t like getting socially drunk. If that’s your idea of fun, so be it, but I don’t want to be around people who like to do so.

Once a week or maybe less, and not at all unless my wife asks if I’d like a glass of wine. Beer in my fridge tends to stay there untouched.

Daily. Probably 3-5 strong beers a night, or equivalent in spirits, and more at weekends.

It seems like most of the other people who say they drink daily are too drunk to post!

I haven’t read the responses to the thread yet, but wouldn’t be surprised if others responded as I do.

Why didn’t you include a ‘Never’ option? Not everyone drinks. In fact, many people don’t. I, for example, have never had an alcoholic beverage of any kind in my life.

ETA: Just read the thread. It’s a relief to see I’m not alone in this boat. :slight_smile:

You left off never, for those of us that don’t drink at all.

?

Where’s the “I don’t/Never” option?

A lot more of us teetotalers than I expected.

Never; no interest in the stuff.

Less than once per month. I just don’t like the taste.
