You won't see me railing against alcohol often, but it's not for me.
I would like to point out something that some people might not be aware of.
Craft beer has provided an opportunity for lots (millions?) of people to think of alcoholism as a fun, nerdy hobby.
Limited releases, numbered bottles, cellar lists & specialized glasswear are more socially than a junkie's kit but can be just as deadly.
It's more than socially acceptable. Alcohol of all types are thrust upon us. At times it felt like a social obligation. Not only was craft beer a way to socialize & identify with people I normally couldn't. There are apps for keeping your list & rating them. It also felt like a thing that interesting, cultured people did.
If anyone ever wants to discuss this in private, my dm's are always open.
