Just saw a report that the powers that be are proposing new definition for addiction. It will include “spending an extended amount of time trying to obtain alcohol”. I am curious how long is considered “extended” and if that includes fermentation time or just the time from mash to chill.
The definition of alcoholism depends on whether you are listening to a Madd lady or a barmaid whose living depends on tips.

I always hated the popular definition of binge drinking too. Something like more than 2 or 3 drinks in one sitting is consider binge drinking? Chyah! And monkeys might fly out of my butt!
For some people I knew in my youth, that was the definition of breakfast. :shock:

But I have to get up to go pour a new beer. so therefore it’s only one per “sitting”…
I am not an alcoholic, alcoholics go to meetings… :cheers:
Ya me neither, I prefer the term “alcohol enthusiast”
There’s also “functioning alcoholics” which I wager most of us here are.
some even high functioning
Doesn’t an alcoholic have to admit they have a problem with alcohol? I have no problem, I brew it, then a drink it… no problems…
