I have been brewing now for about a year, I was talking to my partner at work about the IPA I am brewing tomorrow. A detailed conversation about the amount of Hops, Pliny the Younger, ect..
An associate at work hears us and makes an off-the-cuff comment about how we sound like a couple of alcoholics.
I have heard to many versions of this kind of remark:
Anybody else run into this type of social condemnation?
And just for the record: I drink often, I don't drink a lot. (well occasionally I do :cross: )
(I was about to be laid off at the end of this month, fortunately I just got a job offer this week, so this weekend will be one those times that I drink too much!)

"Wow you must drink a awful amount of beer."
"Do you brew beer to get cheap alcohol?"
I have had three job interviews this year*, and I never bring up brewing for fear that someone on the panel may be anti-alcohol."Do you brew beer to get cheap alcohol?"
