Well.. Ok, I won't go there. My wife get's a 'hangover' too.. Me, it takes a fifth of ****ty whiskey to get a hangover. Oh wait, by hangover do you mean headache? So that's why I wake up everyday with a headache.. I thought it was lack of sleep, stress, and having 4 kids under 6.
Hangovers, just like any other pain is subjective. It doesn't effect everyone the same and too may other variables including mood, hydration, amount of sleep, stress, and just... I can go on and on.
If someone has a headache and feels like crap the next day after drinking it's a hangover. If they feel like crap and have a headache when they wake up any other day it's a bunch of other excuses and it's really all psychological up to a certain point in my experience.
How is she with Red Wine's? Like, the dry ones with tannins. Cabs, Merlots, etc?
I've never noticed any worse hangover after drinking homemade cider over commercial beers, ciders, or anything really. Except commercial liquor and wine. I have gotten hangovers from homemade wine and some of the shine we used to see on dead tour.
Even with the ferm temps, I just don't buy the hangover debate surrounding cider. It's just not concentrated enough for the fusels and methanol to matter.
As you can tell, I'm a skeptic.. I want to see a double blind study and a placebo before I buy into comparing hangovers from specific beers and ciders to each other or wines to each other or liquors to each other regardless of where or how they were made.
