The guy who read my (latest) CT scan says I have a fatty liver.
Maybe (s)he is jealous..?

If anything the hobby helps you to respect beer and take more time to sit back and enjoy it.
To answer the OP. My world literally revolves around alcohol. If I am near an alcoholic beverage, my sense of gravity becomes askew and I start orbiting the alcohol like a satellite. Then eventually I crash into the booze and transform into a drunken raging Hobo, complete with worn out shoes, and a bindle sack.
I used to be pretty bad. Now I only get drunk once every few weeks, instead opted for a few pints a day. Yeah, I guess I am an alcoholic but I don't get the shakes if I don't drink or get the urge to vomit like I used to.
Beer is like a good woman. If you really love it, you don't abuse it.

That's right. When you are both comfortable with it, go for it. Just remember your safe words.at least when its only for fun, let the fun ensue!
That reminds me, I need to go untie those two I picked up off the side of the road now. The stitches should be all settled by now!Corked and in the freezer?

depends how you define alcoholic.
I think my 1-3 beer consumption a night might put me in some people's category of alcoholic, but I never need it, I simply enjoy the taste.
that being said, how many of us would drink non-alcoholic beer...if it tasted good?
I think I have a new signature quote! That's exactly what I was thinking- all of the brewing calculations, dealing with boiling wort, yeast culturing, etc aren't worth a drunk. Plus, if you drink while brewing you can risk life and limb (and house).
I'm going to go into a gourmet cooking forum, and start a poll-
HOW MANY OF YOU ****ERS ARE FATSOs? Your life revolves around food, therefore you must be obese.
Getting back "on track", such as it is,
Brewing hasn't increased or decreased my consumption that much. However, if I could get non/low alcohol beer to taste the EXACT SAME as the stronger versions, then yes, I would. I really, really dislike the loss of control of having too much. Correspondingly, if I could get decaf that taste the EXACT SAME as regular coffee, I'd drink that too. It's the sameness of taste that's the issue. But if you could get a fantastically balanced, tasty IPA that didn't have any alcohol in it and you could drink any amount of it whenever, hell yeah, sign me up for that!
I brew waaaay more than I drink. I have probably around 40 gallons in the basement ready and just waiting for a keg to open.
I have been sober for 4 1/2 months. Life is getting better by the day.

WillPall, I'm really digging the Eraserhead avatar. Lynch is awesome.
Thanks a lot! I wish he would come out with another film soon. I'm having withdrawals, haha.
so what your saying is that your life revolves around Lynch and your an addict right.
Just wanted to know, considering the fact your life revolves around alcohol, how many of you have a problem with it?
...until I reach orbit and everything else is just outer space.
what the fuzzy-duck! some question that is. my life doesn't revolve around alcohol. my life revolves around my wife and kids and other friends and family as well as other hobbies.
i don't drink to get drunk; i don't drink everyday. i drink only beer and i drink it only to enjoy the different styles of beer. i do homebrew my own beer as a hobby and i come to these forums to get info. and ideas for my homebrewing hobby.
with that said, !
Sounds defensive. I have hobbies too. Most just involve drunkeness!
