    In order to wash down some shrooms. So the outdoor activity works best with me.

    Well some of us can actually appreciate a Miller 64 once in a while... Maybe your palate just can't handle low alcohol beer? Haha :wink:

    You know exactly what to say to make me feel inferior to you.. That is so not beer advocacy... Not cool.. not cool at all

    When I want to feel good the next day
    When I want to drink and be around my children
    When I want to drink during the day
    When I want a refreshing beer

    For when I have something that I can't be hammered for later.

    Like a eulogy, surgery, or AA meeting.

    All of the above, and more or less all the time. Sessionable beers (and by this I mean under 5% at least) in the range of 3.5% to 4.5% the majority of the time, make up the bulk of my drinking. I'll start with a stronger beer at the beginning of some sessions, but most of my drinking is lighter.

    All the above for me. I typically only drink higher ABV beer one or two at a time then move onto a session. If I'm out I limit myself to three drinks max, but at home or in a private environment I may have a few more. Enjoying several sessionable beers throught a day on the lake or hanging out on the porch with friends is much more fun than getting hammered for the sake of getting hammered. I love the way beer tastes, the silly side effects are just a bonus :wink:
