When I moved to Seattle, I was amazed at how many social functions revolve around beer. Work functions, meetups of all varieties... Heck, my last two offices have in-office kegs.
I technically drink, I just don't particularly like most alcohol and definitely don't like beer. I don't begrudge anyone their pleasures, and I don't have a particular change I'd suggest - if I'm the outlier, it only makes sense for them to target the common case.
But I was definitely surprised at the ubiquity.

- virusduck 8y agoI agree. I'm more of a beer homebrewer, but I have a mead-making friend that makes some amazing meads. He manages to squirrel them away in his house so that he forgets about bottles. Then, when they turn up years later, they're just spectacular!
