when you grow older alcohol switches from being pleasant to being perceived as a poisoning. Two beers and I feel ill, like something is wrong with me and I cannot drink more.
- booleandilemma 6y agoI have anecdata too: the most enthusiastic drinkers I know are in their 40s and 50s.
- dragonwriter 6y agoWhen you, in the specific sense, grow older, maybe, but not when you, in the generic sense, do. I know plenty of older people for whom alcohol in general, and beer specifically, remain enjoyable.
