Who wants $15 in free beer? (21 AND OVER ONLY!!!)

[PacificRimJob]

Idk people can drink what they want. No need to call anyone an alcoholic especially over beer, when you drink beer.

Haha dude! I literally said people can and should drink what they want, and more power to them if they like the taste of lite beer. I just said if you drink it specifically because it's a cheap way to get drunk, then that's pretty alcoholic behaviour - and I speak from experience as someone who did that as a 22 year old lol.

I also heard that there is incredible research being done directly linking the amount of Busch light drank to prefrontal cortex development lmao.

Post reads like it's from someone who had a sip of PBR in college, didn't like that it wasnt sweet and sugary and has spent all their time since drinking hot choccy.

As someone who drank too much PBR, Olympia, and Rainier during university, perhaps I forgot what a prefrontal cortex even was.

Either way, my original post was alluding to the fact that beer sales overall are in decline as part of the overall market share, especially lite beer sales, now that you have people drinking so many those white claw things or drinking less overall and using more cannabis instead.

The big beer companies are definitely seeing more competition from other alcoholic products - especially spirits, so they're trying hard to compete with that using hard seltzers. Even Pabst has a hard seltzer now... and hell, I hear that microbreweries are starting to make hard seltzer in order to compete.

I don't hear many people being excited to buy a Miller Lite, but I hear a lot of people who are enjoying white claws on wednesdays. Even my senior citizen parents and their friends are sipping on Twisted Teas if they're not drinking wine. Pretty sure there's less Sam Adams being brewed in Boston than there is an alcoholic tea party being brewed up for nationwide sales.

the reason everyone is telling you this is an L take is that getting drunk =/= alcoholism. the desire to get drunk is not the same as being addicted to alcohol. you're just wrong.

You don't have to actually be an alcoholic to act like one lol.

There’s nothing more sad than going to the local breweries and seeing people pounding seltzers

its hilarious you won't just admit your take was wrong, you're picking an interesting hill to die on here.

wanting to get drunk is not "acting like an alcoholic" you've either never known a true alcoholic or you're trolling.

All beer tastes like shit. Alcohol in general tastes terrible. Pretending that it does is the worlds oldest conspiracy.

"Many factors underlie the role that alcohol flavor plays in the development of alcohol preference and consumption patterns. Such factors include the activation of peripheral chemoreceptors by alcohol (Trevisani et al., 2002); central mechanisms that mediate the hedonic responses to alcohol flavor (Ferraro et al., 2002); learned associations of alcohol’s sensory attributes and its postingestive effects and early postnatal exposure to alcohol flavor (Mennella, 1999; Molina et al., 1999); and genetically determined individual variation in chemosensation (Bartoshuk et al., 1993; Duffy et al., 2003; Pelchat and Danowski, 1992)."
