  • I’m with you, I also don’t like getting drunk and I don’t like how even a little bit of alcohol tires my body, but unfortunately I’ve found that flavor and alcohol content are directly related: a 5% beer never tastes as rich as a 9% tripel, and a 0.0% beer will never have as much flavor as even a simple 5% lager. I’ve tasted quite a few and they all taste “empty” to me. I think this is because alcohol is a solvent for a lot of chemical compounds in beer that give flavor.

    So what I do instead is pick my moments, and never overindulge to the point where I feel intoxicated.
