There were some that did not drink.
They were some that really got drunk.
Some took hallucinogens regularly.
Others smoked tobacco occasionally.
Some farmed.
Others got most of their food from the sea.
Every tribe was different.
No matter what they tell you about any group of people you can probably find an exception. Sometimes, a lot of them.

The Egyptians drank beer and their civilization lasted for centuries. But if you knew how chicha was made in Peru you probably wouldn't drink it.
The stuff looks - er - interesting
Chicha morada Peru; unfermented chicha made from purple maize and boiled with pineapple and spices.

"But if you knew how chicha was made in Peru you probably wouldn't drink it." Warm spit - to give it a little kick.

The Huron Indians praised diversity, and now they’re extirpated.

As it was from the beginning so it shall be until the end.
Only the labels change, not the people.
