How's the old saying go? "Wine is fine but liquor is quicker."

But I guess beer is preferred.

In my younger days as a drinker (I hardly ever drink now) I’d mix beer and a shot of vodka because the 3.2 beers we could get were just too slow.........

with easy access to beer seen as a major reason.

Yeah, finding a connection with access to vodka or whiskey is so hard these days. It's not like you can just walk into a liquor store and buy it.

The CDC is campaigning for tighter rules on the taxation of beer and on its availability, especially late at night and early in the morning.

Go cure cancer or something, you nannies.

Thanks!

I knew beer was part of the equation somewhere.

It always is.

I hate drinking beer, though I'm pretty dang good at it.

After I get a bladder full, it's to the bathroom or nearest tree and every 12 ounces after that.

..gimme my Canadian Whisky.

I prefer beer, but if you don’t want to smell, drink “Hennigan’s.”

Are they really thinking about changing the taxes depending on the time of day?

And really, if I am sitting down on a hot day, there is very little that is better than a pizza and a cold, cold beer.
