Bars, Restaurants, taprooms, and any other place that actually serves alcohol sales are down, servers out of work, bartenders out of work, owners not getting any income...everything is A-OK! /sarc

Stuck here in backward Pennsylvania unless you are near the border you are out of luck. We can buy wine in select supermarkets and beer. I can buy a bottle of wine at a near by supermarket but can’t walk across the parking lot to bu a bottle of bourbon at the state owned liquor store. Go figure.

Now is not a good time to develop an addiction to anything, because you may find yourself unable to get what you need.

I been there before. It’s bad.

It could be informative to know that the Soviet Union would do the same whenever one purge or another took place or during times of crisis.

This may be both.

My opinion (which causes amusing knee jerk reactions every time) is that they should drop the legal age back to 18. At the very least.

88,000 Americans die of alcohol-related causes each year. Do we think CV deaths will be above or below that number?

Of course I stocked up on ‘beverages’ as part of my final prepping for Coronavirus - for wine, it was 12 cases, and I’m still debating another run.

I’ve been home brewing beer since 1991, wine since 2005. A small incident in my garage made my wife give distilling 2x thumbs down on no uncertain terms. Probably for the best as I had to replace her car window. But I was this [ ] close.

To each their own... as for me, my alcohol consumption is way down. For one thing, I’m running out but even with that, I’m taking it easy... one needs their wits running at least at 100% these days.
