Maybe I'm just an alcoholic then

I always drink water alongside any alcohol though to try to lessen the next day's hangover.

Wines with meals.
Rum with Cigars or at parties.
Whisky sometimes, no scotch.... never developed the taste.

My order is:
1) Beer
2) Wheated Bourbon or Red wine (Syrah and Pinot Noir are typically my favorite styles)
3) Basically any other style of Whiskey

Everything else.

I find I pace myself much better with bourbon or wine. I just plow through beer too quickly, particularly if it's hot outside.

I honestly haven't had a really bad hangover in quite a while. I usually drink a bunch of water while I'm boozing. Usually the only time I get a real hangover is if I have multiple days of heavy drinking, then it seems to be a cumulative effect where after day 3 or so I feel like total arse and don't want to drink anymore.

It takes me about a fifth to start feeling real good. Which is equivalent to about 12 beers.

You should re-check that math, unless you're drinking 12 imperials

Yeah, you'd have to be drinking beers that average out to 7.0% ABV or above for a dozen 12 ounce beers to contain as much alcohol as a fifth of 80 proof liquor.

I drink IPA

There's about 12 2 ounce glasses in a fifth, 1.5 ounce is equivalent to a beer or glass of wine. Rounding and all
