The old CaptainCrunch from 4 years ago. Probably 3 or 4 beers a night, or a couple of rum and cokes a night. Then from Friday through to Sunday, I always had a beer or glass in my hand.

Now, once every 3 or 4 months I'll break down and have a beer at a family get together.

My tolerance for liquor is not what it used to be

Vodka, recreationally, and usually only one or two drinks, as I am often driving.

Might correct that at our Drumheller softball playoff, however.

-Beer (Labatts Blue or Lite) mostly.
-I could drink a couple every day for a few weeks straight, or not have any for a week or so, depending on what is going on.
- Anywhere from 1 - 15

Last weekend I was in a golf tournament and between our 4some, we had Jagermeister, Peach Schnapps, Cuervo Gold, and some kind of Watermellon liquer, plus a bunch of beer.
Having liquor from 10 am - 12:30 am is fun sometimes.

Right now I have a few social beers a week. I never drink at home, unless we have company, or alone.

I used to drink about a case of beer a week and at least a 40 of rye a week. That was back in my wilder days. I sure don't miss the hangovers.

I always joke that back in the day. I never had any liqueur in the house since my friends and I always drank it all. Now that I hardly drink. I have a fully stocked liqueur cabinet, with more than one bottle having a few birthdays.

Basically it's because i work in the Nightclub industry as a DJ. I always have one of those to start me off and keep me going for the night.

I have one or two or three drinks per Flames game that I watch on TV. Otherwise, Friday nights after classes I go with friends for a few. Birthdays, and student parties can get a little out of hand. In the summer, unless I am on vacation, there is no hard drinking. I have one or two at slo-pitch or after.

I have severely increased my drinking from a few years ago. Two years ago I probably would have 1 drink a week, and now I am almost at a drink per day. Still not a "problem drinker" but it's a whole new world!

On my two month summer break, I drink maybe 3-4 beers a day on average. I gained 30lbs this summer! LOL

While working in Nunavut I average 1 drink per week becuase I live in a semi dry town. Alcohol is frowned upon. I also lose lots of weight while I am here

Oh man, I forgot about Flames games. 2 or 3 heroin beers every game, so if they play an extended home stand I have a couple drinks every other day (along with nachos or some other form of crap) and if there's a game on the weekend you can easily double that. I can think of maybe 4 home games last year when I didn't have at least 1 beer.

Hockey season means increased cardio sessions to help with my junk food and beer intake.

Yeah if you order it, ask for an orange slice with it, when I make them at home I usually add a bit of orange juice into it, you'll probably get a weird look when you order it but I LOVE it, and usually when I tell the bartender to try it, they like it too.

Wine, vodka and rye are my main drinks.

Wine with dinner whenever I'm eating food that calls for it (pastas, steak, etc.)... usually two glasses if I'm eating in and a lot more when I'm eating out with friends.

Vodka/rye mixes after work... if I'm out with friends I drink a lot more... if I'm home, I'll probably go through two drinks a night.

I don't keep count on weekends 'cause it'd just be bad... I've actually decrease my alcohol consumption a lot over the summer...

3-4 beers per Flames game, I typically watch them in a pub with my friends, the playoffs get out of hand.

During the summer if I'm sitting on a patio for a few hours the count can get a little high.

If I'm looking to just relax I love a glass of scotch with ice. I'm a big fan of Chivas Regal.

Beer: maybe a pint or two a week total. Not so much anymore after my last date with a few schooners of Keiths

Starting to drink wine more these days. Just reds though, maybe a bottle in a given month.

The occasional sip or two of a good rye whiskey every now and then too. Haven't found a scotch I like though.

Lol, I get this reaction a lot from many fellow scotch drinkers. It depends on the type of scotch, but I cant really afford the amazing stuff, so yeah, I like ice.

I do have a couple bottles of the nice stuff and I wouldnt dare pollute them with ice.

Haven't met a scotch I don't like yet.

Usually try and stay dry for Mon, Tues, Wed. If scotch is around, then I will likely have a good drink at least one of those nights.

Thurs is either drink hard from 5:30-11, or just like Mon-Wed.

Fri - Sat, is usually drink hard until 2-3am. Beer, Vodka/Soda, Gin/Soda, Wine, etc. On exception I have easy going nights on weekends ... on exception ...

Drink of choice is either Wine (Red or White), beer (kokanee or MGD), or Dark Rum (bacardi black) and coke/Grey Goose, Soda, and a shot of lime juice....

I drink at least one protein shake a day, in the morning and usually a second in the afternoon as a snack.

I drink about 4 glasses of water in the morning starting with breakfeast till the end of my work out. About 3 glasses in the afternoon and another 3-4 at night on average.

I drink about 2 glasses of Milk with my supper, water with lunch.

Every other day I treat myself to a diet pepsi as well, I keep a case of cans in my house at all times.

When I do drink alcohol, which I have limited myself to 1 night every 14 days, I will drink between 12-14 drinks worth. Usually 6 beer, 6 whiskeys and a few shots.

I sip it, but I squeeze in some lime into the glass. I picked that up in Mexico City, so I figure I dont have to worry about being considered a Gringo if I drink it that way. Plus, its all natural (100% agave and freshly squeezed lime).

I dont know about Glace, but I've tried the other 3 you mentioned. Right now I have 2 bottles on the go:

Herencia de Plata Anejo
Corralejo Tequila Reposado

And 3 bottles I havent opened yet:

El Jimador Edicion Limitada Anejo
Sauza Tres Generaciones Anejo
Gran Centenario Anejo

My parents go to Mexico once and year and pick me up a bottle, plus I have a friend from Mexico City, and her parents bring me up a bottle whenever they come up to visit.

I'm usually good for a couple beers before and after hockey, which is about 3-4 times a week.

If it's in my fridge and a game is on though, I'll drink it. Rarely touch the hard stuff but G&Ts are the way to go.
