They say drinking 24/7 is bad. Alcoholism and all that stuff... but when you really think about it, back in the day when people would only drink beer because untreated water would give you diarrea that might well kill you, and even in the early days of the US when everyone was drinking to kingdom come, people definitely forked more and got more shit done. What gives? Kinda gotta wonder.

@ThatCrazyDude wasn't the standard beer like 1-2% alcohol? i think that is very well in the limits of what the body has evolved to tolerate for very long because low amounts of alcohol are incredibly common anyway.
@bonifartius I don't think there's any data about it, but considering that wild yeast will tolerate 5-6% alcohol content, I'd imagine that was the strength of th beverage, do pretty much your regular lager nowadays.
