Once upon a time I wanted to make my own wine. Ended up making mead instead. Found it so easy and rewarding I doubt I'll ever get around to making wine. Just racked some nice tangerine mead. Looking forward to raspberry season so I can do a big six-gallon batch of raspberry mead.
It's been a hot minute since I've fired up the Ironghast Manufactorum to brew some beer. All my equipment has been packed away (along with my kegerator) for over a year at this point, and I wonder if I even know where everything is...
Maybe I'll clean up the basement and start hauling the gear out to make sure everything is still workable...

My father used to make wine, however it's way too easy to buy it when there are 15 wineries, 5 distilleries and 4 or 5 micro breweries within
10 miles of my house. My current drink is raspberry hard cider and a raspberry/ chipotle variant with a bit of heat in the after taste.

That's cool. No one in my family does anything with alcohol. My family outsi the organic are all super devoted seventh day adventists. They're so... Ugh there's NOTHING interesting in my family that I can point at and relate to. there's definitely no one doign anything cool such as winemaking.
My city, Rancho Cordova, CA is a cool spot because our city council actively pursues businesses attempting to get a hold in the area by providing low ren options where vacancies are. As a result, we have a growing distillery, brewing, and meading industry. They've even marketed our city as the 'Barrel District.' It's badass.
We have yet to see a winery pop into this city but hopefully they'll come. Needless to say, I no longer purchase alcohol that isn't locally made. And I haven't bought wine in years.
So yes, I can relate with you.

I do, but I cheat by using Mr Beer kits. They're easy to use and you can make it as easy or complex as you like and it turns out some pretty good brews.
I also did wine from a box, it contains the juice and all the chemicals you need and turned out really well. I have another on the go but I have neglected it and the CO trap went dry so it's probably ruined and I'll have to throw it out.
It can be time consuming especially the bottling process but I bought stuff to make it easier. I like dark, strong beers, not hoppy and I don't like coffee, so I can add extra yeast and sugar to increase alcohol content on some of the German style beers.
I've got 4 of the Mr Beer LBKS (Little Brown Kegs), I think they make 5 gallons each and you end up with about 20-23 12oz bottles at the end, almost enough for a case.

Only posting because I, also, live in the northwest... but local places like McMinnemins and other locals are serving mead for the past year or so - I thought it was weird too, but I've had a few different kinds. IMO they mostly all suck, but if its yer cup of tea you can find options in Oregon and Washington.

High Life is what I should've said instead of MGD. My sister's boyfriend drinks it, and as mentioned it is way better than several big brand beers. Before the mico brews took off, I was not a beer drinker because of the taste of some big brand beers. There might be something in Budweiser I'm allergic to. I'm more of a special occasion drinker than a person who buys the cheap stuff and drinks mass quantities every day.

My first drink of beer was when I was about 10 Years Old.
I met a boy who lived a couple of blocks away from my house and we went
to his home to play in his backyard.
His Mom was sitting on the back porch drinking a beer and offered Her Son
a drink from the bottle.
After he took a swig or two, the Mother asked me if I wanted to drink some too.
I took a sip from the bottle and didn't like the taste of it.
As a youngster I had a few other tries at trying to see if another Brand
of beer tasted better than what I recalled it being like when I took that first drink, but never liked the taste of any of them, so I never took a drink from a beer bottle (or glass) since.
When another boy told me we were old enough (16? or 16-1/2?) to buy
'near beer' and we could buy them at a beer joint, I told him "no thanks,
I don't care for the taste of the stuff".
I waited outside while he went in and drank one of them.
That's my experience.

Mead is a bit of an old school drink. It's also referred to as honey wine. Imagine a bunch of Vikings drinking and mead is what they are drinking.
It's one of the earlier and simpler concoctions, and not something that would

I've tried a lot of beers, including all "mainstream" ones, and a
lot of the "craft" (foo-foo) beers. To be honest, my favorite
beer is Miller High Life (the Champagne of Beers). A fairly close second is Pabst Blue Ribbon. Not kidding.
Some people think those are crap beers. I will say that I dislike nearly all of the "cheap" beers such as Natural Lite, Keystone, Schlitz, etc. Won't buy them, won't drink them. But the High
Life and the PBR, those taste like what a beer should be, to me.
We were broke in college - there was a whole industry of
sub-$3.50 12-packs, including Schaefer, Heidelberg, Schmidt,
Carling, and Red White and Blue - and we drank them all.
Indeed, I've tried all of those. There are a lot of "regional"
beers in that same class too, in other parts of the country. They
serve a purpose. :-)
PBR tastes a little soapy to me, but Miller High Life reminds me
pleasantly of a couple of dive bars in San Francisco I used to
frequent. It's definitely in a class by itself, cheap as some of
the bad beers, but better/different than Bud/Coors/etc.
Yep!
... A woman drove me to drink, and I never had the courtesy to thank her.

The best bar beer ever is in Bloom's Tavern on Potrero Hill in San
Francisco - they're 5 blocks away from the Anchor Brewery.
The neighborhood bars' Anchor Steam on tap tastes significantly
better than any other bar I know of - I'm assuming they get it
straight from the brewery and it never makes it into the supply
chain.
San Francisco bars also got Anchor's 1800's-style Spruce beers and
their holiday beers, as well as a barleywine that I didn't see much
elsewhere.

Depends on how frequent and if drinking is within a reasonable amount during the week. A couple drinks during the week doesn't make an alcoholic. A alcoholic is someone that lets alcohol tell the person they have to drink.

it's not the quantity of alcohol that defines an alcoholic. it's how it affe everything else.
With some people it's an altered state of consciousness. They become a different person and don't recall any of it. It mmakes it harder to admit h ing a problem if they don't recall how much they hurt people around them. I you have an alcoholic and want to eventually intervene, take video of when they are outside of their normal behavior.

It doesn't seem to do that for me as long as there is something like sauce or cheese with it; perhaps adding a little more of that to it. How about celery? Do you like celery?
Kinda limits what you'd enjoy eating as far as Chinese food for ya. I love rice, probably about any rice really. I've heard it's brain food... I don't know if that's true. ;)

Anchor Steam is an interesting company. They are pretty high tech in
that they have their own special strains of yeast, so right off the bat
it would be hard home brewers to nail the recipe down. I watched a
tech show that visited their facility, and the owner really liked to
brag and show off their lab and high powered microscopes to allow
others to peek at their happy little yeasts drinking up mash and
excreting alcohol.

I think it has some decent flavor, and enjoy eating it now and

"party foods" like dipping into humus, or cheese. I also like it
diced up small and mixed with tuna/mayo for a tuna salad sammich.

Perhaps you could make that for me.
You're looking at it from a normal, rational point of view. The serious alcoholics have either psychological or chemical problems in their brains that trigger the urge to drink, or tell them when to stop. It becomes an issue where it is no longer a casual activity, and becomes a physical
or emotional addiction.

Hello Rampage!
If you had a "belly" at 200lbs, then it was a rather small belly 'cuz the waist measurement is supposed to be at the belly-button level, not the hip bone (where most belts would gravitate).
I was nearly 200lbs at one point 2 years ago and the proper waist measurement was over 40in, but I was using 34" belts well below the belly button level.
Now I am closer to 175lbs, my post-secondary edu weight.
