Being the most popular alcoholic beverage in existence, beer is everywhere. Indeed, it is so easy to find that too many people drink irresponsibly.
Drink minimal quantities. If you find yourself drinking more than would be used in a social situation, alcoholism may be a lurking illness. You won't become addicted if you only drink small quantities and you can stop yourself.
Drink beer at home. Drinking at homeis likely the best way to drink responsibly. This will eliminate the danger associated with driving or getting into a confrontation with others.
Do not drive. If you've been drinking beer, you shouldn't drive. Not only may it be illegal, but also dangerous. You are much better off walking or asking someone for a ride.
If you have been drinking and you are out somewhere, you should catch a taxi ride or ask someone to take you home. Anyone, from a friend, to a taxi or a family member, will be glad to take you home. You should never drive if you've been drinking. This could not only endanger your life, but those of others as well.
Never leave your drink unattended in a public place. This is especially true of restaurants, bars and/or anywhere that alcohol is served. Anyone can drop a substance in a drink that's left unattended. If you get up to dance or go to the restroom, order a new glass of beer when you return. If you are just mingling, take your drink with you.
In the United States, an individual must be 21 years of age to purchase and/or legally consume beer. You will be asked to show a form of picture ID before you can buy alcohol. This can be in the form of a driver's license or other similar form of identification, which features a photo and birth date of the customer. Some US retailers do not allow the sale of alcohol before 12 pm on Sunday.
If you or someone you know suffer from symptoms of alcoholism, you should seek help in a timely manner. Alcoholism is a disease which requires professional care, and good treatment can lead to cure.
