OK I was using the word as a generic description of all the various drinks which contain it. I’m just not keen on wines, beers etc any more. I’ve never imbibed nor enjoyed them all that much so a few years ago I just cut it to near zero. I still have a couple of bottles of malts I received when I turned fifty (26 years ago)I'm curious @Archev as 'alcohol' is a carrier of flavour or taste of the things it is mixed with. Pure ethanol of course does have a taste, but at 4 or 5 percent or thereabouts, say in beer taste is more about, the barley and hops. An alcopop tastes of nothing other than the pop and wines all have different tastes.
My work was servicing and repairing electric showers / water heaters and boilers all over the country. I just enjoyed, and still enjoy, driving so I developed a personal zero tolerance attitude to drinking.
