Default Do you drink a beer at lunch?

Over the years I have known many people who did just that. Went for lunch every day and had a beer (or two) with their lunch.

Personally I have never made a habit of it. I can't say I've never had a beer or alcoholic drink over lunch before, but it's just not something I've done very often.

On a very rare occasion I will, but like you, it's just not something I usually do!

Only if I'm on vacation in a country I can legally drink I probably wouldn't make a habit of it tho.

I guess the legal drinking age where you are is 21?

I think that's too much. It should be 18 everywhere.

Yea it is. I agree with that, it should be 18. If your old enough to go to war then your old enough to drink, responsibly.

Same here... I like wine but don't have it at lunch time. I usually eat lunch in my car, between two appointments anyway.

That's very true, and when I was 17 and in the military, nobody ever refused me a drink in the mess-hall that I paid dues to belong to even though the legal drinking age in Ontario at that time was 19.

But that's not even the first thing that comes to my mind about age limits on drinking. I thought first about all the alcohol abuse that goes on in colleges by young students who are under 21 in the USA.

If the legal drinking age in the states was 18 (like most of the rest of the world), do you think that alcohol related incidents would increase, or decrease? I think that they would significantly decrease.

Part of the appeal to drinking before the age of 21, is just the simple fact that one isn't supposed to be doing it in the first place. If the States, in general, made it legal for 18 year olds to drink liquor as well as beer, it may reduce some alcohol related incidents.

I can remember drinking way before I turned 21. Then when I turned 21, it was cool for awhile being able to get into clubs and bars, or going to a State store or beer distributor using my real ID. It was like for awhile, one wants to get carded simply for the fact you are actually legal. But, it wasn't long after I turned 21 that the thrill wore off and it became no big deal.

When you are 18, you can vote, buy cigarettes, be tried as an adult, go to war, apply for loans on your own, sign a lease, go to college or trade school, buy insurance, get a mortgage, get married, ... One is considered an adult. So an 18 year old can make these decisions and take responsibility for them, but the law states they aren't permitted to consume alcohol. Really doesn't make much sense.

Ditto here . not a huge fan of beer (with that said I got pretty drunk off beer last night .. LOL) .. I've never made it a habit to drink regularly with my meals. Wine once or twice a week that's about it

Nope.

I like beer but if I have even 1 at lunch, I'll feel really blah for the rest of the afternoon and end up fighting the urge to sleep. I save it for the wee hours...
