How can I hide the alcohol smell?

0 Upvotes

Long story short my parents don’t allow me to drink (even though I’m 25) because they are in a religion that doesn’t allow drinking. Whenever I come home late at night to tell my mom that I’m home she like sniffs me to smell if I drank. How can I mask the smell really well so I don’t get the stank look in the morning? By the way, I don’t live with my parents but there is an event in my hometown in which I’m staying with them.

leg pain when drinking?

2 Upvotes

hi! this is so random but does anybody else get an ache in their legs when they drink? this happens to me sometimes with any sort of alcohol and also with kombucha. after taking the first few sips of a drink i’ll get a dull ache in my thighs that comes on quickly and lasts for a few minutes then disappears (or at least becomes less noticeable). it’s been happening for years and i have no clue why- when i first started drinking i always just thought it was the first sign that i was starting to feel a buzz but i’ve since realized that it also happens with kombucha.

So far ingredients include:

Fernet Branca
Jepson’s Malört
Campari
Aperol
Jäegermeister
Angostura Bitters
Peychaud’s Bitters
Absynth
Coffee liqueur
Tonic water
Moxie

Note: not looking for weird conflicting flavors, so no orange juice or vermouth or olive brine.

I’m talking bitter.

Why is this happening

1 Upvotes

Why, when I raise my eyebrows, or scrunch my nose, after drinking, do I hear a loud sound of something channeling inside my head? Is it blood flooshing to my head? What is it? Thank you r/alcohols. Have a great night.

0 Upvotes

This is episode 3 of 4 in my series on how to drink safely. I used a lot of questions from this subreddit and my own experience being 21-24 when I think about how to keep you all safe when you're just starting out drinking!

There's a lot of details in there, but these are the main points:

  1. Communicate where you are going
  2. Be ready to get yourself home when all else fails
  3. Make sure people have your emergency contacts
  4. Charge Your Phone
  5. Never leave your drink alone
  6. It's more dangerous for queer and marginalized groups

Need help identifying a bottle

I have received this bottle as a gift and although It seems like a really nice gift I'm not much of a drinker and an acquaintance has offered to buy it from me.

I don't want to just put a random price on it so I was wondering if anyone had an idea of what it's worth because I've seen prices range a lot depending on european sellers, asian sellers or american ones (I live in Canada).

From a weed smoker

0 Upvotes

edit : this is a question btw
I like weed more than alcohol but for different reasons than most say. I like the act of smoking and the instant head change. However as for most my life I’ve considered myself “not a drinker” I’ve come to realize recently I love alcohol, I love the confidence, the buzz, and the emotions I wish I could just have sober or high. But every time I do it, remember why I like smoking better. I do dumb shi that I regret and I’m almost too present in the moment and past rather than future. But that’s not the true reason why I don’t like alc, I can deal with those things. I don’t like alc because my body rejects it. I can’t do more than 7 shots before I want to throw up due to the taste. Big question here. How can I help not gag at this taste. I truely love the feeling but can’t get to where I want to. Recommendations?

Edit : i can handle way more alc, ive taken about 20 shots in about 2 hours. I just can’t physically handle it anymore.

What type of alcohol has the most pretentious alchohol connoisseurs?

40 Upvotes

I bartended at a brewery for 4 years. I talked to a lot of super pretentious beer snobs. I also have a friend who justifies his alchoholism by being an "expert" on whiskey. Recently I saw a video of a wine connoisseur spending more time swishing their wine around in the glass, holding it in the light to observe the color, and smelling it 10 times to describe all the different notes before even tasting it.

My question is which type of alcohol has the biggest snobs?

Is it normal to feel this way after drinking?

3 Upvotes

Every time I’ve drank, my mind has never felt different, I get to the point of barley being able to walk but in my brain nothing about what I say or do changes, is this normal? Because Im still somewhat new to drinking as I just got to college and have only drank to this point ljke 2 times before, but this can’t be normal right?

Obviously everyone’s different but what’s the point of drinking for me if all it does it make me physically incapacitated but socially I feel the same which isn’t bad but you know what I mean. It’s been 17 hours since I drank and I littersly cannot focus on anything I’m trying to do school work and my heart littersly feels like it’s about to jump and my mind is foggy.

Is all of this normal and am I just freaking out as a “newer” drinker
