Do most people who have a drinking problem always abuse beer/hard liquor or wine?

Question

Is it because beer/hard liquor is cheaper or is it because it has a higher alchohol content?

Answer 1

Alcohol abuse has nothing to do with cost of the drinks. Its just you see the low cost stuff more publicly.

Its a question of taste. I have known some of the worst beer drinker h**l raisers and some very refined people who could barely function on there scotch.

I believe that a true alcoholic will take any port in a storm though.

Answer 2

probably both

Answer 3

Rot gut booze is cheaper, ounce for ounce ::

A fifth of cheap vodka = about 10 drinks = $10US

6 pack cheap beer or = 6 drinks = $6US

Bottle cheap wine = 4 drinks = $6

But people who have drinking problems don't all go on the cheap.
