Why do I sneeze a lot whenever I drink wine or beer?

Question

Whenever I drink any kind of beer or wine it always makes me sneeze. Why is this?

Answer 1

I have heard that wine sneezers are allergic to the sulfites in the wine, and that is what makes them sneeze.  

Answer 2

not sure about wine, but usually sneezing from soda/beer is the carbonation tickles your nose hairs.  possibly the alcohol does this too.

you could use nasal spray before you go drinking, or a nose hair trimmer... either one will probably reduce if not eliminate your sneezing.

Answer 3

Your probably allergic to the hops in the beer or the alcohol,or all of it.  

Answer 4

i do too and I've always wondered about that.  i think it's an allergic reaction.
