On my last post asking if anyone knew a way to drink beer while avoiding CHs, I got the impression most on this site don't drink or understand what it is to really enjoy a beer (ok, call me an alcoholic, whatever).
I had to give up beer this year after 15 years of casual drinking because of the headaches increasing in frequency and severity. I missed drinking beers so bad I started to try liquor. I really hate the taste of liquor.
Gin and Vodka gave me instant headaches, not as bad as beer, but still annoying enough to stop. I tried tequila (margaritas) a week ago and haven't had ANY reaction to date. Again, I hate the taste of liquor, but at least a couple margaritas in the evening are nice to wind down after a long day in lieu of a few beers.
I still miss beer and have hopes some day to reach a point that I am cluster free enough to taste a beer again. Imports, dark, amber, aaaaah, I can dream....
