For the record, I don't object to "I don't care for beer, wine or whisky; what doesn't taste like ***?". It's the "what can I get drunk on?" that tweaked my ponytail.

There's no other reason to drink alcohol. It tastes like piss. So why else would one drink other than to get drunk?
I've done the "drink to get drunk" thing, but have moved on from that to drinking things I genuinely enjoy the taste of; and believe me, there're plenty of good-tasting drinks out there. When I start to slide from "very mild buzz" to "starting to get tipsy", I back off. I like the taste, and enjoy the mellowness that is the earliest noticeable effect of the alcohol, but want no more than that.
