When people talk about alcohol, they try to say that they drink "very little," otherwise their opponents will suspect they are algoholism.
------
Let's try to understand this topic.
People live in cities, villages, townships and individually.
1. People who live in cities, have good wages and all the comforts of life, but they are not satisfied with their jobs.
Therefore, it is normal for a city person to "have a little beer after work, then some strong alcohol on Friday"
-------
2. People who live in the village or hermits cannot afford alcohol "a little every day or on Friday", as they are busy with hard physical work.
These people, as a rule, get drunk rarely and very hard if they have finished serious work.
------
3. People who live in townships (midle, between City and Village), as a rule, are more susceptible to alcoholism, since they do not have a good salary and amenities, as in the city, and do not have serious jobs, as in the village.

About me. I am half Norwegian, half Finn on my paternal side, Udmurt on my maternal side.
I was born and raised in the USSR
. ----
I lived in the European part of the USSR:
- Russian Federation, Caucasus (Black Sea), Moldova, Ukraine, Ural, Karelia, Moscow ...
---
Besides..
I was in Europe: Bulgaria, Turkey, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, Holland, France.
---
I lived in America
- Florida, Miami and North Carolina, Jacksonville.
Therefore, I am sure that alcohol consumption is different in City and Village
This is for all countries!

1. Beer.
Personally, I don't like beer, because after beer you become a "bag of ****".
I want to sleep, but not work.
----
2. Wine.
I like red semi-sweet wine with barbecue or dry white wine with fish. Wine made in Bulgaria or Moldova.
I don't like French wines
----
3. Vodka.
I am a country person, so I can drink a lot of vodka with a snack.
I do this when I finish a big, serious work.
Just drinking vodka is not interesting, since there is no reason ...
Закуска под водку
Snack
-----
4. Cognac.
I love cognac and Cuban cigars. But this is very expensive.
----
5. Moonshine.
I love moonshine, but I have not drunk this drink for 20 years, since I have no friends who know how to make this drink.
Cocktail, mixing alcohol with juices or other alcohol ...
that's how Americans drink, so they get drunk quickly.
Russians never mix algogol!!!
We drink alcohol, then we eat a snack. The snack protects the stomach from the rapid penetration of alcohol, so a Russian can drink more than an American.
----
Besides..
Foreigners know 2 Russian cocktails:
- "ruff" (a mixture of beer with vodka)
- "Northern Lights" (a mixture of vodka with champagne or sparkling wine)
... But, In fact, these 2 cocktails are invented by alcoholics to get drunk faster.
