I like a tipple and enjoy happy hour at the end of the day. Consuming alcohol (for now) is a legal and centuries old tradition. We of the libertine persuasion simply find ourselves in an age of puritanism, which rears its ugly head from time to time.
The rules are quite clear. You can drink to a point and then must stop if you are to perform your job, legally and safely. If you can't do that, you need to either seek help, reach deep down into your own resolve to get a grip, or let the flying profession go.
I submit that maybe 90% of the fun in life is built around alcohol, but so are 90% of the problems. If you like to drink, you always need to be mindful that you don't come to like to drink too much, and endeavor to keep a handle on it.
I like to drink, but I've never had to worry about getting a breath test because I have always strictly adhered to the alcohol rules, which is all I allow anyone to ask of me in that regard. It's also all I demand of the other pilot, but I do demand it.
