Communion usually involves only a sip of wine. Some churches use nonalcoholic Grape Juice. It might not hurt to ask a priest how they handle the matter in their parish.
Any baptized Catholic who has received his/her First Holy Communion can receive communion under both species.
Yes. You are allowed to party and get drunk at a church. All the better for God to watch you.
.Catholic AnswerIt is never a sin to drink beer, as long as it is not to excess, then it would always be a sin. Church is a place to pray so I don't think one would have an opportunity to drink in a Church. If you have given up beer for something, or for a fast day then it would be a sin to drink it. Sunday has never been a fast day.
Yes, they are allowed to drink - but in moderation. Getting drunk is frowned upon. There is no prohibition in the Catholic Church against drinking alcohol.

I am assuming you mean how different is communion in a non-catholic church vs. Holy Communion in a Catholic Church? In that instance, Holy Communion in a Catholic Church is, literally, the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Savior; brought about through the direct intervention of the Holy Spirit working through the priest who pronounces the words of consecration. For a Catholic to receive Holy Communion in a state of grace confers more grace through fulfilling Our Blessed Lord's command to eat His Body and drink His Blood. For a non-Catholic or a Catholic in a state of mortal sin to receive Holy Communion is to eat condemnation as St. Paul points out "and this is why many of your are ill and dying"
A practicing catholic is one who regularly observes the standard Catholic sacraments such as attending mass and confession; as opposed to a person who is a member of the catholic church, but does not regularly observe the sacraments.
Merlot is a wine. Wine is generally drunk straight.
No. When you drink poison, you die from whether you are straight to the cemetery or heaven.
