Alcoholic Beverages

Alcohol is a drug classified as a depressant , which means it has a depressing effect on the central nervous system and may cause slowed pulse & breathing rate, poor concentration, confusion, fatigue, impaired coordination, memory , judgement, respiratory depression and death.

As long it is a dry wine, both red and white wine contains little amounts of sugar. On average dry red or white wine will have around 1 to 3 grams of sugar per litre of wine.

typically, depending on the government the only laws forbidding the consumption of alcohol by nuns are religious doctrines. catholic nuns partaking in communion will drink wine as the symbol of christs blood along with bread being the symbol of his body.

Alcohol is considered hydrophobic because, despite having a polar hydroxyl (-OH) group that can form hydrogen bonds with water, it also contains a hydrophobic hydrocarbon tail. This nonpolar portion of the alcohol molecule makes it less soluble in water compared to fully polar substances. As a result, while small alcohols can mix with water to some extent, larger alcohols tend to exhibit hydrophobic characteristics, leading to limited solubility in aqueous environments.

White wine is a certain type of wine that are made from grapes such as pinot grigio, pinot noir, and others like them. It has a slightly more sour taste than red, and is much crisper and more refreshing. My favorite white wine is Vinho Verde from Twin Vines (http://www.jmftwinvines.com/about-twin-vines-wine.html) it's a sparkling white wine from Portugal and definitely something worth looking into.

Liters are way too much to fit in a little bottle. Most of the time the bottled water bottles will be about 250 ml.

Since crawfish has such a heavy, distinct taste to it, you'll probably want to go with something a bit on the lighter side, like a sparkling white wine. It'll gently add to the taste of the dish without mixing two heavy flavors into the palette. Check out Vinho Verde from Twin Vines (http://www.jmftwinvines.com/about-twin-vines-wine.html) that's my favorite kind of white wine.

You may purchase beer and/or wine in Texas at 7:00 am everyday except for Sundays when you are not allowed to purchase either until after the morning services are usually over with at 12:01 pm (Noon) We want you nice and sober for the sermon. After that's over you can get snockered.

The Mesopotamians have long been considered the first to make wine.

However, the unearthing of an ancient winery in Armenia would seem to challenge that assumption. The winery in Armenia was dated to approximately 6,000 years ago and is the oldest location found where wine appears to have been mass produced.

yes. He is the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy. He would have rituals with maenads and satyrs in which they would go into the forest and get drunk, dances around, find animals and children, tear them apart and eat their raw flesh, and do.... sexual things.

vintners :D :D :D

Although Mike's Hard Lemonade keeps its ingredient list a secret, it's quite probable that yeast plays a role in the creation of it because Mike's Hard Lemonade is an alcoholic malt beverage. All malt beverages are made from fermented grain and the fermentation process is accomplished with either yeast , bacteria or a combination of both.

The kind you like. There is no requirement that you drink a specific wine with any specific meal. While it is typically a red wine with read meats and white wines with fish and poultry, it is a guideline, not a mandate.

I would suggest something along the lines of a nice rose and split the difference!

No, It immediately enters the blood stream then is processed through your liver. If your liver is impaired it can take longer. The alcohol rate of absorption is also influenced by whether you started drinking on a full or empty stomach. An average weight man can drink approx. 1.5 ounces of alcohol and process it within an hour. An average weight woman 1ounce per hour. Water will help prevent dehydration while drinking which is the main cause of a hangover.

Yes, it does.

It all depends on the variety, vintage, temperature it has been stored in and the way it has been stored (upright or laying down).

Most people seem to think that red wine only gets better with age. And while this is true in some cases- it is not the case for every bottle of red wine. Some red wines are at their optimum drinking time a year or two after they have been bottled, whereas other wines can last 20 years or more. You'll learn lots about this if you visit different wineries - it all depends on the grapes and the climate.

The tricky thing is knowing when the wine is at its best drinking time. One of the easiest ways to find this out is on the label. Some, but not all wines, record the "cellaring" time. Some wines may say cellar for up to 5 years. This will mean that if the label is dated 2004, you can keep it and still enjoy it in 2009. But you would need to store it in a dark, cool place at around 13 degrees celcius.

If there is nothing on the label, think about investing $30 in a wine guide, like James Halliday wine companion, or maybe one of Stuart McGill's books, it will list most wines with their optimum drinking time.

Of course, the best way to find out if it is off or not is to pour it into a glass, have a good sniff and if you're still not sure, have a sip. You will tell the different if it is off. It is almost like a vinegar taste. Not pleasant.

yes, it is product of Australia that is fermented until all of the sugars are used i.e dry

Absolute alcohol (Or any ethanol mixture containing over 95.6% alcohol) will contain benzene, which is a highly toxic chemical created by attempting to further distill the alcohol (Now an azeotrope) to decrease the amount of water contained.

Denatured alcohol is also highly toxic because of the additives it has in it such as pyridine, methanol and naptha.

Brandy was first called aqua vitae, "water of life," but was later known as brandy. The latter term was derived from the Dutch brandewijn, meaning burnt (or distilled) wine.

Among the premium brands, probably Absolut or Grey Goose, perhaps Stolichnaya. But there are other less expensive brands that might sell better, since they are used in cocktails where it's hard to tell the difference.

black velvet/ but we called it irish mail
