The abstinence thread

I wondering about going teetotal. I don't drink a lot, but if I'm out it'll be 2 or 3 pints. Over the last year or so I've found that most beers/lagers give me an instant hangover. Within 20 minutes of drinking a pint I've got a shitty headache. That, for me is the main reason I'm thinking about teetotal (although, I'm finding the bourbon is going down fine...)

There's only so much J2O you can drink before you feel sick...

same, especially real ale, 3 pints, and after an hour or so, my head is splitting and my emotional state becomes very somber.

1pint or maybe 2 over the course of 3 hours seems to be my limit.
