Forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean by "soft alcohol culture"?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I mean, the social interaction based on conversation in taberns, with a glass of beer or wine and "tapas" (light aparitive). Even familiar events (birthday partys, weddings...) are driven by low grade alcohol beverages.

Alcohol is classified as proved carcinogenic and main factor in hearth diseases and obesity.
