    I absolutely did not how to word this topic

    But i presume if you drank 6 budweisers instead of 6 quality german beers , would there be a noticable difference? I have never drunk budweiser so i do not know but that is what i am told?...or is 6 pints/bottles of any beer going to give you a hangover?

    Is Red win healthier than white wine?

    You will not get a hangover drinking vodka /whiskey? True or false...Not talking about mixing it with cola or anything


    Is a hangover a sign that you have drunk too much or that you have drunk too much poor quality alcohol?

    A hangover is a sign you've stopped drinking...should be avoided at all costs :D

    Cant be sure but I only ever had 2 hangovers in my life and I have drank some rank and some excellent beers and most dont seem to effect me (hangoverwise).

    A hangover is caused by dehydration and the conversion of the ethanol in the drink to acetaldehyde by your body.

    I have no idea why some drinks cause one and some don't though :p

    The worst hangover I ever had was from drinking Guinness, and I've drunk much more of other alcohol and have been fine. So I assume there's a little more to it.

    I've never head a headache the morning after drinking German beers. I've always had a headache after drinking Bud, Heino, Carlsberg etc. Some say its the chemicals in the drinks that cause it.

    Guinness doesn't give me headaches, it does give you a guarantee toilet experience!

    I have had a bit of hangover from too much liquor but thats probably from drinking too fast in a short space of time.
