In a recent development that could have significant impacts on beer enthusiasts and the alcohol industry alike, President Joe Biden’s so-called “alcohol czar” has hinted at potential new guidance that could limit the recommended alcohol intake to just two beers per week.
The announcement has raised eyebrows across the nation, with many conservatives questioning the necessity and effectiveness of such a limitation.

As part of an ongoing campaign to promote responsible drinking, the Alcohol Control Board has been analyzing existing recommendations. It appears that the regime is considering a substantial reduction in the amount of alcohol it advises Americans to consume safely.
Currently, the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend up to one drink per day for women and up to two drinks per day for men. But the new proposal, as hinted by Biden’s appointee, could potentially change this long-standing guidance to just two beers per week.
Critics argue that such a dramatic reduction reflects an overreach of government authority and an intrusion into individuals’ personal lives. Many question whether the government should have any say in dictating personal choices related to legal behavior.
Some have also expressed concern about the impact these new guidelines could have on the brewing industry, especially small craft breweries that have already been struggling in recent times due to the government’s overreach during the alleged pandemic. Limiting the recommended consumption might further affect sales and the livelihoods of those working in the industry.

Proponents of the new guidelines, however, argue that the change is motivated by health concerns, but most remain silent on the poison we are fed that’s approved by the FDA and lines the aisles of our grocery stores.
Nevertheless, critics maintain that responsible drinking is a personal choice, and individuals should be trusted to make their own informed decisions about alcohol consumption. The suggestion of limiting alcohol intake to just two beers per week strikes many as a patronizing attempt to control the habits of American adults.
As of now, the proposed guidelines remain under consideration, and it’s unclear when or if they will be officially implemented. But the mere suggestion of such a drastic change in policy has already ignited strong reactions on both sides of the political spectrum.

Two drinks a week? That would last Nancy a half an hour.
I can’t believe that there are absolutely no comments. It says zero comments.
Why would they limit alcohol like this when they’ve made hard drugs legal in some states. And stopped arresting people for doing drugs or being under the influence of hard drugs in other states. Doesn’t make any sense.
hahaha I DONT Drink, I quit in 2015 but this ought do it for the NAZIs of the Reich.
After all its a pass time for those who need encouragement to belong to ANTIFA, BLM, DOING ABORTIONS, Those who are Lascivious Reprobates.
Nor can I.
My beer consumption will never be mandated.
According to the article, I am allowed to consume 100 ml/day.
GTFOOH…
This ridiculous recommendation may actually violate the FIRST AMENDMENT (Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion . . .”) Anyone who has ever attended a Jewish Seder on Passover knows two drinks isn’t enough.
“Many question whether the government should have any say in dictating personal choices related to legal behavior.”
“Question? Many question?” Lord! No, I’m not questioning anything. I’m ignoring the entire stooooopid assertion made here by the UN/WEF/WHO/ via the puppet Biden regime.
(I have a finger for them all. Just like the Hawaiians! Guess?)
Bidumb’s “booze czar” can poop in one hand and want in the other, and see which one fills up first, for all of me. Just like I won’t wear a silly mask for a virus that doesn’t exist, I won’t be doing this either. The very idea!
