    Why is it that different types of alcoholic beverages will give you a different drunk feeling? Like, beer, wine, whiskey, tequila, rum, all different drunk feelings. What causes this? I don't drink often, but a friend of mine was explaining this to me, and he couldn't explain what caused it. Alcohol is alcohol, there are no other psychoactive ingredients in these drinks either.

    Thoughts?

    alcohol is alcohol, but the form in which it's bound chemically and unbound by your digestive system could be the cause? different chemicals are released when different compounds are broke down.

    Eh, I only really get drunk when I drink 80 proofs+, and they all give me a similar high.

    When I get drunk off beer, I wanna go out and do stupid shit.

    When I get drunk off liquor, I wanna sit at home, smoke a few cigarettes, smoke a bowl or two, and I usually end up pissing myself (no lie).

    though eh.. beer turns me into a blithering idiot, vodka makes me sad, whiskey makes me confident.

    Along with this being true different types of alcohol have different types of hangovers, as I'm sure most of you have noticed.

    I've only been mildly hungover once:hello:

    drinking gatorade after a night of drinking works wonders for rehydration.

    tequila lowers my standards and gets people naked.

    also

    beer before liquor and you've never been sicker
    liquor before beer and you're in the clear.

    funny how that works.

    liquor = crazy night

    beer = drunk but don't act drunk.

    Beer (well i prefer Cider) - Get drunker and drunker slurring words and struggling to stand up, might puke but ultimately it's not that bad.
    Whisky - I'm passing out at sometime before waking back up and grabbing another drink

    I drink an awful lot, and like to switch up what I drink a lo too. I've never noticed different types of drunk.

    However, I do get different hangovers.

    Beer = no hangover
    Liquor = mild headache, short duration
    Wine = medium to strong headache, mild nausea with high doses, and a somewhat long duration
