Four or five a day and not getting drunk? Holy shit, that's a tolerance! If this isn't tongue-in-cheek, I say examine the list a little more closely.

That's typically less than a beer per hour. I get a buzz if they're IPAs or other high APV beers, but otherwise I just like the mellowing effects

Okay, you do you, but my father's career was as an AODA counselor, so I've heard a lot of stories, and "I just use it to relax" comes out of the mouths of alcoholics so often it's a cliché. There are other ways to relax without the long-term damage to one's health.
