Can't say that I've had many alcoholic beverages at all, the past four decades or so. I'd estimate I typically consume somewhere between a quart and a half-gallon per year, some years even less.
These days, every once in awhile I've got a bottle of wine and/or a bottle of port opened, and actually it's rare that I can get through the whole bottle before it heads "south" a bit. Can't recall the last time I had enough to mess with my sleep or how I felt the next day, but it's been decades.
Of course, old injuries and aging are occasionally keeping me from having a good night's rest. More than a handful of "bad" (drinking) days ever did.
