The Lordling's Tavern

Why is this here?

This blog is mostly here to document my experiments in homebrewing mead and play around with HTML/CSS. As mead is an alcoholic beverage, I wanted to do some due diligence for any underaged users who come across my site.

My thoughts on the lawful drinking age

It's bullshit that encourages teens to drink without supervision or guidance. I think it's dumb that the government thinks 18 year olds are old enough to sign up for the military, but not drink. The law is left over from a puritanical prohibition age, and I don't think you should be punished for the act of drinking on it's own. At the same time, alcohol is not an excuse for your actions while under the influence.

Alcohol is dangerous. It is a poison. A tasty poison, but a poison nontheless. People's brains don't stop developing until their mid to late 20's, and alcohol can have long lasting affects if misused. So, please drink in moderation. If you think you may have an addiction, please seek help.
