Stella makes people aggressive?

Stella doesn't make you aggro unless you've no capacity. I've found that my tolerance for people who cannot handle their booze is rapidly waning to a point at which I can't be bothered drinking with them.

Neck a few cans of Tennant's Super, puts Stella into perspective. :)
 
Idiots make idiots aggressive. Nothing to do with Stella. It's the same few percent. Week in week out. It's the same people who are **** every day of the week. They just get marginally worse on alcohol as their few points of iq get even lower. People who get in fights should be locked up for 7 days, that I bet would teach most people. If it happened at an early enough age.
 
More likely to be the kind of people that drink Stella in the first place rather than any specific additive in the drink itself.
 
I used to drink Stella a lot for a few years, the aggressiveness is nonsense. Good for getting drunk and waking up with a banging hangover the next morning too.

How can it? the Alcohol is the same in all of them drinks other than quantity.

Are you really saying that you feel the same kind of drunk from all types of alcohol?

Lager is a different drunk to wine, which is different to vodka, which is different to whisky, etc.

Plus the hangovers can vary by type as well.
 
What you feel different drunk, wtf. Drunk is drunk. How long it takes to get drunk can depend on the drink, as factors like strength and fizz can alter absorption time.

Hangovers are different those aren't purely alcohol related and different types of drink have different toxins in them.

A brain filled with alohol and unable to function correctly, is just that.
If you feel different, it's a placebo.

We'll have to agree to disagree.

10 units of lager will, for me, be a very different kind of drunk to 10 units of vodka.
 
It doesn't make people any more aggressive than something else with the same amount of alcohol in it, I wouldn't say it's the best tasting larger but it is better than stuff like Fosters, Carling and Becks.

I agree. Straight vodka (I'm thinking Polish in a bar rather than Tesco Value in a park) is a sort of clean, fresh drunk, tequila is a mental drunk, champagne is a tipsy alert drunk and wine is my very best friend kind of drunk.
 
I also agree that the way I feel after drinking various drinks is different, as are the effects the following morning.

For instance, I can drink Budweiser, but I cant hack the insane headache the following day. I don't even have to get drunk on the stuff either I just get crazy headaches.

I can drink carling all night, and never suffer any ill effects the following day, bar a bit of a headache if I have had a bit too much.

I can drink Stella but it makes me sleepy. Hangover wise, no worse than normal.

If I drink Vodka I get lairy and become aggressive (I am not an aggressive person when drunk usually). I no longer drink Vodka in any volume other than the odd Mad Dog around my brothers house (his wife is Polish).

I like real ale, but if I drink old speckled hen I have a major bad mood issue the following day. I can be very snappy and short tempered for the first part of the day. I have never really known why. Pretty much all other ales I am fine with.

Cider makes me ill. If I get drunk on it, it feels like I have been poisoned the following morning. My kidneys hurt, and I get muscle and joint aches, constant thirst and a horrible headache. Really odd, but suffice to say I only have the odd drink of cider - like a Magners on ice for a refreshing summers day drink.

Red wine just makes me feel warm and fuzzy, and hangover no worse than usual.

White wine makes me feel horny and more amorous, but gives me a worse than normal bad head the following day.

I have learned what my limits are and what I can and cannot drink. I think it is a fallacious argument that different drinks do not effect people in different ways, when:

They are brewed or distilled differently
They use different base ingredients
They have different chemicals / additives mixed in during the process
They (in the case of lagers) have varying gas content
They are consumed in different volumes based on alcohol percentage
They have different alcohol percentages
They are consumed in different ways depending on the drink (IE Vodka mixed with Red Bull or Coke as opposed to Stella being consumed on its own)
They interact differently when mixed with either other alcoholic beverages or soft drinks. Some combinations may work better than others (for instance, you would never ever want to mix a cream based drink like Baileys with ANYTHING carbonated!)

Everyone saying they feel differently to different drinks is proving a point that it's state of mind.

I have seen a powerpoint on it's mainly placebo, unless I see a powerpoint saying otherwise I will accept that if you head into a drink with a set frame of mind about that particular drink, you will more than likely act upon your frame of mind

Yep, a powerpoint

No, I learned these lessons as a young man without having a pre defined frame of mind about it.

I learned my lessons from seeing how things effected me when I had never had them before.

Likewise, I don't think you can call the physical after effects the following morning 'frame of mind'.

Yeah man, I drink (to excess sometimes) but rarely/never get drunk. I never lose track of where I am or what I'm saying. OK well, once or twice ofc.

And as my gran says, if you get in a bad mood when you've been drinking, GO TO YOUR BED. :)
