I drink roughly 2 bottles of Guinness FES a day which is better for you than normal beer.
Still isn't good for you though. I normally just drink with friends or at special events.

In my younger days I drank a lot socially, but I don't get much out of the bar/club scenes these days. I go through periods where I drink only once or twice a month.... other times, like now, I usually have a six pack or two of micro brew in the fridge and drink one or two beers each night after work. 
Are you talking about beers in american bottles, cans? It huge difference imo. I am only considered 1 beer if its half of litre. Other measurements are just not good enough. True manly beer is just half litre of more. If someone drik these funny small beers its just makes me say: 'meh' in my mind.

For me is a Social helper. It helps me be more talkative/outspoken.
Alcohol plays a much bigger role in my life then it should
Sometime when I eat with friends I take a glass of wine, an apéritif, or some other alcoholic beverage, but usually I don't drink alcohol.

I dont like to drink alcohol.. 
Alcohol has no part in my life
i guess i'm just too busy to take the time.
When you go out with friends you never grab a beer? Lame friends then. i guess i'm just too busy to take the time.

If your friends drink too much, that will become dangerous.
Be careful, booze is a poison.

Alcohol used to pay a big part in my life. I drank everyday it basically took over my life. Then I decided one day that enough was enough. I was tired of it controlling me. I put it down and haven't drank in 18 years.
I congratulate you for you will and stainght to stop drinking and stay away from it for 18 years.Most of the people,like me,stop only if they get very sick .

Honestly, you never had a drink for the past 18 years? I was also addicted to alcohol, before deciding to stop drinking it 5 years ago. After that, I might have had alcohol a maximum of 5 times (in 5 years).
The only time I ever really tried to get drunk was on my 16th birthday. Haven't really touched a drop since.

Congrats
Successfully quitting without 12 step programs is much more common than AA will ever tell you.
Most people just don't have the self-will or determination to quit and think they need help from others or AA or god etc, but they don't. It really is as simple as just stopping. Obviously it's not as easy as that for people who are alcoholics, but if you have the determination then it's all you need.
well no shit, but they just aren't able to stop. their mind makes them think that they absolutely need it. nothing wrong with needing help. i'm not sure if a support group would help me though.
Except they are. Your mind is strong enough to overcome your demons as much as it is weak enough to let you have them in the first place. You just need to make your mind up and stick to it. And I didn't say there was anything wrong with asking or using help, but you don't need them and I think people just use that as another crutch really.
