Our Founding Fathers drank like fish.
Washington threw a party with the signers of the Constitution and this was the bar tab.
Adams had a “half a gill” of hard cider every morning.

Yesterday, @FBIDirectorKash told me he'd take the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test if I did. Well, here's mine.
