I am currently drunk, having drunk whisky. I normally drink rum or wine, and tonight I find myself feeling 'different' to my other drunk selves. I also have a history of feeling 'different' when imbibing certain drinks e.g. jagermeister makes me a fiend.
I did a google to find info on studies about the different effects various alcohols may have. I found this:

>“The direct effects of alcohol are the same whether you drink wine, beer or spirits. There’s no evidence that different types of alcohol cause different mood states,” she says. Instead, it is what we think of alcoholic beverages, culturally, that affect our mood while drinking them.
That sounds logical though it is opposite to my experiences. To test this theory, shouldn't they intravenously inject subjects with various kinds of alcohol and monitor their states? This seems like a claim based on a logical theory but without medical evidence.
Also, what is your experience? Do different alcoholic drinks make you feel a different kind of 'drunk' to other alcoholic drinks?
