How much alcohol is typically in your house?

    Just maybe 2 bottles of wine and some beer... we aren't big drinkers. Maybe when we have a bigger house one day we will have larger get togethers and more alcohol.

    I used to bartend so I try to keep a pretty well stocked bar at home so I can make "fancy" drinks if I feel like it. Then hubby has some nice scotch & whisky, plus a couple bottles of wine and some random beer.
    So, I guess a lot! But we don't drink that often so it lasts us long time.

    We usually have at least a 6-pack of beer and a few bottles of wine. We also have a few bottles of hard liquor and whiskeys. In our cool room we have about 8 or so good wines that we can't open for several years, and a case of wine.

    It's not like we go crazy but we appreciate good wine and beer and like to entertain!

    None, we should probably have some just so we're prepared next time we end up with guests, but typically neither of us drinks unless we're out with friends or out to dinner for a special occasion. We don't bother buying it for the house.

    We have a well stocked alcohol cupboard, plus some wine. We usually have beer, but since we gave up alcohol for Lent, we haven't been restocking.

    I have 2 bottles of champagne permanently lol; they were gifts and we don't really drink, and not champagne either!

    We have a lot but only really drink beer/wine. We host a couple of big parties at our house every year so we tend to accumulate a lot of hard alcohol that we rarely drink.

    We have a bar in our dining room, stocked with 12 bottles of wine (sometimes less), and all your typical bar stuff: whiskeys, scotch, dark rum, several bitters and mixers, etc.

    In the freezer we keep gin, pepper vodka (for bloody marys) and white rum for mojitos. In the fridge is always vermouth, and sometimes white wine.

    In our walk-in pantry we have a wine fridge for white wine and sparkling bottled water (very rarely a few beers will be on there) and we also have usually around a case of red wine in the pantry too. Wine is cheaper by the case and we have the space to store it.

    We have probably around a dozen bottles of wine, and usually a six pack or two of beer in the fridge. We don't drink that much, but we have random get togethers so it's nice to be prepared. DH and I almost never drink hard alcohol, but we do have a bottle of rum left over from when I made eggnog a couple years ago and a bottle of gin someone brought over once that has been taking up space in my fridge ever since. I wish whoever it was had taken it home...

    We have an amount, but it doesn't last long.

    We have a fully stocked liquor cabinet so we have all of the basics and we have different types of beer in the fridge and a wine fridge with a selection of white, red, sparkling and sometimes rose.

    usually just a couple bottle of wine and sometimes some beer as DH will buy a case and go through it very slowly.

    We have a decently stocked liquor cabinet: Whiskey, spiced rum, flavored rum, & vodka (2 flavors.) Most has been in there for a long time, the only ones we drink are whiskey (DH) and spiced rum (me.) We have several bottles of wine, a case of beer, and some random different kinds of beer leftover from a party. Decently stocked, but in reality we only drink about 1/3 of what we have.

    We entertain a lot more now that we have the house so we have a fully stocked bar with wine and beer as well. Usually we have more than we currently have but we gave up drinking for Lent (with a few exceptions) so we haven't restocked in awhile.

    We have beer, cider (for me), a bottle each of red and white, rum & blue curacao from a recent trip. We'll be buying a bottle of amaretto for amaretto sours this summer though. And maybe vodka for caesars.
