All I know is in my living in SA, these hombres y mujeres enjoy cerveza and various types of firewater. From my friends who have taught in Asia, they seem to dig it as well. It's a cultural norm far beyond just Whitey.
And I'm railing on the hike in booze prices because I've worn out keyboards pointing out their other flaws, weather incapable of holding the games when they said they would, the slave labor being forcibly held and dying to build stadiums, gay rights, woman's rights and all the other more serious stuff. I've already spent YEARS fuming about that.
Should never have been award the Cup and the moment stories about slave laborers dying came out combined with the reality of the games being in the (Northern Hemisphere) Winter should have pulled the plug.
Jacking up booze prices is just another log tossed into the dumpster fire.
