ENJOY RESPONSIBLY

 

A CRAFT BEER TO SAVOUR, RESPONSIBLY

Please be mindful of why you are drinking, make sure it is at the right time, in the right place and for the right reasons.

Here we offer simple, practical ways for you to enjoy Affligem.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, EAT SOMETHING

Make sure you eat before you begin drinking, as eating will slow your absorption of alcohol and give you more time to enjoy your beer.

HAVE A GLASS OF WATER

A drink of water between alcoholic drinks and before bed helps to keep you hydrated, for a more enjoyable drinking experience.

DRINK THE RIGHT AMOUNT

There are guidelines to help you protect your health, 3 - 4 units for men and 2 - 3 units for women. Do remember that one drink does not always mean one unit, so choosing a smaller bottle or glass is a good idea.

DO A LITTLE PLANNING

Avoid unnecessary risk to others by planning how you will get home in advance.

REST IS GOOD

Make sure you are giving yourself a rest from alcohol, your liver then has time to recuperate and recover.

IF YOU’D LIKE TO REDUCE YOUR ALCOHOL INTAKE.

If you are drinking at home, have fewer alcoholic drinks in the fridge.

Notice how much you drink, it may be more than you realise.

Remember the positive effects of drinking less, such as a lower risk of longer-term illnesses like cancer, liver disease and stroke.

Speak to your friends and family, tell them you are trying to reduce the amount you drink and it’s likely they’ll give you extra support.
