Kusherb - as this is your first post, would you like to introduce yourself in our Your Story section, so that our members can get to know you?

also, you may not be familiar with forum use - it's always a good idea to do a search on the topic you want to discuss, before posting a new thread, just to check if there is already a thread on that issue. (click the Search button above & type in the relevant keyword).

we do have a few discussions on alcohol.. the most recent is here.. http://www.crohnsforum.com/showthread.php?t=12180&highlight=alcohol

however, as far as "recommending" which alcoholic drink is suitable for a Crohn's sufferer - i doubt if any of us would actually recommend any for another patient. alcohol is avoided by many of us as it has proved to cause more problems than it's worth... those of us who do drink alcohol have probably found one kind which is less severe than another - but like many things with Crohn's, what suits one does not necessarily suit another.

any suggestions given in this thread, or in fact throughout the forum, are just that - suggestions and/or experience - not recommendations.
