You won't think it so absurd when you have to cut out brewing because your liver's packed it in. I might be completely wrong here and hey, it's possible, but I believe a good break every now and then for your liver to recuperate should extend a drinking career by a couple years at least.
Alcohol-related cirrhosis is known to be underreported. However, about 44 percent of all deaths caused by cirrhosis in North America are reportedly alcohol related (7).
Up to 100 percent of heavy drinkers show evidence of fatty liver, an estimated 10 to 35 percent develop alcoholic hepatitis, and 10 to 20 percent develop cirrhosis (1).
Daily drinkers are at a higher risk of developing alcoholic cirrhosis than are binge drinkers (8). In general, patients with alcoholic cirrhosis have been drinking heavily for 10 to 20 years (8-10).
I often plan breaks.
